Thanks for viewing the videos. Yes, those were the dew claws before the ER visit. They cut them very short.
-
I was able to view the videos and photo. He does look like his front paws are bothering him. Am I seeing his dewclaws in the still photo? It looks like something is protruding from each foot. If his dewclaws are long, then it’s possible he caught one or both on something. Them being very…

Thank you, LBJ10. We did take Max to the ER. While we were waiting, we noticed that his dewclaws were very long. The right one was longer than the left, and both were touching the floor. Ugh. I’m not sure how we missed them when clipping his nails, but considering their length, we clearly missed…

I’m sorry to hear Max isn’t doing well. It looks like you posted this yesterday. Were you able to take him to the vet? The first thing they are going to look for is some kind of injury to his front leg and shoulder. Only after ruling out injury would they move on to other…

<p class=”p2″>Max is 5 years old/free roam. This morning he didn’t come to the kitchen for breakfast so, we took the food to him & he ate it quickly. He tried to get into a bun but won’t bend his right leg. He tried to eat his cecotropes from the right side but couldn’t so,…

Reply To: What is this thing in my rabbit’s ear? Has anyone ever encountered this? - Bam 08/28/2026 05:18 PMI agree with auntie that earmites are very painful. They usually start deep in the ear and work their way up, so try to look down the ears with a flashlight. Ear mites typically cause thick crusts that are extremely painful to the touch. It’s not typical for fur mites either, they tend to be…

Reply To: What is this thing in my rabbit’s ear? Has anyone ever encountered this? - auntie 08/25/2026 01:15 PMBunnies are very sensitive and because of changes made in their diet or litter being used. my bunny had ear mites and he was scratching and when I would just gently pat his ear he would whimper in pain and flinch away. He also had a lot of black stuff in his ear. Have you…

Thank you for all the information! Definitely helps

The surrogate bunny has plastic beads in it. There is a warning on the site that says you may want to remove them prior to giving the surrogate to your bunny. If your bunny tends to chew up stuffed animals, then I would be cautious in giving him the surrogate that is on the BB…

I noticed while shopping on your store that you have a surrogate stuffed rabbit. I thought about getting it, however the only reason I did not is my 3 year old male lionhead attacks stuffed animals, he growls, and lunges at it. Is the surrogate rabbit you have in your store safe for chewing in…

Was you bun in office already being seen by vet when arrest happened? The success rates for anesthesia is ~46% in one study and theory is that when bun is already actively monitored, the success rate is much better. I think this just goes in line with how quickly a bun can deteriorate.

I don’t know any specifics on CPR in small animals or any animals for that matter, but one of my bunnies did successfully have CPR. She unfortunately was helped over the rainbow bridge later that day once we realised the issue was beyond treatment. But I thought I would chime in to say that it…

I’m sorry to hear about your bunny. It’s clear that you care about him very much. Sadly, this is something that we bunny owners sometimes have to face as our bunnies age. I understand what it’s like to not have a ton of money to throw at vet bills, so don’t feel bad about that.…

Poor prognosis for my boy, CT scan? Sorry, I don’t know if this is the right tag I just need to pour my heart out and ask for some well wishes. On the 30th midday my baby became uninterested in his food and treats. He’s nine and has stasis once a year, I believe he…

CPR success rates are pretty low for small animals. According to this study, the success rate is lower than that of dogs and cats. Compressions are done differently for small animals because their bodies are so small and anatomy different from humans. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC5627337/

Went to the vet today for a drop off and was presented with a CPR consent form, which is now part of their new process. This was just a drop off appointment for a check up (bun had teeth issues; first experience of a bun in 15yrs that needs trimming) and not for surgery. Also…

Thanks for sharing your experience, and sending positive vibes. I’m sorry you are going through this, but it’s great it was caught.
-
I’m very sorry. Thank you for informing others that this can happen! Hopefully there’s no spread and your girl will have many more years. You’re very observant, Charlie is certainly lucky to have such great humans. I agree that 6 years isn’t very old for a rabbit these days. Fingers so very crossed for her…
-
I’m sorry to hear about Charlie. Your poor girl has been through so much. 🙁 Although something like this isn’t common, it can happen. You hear about it happening with dogs that are spayed. It’s possible to miss something. I’m glad that the vet believes the surgery will be successful. Hopefully they can find the…

Well, after all my Charlie girl has been through…. Just 5 weeks ago tooth filing and an abscessed molar pulled, we are dealing with the unbelievable. She had 2 days of 12-14 hours without passing any stool then would go tons. Concerned about GI stasis which we have dealt with before, into vet we go…
