    Two (spay and neutered) Rabbits, approx. 3 years old and in good health. Salem, Oregon

    @The Bunny Room , we're on the same page. It's the babies that "fly off the shelves" vs. an established bonded pair who need to be rehomed. Yes, places get overwhelmed. Truly not enough homes and knowledgeable humans to welcome/accept a furry lagomorph family member for their entire...

    Two (spay and neutered) Rabbits, approx. 3 years old and in good health. Salem, Oregon

    @The Bunny Room , I am a regular browser on various Facebook forums for elderbuns, disabled buns, adoptable house buns, and reputable rescues. There are thousands who need dedicated homes, and the local shelters keep on receiving more surrenders. It is frustrating to see the quanity of...

    Sorelle Saidman, aka Pipp, was a regular participant on RO when I first joined. You may want to reach out in case their dedicated group has resources or suggestions for finding the appropriate forever-home. I understand about shelters as not all screen meticulously. Some shelters may view...

    @TheBunnyRoom, is Rabbit Advocates an option for your already sp/eutered duo? They melted my heart by all the pics you posted. I hope they find a devoted home. There are many instances of humans dumping their rabbits in the wild. It is essential to screen well and contact a vet when people...

    Head turn, not tilt

    Our special needs' hind-limb paralysis girl resists having her head turned. She favors only one side. She was diagnosed with degenerative neurological over a year ago. She's a hospice-care bun. @ta240 , I understand the quiet comment. Treasure each day with your senior boy.

    First time rabbit owner - Question about breed!

    A good home is what ANY kind or age of rabbit wishes for. I look forward to more photos and stories about your lucky adopted boy. Furry "baby", for sure. @Jessica Galbreath , glad he's indoors. Safest place to be from malicious humans, predators, parasites, and the weather.

    Female humping and biting

    I will have to check our Vet record notes on the rescue bun that came in and was deemed a hermaphrodite. This was the second case I heard of. Our 7 y.o. n/male boy started to gather hay in his mouth like he mighta wanted to ... build a nest? Dunno. Or he decided to play a game and carry...

    First time rabbit owner - Question about breed!

    Thankfully Bean is out of the shelter and is already neutered. In all the years I volunteered at the local shelter so many came in with little information. I am grateful you got connected with a rabbit-savvy DVM and Bean the Bunny's fur matting was addressed. Very Adorable is an alternate...

    New soap

    Comments from our DVM during a house visit for RHVD2 booster update: The clinic has a pet resort for pet parents to drop-off their dog or other pet. Doggy Day Care so to speak. Enter - White Coat syndrome! i.e. Like going to your Primary Care and your calm demeanor or blood pressure is...

Discussed additional things we can do for her if you feel she is uncomfortable or if you feel she is painful. Discussed polyglycan injections: Polyglycan...

    arthritis!

    @JBun, thank you for all the info and links. I do think our DVM suggested a higher once-daily Metacam/Meloxicam dose than the option of giving my Dory 2x daily doses spaced 12 hours apart. All the info you gave me increases my knowledge! I am persistently concerned about Dory's kidney...

    arthritis!

    Our 7-yr-old rex girl was diagnosed with degenerative neurological over a year ago. She lays on her side and I express her bladder by gentle massage 3-4x times daily. Her hind and front limbs are mostly non-functioning - save for times I hold her belly to let her nibble supper salad or do...
