Yes, it does lbs/oz and kilograms. It also has a 'hold' feature so when they sit still, you can press it and it will hold the reading on the scale which is nice!

Oh I should say, happy 6th birthday to my Moe-mon. I don't know his exact birthdate but its sometime in the next week. I can't believe he's 6!

Looks like a nice scale, how much was it?

Chase and Naomi:

And my ever so pleased Mocha and Zoey, lol!

 

[SOOOSKA]

You have the most Beautiful/Handsome rabbits.

Great pictures, but not enough.

I honestly can't say which one is the cutest, they'd all win contests if you enterd them.

I love Chase's hairdo, lol. I just think he's adorable with his mane. But yes, they are all adorable in their own way!

I have more pictures, but all of the pictures of Mocha and Zoey look the same, lol. They are grumps! Plus, Zoey was shaking, she was nervous 'on set'.

And as for Naomi and Chase. I had to limit their time too because Naomi feels very insecure in unfamiliar places so I had to limit the pictures with them too. If you notice, she never strays from Chase's side -- she always sits on his left side when she feels insecure.

And the garage pictures just don't do them justice with the poor lighting!

OMG, this is just priceless. Look at the expression on those faces !!!!

Good to see Zoey and Mocha, too. He is looking really good - can't believe he's nearly 6!

Great picturs!

 

[MyBabyBunnies]

So it has been so nice that I set up a run and move Naomi and Chase outside on the driveway during the day so they can soak up some rays. Mocha and Zoey's cage is right next to the door so I just pull the big door open and they get freesh air and sun. While Mocha and Zoey are apparently not outside bunnies because they spend the day in their box when I open the door instead of lounging in the sun. Needless to say, I never got any pictures of them because they were hiding, lol.

But Chase and Naomi are loving the sun. You can see that Naomi is feeling so much better.

Up until 2 weeks ago, Naomi wouldn't do this.

 

[SOOOSKA]

Great pictures as always.

Is that snow I see? Gosh my daffodils will be blooming soon.

Susan

 

[MyBabyBunnies]

Yeah that's snow, lol. This is why the bunnies can only go in the runs on the driveway. We still have 2.5' of snow in our yard. Up until 2 weeks ago we actually had 5' snow banks on the sides of the driveway.

 

[MyBabyBunnies]

So I have been really lax on the photos in for a number of months now. So I was outside taking pictures of the bunnies now. A lot of them are black and white since I am working on making some black and white photo collages for my wall.

Take a note of Naomi now and then at her old pictures. You can tell she has definitely gained weight and filled in. And her head is nearly straight once more.

Mocha:

Zoey:

Zoey hurt her eye a few weeks ago and has had ongoing treatment, she is now partially blind in her right eye and the corneal ulcer that formed still hasn't healed.

Chase:

I guess I will give a little more update/detail on Zoey's eye.

About 7 weeks ago, I pulled Zoey out of her cage because her eye looked funny. After looking at it closer, I found that she had scratched her eye and damaged her eyelid. So off she went to the vet. Since then she has been on oral antibiotics as well as eye drops, she's been to the vet weekly/bi-weekly since and while the abscess that formed on her eyelid has started to heal very well, her eyeball itself is having a hard time healing due to the large damaged area.

At the last exam, the vet showed me the actual corneal ulcer, which is very small itself as most of it has healed (leaving behind scar tissue which is why she is now partially blind in that eye) but on the surface, the eye is not healing. So we have opted for surgery. Zoey will have her eye debride next Thursday and her eye will be sewn shut for a little while to allow the eye to heal. I really did not want to go this route but after seeing how little treatment has done for the eye itself, the vet believes this is the best option otherwise Zoey may be on eye drops indefinitely and if her eye does not heal, she cannot go back together with Mocha which would be a shame.

So positive thoughts for Zoey and hopefully nearly a full recovery. While I know she will never regain sight in that part of the eye, I hope her eye can recover so that the drops can stop and she can be rebonded with Mocha.

Hopefully the surgery goes well, all the luck to ya and your furry kids!

 

[Zyzra]

I am Jealous! your rabbits are absolutely beautiful...i love the blue eyes on those two. The pictures are fantastic too. And Chase's mane just makes me smile

 

[Wabbitdad12]

How is she doing?

 

[MyBabyBunnies]

Zoey's surgery went well. The vet was happy with the outcome. Her eye is now stitched shut for a week or 2 (depending on if they dissolve faster). Unfortunately for her, she has to wear a cone which is very sad to see but it's a necessity or she would rip her stitches out. Lets hope that this finally helps her eye heal.

 

[Wabbitdad12]

I am glad she is doing o.k.

 

[MagnoliaDee]

Just found your blog. All your bunnies are gorgeous!!! I'm so sorry that Zoey is having these eye issues... but it's soo good to hear that she's getting the necessary help she needs. Fingers very crossed that all goes well!!!

 

[MyBabyBunnies]

Well I figured I am long overdue for some bunny updates.

As many of you know, Chase lost his 2[suP]nd[/suP] cage mate (in 2 years) 6 months ago. Unfortunately he has not done very well since. He is a very social bunny and has been very depressed since Naomi’s passing. I considered getting another bunny but given that I have pasturella in my ‘herd’ I have decided that would not be the best option. Recently I moved him from the garage (they live there in the winter) to his outside hutch and the change was almost instantaneously. He perked up a lot. Today I let him in the outside run and the change was drastic. He binkied for the first time since Naomi passed. He is showing more interest in his surroundings that he has for the last 6 months. Needless to say, I am relieved!

Now onto pictures!

Chase:

Zoey also had some medical problems with her eyes. Unfortunately I made the decision to remove the right eye, but she is doing marvelous without it. Her and Mocha are back together again, and they are thrilled. As for Mocha, all is well with him!

This is all you can see where Zoey is missing her eye:

Mocha and Zoey:

It's Mocha's 'seal' look, ha ha:
