    Cat trees for bunnies

    the staples hold the carpet down, they're usually very tightly pounded in but I'd still run my hand (CAREFULLY so you don't get cut) over every square inch on every side. Keep in mind they don't expect cats to chew on the furniture like a lot of buns would so they probably aren't too careful...

    Cat trees for bunnies

    Based off of the cat furniture we've had, the rope is most likely either jute or sisal - both are supposed to be fine for rabbits to chew on. I would however be VERY careful about the staples, nails and screws on the entire thing all being set in tightly - usually just a screwdriver or hammer...

    Alternative ways to get a bunny to take critical care

    the point that I thought I made, but clearly didn't, was that a quality pellet mixed with the right consistency to either be syringe fed or lapped from a bowl, is probably (if not certainly) just as healthy (or healthier) as Critical Care. I guess you'll have to read the ingredients and decide...

    Alternative ways to get a bunny to take critical care

    I don't understand why anyone would use critical care or anything similar, especially with an already sick rabbit. Their digestive systems are so very sensitive, yet when they're sick we're supposed to give them something their gut biome is not already used to? That makes absolutely no sense to...

    What rabbit breed is least scared?

    Judging just from the two threads I've seen you start the last few days, I really don't think you should get any rabbits right now - it just does not seem like the right time in your life for this type of pet. Perhaps a cat would be more suitable to what you want/need out of a pet right now...

    Should I consider a second surgery for my girls?

    any chance of pointing me in the right direction so I may read up on those other studies? I've looked everywhere I can think of and I can't find anything other than anecdotal "evidence". Thanks in advance

    Should I consider a second surgery for my girls?

    I'd suggest researching exactly why you think rabbits have a high chance of developing uterine cancer. Unless I'm mistaken, the one study (that I assume most people are basing their belief in such an insanely high cancer risk for female buns) involved only several dozen rabbits (about 70 total I...

    Bunny cannot use fore or hind legs (RIP)

    It's always so horrible when we have to choose to hurt so that they can stop hurting

    Syringe Feeding Tips

    unfortunately I have WAY too much experience with syringe feeding - here's a few things I've learned over the last 15 years or so: 1) with most pets you simply MUST make the slurry smell like their regular food or treats that they are used to eating, or you're going to have a hard time 2) using...

    feeding rolled oats

    We've never had any issues feeding our rabbits rolled oats - sometimes as much as 1/4 cup at a time split up between 6 rabbits (which would equate to about 2 teaspoons for each bun, assuming they equally share the oats during their feeding frenzy). They weigh 9.5 to 14 pounds each. They are all...

    Best Vacuum to Clean Up Rabbit Hay?

    in my opinion they are all pretty darn equal in how well they work to pick up dry light debris such as hay (or rabbit poop for that matter)... so my suggestion would be to buy one you'll be more apt to actually like using. For us that's an upright which is lightweight, quiet as possible, easy to...

    Hi all - any suggestions on finding a skilled dental surgeon?

    Hi everyone - I'm hoping someone might have a suggestion or recommendation for a dental surgeon, preferably within a few hours of Memphis, TN. I have a 16 month old boy that has some elongated molar roots that need to be extracted. I've been to a few different local vets, but I'm having a very...

    Hi all - any suggestions on finding a skilled dental surgeon?

    Hi everyone - I recently moved just east of Memphis Tennessee and I have 6 bunnies. 2 girls (Daisy and Dottie are litter mates - TAMUKs) and 1 boy (Dozer - a New Zealand) are about 16 months old that I adopted when they were about 8 weeks old. I also have 3 "babies" (Annie, Amos and Angus from...
