    Potential vet costs?

    My bun recently had bloat and was at the early stage of stasis. His emergency vet trip cost about $310, including x-ray but excluding critical care and bene-bac plus because I had both at home. There’s also the standby supplies which was put to use before we could get to the vet - simethicone...

    Should I be worried about my bun?

    Thank you for the advice! Sorry I saw it right after you posted but didn’t manage to reply. I called the vet’s emergency number and the person on the other line was just like oh I’m not sure what’s happening, but it doesn’t sound good and you can call a 24h animal hospital… 🤷🏼‍♀️ Bunny was...

    Should I be worried about my bun?

    Yes! Glad that I did. But I’m not sure if he’s going to make it through the night. He’s quite limp now and his ears are cold. I just fed him buprenorphine and I’m not sure if that’s the reason why he’s behaving like he’s sedated. He even bit his favourite treat in his mouth and stopped chewing...

    Should I be worried about my bun?

    Just an update: he’s gone to the vet and it is indeed stasis. Glad I gave him mylicon and pedialyte last night and this morning. He’s getting an injection now and the doctor prescribed him catlax, benebac plus, pain management medication and critical care. Any tips on how to feed the star...

    Should I be worried about my bun?

    Thank you! He didn't eat much hay last night and seem a bit lethargic this morning. Fed him some simethicone and gave him some pellets and cilantro to make sure he's at least eating something. The good thing is he's still passing out cecos this morning even though the shape isn't right. I think...

    Should I be worried about my bun?

    Just an update - I fed him 1cc of simethicone and some pedialyte, heard some rumbling from him and now he's running around the hay bag and back to his feisty self. Will monitor through the night. Thanks!

    Should I be worried about my bun?

    My bun hasn't been eating, drinking or pooping as much as usual today. He's still active, stretching and laying around like a happy bunny. I overslept today and only cleaned his litterbox at 10am instead of the usual 6am so I'm not too sure what time he started being like this. There were...

    6 weeks old rabbit with weird diarrheic-like poo

    Are you feeding him any hay? 6 weeks sounds too young to eat fresh herbs/vegetables...

    Hay storage!

    I use this for my rabbit’s hay and it stores very well. Even when I buy the 9lb box of Oxbow hay, I'm able to empty everything neatly into one bag and it's only about 3/4 full. It has a wide base so the bag of hay doesn't tumble over. Love it! MCleanPin Washable Laundry Bags...

    Recommendations for rabbit groomer?

    Yes! I came across them too! But it’s an hour drive away... so I’m trying to see if I can find anywhere nearer. Thanks so much for helping!

    Recommendations for rabbit groomer?

    Thanks for the advice! I trimmed my bunny’s nails last week, but would like to trim it a bit more frequently because his quick seems quite long. But I’m not keen on putting him under the stress especially since I only adopted him a month ago and he struggles when I try to trim his nails. I...

    Nail trimming

    I bunny burrito mine and have to sing and kiss his forehead nonstop while I trim. He runs away the moment I stop singing and kissing. If I'm lucky it takes me 1.5hrs to trim all 18 nails... would love to have it done at the vet/groomer if only there's one near me or within a 30mins drive.

    Is my bunny ok?

    @JBun thank you for the help and advice! My bunny is doing well now and all’s food and back to normal. No vegs and pellets for him for a while!

    Is my bunny ok?

    @BinkyLouie how old is your bunny? Not sure if it will help to ease the veg and pellets and get a new bag of hay? My bunny wasn't really eating the hay I gave so I bought a new pack of hay and he immediately started eating again.

    Is my bunny ok?

    The bunny’s gone on a full day of only Oxbow Timothy hay and water. He seems to be doing fine with his food and water intake. There’s still informed/semi formed cecals around but I guess that will take a few days to go away. His normal poop seems to have decreased a lot though (to probably about...

    Is my bunny ok?

    Thank you! She seems to be a bit picky about her hay these few days so I’ll go get a new pack of Oxbow Timothy and will put her on that. Hope it’ll help her!

    Is my bunny ok?

    I just adopted a 1-yr old dwarf two weeks ago. Today I noticed some small poop, a few double poop and lots of mushy cecotropes which he hasn’t eaten. Although he usually doesn’t eat all his cecotropes, I think the excess cecotropes today might be because he had a treat and a leaf of bok choy...
