So I have a male house bunny who is almost 5. I noticed these last 2 weeks that he's been a bit extra stinky. More so than usual. I wasnt sure at first if he was in heat and trying to attract a mate with his scent. The smell is still there, so I tried to check those ducts by his rectum to see...

Heavy bowls. They can drink as much as a small dog and the bottles trickle vs letting them really drink. I've literally heard my bun gulping down water in a bowl that I know he wouldn't be able to do with a bottle. Also with bottles you can't always tell if they are drinking well or if it is...

Without any supervision, he will destroy stuff when you are away. They start remarking territory and exploring places that they usually wouldn't with others there. Id keep an area fenced off when he can stay. Like maybe baby gate a section you know he will be safe in. With adequate room of...

They can be trained even before being fixed. Keep a water bottle handy and firmly say no when they do something aggressive. This one rabbit rescue guy told me to stop my leg firmly on the ground, cuz supposedly that's what they do when angry, but mine always looked at it as a challenge and would...

I literally posted on an IG story a few months ago, "Bunny ate my homework" 🤣 I grabbed printer paper put it down for a second on the couch, Meli ran over and tore it apart!!! I'm laughing so hard right now, cuz everything you listed is literally bunny life!!! These lil rascals are hilarious 🤣 😂...

Awe she's precious! Hope she heals quickly and without ripping out anymore stitches! 🙏

I'd go closer. That way u can stay with family, and have that support there. If your family members have experience with this vet, I'm sure they are fine 🙂

So Mr Meli flops on his side like he's dead exhausted all the time. I attached some pics. It cracks me up. 🤣 But Years ago we had a bunny named Buttercup and she would lay completely flipped over like your bun! I'll try and find pics of her. I have them somewhere, probably on my laptop. She...

Yessssssssss! He attacked some of my laundry this morning and a dress now has a huge hole in it! 🤣🤣🤣 gotta love them! Lol

I'm sure other bunny parents have gone through similar stuff, so I figured it be a good laugh for us all lol. My big guy ate thru my entire purse strap today 🤣 he may have also ate a hole through a blanket I had on the couch 🤷🏼‍♀️ What is with them going through destruction phases? Oh well, Fur...

I actually made a post about his mass and updated with pictures. I can try and tag you to the post if you'd like to read the whole story and look at the pictures. I included what we ended up doing and how I removed it. It was definitely a stressful few months, and the vet agreed that had we not...

Keep an eye on him. He could just have bigger testies and it could be normal for him. Your bunnies are all beautiful 💜 keep us posted if you take him in. I'll also ask around to see if anyone has had a bunny with a similar issue

My issue was very different. My bunny had a mass that I originally thought was a botfly but traditional treatment wasn't healing it. And there wasn't a vet to take him to. My bun ended up losing a lot of weight and becoming sickly, I worried it was cancer etc. My bun is usually around 8 lbs and...

Well we cant change if they did mate so dont stress it. If the vet says she's pregnant and she gives birth, keep the male away from the babies and keep her in a place she feels safe and secure. Years ago we had a female given to us while secretly pregnant, and she had a history of eatting her...

I have a similar issue with not having a rabbit savvy vet near me. If you feel she is sick, id take her in. However if she is diagnosed with cancer, and a spay wouldn't cure the issue, I wouldn't personally put her through that. Some rabbits die under anesthesia and while distressed. And it's...

How big is he? Like how much does he weigh? And do you know his breed? It could be normal for his breed. My bun is roughly 8 lbs and has some big testies. He is 4 years old and mixed breed. When he was purchased I was told he was female, and 7 months later noticed his large testies had dropped...

Thank you so much! It was definitely a stressful learning experience, but glad I went with my gut. So the vet had no clue what caused the mass, because by the time the appt came around it was completely gone and healed. I showed him videos and pictures of everything from May to show how it...

If it's patchy and looks irritated it could be mites. Selamectin at the nape of the neck gets rid of them.

There wasn't, and he is better now. I posted the full updated on this thread.

They will probably drian the cyst, by lancing or with a thicker syringe, and give you betadine diluted solution to flush it while it heals. They may also give you antibiotics for him. Ivermectin is for parasites, so if it's not a bug it won't help. Depending on how big it is, your comfort level...
