    Keeping Bunny Comfortable?

    I took Garnet to the vet today for head tilt and decreased appetite. I didn’t catch the name of it, but it’s a bacteria that typically lays dormant in bunny muscle and sometimes it randomly pops up. Because Garnet’s is very mild, they prescribed Panacur once daily for a month. However, I notice...

    Rabbit Vs Brother

    @Aki I do actually have a spare bathroom completely connected to my bedroom that hasn't been used in years that I can put her in (with the necessary bunny-proofing of course). The only issue is is that it is currently housing two foster kittens. They are extremely playful and curious so that...

    Rabbit Vs Brother

    My brother hates my rabbit. Well, hate is too strong of a word. Maybe dislike is better? When I first got Garnet my brother was fine with her, a bit uneasy, but fine. But the moment she chewed up his phone charger, it all started. I can understand him being upset, I mean the rabbit chewed up...

    Eek, Fleas!

    Lately we've been having a flea crisis in our home. I've found fleas on both our foster kittens and our dogs, and have found some flea droppings on Garnet's skin. I have tried brushing some of the fleas out with the flea comb, but Garnet's fur is too thick for me to actually get anything done. I...

    Bald patch behind ears - new rabbit mommy here!

    My Garnet has the same thing, she's had it since I got her from the shelter and the worker said it was from the stress of being in a small cage. It's been a year now and no hair's grown back, but she hasn't lost any. Maybe it's just clumpy fur?

    Help, lump on bunny's face!

    I forgot to give fresh hay at that point in the day, which explains why she wasn't eating it. I do indeed give her fresh hay multiple times throughout the day, and she only gets a cup of pellets a day, later at night.

    So we came back from the vet, and he says that the abscess has decreased tremendously from the last visit from the cleaning. It turns out the penicillin lasts 3-7 days, and she didn't need it this appointment, so we go back in four days to see if she does need another shot of it. The abscess...

    So good news, Garnet finished all her pellets while I was at school. She decided also to sneak in a few more by eating any I dropped. Still won't eat her hay though, it might be because the hay's been in her litter box for a while, so I'll clean it out and add fresh new hay. I'll ask about...

    Help, lump on bunny's face!

    If she doesn't finish it by the time I get home from school, I'll add some warm water to her pellets to make it a bit easier for her. She's definitely still hungry, she was attempting to open the hamster food drawer. How do I get her to continue eating her hay? She's quite the strange rabbit...

    Help, lump on bunny's face!

    Thank you all for your replies, it truly means a lot. I'll definitely bring the tooth issues with the vet. He did take a look at her teeth and saw nothing concerning, but I'll double check with him. Garnet is doing fine. She didn't finish her pellets which is odd considering they're her...

    Help, lump on bunny's face!

    Just came back from the vet. The vet gave her a shot of penicillin as well as he cleaned out the hole in her abscess with iodine and hydrogen peroxide. He advised me to continue cleaning out her abscess three times daily, and to come back Friday to see if she needs any more penicillin. I'm just...

    Help, lump on bunny's face!

    I forgot to add that it is about the size of a quarter, and pus frequently comes from it. I assume she's in pain as if I attempt to touch it, she freaks out and hops away to hide. I have a feeling that something may be stuck there, as when I was taking a look at it I noticed something hard and...

    Help, lump on bunny's face!

    Hi there! I am a new bunny parent to a lovely 3 year old bunny girl named Garnet who I have had for a year now. During school today she escaped her cage and knocked over the food bin, and I noticed her fur puffing out on the right side of her face. I inspected it, and found a lump with pus...
