    Bonding - never had this before...

    Hi All, We have a female Holland Lop X Mini Rex who is unspayed (she can't be spayed her pre-spay blood work indicated she wouldn't tolerate anesthesia) and a neutered Holland Lop male. We've had about 10 sessions so far both in neutral territory and just in the living room where both buns...

    Eastern Cottonwood - Populus Deltoides Safe?

    Thanks! I'm not planning on giving them the fluff, but if there is some that I missed I just wanted to make sure it's safe. I check with our exotic vet who also has several pet bunnies and she said the branches and everything on them is fine, fresh or dried. :)

    Eastern Cottonwood - Populus Deltoides Safe?

    Hi All, I was able to identify a few trees near our home as Populus Deltoides and our cities Arbortorium was able to confirm the tree's age (all planted 22 years ago) and that it has never been treated or sprayed and is healthy. Now my question is, can I give this to my bunnies to nibble on...

    Bonding Neutered Male w/ Unspayed Femaled

    Hi all, Does anyone have experience in bonding a neutered male with an unspayed female? I have bonded fixed rabbits 4 times, so I'm comfortable with bonding in general. I have an unspayed female who has some health issues and is very small so our vet said he would prefer not to spay her and...

    Make a rabbit secure indoors

    Maybe reduce his space to an xpen and then slowly expand? It might make him feel more secure as he adjusts to loosing his eye sight. Also be sure to say something to him when you enter the room so he know you're coming? and just move slowly if you move toward him while speaking?

    Bunny Poop help?

    The vet sent us a photo of Peter plus his xrays. The red circles on the xray are abnormalities. The larges one is the mass in his stomach they are concerned about, you can see how much less visible it is in the 2nd xray. It's still there but not nearly as dense so the vet thinks he'll pull...

    Comparing food pellets of two different bags

    Unfortunately, animals love things that are bad for them lol. We have to keep all chocolate in the house in the cupboard above the fridge as he'll sniff it out and open drawers etc to find it and chocolate can kill dogs! I think companies create these colorful products because as humans we see...

    Comparing food pellets of two different bags

    Let me preface this by saying I don't know much about pellet nutrition nor did I ever look into it until our vet brought it up. On our first vet visit our vet asked what we were feeding (oxbow) and she said she's seen many complications from rabbit food that contains soy, that plus the fact...

    Bunny Poop help?

    If anyone is interested. We took Peter to the vet last week, the vet felt a considerably sized lump in his stomach but as he was eating fresh veggies with gusto she had hoped that with some hay and lots of water it would break up in his stomach and he would be able to pass it naturally. We...

    Anyone have a rabbit that is NOT spayed/neutered, and HAPPY the way they are?

    We have a neutered male (came to us neutered) and an unspayed female. Our female is the most loving and affectionate bunny I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. She's 1 1/2 years old and has excellent litter habits and zero aggression or destructive behaviors. The only time she does anything...

    Behavior modification, Punishment, Correction, Negative Reinforcement, Choices, Consequences, Safety

    One of my rabbits has a 100% (so far for 2 years) reliable come. She's super food motivated so I initially did it with treats, then just rustling a treat bag and now she just does is when she's called. She also freezes when I do a 'pssst' sound and won't move for a solid 10 seconds. I've used it...

    My baby bunny broke his right back leg!

    Hi Avanessa, Take Ferrero to the vet, he might need an x-ray. I noticed on your profile that you are in the Philippines. Here is a google doc of rabbit savvy vets in the Philippines, hopefully, one is close to you. This is by no means a complete list, there are likely other rabbit vets in the...

    Bunny Poop help?

    Rabbit not himself

    Keep monitoring his food intake and fecal droppings, if it gets worse take him to the vet. You know your bunny best so trust your gut!

    Rabbit not himself

    Is your rabbit still eating, drinking, and pooping like normal? What breed is your bunny? I have a holland lop x mini rex and her ears drooped until she was about one, she could only raise them a little. Now she has full control and can they stick straight up or droop depending on what she's...

    New bunny

    Start with pre bonding them. I usually like to really take my time bonding rabbits and I don’t usually stress bond them (though I know a lot of people who do this successfully) given that you have him and your 1st bun can’t ‘choose’her mate I would start with putting their enclosures / cages...

    Make a rabbit secure indoors

    I don’t think there is anything you can do to prevent him from being startled by unfamiliar sounds and movements. Over time any sounds, or people that are consistent he will start to get used to. In the mean time make sure he has a safe space he can retreat to. My rabbit is free roam but we have...

    Bunny Poop help?

    I’ve only had him a week so they are not bonded but I do plan to bond them after my other bunny is spayed. I’m not prebonding or anything yet, I want to get his eating habits back to normal before making additional changes to his environment etc. I’ll try the apple juice and a haycube :) thanks.
