That’s a good idea Bam! And you actually reminded me of something. Do they still make those potpourri crock pots? They were meant to melt wax potpourri. Anyway, I had one many years ago that had a decent sized bowl (i.e. it was shaped like a mini crock pot). I was able to add water…

I have only made potpourri with flowers and leaves from my garden. It’s too late in the year for roses now, and store bought roses are not really grown for fragrance, just for looks. I think any herbs would do great. Rosemary, mint, lavender, chamomille, sage, lemon balm, herb fennel. Some herbs dont have much…

Trying to bond NewBoyBun to my resident GirlBun and SeniorBoyBun. SeniorBoyBun is good with everybun and easily got along as usual. So, for the first time, I’m mostly just working with bonding the other two, rather than trying a trio because I don’t want to stress SeniorBoyBun out. GirlBun is apparently super territorial and it’s…

Ha, I actually have no idea! Don’t even remember which one it was. I only saw it because the vet was examining him and I was on the other side of the table so I saw the underside of his paw but his was much more red than your buns’. I was alarmed because thought…

Bunnies will naturally develop wear spots on their feet over time. We often think of their back feet (hocks), but you can end up with exposed front paw pads as well. They will often develop a callous in these areas. As long as it isn’t inflamed, red, cracking, bleeding, etc. then it isn’t anything to…

Are they actually different from the others or just that you notice the two? Reason I ask is because I noticed one on one of my buns before and asked my vet, who said it wasn’t an issue. They are normally like that but usually their fur just covers it so one doesn’t notice it.…

I couldn’t pin the cage image for a reason, but it’s about 1,5 m X 1,5 M, the “roof” of it is covered by tiles, anti slippery flooring and spaces were she can rest her foot. It has two bottle of water, a bathroom separated and a hay space! It’s were i place her while…

Hi everyone! I have a two years old lop bunny called Misso and, recently, while grooming her fur, i noticed that two beans (cushions) of her front paw were kinda red and felt a bit rough by the touch. By the day, she spent it free roaming my room and at night, she spent it…

Thanks! I have used some just in my room and left the rest of the house clear, I reapply every couple days then will likely stop completely in a few weeks when the season ends… For a year anyway.

It does sound the same as what happened to one of your buns! She also had to stay in overnight and Glenn stayed with her at the hospital overnight, I do think he helped her! She actually chewed through her IV after a little while so they switched to frequent subq fluids or something similar.…

It does sound like a partial blockage near where the stomach connects to the intestine. That’s the most common location for a partial blockage. (One of my buns had that. Vet treated with spasmolytics and iv fluids and pain meds. He had to stay over at the animal hospital). With a partial blockage like that,…

I still haven’t really found the cause, some signs are pointing to stress (she’s sensitive to even minor things that wouldn’t really bother other buns too much) and fur ingestion, she has long hair and does all the grooming for herself and Glenn (we do trim her) . I may just have to except that…

Thank you for your response! She’s been munching on Oxbow hay and even completely chewed, ate, and swallowed a whole willow stick without leaving crumbs but just won’t have it with her regular hay. I ordered her a new batch so hopefully it’s just that 🙁 I don’t mind throwing stuff out , just want…

So she won’t eat any hay? Or just THIS hay? Usually when a bunny stops eating hay (but may still eat other things), we assume some kind of dental issue. Your vet may have said her teeth looked “perfect”, but it’s really hard to tell if they don’t do a thorough exam. That being said,…

Hi! I recently ordered some airtight boxes for my hay from chewy.com! They have a lot of different sizes and they have wheels so you can roll them around. I don’t know what country your in, so I don’t know which ones would ship to you but there are quite a few options and a…

Eclipse has always been a big hay eater, she loves eating it 24/7. I always order 3rd cutting from Small Pet Select, or sometimes their premium soft version and she loves both types. However, since I got last week’s shipment she has stopped touching it. I’ve gone completely pellet-free for her diet as per her…
