    Pneumonia and vets not listening to you

    What antibiotics is he on ? There is a chance that it will take a little while to see improvement again after relapsing, or you might be seeing a resistant strain and need to take a more aggressive approach to treat this with multiple antibiotics . Unfortunately you are going to have to be a...

    I am wondering if i should start moving my rabbits inside

    If you have a garage it's likely still colder than the rest of the house, but just not as cold as outside, correct? As long as they arent going from one temperature to another extreme they should be okay. BUT it is harder to put them back out. So once you take them in they will be in for the...

    Would my rabbit get pregnant

    Unfortunatley your girl is still able to get pregnant, even at this later stage of life, and even with all that additional fat. While it might make it HARDER to get pregnant, it will also mean that if she does become pregnant there is a high risk that it will really damage/kill her. It would...

    I hate my rabbit.

    Rabbits CANNOT vomit .. like at all. If she is vommiting, no vet worth their salt would send her away saying its a behavioural problem, because it's not. I've also never heard of a rabbit whining? They make some noises sure, and most hate being penned, but they normally dig ar chew bars to vent...

    Bunny and Dog Problem

    That's a really good post Blue Eyes. I tend to warn people off of dogs and rabbits, because I have seen a lot of disasters. A lot of people forget their dog is a predator and should be treated as such and don't take predator behavior seriously, while expecting a relationship that is rare to...

    Bunny and Dog Problem

    Your rabbit is scared because you have brought a major predator into his home, in your bunnies mind he is now in constant danger all the time. Just because he cant see it, doesn't mean he cant smell and hear it. You can start by giving the rabbit a dog free space, a different room where the...

    Marathon Bonding Experience

    Boy 1: ~2years neutered: March 1st Boy 2: ~6 months neutered: 1st October We took in Boy2 as a temporary thing, we planned to neuter and vaccinate him and then ask a shelter to help us find him a home. But we ended up deciding to try bond them, as he seemed to be a good personality match for...

    Considering a third bunny...

    I would recommend a quad over a trio. I was heedless of all that "break up a bond" and fell into the same "but I have the space for three and he needs a home" So i take this little desperate rabbit in, he LOVES my pair. He is nothing but affectionate to them, and they hated him so much that...

    Switching pellet brands, are the new ones okay?

    All 4 of my rabbits are dental bunnies and chew these type of things : https://www.amazon.co.uk/Rosewood-Boredom-Breaker-Edible-Extra/dp/B00PUENTL8/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8 Which are really tough and keep their front teeth down. Be warned it's not an exciting toy, they just chew...

    I need a pep talk before neutering...

    All my boys have been neutered. And my girl (so 5 in total) And not one of them has ever lost any of their weird quirky ways. I did manage to stop their urge to spray pee on the walls but other than that they all stayed the way they were. People often think the phrase 'it calms them down'...

    My rabbits won’t be friends! Help!

    Have you tried any stress bonding? Females are by far the hardest bond unfortunately. How long ago were the neutered - females can take 6 months for their hormones to drain. Is there any places local to you that do bonding services? Some bonds can be made easier by having someone else help...

    Someone dissed me for rabbits

    Why is it weird for a tarantula but okay for a rabbit? Both are exotic species, who prefer to stay close to their burrows and are unsuited to wearing a harness and being walked like a dog. Rabbits aren't dogs as much as a tarantula isnt a dog. This fad of taking rabbits into dangerous public...

    Digging carpet

    I have 3 house rabbits allowed outside in good weather. They absolutely love to tear up the garden, but they actually dig less inside when given the opportunity to get that urge out of their system in the place for it. I dont think carpet can compare to dirt

    Rant: My Rabbit is becoming a pain in the tuckus...

    I forgot how difficult unnuetered boys were until i started fostering some hooo boy. The spraying pee on you because they love you is not something i could live with for long

    Someone dissed me for rabbits

    You put your rabbits in danger and unsuitable conditions so you can hang out and film kids. If you don't want to be labelled a predator, don't act like one. None of your responses make it seem like what you are doing is normal, because there's no reason for you to do what you do other than...
