Thanks for the reply. I completely understand the idea of not giving some of the vitamin supplements i have seen for sale. Most seemed kinda sketchy to me. Saw the guinea pig tablets, may give those a try. As per meds, I never knew there was Zithromax for rabbits! That stuff gets rid of...

Hi everyone: here is my situation --- i have a 3.5 year old Mini-Rex. A couple weeks ago she developed a sneeze. we took her to the vet immediately. Vet looked into her nasal cavity, took temp, et al. No problems. Told us to keep an eye on the sneezing. Three days later she sneezed with a...

Thnx all. I will keep you updated. Besides if she is preg., looks as if i may be getting another bun!!! I am sure Mrs. Sniffles ( http://mrssniffles.blogspot.com/ ) needs a friend ;)

I have a question for a friend... she adopted a stray domesticated rabbit found in the area and um the rabbit has started nesting behaviors. Pulling fur walking around with hay in her mouth... is there any way to really tell if the rabbit is preg short of going to the vet? Tnx in advance.

Please don't flame me. The only way I would adopt is if a young rabbit was there, ie. no more than 10-12 weeks. Then I am not keen on it. I have never had good luck with animals from shelters -- long stories. I think the idea is noble and I appreciate those that do it. I really want a...

Hmmmm... While it could be that he is just in a mood -- mine does that from time to time. Not to needlessly alarm you, but it could be what i have termed "bunny funk." Once, Mrs. Sniffles got in a mood for over a day and then just lost her appitite. She was not weak, just in a funk and...

Did he eat his food for the day? i know he ignored the treats. Is he eating his hay?

Thnx everyone. Old Bethpage show was were I first met Mrs. Sniffles and her brother and sister. YAY. (She came from Kathy at Sunny Oaks. I soooo still want a flemish, but I can't have that big of a cage in the apt.) I will scour the web ring and see what i can see.

Hi everyone, I am thinking about getting another bun. I currently have a very social, very fashionable, cosmopolitan mini-rex named Mrs. Sniffles (Check out her blog http://mrssniffles.blogspot.com/ ). I am looking for a mini-lop or a holland lop -- as a companion. No one should be an...

Mrs. Sniffles says to tell everyone thanks for your comments. She really appreciates it. Snow... Snow... Snow... Where did it go?

Thnx Buck. that is a great idea.

thnx everyone for your comments. YeahI was figuring that she could have some Cilantro and maybe some greensfor the trip. She is out of the cage for hours at a timewithout going for a drink... so I am not too worried Alwayscare to err on the side of caution.
