OUR FORUM IS UP BUT WE ARE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF UPDATING AND FIXING THINGS. SOME THINGS WILL LOOK WEIRD AND/OR NOT BE CORRECT. YOUR PATIENCE IS APPRECIATED. We are not fully ready to answer questions in a timely manner as we are not officially open, but we will do our best.

Hey! Welcome back! 🙂
-
Interesting. Well, I certainly wouldn’t want to assume it is just a “new behavior”, but maybe he needs more time. Hopefully the antibiotics were long enough and the infection is gone. In the meantime, you could try putting a washable pee pad under his house.
-
Nothing for pain. The antibiotics were 7 days and finished yesterday. He has nuggets in his house at dinner time, veggies outside his house on his blanket where he sits around 4PM. His hay is in a rack that’s above his litter tray. The peeing outside was just random when it was happening, but not…
-
Yes, this is what I was alluding to. LOL Maybe it would be worth bonding one of them to Biscuits first and then seeing how things go with that arrangement for a while.
-
Hey RetroSquid! Good to see you! 🙂 I wonder if it would be possible to bond one of the girls with Biscuits, then down the road, try the trio again? Obviously there’s the risk of breaking the bond, but perhaps the girls just need some time apart and perhaps they will forget they hate each…
-
I swear girl-girl bonds are the hardest. It sounds like their hormones peaked in the spring (even spayed/neutered bunnies experience hormonal changes around this time of year) and then they just didn’t settle down again after that. Were you planning on keeping them as a trio? Or could you maybe just bond Biscuits to one…
-
Hmm… I’m wondering if some pain management might help. Has he been getting anything for that? How long is the antibiotic course supposed to be? You said he’s been on them for a week already, but sometimes these UTIs can be stubborn. Is he just eating pellets/veggies in his house? Or is he eating hay…
-
Hiya RetroSquid! It’s nice to see you! And hey, we all need to complain about something now and then. It’s all good. 😉
-
Hi, well. This is the first time I’ve been back here since our end of life decision for Daisy back in December 2021. After swearing we would never get buns again, it happened. We sort of stumbled into bun parenthood again last year. Meet mother and daughter. Cinnamon (3-4yo) and Hopper (2-3yo) We, somewhat foolishly,…
-
Long time since i’ve posted. House rabbit owner for 14 years now. Our current six-year-old bunny is litter trained, always has been. Occasionally, there’s an accident outside his house on the carpet, but rarely. He’s had maybe two suspected UTI before, many years ago, but recently he started weeing a fair amount outside of his…
-
I miss this place. After we lost Daisy and our home was bunless for the first time in a decade, visiting here was just… painful. I have been meaning to pop back a few times over the last 11 months, since we became bun-parents again, but something always seems to get in the way… I’m…
-
Have you tried taking bun outside to be brushed? I take one bun outside and place him on a little table. He behaves better this way; he’s super squirmy indoors and they have a hard time with him at the vet. Just have to make sure he doesn’t jump on my chest or head when…
-
I had them in a neutral area this morning and it seemed to go fine. I just tried having them back in their area together and she pretty quickly chased him. So they’re back to being separated. Do I need to rebond? Give it time? how should I proceed.
-
Ok, great! I just reintroduced them in a neutral space for about 30 minutes, and it went pretty well. My male (the one who got surgery) is still a little tense around her, but everyone generally seems a bit calmer. They hung out in the litter box together. I’ll still probably separate them today when…
-
I wouldn’t worry just yet. She is probably upset because he smells different. Keeping her separate temporarily is probably your best bet. You could try swapping some things to help “get rid of” the scent. Then try letting them see each other in a more neutral area to see how things go after that.
-
I’m not sure where this should go. I have a 10 year old lionhead who got dental filing yesterday. I brought his 8 year old lop bondmate with him to preserve the bond. Well, things were fine for a few hours back home, but come midnight I hear a noise. My lop is chasing my…
-
That’s a good idea Bam. Maybe just take the cardboard one away for a little while, then try reintroducing it later.
-
Yes, a roof is important to buns. Keeps them safe from raptor birds. If you could make some sort of roof for ot I think that’d help a great deal. I dont know how long they’d need to understand that there actually is no “intruder” (aka foster) occupying “their” cardboard house. Maybe if you remove…
-
They prefer the cardboard townhouse so much more than the wood one so I feel bad if I rid of the cardboard one but still so much poop. Can’t they figure out there’s no need for that as foster is long gone? I’ve been putting treats in the wood one but still, no bun hangs…
-
There are no nicks! Lol If he gets a cord, it is chewed into a million pieces. He very much likes to partake in the spicy hay!
