illness

My mum had to grab my 7 month old rabbit today as it escaped and she panicked. I usually transport my rabbit in a carrier as he hates being picked up, i even let him go in the carrier on his own time table and i don’t pressure him in. I wasn’t there so i don’t know how hard she grabbed him but...

My mini lop female who is hopfully 1week pregnant is loosing hair on her front feet (well just one at the moment), the skin to me doesn't look sore or anything, do i need to worry about her? she is eating and drinking as normal and hasn't shown any other signs of anything bad, but i have never...

Hello, I wanted to come on here and see if anyone has any thought on my bunnies situation. I noticed her limping (not putting weight on her back foot) two days ago. She was acting completely normal and happy before that. We took her to the vet last night; and see had an X ray done. The vet said...

Hello So my 7-year old dwarf rabbit Dennis has experienced two times that right after he ate pellets that slime was coming out of his nose and he was very scared and pulling his head and opening his mouth. At one point he was running around and then lay down for hours till it stopped. After he...

I noticed yesterday that my 4-month-old male holland lop, Bumble, had a sort of sneeze attack & I was worried so I googled it & apparently sneezing is bad. Another sign would be he had a damp nose (but it did seem runny last night) & little crusty eye boogers. But he still has a hunger & eats &...

Ok, I'm stumped. My rabbit was ill nearly two weeks ago. He ate a bunch of graham crackers that he shouldn't have and they upset his stomach. We took him to the vet and he was x-rayed, examined and prescribed pain killers. Now he seems almost totally normal except he will not eat his pellets or...

Incase anyone thinks of mites - I've already thought about mites being a possibility but he seems to have none of the symptoms I've researched and otherwise seems like a normal healthy bunny. Anyway basically he's moulting very strangely this summer. All previous years he's moulted his fur has...

Hello, I am new as a member but not as a reader. I have a question regarding the sudden aggression of one of my rabbits and how to address it as she has become hurtful to our other rabbit. We have two rabbits: one French lop and one dwarf/lionhead mix. The baby (lop) was recommended as a...

Hi everybody, First time posting here and it’s maybe a deep thread. I had 4 rabbits, 2 couples. 1 couple has been rocked by death and a sudden disability. Since May, blue has had health problems. I don’t know much about his background as he is a rescue bun. The most gentle and soft bunny...

Hello, I am in need of advice. My bunny Rambo is 4 years old, for past few years his teeth have been over growing, which has been causing him alot of trouble due to being in pain. We have had several treatment from the vets ie his teeth being snipped down and this being done, while he was...

I was wondering if anyone here could provide their thoughts and opinions about the best thing to do for this. Our 3 1/2 year old White Dwarf mix, Tulip, unfortunately started sneezing again after having no issues in the past year. This last happened a few months after we first adopted her, and...

Hi everybody, This is my first post and, as you can see by the title, a very sad reason brings me to this forum... So my giant French lop has myxomatosis... Five days ago I went out to his cage and saw that his eyes were really red and swollen. I took him the vet and he had a full health...

I recently bought 2 male and 2 female one month-old bunnies. I gave one to my friend and i was left with 3 of them. That was just 2 days ago. I kept them in a nice cosey cage with food and water and once a day i let them go on a pile of hay and they did their bussines and fed themselves a...

I have a family of four rabbits all of who lost a lot of weight due to extreme decrease in weather over the last weeks but all of them have managed to put on all the weight except my 2 year old male. He still eats and drinks but isn't gaining weight, i've checked him for skin infections and...
