Don't worry about her being too cold in air conditioning- rabbits do well in very cold weather, as long as they are dry and out of wind. Its heat that is bad for them. Your rabbit may be acting frantic about her food because you changed the pellets perhaps. And she may be change in her mood as...

Darker poo isn't necessarily better. I think the richer the diet the darker the poo. If they eat a lot of hay the poo will be a little bit lighter but that is ok because it means they are getting a lot of fiber. The poo in the photo looks healthy to me.

Do you think maybe they are teeth purring? Teeth purring is when they are happy they kind of chatter their teeth. Mine do it if I rub their cheeks.

If you think you might someday want to bond him with another bunny it would be a good idea. Also, not all vets have the specialized equipment for rabbits (like the tube that keeps there throat open during anesthesia that's made especially for rabbits) so it's important to get a vet that's rabbit...

There is a probiotic you can buy from the pet store that is good to give to help boost digestion called Ben-e-bac- I recommend that. Also, make sure your bun is well hydrated- rabbits can't digest if they become dehydrated. Also, sometimes pain keeps buns from eating so if your bunny could be...

If the eye has a clear watery discharge that could just be a blocked tear duct which usually clears up on its own. But if it is a cloudy discharge that could be an eye infection and the vet will probably give an eyedrop with antibiotics for that. The lazy foot to me is more of a worry. Lazy...

I think uneaten cecals are a sign of over eating or too much richness in the diet, too much protein. I would switch to a grass hay (which has more fiber and less protein) a grass hay like timothy or meadow hay would be good. And cut back the amount of pellets so that he actually runs out between...

Where I live I think I could get a vet to come to my house to give either pain meds or euthanize. I live in a place where there are lots of farms and if there is a farm vet in your location they have to always leave the practica and go to the horse or sheep or cow. So call some vet practices and...

I suggest giving them benebac probiotics. Because it might increase the good bacteria for digestion. Also I agree with more hay.

Just adding, rabbits don't usually get fleas. They do get mites but if they have mites- you would probably see some flakey skin or bald spots. Having a litter box for your rabbits with litter at the bottom and hay on top is a lot better for your rabbit. Keeping your rabbit in an Exercise pen it...

Mother rabbits stay away from the nest. In the wild they wait and wait until they feel its safe and sneak to go feed the babies for maybe two-three minutes once a day. And then they run away from the nest so as not to attract predators. Everyone who has babies for the first time always thinks...

Revolution will work for mites in rabbits. But if your rabbit has something else like ringworm (which is a fungus) then it won't work. It might work out cheapest to go to a vet because so you know for sure you are getting the right treatment. Make sure you shop around for a good rabbit savvy...

Does she drink water on her own? I she doesn't I would syringe feed some electrolyte water solution to hydrate her really well inbetween feedings. Intestines don't work unless well hydrated. —also I know someone who was treating a rabbit for a UTI because but it turned out she had uterine...

She's probably fine. But just watch her and if she sneezes check her nose just like you did. Unless your repeatedly see her sneezing like that for a couple of days I wouldn't worry.

Your bunny getting GI stasis might or might not be from something in the grass cuttings. My biggest advise for GI Stasis is always have a good small syringe and as soon as you notice your rabbit stops eating syringe electrolyte fluids to hydrate the bunny- 1-2 tablespoons depending on size of...

I just read through and realized that you said they were 1 month old. That's really young to be taken from the mother. I would make sure you have a really good rabbit pellet and your hay smells really fresh and also.... make sure the water is super clean. Like maybe even boil it to make sure...

Are you sure the built up poop is cecotrophes= and not mushy poop from an imbalance in the gut? Maybe feed her mostly hay, and less pellets and other greens and see it poo stops sticking to but. .... About putting to sleep, I am wondering the same things about my very old dog- she's getting...

I am just guessing from looking a pictures but I think it looks a bit like this. Its a burrowing mite. Very treatable with ivermectin. So get a good rabbit savvy vet, it says its hard to diagnose. You can read more about it here on medirabbit...

When you tried to introduce her to the rabbit did you try putting them in someplace like the shower or your car? I've had rabbits that would not get along in the floor of the room where there cages are but yet I could put them outside in a playpen and they got along. But too me if you've...
