Hi everyone I am wanting to make some bunny safe treats and would like to know if it would be safe to include cinnamon and nutmeg in the recipe. I keep reading conflicting info so I would just like to be sure. Has anyone ever given their buns anything with cinnamon or nutmeg in it? Thanks!

Hi I have recently bought some potted flowers for the garden and am unable to find any info on the net to tell me if they are safe for my little bun. Does anyone know if petunias are safe for rabbits? I also have a plant by the name of scaevola aemula-its common name is the fan flower and it...

so after switching my rabbit's pellets to oxbow(no alfalfa) i have noticed that he still has white patches in his urine. i think this could be due to the fact that he doesnt drink enough water? how much water is normal and how can i get him to drink more? he drinks from a crock and occassionally...

hi about a month ago i noticed that my bunny's urine was becoming quite chalky and creamy-this occurred after a change in diet. i have since put him on oxbow pellets which contain no alfalfa but he still occasionally has a bit of white in his urine. is this normal? the urine is not...

I have a papillon who cant stand other dogs and outweighs my bunny by about 10kg-my rabbit is tiny!! For some reason he adores my rabbit and is super gentle with him. So there can be some exceptions.

My rabbit had this exact same problem when he was 5 months old. I took him to the vet and got some drops for his eye and a couple of days after putting them in I pulled a bit of straw out of his eye. Perhaps your bun could have something lodged in his eye?

I am so sorry to hear that! I wish I knew how to help you-hopefully someone on the forum might have some idea as to what caused this. Perhaps he was ill or had a heart attack? That could account for the scream. How awful for the poor little bun and you :(

I have a netherland dwarf who weighs just over 500 gms and he is absolutely fine with my dog. the dog is a papillon and is of med size. i introduced the two of them by keeping my bun in his hutch and letting my dog sniff him, then moved on to letting my dog sniff him outside of his hutch while...

He sounds like such a sweet little thing! It is remarkable what you are doing and good for you, giving him a chance at a happy life. Lots of well wishes being sent your way. Please let us know how he goes :pray:

Please keep us updated as to how the little bun goes at the vet's. It is a wonderful thing you are doing :):hug:

thank you!! :)

My rabbit has just discovered the joys of cilantro-so far I have only been giving him the leaves. Is it okay for him to eat the stems also? Does this apply to all herbs and is this something I can give him every day? Thanks!

Thank you to everyone-I am on the hunt now for a pellet with no alfalfa. Hopefully that should fix it.

The rabbit pellets are an australian brand called Ol Jacks. The ingredient list is alfalfa, barley, wheat, oats, rye etc, could it be the alfalfa that is doing it?

hi everyone i have noticed in the last couple of days that my 6 mnth old netherland dwarf has been passing an almost creamy urine that dries chalky. coincidentally, i have tried a new type of pellet-could this be why? does anyone know what causes this? should i cut down on the quantity of...
