Hi! I recently rehomed a little female bunny - she had been found wandering in a road and the lady who found her couldn't find the owner but also couldn't keep her so she came to me. With not knowing whether she was neutered and being aware of the fact she had been out for an unknown time, I...

Mine are in the (metal) shed so I just make sure they have plenty of bedding. When they were outside I would cover the front overnight with carpet or heavy tarpaulin (along with plenty of bedding) which seemed to be sufficient for them x

Vaseline and Sudocrem are safe to use on buns... I don't know if the names are the same in the USA? Vaseline is petroleum Jelly?

Could he have hurt his back? I believe a spinal injury could lead to rear paralysis and toilet issues - but I am happy to be corrected. I'd be contacting a different vet for a second opinion.

Back in October I posted about an aggressive bun that we had dumped on us. After that post, he got even more aggressive, attacking me for no reason and causing quite bad injuries. He needs neutering, which I think is the majority of his problem but due to finances, we have so far been unable...

I notice you are in America. Round here we have a few professional pet care companies - Pet Pals, Paw Pals, etc - who will go in and sort out your animals (they do dog walking, etc too). I know it will cost, but could you see if there was anything local to you? I'm sure one call on a saturday to...

Do you not have a friend or neighbour who could pop in and feed them?

He is beautiful! It's killing me as he is sat in his cage over there ----> and I just want to get him out and fuss him but I know I can't! He is a lot bigger than that pic now, that's one that I pinched from my friend's FB pics from when she first got him :)

thanks for your reply! I've just been reading some of your posts about Agnes and Archie! The first pic below is Millie, Binky, George, Buddy and Charlie. I have no idea how I got them to sit together! After this pic we added Jacob too and they all just sat together! The blondie in the...

Thanks JBun - I think I'm leaning more towards the leave him in his cage route at the moment, out of fear for my own safety! I have a job interview monday morning, not sure how I am going to mask the current injuries, without risking any more! I'm hoping to get him in at the vets on tueday...

Thanks for your reply :) I haven't dared go near him today - whenever I come in the room or get up from the sofa he gets all excited, runs to the end of the cage and stands on his hind legs as if wanting to come and see me, but I just daren't! I'm baffed why after almost a week he suddenly...

Hello! I joined a while ago wanting urgent advice and never introduced myself. Now I am not so fraught, I figured I would say hello! I am a 28 year old mum of 2 little boys, 3 kitties (2 are rehomed ferals, aged around 10, one is a 5 year old mad ginger tom) and currently 7 rabbits. I got my...

Sorry I never got back in this thread! She unfortunately died before I got her to the vet :( I don't know if the previous owner was aware of a problem, but from the way she was I think they must have been and wanted to palm her off as quick as they could. Very upsetting as she was a sweetheart.

Hi, I need some advice with a bun I have taken in. He is approx 11 months old and is a minilop. He was bought from a breeder along with another male from the same litter by a friend of mine. She started moaning 3-4 months ago that he was getting aggressive, attacking the other rabbit...
