    Rescued male bun seeking home, Northern California

    I'm so happy that Cosmo will be going to a great forever home like he deserves!! What a great organization Operation Roger is. This wouldn't have been possible without their dedication to getting Cosmo to Larry & Nancy.

    Rescued male bun seeking home, Northern California

    Thanks, but I did say Mini rex mix. ;) Although I'm not sure if he is even that, haha.

    Sore hocks

    Bag Balm does work wonders for sore hocks. I have a little container of it in my bunny grooming kit for my boy Dunkin. He is a dwarf mix and as he has gotten older he's developed sore hock problems. He has always been kept on linoleum without issue. It was highly suggested to me by other bunny...

    Rescued male bun seeking home, Northern California

    This is a bun I've been fostering. His name is Cosmo and he is an orange and white mini rex mix. Back in March I rescued him from a lady on Craigslist. She had become allergic and was giving him away for free. Worst of all, he was being keep in a glass aquarium! :( When I rescued him he was...

    Intense Stomach Gurgling - Help

    I'm so sorry. I know how scary these situations can be. It sounds like he has a build up of gas which is evident by the loud gurgling. This could be causing quite a bit of pain and discomfort. I know in your other thread you mentioned you were only giving him a drop or two of Simethicone because...

    How Much & How Often Can I Give Gas Relief Drops?

    Pediatric Simethicone 1cc (20mg/ml suspension) can be given orally as often as every hour for 3 hours and then 1cc every 3-8 hours. Source: http://www.rabbit.org/chapters/se-pennsylvania/GIStasis.htm Hope this helps and your bunny starts feeling better. I just went through Dunkin having his...

    Animal Planet supports rabbit abandonment???

    Is it true that ...

    I can confirm that it's true! I've got a bonded pair that are altered and have hardly any smell at all. They are also perfectly litter box trained. Yesterday I took in an unspayed 1 year old mini-lop and she is stinking up the place, despite being litter box trained. Going to her spayed ASAP...

    Resolved: 2 English Lop Rabbits need home or going to SPCA (Sacramento, CA)

    Great news! Randy at Trinkets Memorial Rabbit Sanctuary is taking them. :bunnydance: I'm transporting them to Modesto on Wednesday.

    Resolved: 2 English Lop Rabbits need home or going to SPCA (Sacramento, CA)

    So far I've got them on Craigslist, Facebook, Bunspace, Rabbitsonline.net, sent a msg to Randy Koga at Trinket's Memorial Rabbit Sanctuary and to Harvest Home. There is a local rescue, Friends of Unwanted Rabbits, that says they would have no trouble adopting them out if they can find fosters.

    Resolved: 2 English Lop Rabbits need home or going to SPCA (Sacramento, CA)

    Their owner moved across the country and couldn't bring them with her. The person who has been caring for them cannot any longer. They need more attention than they are getting. One male, one female. Neither are fixed, nor are they bonded. Both are young, around 1 year. The male is brown and...

    Bonding problems- how would you proceed?

    They need to work out who is the boss, but that cannot be done unless they are allowed to express their dominance. Instead of ending the session when there is a confrontation, try putting them at different ends of the enclosure or providing a distraction. Make sure to end sessions on a good...

    How many Cecals is not enough for a Baby

    I believe it's mostly a marketing ploy and relates to the difference between indigestible and digestible fiber. Crude fibre is the one you should look at. The Burgess Excel is a lot better in the fiber department than what you are currently feeding. It's a little high in protein, but honestly...

    How many Cecals is not enough for a Baby

    From the picture that does look like an excessive amount of uneaten cecals. One red flag I noticed is the food you are feeding is extremely low in fiber. At a minimum it should be 18% while the food you are feeding her is 9.7% in fiber. That is way low! Plain pellets are much healthier than...

    It's an 8 - 10 year commitment. So no, you aren't being too picky! ;) Keep looking until you find one that absolutely steals your heart.

    Do rabbits need a night light?

    Rabbits don't need a night light, but some may be more comfortable with one. For example, my two year old female Amber will have bouts of thumping during the night without one. My belief is she gets spooked by our cats walking around when there is no light in the room.

    thinking of getting a rabbit need advice

    That is a lot to go over, so I'm going to give you a link to a great rabbit care guide. It will answer all your questions and more. Regarding getting two rabbits vs one, a spayed/neutered bonded pair is a wonderful thing. There is nothing quite like bunny love. I wouldn't recommend just buying...

    It is just completely unnecessary and personally I think it looks ridiculous. I wouldn't do it to a dog either though. I prefer the animals own natural beauty, but again, that is just my own opinion.

    People SUCK! :grumpy: I really do hope it was a safe dye. I'm sooo happy she has found her forever home with you!
