Dear Pam,

I've spoken to Kathy Smith, the author of Rabbit's Health 101,and told her that you had highly-recommended her book. (Iordered it of course.) Told her that you're very muchrespected by the rabbit community and are an ARBA Judge. Shewas thrilled with your referral. It made her day.:) She was just estatic, and wanted me to let you know howmuch she appreciates your opinion of it.

Carolyn,

I'm thrilled to hear you ordered the book -- it's an outstandingreference. I'll have to get around to purchasing the newestaddition, but the older one I have is also very good.

The book is one of the best medical references on rabbits that you can purchase for such a reasonable price.

Hi Bluebird,

How often and long do you have to treat with listerine, and where onthe rabbit do you put it, just on the ears? I was justcurious.

When I first got the bunny purse above, Tucker was so jealous. He gaveme millions of kisses and wouldn't leave my side. He was a good boy,without needing correction for about 2 whole nights. :shock:

He's waaayyy over that now. :X

Hi Crissie5000,

I meant that Tucker didn't get in trouble. Since he was agood boy, he didn't 'need correction.' He didn't need to beyelled at because he wasn't doing anything wrong.

Crissie5000,

Nope, Tucker is my male rabbit. :) He's going to be 3 years old inJune. I was just joking by calling him my son because he's a boy.

Pam,

Strangest thing. Last night, I noticed that Tucker's other ear has whatthe first one had weeks ago. I rubbed some Vitamin E Oil on it, andit's looking 80% back to normal today.

I'm completely baffled.

Buck,

The only thing I can surmise from this is that his ears are touching and it's creating this issue I have.

I'm completely at a loss.

Thank you so much for troubleshooting.

That's strange -- keep us updated.

Pam,

I'm thinkin this issue of Tuck's ears has to do with where the earsmeet, and possible irritation of the skin at times. Maybewhen he gets hot or something, it acts up. Am keeping an eyeon it.

Could very well be. Heat and moisture from holding the earsdown could cause some irritation or bacterial/fungal growthonthe skin.

That makes complete sense to me, Pam.Thank you for acknowledging myquestion, as you always do andwe all appreciate so much. Will pay close attention to whatyou've said and watch for such conditions.

By Golly, I think you may have Got It! :)

The only complaint I have about this awesome forumis the fact that I inadvertently overlook a number of posts.(and don't want to appear rude if someone has asked mesomething). Is there an option to choose for "unread new"posts? I chose the "recent" option, but I'm still overlookingconversations (for example, I didn't even see the thread about Buckuntil today).



Pam
 
Hi Pam,

Good point. I go through the same thing.

I'll write a note to the webmaster and see what we can do.

Thanks for the thought.
