hi! our vet didn't do an x-ray/blood test but did a dental exam and said that his teeth are absolutely fine, I believe that his food/hay is normal as well since I can't notice any of the signs you mentioned. for the meds, we've been prescribed rheumocam and emeprid - in the past when duke had...

hi guys! unfortunately duke's had an upset tummy on Friday and we took him to the vet they said that his gut was very quiet and gave us some meds that help with stimulating the gut and reducing any pain he might have. We've been giving him the meds and he's been getting better, he's started to...

Hi there! Can I ask what breed your rabbit is? My mini-lop rabbit Bambi has a different hair type to my rex rabbit Duke so I use different brushes on them. For Bambi, I like to use the Hair Buster and think it is very effective, especially for her hair type. The second image you have attached...

Hi! Thank you for your response, I'll definitely buy a bag of orchard grass hay since they seem to like that as a treat which should hopefully encourage him to eat more! Hey! Our vet did a dental check and said that his everything seemed fine- Duke did have an issue with his front teeth around...

Hi Everyone! This weekend I noticed that Duke was sitting in the corner of his room and refusing to eat which began to worry me, I booked an emergency appointment and took him to the vet immediately. The vet said that he could not hear any gut movement and that Duke had GI stasis, he gave Duke...

Hey! I wanted to start letting the buns out in the garden in their x-pen for some roaming/play time, last time I did this they really enjoyed it even though I put the pen on the patio away from the grass. I would like to allow them on the grassy area of our garden since it's a lot bigger but...

hey! thank you all for your responses, they’ve been very helpful! the walls in the balcony are quite high and there is a layer of mesh above as photographed, and the ceiling is also covered- however i will definitely look into getting some plexiglass or smaller mesh above the walls for extra...

Hey guys! There's a chance we might end up moving back to our old apartment since I'm going to college next year and it's closer to my old place. Essentially as of now the buns are living in our utility area which is where we keep our washer and dryer so it's technically still indoors- they...

As the vet mentioned spaying can be beneficial for female rabbits in particular for reproductive cancers which can increase their life spans. Despite the vet mentioning she is not worried about Molly's health I think you should consider the small chance that Molly could develop any reproductive...

Hey guys! I've been looking for some rugs/mats for my buns and wanted to know if anyone had suggestions? I've tried foam mats with a flat rug on top but the buns chewed the foam, then I tried a large area rug but again the rabbits were destructive and pulled the fibres out of it, most recently I...

Hi! My buns are also avid chewers and I know how annoying it can get! Some rabbits also tend to chew if their area is too small, how big is the hutch? And does he get play time outside? The way I decreased the chewing was by providing lots of chew toys and constantly topping up hay, as I found...

Hi! Duke has recently had a digestion issue and teeth problems so was prescribed two medicines, one of which we have to give three times a day and the other once a day. Duke hasn't been taking the meds voluntarily and the vet showed us how to place the syringe in the side of his cheeks so he is...

Thanks for the advice! The pain and digestion meds the vet gave us have been working wonders so far, we can slowly see him bouncing back to normal! I think I'll definitely be going back to the vet after the meds are done for a checkup and consultation about the teeth so hopefully the vets can...

Update: we got an emergency appointment a couple of hours ago and the vet said Duke probably has some digestive issues, they gave us some meds to give three times a day and said if he doesn't come back to normal afterwards we should go in again. Also they noticed his teeth were growing long and...

hi! recently Duke has been noticeably slow and not as active. He has been eating his pellets and some of his veggies (him and Bambi are both quite picky eaters with veggies so I was offering him his favourites which he was eating). Hay is always topped up daily and I see him in the litter box...
