    Pain medicine

    He made it through the cat scan well and we have the results. Min-Min has a symphyseal fracture (incisor separation) to his lower jaw which is why his lower teeth looked misaligned. He also had two fracture lines in his left jaw bone (no broken back teeth). The doctor is not worried about the...

    Thank you, that’s very good to know. We dropped him off for the scan just now.

    Min-Min actually did fine without the pain medication. The vet did finally call us and said we could bring him in tomorrow morning. My dad doesn’t want the CT scan done because our bunny has improved a lot and he might die while being sedated for the scan. I feel like it needs to be done to see...

    My bun won’t eat hay

    I don’t know if this will help you at all but maybe your bunny hates the flavor of the critical care you tried giving her. Due to a recent incident with our bunny, we have to syringe feed him critical care. The vet gave us “apple-banana” flavor and he outright loathed it and struggled each...

    Took a photo of his teeth today though it looks a bit out of focus. I think it looks closer to normal

    Pain medicine

    It was really bad with snow this morning so we cancelled the ct scan and hope to do it tomorrow instead. Unfortunately he is out of pain medication and only the exotic doctor can allow us to get more. (I guess technicians can’t renew prescriptions?) Or tell us if the ct scan will work tomorrow...

    We switched his critical care to papaya flavored. He doesn’t hate it as much but only had 3/4 of a syringe full. Thank goodness he doesn’t mind the taste of the oral medicine. We’ve just been feeding him as many random other things we can to see if he’ll eat those instead. So far it’s pretty...

    Update: Our bunny is so stubborn. We took your advice and softened more pellets with warm water. He refused to go back and eat them till they were completely dry again😅

    Thank you! We’ll make sure to do that!

    Pain medicine

    He does not like critical care but we got him to have about two syringe fulls this morning, although he spit out some. Vet instructions were to mix one table spoon of critical care with two table spoons of water and feed him as much of it as we can, every 8 hours. In the following hours today...

    The vets were able to get him to syringe eat a few hours before we arrived to pick him up. And gave us four doses of pain medicine to get him through till possibly Tuesday. There is a giant snowstorm forecasted for Monday (possibly 10inches) so we may make the scan Tuesday instead. On the drive...

    Pain medicine

    The doctor called because he found out they are too short staffed and cannot due the CT scan tomorrow. Apparently the doctor who was going to check him was exposed to covid. The hospital called a bunch of other hospitals around the area and none can do the scan either since they’re all booked...

    Pain medicine

    He has a broken jaw and is being kept overnight for a cat scan in the morning. From there the doctors said they’ll figure out whether he needs surgery or can recover at home with pain meds and mush food. So glad we finally found an emergency vet that would look at him.

    Thank you, we are currently calling a bunch of emergency vets. We’re calling one in Massachusetts right now because apparently the ones in NH ‘aren’t equipped to deal with bunnies.’ Update: My dad was able to book an appointment so we’re leaving now.

    Pain medicine

    Update: We called a bunch of vets and each one referred us to someone else or said they were booked out till February. Does anyone know any foods we can give him in the meantime? He takes nibbles here and there of things but it definitely isn’t enough. He ate about half a strand of hay trying...

    Pain medicine

    I found out this morning that my dad accidentally stepped on my rabbit. Min-Min squiggled away before my dad put his full weight down but I think he knocked his chin on the ground and has tooth pain. One of his bottom teeth is slightly loose and pushed forward a little. He is very gingerly...

    Can you feed rabbits culantro?

    I looked it up on google and it said another name for culantro is serrated coriander. I think culantro and cilantro may be part of the same type of family

    Rabbit is very messy

    I have a two cookie grates on pegs that are elevated over a puppy pad for my bunny’s litter area. The grates rest on the kennel’s tray and stay about 3/4 of an inch above the bottom. I clean his cage about twice a week and do a deep cleaning every 2-4 times depending on how dirty the grates get...

    Trick Training

    My bunny followed a laser pointer. He didn’t follow it during the daytime (there were too many other things to see) but at night when it was dark everywhere he kept following it around the room wherever I pointed it. You probably wouldn’t be able to use one for training but it’s funny watching...

    Rate My Enclosure : Please be -Very- Critical

    I agree with @John Wick. The platform by the oxbow Timothy tunnel in particular is a place your bunnies may use to hop the pen, though I think the bed on the other side is low enough to deter them.
