I let Gizmo out of his cage this morning and while running around he was making low (really low) noises. They were like grunts/honking, but I'm not SURE that's what they are... that's why I am here asking you guys! The noises are almost like someone blowing their nose really hard but much less...

I have noticed that after Gizmo runs around and does the bunny 500 he pants so hard that it makes a little noise. No gurgling or wheezing, just the sound of air being sucked in and out.... Has anyone else noticed any panting noise after their bunny runs really hard? I'm in Arizona where the...

I'm no expert, but he looks like a mini lop to me. I can't take a guess on age, although he does look more like 6 months than 3. Weight wise the standard max weight for a mini lop is 6.5 pounds and it isn't uncommon for some to weigh more if they weren't bred to be shown. Hope this helps.

I think I can fit... another one in my... cheeks! Victory. Now lets go for number 25.

Momo is adorable! Welcome.

Is your buns cage large enough that you could fit the carrier inside without it taking up too much room? If so, it would be much easier for her to feel comfortable around the carrier as it would be in her territory. My guess is she might even begin to sleep in it. If that is not an option I...

I know some veterinarians will allow you to send e-mails etc. Perhaps you could call your vet, explain the situation and send a picture via e-mail to see if he has any extra recommendations and to make sure further measures don't need to be taken.

So some news.. After a long tedious exam the vet found the area the noise was coming from. Gizmo has a tear in the cartilage in his knee, which noise the vet was able to replicate when he rotated his leg and knee. He doesn't seem to be in any amount of pain, and the vet said this is something...

Randy- Thanks for the additional information via PM. Just a little update, I made an appointment for Gizmo and am getting ready to head out. The vet said we may not be able to find anything at this point because he is exhibiting no signs of paralysis and or discomfort. He said that cage rest...

Thank you all for your information and advice. Gizmo has been in his kennel all day except for a brief period when I had to clean his cage. He is still acting normally, eating, drinking and moving around his kennel with no problems. Randy- I'm wondering, if there was a luxation in his spinal...

Nope, not his nails. This noise is occurring when he is running or binkying on carpet. Just trimmed his nails recently as well. I currently have him in his kennel and am going to keep movement to a minimum to see if this helps reduce the noise and/or heal whatever happened. I'm thinking he may...
