My bunny is five years old and has always been very healthy. He gets a diet of leafy green veggies, a small amount of kaytee pellets and free choice kaytee hay. The last 10 days or so he has been SO vocal. Whenever anyone in my family is near him we can hear a strange throaty noise. The first...

Thank you Lakecondo! I will have to do this in the morning. UPDATE: My rabbit pooped! Yay! But... besides 2 or 3 small (but normal)poops, the rest are a giant clump. There are cecotropes stuck along with regular poop. I'm not sure if maybe he is overproducing cecals because critical care is...

As an update, he is still perky. But looks to be in more pain, though I did give him the pain medicine. Today, I've forced him another 10 ml of critical care. He ate one piece of parsley on his own... I've decided along with my vet not to give the antibiotic. Is there anything else I can do...

Thanks, I talked to my vet again & decided not to give the antibiotic. I'm going to give bene-bac. He's definitely not full as he hasn't eaten anything but 1/4 of cup of pellets amd about 40 ml of critical care in over 24 hours. This is a big rabbit so he eats a lot! He has pooped this morning a...

the skin is plain pink and healthy

He lives alone, but he could have rubbed on something,however, there's nothing new in his cage. I don't think it's mites. And no he's not molting

Hi, my 2 year old bunny is missing a patch of hair on his nose about the size of my fingernail. He's in perfect health. The area doesn't have a cut or look bad. I just noticed it this morning. Any ideas on why this one spot is missing hair? Thanks!

Hi, I need to move my rabbit's litter box from one area of the cage to another. I have no choice but to move it now that winter will be coming. Yes, I know it's a few months (wish it were more!) but I want to start now. I tried moving the litter box and placing pee/poo in the litter box. I...

thanks for the info everyone

oh good to know. If anyone has a moment perhaps I could be directed to an article? I tried the library and a search, but nothing came up. It would be much appreciated :)

I was wondering if bunnies are prone to getting ticks on them if they run in tall grass and if they are susceptible to lyme disease. I have zero knowledge of this in bunnies, but my experience with horses has certainly been interesting so I'm curious. thanks

I definitely keep a close eye on him at all times so I'm not particularly worried, just curious. I've was told not to feed iceberg because it causes diarrhea as well as having little nutritional value. Typically, my rabbits salads contains 4 different veggies, I read in the library on...

I was just curious if, generally speaking, a domestic rabbit will stay away from things they shouldn't eat. Now I know my rabbit would would eat his weight in fruit if I let him, but in small doses fruit his fine for him. If I were to put iceberg in his cage (Not that I ever would!!!) would he...

I'm not going to speculate on what it could be, but I agree she needs to see a vet! Be creative in what you could bring her in. A cardboard box? A laundry basket? Anything that has small holes in it for breathing, and secure a towel or blanket over the top. If she's lethargic she probably won"t...

Perhaps, your could explain a bit more. I don't fully understand your post. Why would I test for E. Cuniculi? I would also have no clue how to read a lab report. Would my interpret the report?

Your reply makes sense. I just wanted to double check, how I worry! :) I should probably be happy he is drinking so much since I always hear of people complaining that their buns don't drink enough. Harvey has his annual check-up in August so if anything worsens maybe I'll have the blood test...

I've had Harvey for over a year, and he has never drank too much water. I always soaked his greens in water, and my vet says rabbits will/can go a while without drinking lots of water because in the wild they may not always be around large sources of water. Between the soaked veggies, noticing...

No the snake cannot get into the actual cage. I ended up moving all the hay right away, just cause I worry so much. I have not seen the snake since, and I have been checking A LOT! Hopefully, the snake doesn't come back now that his home is gone... It is a large area so I feel that my bunny...

Okay good to know. The marigolds in the bag are much darker, perhaps it's just because they are dried out. I gave him so more, which he devoured and seems perfectly fine with them. Your bun seems to enjoy them too! Nice plants :) Thanks for the info edited to fix spelling
