    Rabbit hemorrhagic disease

    Indoor sanctuary buns. Special needs and elders. We also have our trusted DVM visit our sanctuary home to vaccinate the crew. When RHVD2 was first talked about and with the safe vaccine, it made sense. Our furry family often have outdoor time in a safe guinea pig housing unit. We also...

    Paralyzed Baby Cottontail

    Truth regarding certain states having laws about illegal ownership of wildlife. Check that out. Good to note the person who came across a disabled squirrel and applied for a license. You don't want someone knocking on your door and removing the disabled bun to be euthanized. The case I...

    Paralyzed Baby Cottontail

    @4Bunjamin , one of the stories I knew from rehab was a less-than-releasable cottontail had to transition to a qualified licensed individual however the transition was accompanied with a Whole Lotta Red Tape and Paperwork. It was much less duress for the individual to state the disabled...

    Paralyzed Baby Cottontail

    @4Bunjamin , Are you able to get in touch with Dana Krempels? Contact her through Facebook or through University of Miami dot edu / She has written numerous articles on rabbit care. She may offer additional assistance on this. Cottontails and domestics are very dear to my heart so I commend...

    goodbye Commander Bun-Bun

    Always in our memory. We love our furry companions. I'm with you, @Nancy McClelland , I still miss the buns in our home who have passed away.

    Hi

    @hsandage , your boy has a nice playpen area and he's got two options of using which restroom corner to output. I try to give each of our sanctuary residents a hidey box yet again, some buns from our experiences will be A-OK laying in the open, others feel more at ease with a covering overhead...

    Hi

    We have probably taken in or cared for 50+ rescues, also. All get sp/eutered. Ditto on @Blue eyes input wrt only a few having meticulous box habits with marbles. Marking will occur. I walked the neighborhood keeping an eye on the two humans w/leashed dog who sniffed at each pole or tree...

    Ever heard your rabbit squeak at another rabbit to talk?

    We have an elder harlequin who makes the cutest little whimper sounds. He's perfectly healthy. Plenty of free roam time, and he just likes to verbalize. We had a n/male (btw, all our buns are sp/eutered), who routinely hummed, buzzed and circled his rescue dad's feet long after his hormones...

    Hay information.

    We purchased the compressed bale of Standlee from a nearby Farm & Fleet store. Our crew didn't like it. Smell, texture, all thumbs down. We try to find locally grown hay also. We also order quality hay from Rabbit Hole Hay (shipped through chewy dot com) and intermingle with local hay bales...

    Two (spay and neutered) Rabbits, approx. 3 years old and in good health. Salem, Oregon

    @The Bunny Room , we're on the same page. It's the babies that "fly off the shelves" vs. an established bonded pair who need to be rehomed. Yes, places get overwhelmed. Truly not enough homes and knowledgeable humans to welcome/accept a furry lagomorph family member for their entire...

    Two (spay and neutered) Rabbits, approx. 3 years old and in good health. Salem, Oregon

    @The Bunny Room , I am a regular browser on various Facebook forums for elderbuns, disabled buns, adoptable house buns, and reputable rescues. There are thousands who need dedicated homes, and the local shelters keep on receiving more surrenders. It is frustrating to see the quanity of...

    Two (spay and neutered) Rabbits, approx. 3 years old and in good health. Salem, Oregon

    Sorelle Saidman, aka Pipp, was a regular participant on RO when I first joined. You may want to reach out in case their dedicated group has resources or suggestions for finding the appropriate forever-home. I understand about shelters as not all screen meticulously. Some shelters may view...

    Two (spay and neutered) Rabbits, approx. 3 years old and in good health. Salem, Oregon

    @TheBunnyRoom, is Rabbit Advocates an option for your already sp/eutered duo? They melted my heart by all the pics you posted. I hope they find a devoted home. There are many instances of humans dumping their rabbits in the wild. It is essential to screen well and contact a vet when people...

    Head turn, not tilt

    Our special needs' hind-limb paralysis girl resists having her head turned. She favors only one side. She was diagnosed with degenerative neurological over a year ago. She's a hospice-care bun. @ta240 , I understand the quiet comment. Treasure each day with your senior boy.

    First time rabbit owner - Question about breed!

    A good home is what ANY kind or age of rabbit wishes for. I look forward to more photos and stories about your lucky adopted boy. Furry "baby", for sure. @Jessica Galbreath , glad he's indoors. Safest place to be from malicious humans, predators, parasites, and the weather.

    Female humping and biting

    I will have to check our Vet record notes on the rescue bun that came in and was deemed a hermaphrodite. This was the second case I heard of. Our 7 y.o. n/male boy started to gather hay in his mouth like he mighta wanted to ... build a nest? Dunno. Or he decided to play a game and carry...
