Hi everyone, It's been awhile since I've logged on!! Between Thanksgiving and Christmas, I've been sooo busy! I miss you guys, but hopefully I'll be a bit more active when Christmas break starts! Anyway, Nibbles has been making this weird breathing noise for over a week now. At first I...

Hey everyone, I'm so excited! I FINALLY got a bunny flop on film!! I posted the video (along with some other stuff) on my blog just now. Check it out! http://verybunny.wordpress.com/2012/11/23/quite-a-bit-of-bunny-goings-on/

OK, here's the rundown: Nibbles was acting his normal self this afternoon: eating hay, pooping, ate all his dinner (greens), and ate some treats (papaya). This was all around 6-7:30 p.m. Around 9, I got in his pen to pet/play/whatever. He was in his box, which he usually isn't at this time of...

Junie has always been super picky about food. She's a good hay eater and loves her pellets, but she's never been very open to new foods. As of a couple days ago, she would only eat romaine lettuce and cilantro. We've tried parsley, spinach, kale, turnip greens, endive, and others and she simply...

OK, I've heard a lot of you say you use cardboard boxes to make amazing bunny playhouses. Well I want to see pictures! Share pictures of how you turned a plain old cardboard box into a kingdom for your rabbits! I've tried to do some, but this is as far as I've gotten: This is the box house I...

A year ago, we adopted Nibbles from a shelter. I didn't know it then, but after a year of being in bunny-land, I wouldn't trade our bunnies for anything! They have brought me and hubby so much happiness, I really can't explain it all. I wrote a big blog post about it (with TONS of...

Hey everyone! I wanted to let you know about a great deal I got through wag.com. It's a pet supply website that mainly has items for cats and dogs, but they do have a fairly nice selection of items for small animals, including (of course!) rabbits! A while ago (not sure how long...couple months...

So, I hope this is allowed. If not, please delete it, mods! I work for a Christian school and every year each teacher is assigned a date to present a devotion to the rest of the staff. We can do kinda whatever we want, as long as their is some sort of Biblical message in it. I thought for a...

Hi everyone, We bought these pellets at Lowes this morning. It was the only kind they had, but I wanted to make sure it was okay to use as litter for the bunnies. Here's the bag: And here's a close up of the stuff that's in it:

Got back from the vet's about 30 minutes ago. Crispin wasn't eating and didn't look to be producing his usual poops (very small ones at that). After some examinations, the vets determined he probably has the beginnings of GI stasis. Crispin's spending at least one night at the vet's (if not...

This morning, Crispin was making weird noises and sneezing quite a bit. He had some discharge from his nose, too. [You can read the whole story and listen to his weird noises here.] Anyway, we got some meds from the vet. We have to give it to Crispin through a syringe and he HATES it. We had...

I decided to take all three buns to the vet next Monday for an annual check up. They're not quite a year old yet, but I'll be back to school once they are and it'll be easier to go now! When I called to make the appointment, I asked how much it would cost. She said $70 per bunny (marked down...

Hi everyone, We woke up this morning to two interesting (perhaps one vet-worthy) issue. First, new bunny is still trying to mount Junie. When they went away for their bunnymoon the woman who watched them and worked with them said she saw none of that. It's not constant, but when he approaches...

Now that we have two bunnies living together, I'm not sure how to go about food distribution. I gave them pellets this morning when we got home in two separate bowls. They've both been eating out of both bowls. The new bunny is a bit bigger than Junie, so I figure he should need a bit more...

Well, our newly bonded couple have made it home! They seem so comfortable with each other and with their home. We had totally cleaned out Junie's NIC cage so it (hopefully) wouldn't smell like her and we added a few things. She used to have a single panel shelf and a double panel shelf as a...

Hi everyone! I've started a blog for my bunnies at A Very Bunny Existence. Hop on over and check it out! I just posted a Junie update, which also includes pictures and descriptions on some new toys I made for the buns (recent update + toys). Hope you like it!

Nibbles and Junie have their NIC cages set up next to each other. They're not bonded and won't be (most of you know that we tried and it didn't work!). When we let Nibbles out of his cage, he has to go past her cage to get to the main part of our apartment that he can run around in. He...

This morning I'm taking Junie to our local "bunny whisperer" with her (hopefully soon) hus-bun, Ruffian (not sure if we'll keep the name). They'll be staying a few days for a Bunnymoon and if all goes well, they should be bonded by next week sometime. I feel bad for little Junie...she'll think...

Hey everyone, I tried looking this up, but all I could find were Yahoo Q&As and I trust you more than them! I bought a scratching toy for Junie that is really meant for cats, but I think she'll like it, too. It comes with a small baggy of catnip. The directions say to sprinkle a bit over the...

Oh, my, a lot's been happening around here in the last few days... Last week I had a massive, last-ditch effort bunny date with Nibbles and Junie. I had read a suggestion elsewhere that said you could put the bunnies together for a whole day (supervised, of course) to "force" them to relax...
