Hi all! Thanks for your insight! My little girl’s energy and appetite have increased greatly! She’s still not eating as much as she was before, but she’s started eating hay, pellets, and veggies all on her own. The vet gave us some meloxicam for her to take, and she hasn’t missed one dose so...

Update: she took a couple more pieces of alfalfa hay and about 4.5-5mLs of water by syringe before loafing in her litter box and closing her eyes. I’m considering that maybe she’s just sleepy because it’s 5am and am going to let her be.

Hi all, bun was spayed about 18 hours ago. It’s 5am the day after she was spayed. She’s been syringe-fed critical care throughout the Fay yesterday by the vet, and then again last night by me. I woke up at around 4 to check on her and handfed her some alfalfa hay and two pieces of lettuce. For...

Thanks, all! I think the only other thing that I have that could be a hidey hole is this litter box enclosure that she uses. unipaws Designer Cat Washroom Storage Bench, Litter Box Cover with Sturdy Wooden Structure, Spacious Storage, Easy Assembly, Fit Most of Litter Box...

Hi all, my bun is getting her spay surgery in a couple of weeks, and I'm currently getting ready for the procedure. Right now, she has this hidey hole: https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/product/ware-farmers-market-natures-house-for-rabbits Sometimes, she'll jump on top of it. Is this...

Thank you all so much! Yes, I think I’ll try bringing her home after her spay. I think we’d both feel more comfortable having each other. Thank you again!

Hi all, my bun is scheduled to have her spay appointment in about a month. I’ve heard of some vets offering to board the buns for one or two evenings afterward just to monitor their health—something that’s included in the cost of the spay. My vet offers a boarding option where they’d bring the...

Thank you all for your advice! I've been planning on switching her over to timothy hay. Is there a good recipe for creating treats/cookies out of these leftover crumbles that you would recommend for a young bunny? I haven't given her any fruits yet, and I've been giving her minimal veggies based...

My bunny is currently a young rabbit (almost 5 months), so I’ve been feeding her Oxbow Alfalfa hay. Every time I buy a new package and open it, the top tends to be filled with long, sturdy strands of hay, but when I finish the top third, the rest of the hay becomes incredibly dusty, like little...

Hi! This may sound like a silly question, but during a shed, how do you know when is a good time to stop brushing? I’ve been warned not to overbrush, and I’ve heard of people brushing for 2 hours, but is a good rule of them to stop brushing when there’s no resistance, or will there always be...

This was helpful! Thank you!

Thanks, Catlyn! In general, how many territorial poops per day is considered normal? My bun still pees only in her litter box and most of her poops are in the litter box, but I feel like the number of outside poops has increased for some reason. Yesterday alone, there were at like 20-30 outside...

I recently got my bun a forage/snuffle mat from Toki Hut for enrichment purposes and in order to moderate her pellet intake (I feel like she eats a lot). I’ve tried using it a couple of times, but she doesn’t seem to be interested in foraging for her pellets. She’ll poke around and eat a few...

Hi all! My bun is 2 months old. She’s been really great at using the litter box for peeing (she hasn’t peed outside the litter box since the third day she first came home). She also leaves the majority of her poops in the litter box. However, nearly every day, she leaves a good number of poops...
