    Jim and Chester's Blog - The Cute fluffy babies!

    Oh wow, just reading this. I was reading your location as Indiana, not India! I can definitely understand your frustration now. Im nervous and the mucomyst and gentamycin because Im not too sure how young a bunny you can use them on. You cant go wrong with just sterile saline in the nebulizer...

    Viral cold - Incompetent Vet

    I would definitely use a humidifier if you have it, a vaporizer is even better and the eucalyptus should help (cant hurt). If your vet is willing to give rxs for you to do the nebulizer at home, ask about the combo of gentamycin, saline and mucomyst. You mix the three together in the...

    Viral cold - Incompetent Vet

    Here are some instructions I just found that are similar. I didnt use a drill for mine though, just traced the circle and cut it out with a utility knife. http://catnipkids.homestead.com/nebulizer.html

    Viral cold - Incompetent Vet

    Hi there I used a nebulizer on Max with a lot of success for his upper respiratory infection. Are there any other vets you can work with? You need someone willing to help you do this at home. It will be much cheaper for you and less stressful on your bunny. Some people build a mask using a...

    Pain indication= happiness?

    Does anyone know if you can get Bicillin over the counter in Cananda? Here, you can buy it at most farm/feed stores because it is manufactured for cattle. I buy a huge bottle for $12 and it lasts forever. I give the injections myself every other day.

    Animal Planet Investigates: Petland puppy mills

    Mike made me turn it off. I watched something last week on hoarders as well and was bawling. So sad..I cant believe people don't know this stuff. Im glad AP is getting the word out.

    Average price of spaying/neutering?

    Around here it's about $125-$150 for a spay and $75-$100 for a neuter, so I guess I'm lucky. For a while our humane society did spays for $75 but then stopped doing them. I was so bummed! Just be sure your vet is rabbit savvy. There is a list in the library of questions to ask. Im so nervous...

    Hay Questions

    Do you know any other rabbit owners near you? What we do sometimes is split a bale between a bunch of rabbit people so that its cheaper and we're not wasting hay. Shipping is expensive, but you can also get amazing hay from www.kmshayloft.com

    Hay

    I do a few different things. If it's a huge bale I usually set it on top of something like a bench with a tarp so it's off the ground and protected a little. If it's something I ordered from Kleenmama or Oxbow then I keep it in the huge cardboard box it came in with the top open. I also...

    Hay Questions

    I agree. I dont usually feed hay that is more than like 20% alfalfa and even that is high for mature rabbits. If it's in a pinch you can feed more alfalfa but I wouldn't do it long term. Try to find out how much alfalfa is in there. You can usually tell by looking at it because they don't look...

    (RESOLVED!!!!!) - REHOME: NJ/NY - BUCKLEY HAS A NEW HOME IN NY!!!

    BUCKLEY!! I remember this little guy and think about him often. Does anyone have the link to the original post? Im trying to remember how I heard about him.

    Elder arthritis?

    No problem, it's good that we can all help eachother through these things. Im interested if anyone has info on Adequan compared to Cosequin..is there a difference and is one more effective than the other for rabbits? Anyone who has used both? As far as home remedies, a lot of people on a...

    Pain indication= happiness?

    I use Metacam on my rabbits regularly with no side effects, as drugs go, it's very safe. She needs to be on some sort of pain medicine. I really dont understand the vet's decision to use Baytril. The bacteria may respond to Baytril in a culture but tht does not mean the drug is strong enough...

    Elder arthritis?

    I also wanted to mention that Cosequin can take up to 6-8 weeks to show improvement so if you try it and it doesnt help right away, dont lose hope.
