A couple nights ago while petting him I noticed a lump about half an inch in diameter under my bunny’s chin beneath the skin. It was moveable, not connected to bone or anything, and not visible. I panicked and called the emergency vet office I trust, and they said it wasn’t an emergency and to...

update: I did take him to the vet last night because the gag-sneezing lasted an hour and a half. They said everything was normal and to just watch for labored breathing. It’s now been 24 hours and he’s doing fine!

My bunny had a short bout of stasis earlier in the week and has to have a few meds. About 40 minutes ago I gave him about 1 mL of metoclopramide and .1 mL of Cisapride holding him kind of upright in my arms and he struggled a little. When I put him down he gagged, and now about every 5-10...

Thanks! :) he is very cute but he’s got some sass as well haha

Thank you!

Thank you! He’s almost a year and a half old now, so I don’t know if his coat will change much more, but he is shedding quite a bit so I’m curious to see what it’s like once that’s done.

I just adopted this little guy a couple days ago, and I’m curious about his coloring. Is he a broken tort?

I’m so sorry. My bunny passed away in my arms last year, and he was only three. I still cry for him. I’m sure you took amazing care of your sweet bun; sometimes there are things beyond our control.

I’m so sorry. It is so painful to lose a pet; I just lost my bunny in June. You gave Lawrence the best life possible, and the grief you feel proves how much he was loved.

What a handsome guy, and so lucky to have such a loving family that gave him a long and happy life. Rest in peace, Reuben 💙 and praying for peace for you and your family during this difficult time.

Thank you so much to everyone for your kind words. It’s been two weeks, and I still miss him so much, but I’m starting to find comfort in the good life he lived and the hope that I may see him again. I know I will want another bunny, but I’m going to wait some time. Louie was a super chill and...

I lost Louie early yesterday morning. My heart is absolutely shattered; he was only three years old. I just need to get out everything that happened. I noticed Sunday evening he wasn’t eating and was hunched, but it looked like he had recent poop in the litter box. I gave him simethicone and...

My bun used to flip his bowl all the time; it drove me crazy! I got one of those bowls that attaches to the side of the cage, and it works well. Sometimes I use a water bottle as well in case his water bowl gets dirty, but with the bottle alone I felt he wasn’t getting enough water.

My bun also used to flip his water. It drove me crazy! Any droppings on the floor would disintegrate, and it would be such a mess. I also use a twist on bowl that attaches to the cage, but make sure it’s one that’s easy to remove for refilling twice a day. In the store, there were some that...

I have a two-year-old mini lop, Louie, who I’ve had since he was 10 weeks. He lives a nice little life with a decent size cage and running around my room when I’m there, and he loves getting pets and treats. He flops all the time, so he seems pretty content to me. He’s really easy going; I’ve...

Just putting this out there for anyone who has a similar problem: at the pet store yesterday I stumbled upon these Oxbow Papaya Support tabs. They contain both papaya and pineapple, which are both supposed to be great for breaking down hair in a rabbit’s tummy. Louie loves them, and I plan on...

Good to know it’s so safe! The lowest dosage I’ve heard was 0.3, so since I wasn’t sure how easily rabbits handle it I was playing it safe. Now I know for next time :)

Thank you all for the great information! I was wondering about the effectiveness of simethicone for hair-related blockages. Thankfully when I got up in the middle of the night to check on him, he started munching on the greens I left out for him. This morning there were poos in his litter box...

The goofball just flopped, so he must not be that uncomfortable? He can’t seem to sit still; he keeps getting up to groom. Thoughts?

My bun ate his whole dinner (small amount of pellets) as normal about 1.5-2 hours ago. Just now when I looked at him again, he was pressing his stomach into the floor. I offered him two kinds of treats, which he sniffed but wouldn’t eat. I noticed a couple poos connected with hair in his litter...
