    Flooring-can fleece make sore hocks worse?

    My buns chewed up my foam mats...I don't know why, but every single one got chewed...but it is an option. I would start with a small set to make sure that your bun doesn't chew them up. Good luck!!!

    How to stop rabbit biting and moving ex-pen

    Gelly, Does this happen when you are home only? Does it happen at a certain time of day? It could be a ploy for attention. Though you do not have rugs he can get around on the floor. You just need to watch him, they can learn to be on slick floors but they need to be watched closely. You...

    Flooring-can fleece make sore hocks worse?

    Horse stall mats it what I bought and then place the sheets over it. I got mine at a Tractor Store, built cages with nic grids to fit around the stall mat, throw the sheet over...ad they love them. If you want a bit more cushion you can put the fleece UNDER the sheet and the sheet over the...

    Lots of questions

    Did you vet check the rabbit's ears when you went in for the eye? It looks like wax - I don't see red either and would think not infection. However, if your vet didn't check the ears and it's the same side, the eye and ear are connected and it could be turning into an infection. I hope you...

    New Bunny Help

    Looks male to me. There is more of a "hole" than a "slot". I also don't see the bum hole and in males they are typically farther apart than with female. Best to check is to hold the rabbit on its back using one hand put the tail between your first and middle finger and with your thumb just...

    New bunny need advice

    Agree with Blue Eyes and would just add, talking. Talk to your bunny, say their name, what you are doing, good morning, do you want to come out...etc. Just so he gets used to your voice, you talking to him/interaction, etc. You can also lay next to the cage and talk, get them used to your...

    Butterscotch and Goose's Bunny Blog

    I've had 30 rabbits spayed/neutered. Most only got the pain med shot. There were a few where they provided 3 days of pain meds dosed out, once a day up to 3 days. They didn't need it. My rabbits took it easy for a day then were crazy again. Just keep an eye out and try not to let her jump...

    New to bonding

    When I adopted my rex for my mixed bun, the rescue told me one they groom EACH OTHER they would be considered bonded. My mix is a lover and he was grooming her within an hour of meeting. She did not reciprocate until about 4 days later. It took two days for her to flop next to him...they...

    Should I bring my bonded pair together if ones being put down?

    I didn't have a bonded pair - but one of the babies from a litter I had, had to be put down. When I come home with out the baby the mother just would look at me, like she knew something was wrong. I would pick her up and tell her her baby was not coming back, that I was sorry, that he was no...

    Talking with your bunny

    I LOVE talking to my buns! ;) I don't care if they understand or not...they are alive, have feelings, and I feel like they can understand me and understand how I feel when I am talking to them. :rolleyes: Some of them like to be talked to in baby talk, others seem to prefer that I just talk...

    Hello, I’m a total newbie

    If you decide a leash, try it at hoe, get your bun used to it. If you are unsure about the grass, don't take them at all! Too many risks. I always wanted to take ours but we bun proofed the back yard and we would let them out to run, eat grass, and binky there. It gives them some freedom...

    My female gave birth!

    In a few weeks you should move them from the second story of the cage. They will begin to wander out of the box between 10 - 13 weeks and you don't want them to fall. They don't really hope/walk/craw they jump all haphazard and they could really injure themselves if they were to hop out of the...

    Meet Lumina the diva bun

    My love baby keys, the stacking cups (I use the larger ones, put a small piece of treat inside so they will toss them around to get to them). Mine also like the cat plastic toys with the bells, baby rattle ball (but it has to be supervised as they can chew up the plastic parts). I've also...

    Aggressive when being held

    Try bribery! Use some freshies (lettuce, cilantro, whatever is her favorite) to get her to come to you and get in your lap. Try to get her in your lap before she gets the freshie/treat. DON'T pet her, DON'T touch her, just let her sit/jump in your lap, give the treat, say good girl and let...

    Something's wrong with my bunny (hasn't pooped/eaten hay all day). Vet trip needed?

    Lynsey, Your vet should have told you what to feed, how much, how often, when they directed you to continue to syringe feed. There has to be something going on with your rabbit is it will not eat on it's own. Hopefully he will turn and get better and begin to eat on his own. Did they provide...
