Hello all, I am not sure if this is the right place to post as I am not a breeder, and I’ve been relatively quiet lately because I know there will be mixed opinions about my decision, but I decided after Piper’s false pregnancy that I wanted her to have one litter before getting her spayed. I...

She used to pee on anything soft, but now she won’t pee under that box! She does pee beside the box though, but only when the pee pad is there. Somehow she knows not to pee on the fleece blanket.

Does anyone have a bunny who doesn’t seem to want the litterbox with the hay? Piper isn’t spayed yet, so I know this is part of the issue, but nevertheless she does seem to be mostly litter trained for poo, but not for pee... and she also doesn’t seem to “go” when she is eating hay. I have had...

She seems to be completely over the nesting instincts now- she’s hopping in the nest box to eat, and is generally behaving completely differently. What a fascinating experience! SableSteel - I had never intended to have her get pregnant, we thought both our bunnies were girls, and then when we...

Well, we are on day 3 of Piper pulling fur. She is really dedicated to this! We started the bunny cam again to keep an eye on her. I’m starting to wonder if she is really pregnant, though I don’t see how that would be possible. Is there any way to tell the difference between a false pregnancy...

I have put a huge amount of hay out for her but she’s now grabbed an entire puppy pad and also a little pillow from another bed. Can I give her something else fluffy? I feel like she is super stressed out and that makes me sad!

I did end up putting in the nestbox because she seemed so frantic and was trying to make the litter box into a nest, and I felt bad for her! She’s now trying to move her entire bed into the nest box! It’s actually quite fascinating!

Ok, that sounds like a good plan! Thank you!

Hi all! So this morning I noticed some chunks of fur in Piper’s cage. I read that false pregnancy lasts 16-18 days, and today is day 17 from the day they got out together during the day (Skipper was neutered Feb 6, Piper is not yet spayed) I’m thinking this is a false pregnancy right? Do I...

I realized that was confusing after I posted it but yes, what JBun said! At about 2-3 weeks post neuter I tried letting them out together for veggies, and watched them closely. They would eat peacefully but as soon as the food was gone he would start sniffing at her behind so then I’d put one...

Thanks for the fast reply! I really don’t want to wait another month to have her spayed.. Spring Break is in two weeks and that’s when I’d like to book it, but I don’t want to risk it if there’s a chance she’s pregnant. My gut says she’s not, but I was sure she was before and she wasn’t, so what...

... and somehow my bunnies got out of their cages and spent the day together. The doe is not yet spayed. What are the chances she is pregnant? Their cages share a double door, so when one opens, they both open. I must not have latched it properly before work this morning so they had full...

Thanks for the reply majorv! We are at day 33 now and no babies, so I think she must not be pregnant.

Hey all! Sorry for all the posts lately, Piper is throwing me for a loop these days! So, as I mentioned in my other thread, Piper was wheezing and sneezing for a couple days, which seemed to be an obstruction that has nearly cleared. (She still sneezes a few times each day, but they are getting...

Great news today! Piper is no longer wheezing! She had a huge sneezing fit this morning and then she was chewing on something which is maybe gross, but I think whatever was stuck has moved on! She still has little sneezes but they are not as often. I’m super happy about this progress! She seems...

There were two instances they were together. The very first time would have been 31 days on Feb 13. Then, we separated them, but I mistakenly put a hidey house next to the wall that divided them, and lo and behold, the boy jumped the wall and they were together overnight, then we thought we...

I brought her in today just to be on the safe side. The vet thinks there might be something stuck in her nose or throat? He flushed her nose with saline and when she sneezed there was no discharge at all, so he doesn’t think it’s an infection. He says to wait a couple days and hopefully the...

I appreciate your thorough responses Jbun, thank you! I guess I didn’t scroll down far enough to see the Canadian vets, I’m going to look again because I should have a back up vet in place - we live in a very small town and our vet is amazing, but he is sometimes out of town at his other clinic...

Ok I have called the vet and he says to keep a close eye on her and since she’s still got a ton of energy and is eating and drinking like normal we will try wait to see if she has babies this weekend. If she seems uncomfortable I can bring her in at any point during the weekend. I’m worried it...
