Thanks honey pot. I've thrown away the food bowl and given the area a good clean. It was ayoung rat,smaller thanthe size of a tennis ball when it was sitting down. I dont think that there was a threat to the bunnies from what I saw. Mybunnies are quite large and they just sat there totally...

Hi Just wondering if anyone could help. Tonight I was in my kitchenwith my bunnies, (they are out24/7 and have a food bowl on the floor near the hutch). WellIlooked round and therewas a big fat brownrat sitting in the food bowl, eating the rabbits food!:shock:.!!!! I nearly died. I think it...

Thanks everyone. She is doing ok after her surgery. She seems happy and plays outside- does binkies and flops on her side, and she eats well. I think she will have chronic problems as there was bone invovlement but the wound is nice and clean with not much coming out now. She is going...

I've been trancing my bunny to clean up her chin after surgery for an abcess. Some books say dont trance them it's stressful and others say it doesnt bother the rabbit. In my opinion she is much happier if she istranced, because she hops about and has something to eat afterward, where as if...

Hi I had the same problem with mine pooping on the couch and then thatstopped with spaying. Then both of them started peeing on the couchwhich I meant I had to put acover on(I had to buyone of those incontinence things for covering matresses) and keep itthere for ages and they eventually...

Hello, welcome.:wave: Your bunny is beautiful!!!!!!!:hearts: Liz, Flora and Northern Dancer

This might sound weird but I have a dwarf lopand when she is shedding I get heaps of hair out if I stroke her with apair of rubber gloves on. Its worth a try, especially if a rabbitdoesnt like being combed or brushed. Liz Flora and Northern Dancer

Thanks a lot for your reply. I think my vet is going to leave the wounds open after. She said she is going to rinse them with antibiotic. I will ask her to do culture and sensitivity. That was a very helpfularticle about cleaning wounds,I've no doubt I'll need it overthe next few days as I...

Hi- wondering if I could ask some help. My 4 year old bunny Flora has two jaw abcesses. They have just beendiagnosed. She has no front teeth for 18 months following malocclusionsurgery. The outlook is not very good:cry2, and she is scheduled for surgery(drainage)this Wednesday. The vet is not...

Hiya I like this thread! Great pictures. Here is a picture of my city, Aberdeen Scotland. We are under several feet of snow just now. Hope it works! ND

Hi I would say as long as he's eating hay, that is the main thing to keep teeth worn down, isn't it? ND

A while ago I posted for some advice on my rabbit Flora who had stickly bottom and had to go to the vet twice for dematting under anaesthetic. Some of you gave me advice, mostly around focussing on her diet. I have made changes and am pleased to report (although it is early days) that this is...

I like this thread! Northern dancers gotcha day is my birthday!!!!!! My husband brought a box home for me for my birhtday and inside was "another rabbit!!!!!!" I remember his wee face peeping up at me:bunnydance: Flo we got one day when we saw her at the garden centre. She was our first...

I have watched watership down! I also read the book- its very good too. I liked that old chief rabbit that fought with the dog and let theothers get away. Its cute when they find "lucys pet rabbits" in the hutch and try to get them to escape with them. That song "bright eyes" is so sad. If...

Hiya Just wondering if anyone's seen Walk the Line, the Johnny Cash film, and would recommend it.? (It s just come out here and were thinking of seeing it Saturday). Cheers Liz

My bunny started pooping more and more to claim territory as she went from 2 months to 4 months and I had her neutered at 6 months which stopped the problem. Similar experience with my unneutered male when I introduced him to my neutered female it was like an explosion in a ball bearing factory...

I'll try some different hay thanks. I spoke with the vet yesterday. Unfortuately I think my rabbit has also been eating cat biscuits since I cut back a little on their food, and the vet thought that was the most likely reason. They seemed a bit resigned to the fact that some rabbits are just...
