I'm so sorry for your loss. Do you still need to find a home for your bun? I'm finally feeling ready to have a new bunny.

It's only been 2 and a half weeks since Thumper died, and I already have friends and family acquaintences asking me to take in their unwanted rabbits. I feel so bad, but I'm not sure if I'm ready. I just hate thinking of these animals in small cages with small children an their providers.

Thank you for the kind words. He was my first bun, and I put so much research into making sure I was prepared before even taking him in. Due to him being the only bun I've had, I was so nervous there was something that I could have done to have prevented his death. I really do hope he had a...

Thank you. It means allot. Today was hard. Not having someone to look after it to see a bunny come rushing to the front of his pen when I said hi boo boo. For those interested, the vet called because she wanted to see exactly what happened. Apparently Thump had a severe bacterial infection...

Here's some of my favorite pictures of my boy

So the vet called last night and Thumper took a turn for the worst. They found a mass in his stomach which they thought could be more than just stasis. They didn't think he'd survive surgery to remove it so they were going to keep him over night, pump him with IV, pain meds and critical care to...

I'm going to deeply miss this boy. 6+ years was not enough with him. Granted it had 2 homes before me so he could have been close to 10. but....still. Not enough time for me.

Just got a call from the vet, thumper passed away.

So I just got back from our 3rd vet visit. They found a mass in his stomach and a lot of painful gas in his lower intestines. They wnt to hospitalize him for a few days and see if there is an improvement as they don't know if he'll survive surgery. If he does get a bit stronger, tjhere is...

I forgot to add...he nibbled on some kale this morning after the motility and pain med last night, but he was spitting out the critical care this morning. He has mushy poops kind of like pudding in his litterbox. I came home for lunch to try again since he to be force fed 3x a day per the vet...

Yes, it's brown and liquid so definitely diarrhea. I keep reading that it's lethal so I'm taking him back (again) today at 3.

It looks like he ate half of a plate of veggies I left out for him overnight. But he does have some serious poopy but. Has this happened to anyone else after the motility drug?

Update: I called the vet and they had me see the he hospital director with Thumper. He also sees rabbits. He gave thumper three shots, a motility, a pain reliever and fluids since he hasn’t been drinking. He also sent me home with motility and pain reliever. He did not charge me for the...

I would assume that the vet is pretty rabbit savvy as they are the vet the HOuse Rabbit Society of NJ has on their page for my county. She did a check of his teeth and said they looked fine.

According to the vet, everything felt and sounded fine when I brought him on Sunday. I noticed he was turning he head at foods he normally loved and immediately brought him in. She took blood, and I heard from her late last night that there was nothing "exciting" with his blood work. She did...

Hello: I'm nervous as hell right now. I took Thumper to the vet and she couldn't find anything wrong with him. No physical signs of stasis, his stomach feels fine, etc. I brought him to one of the hospitals on the House Rabbits Society pages to make sure I was working with a vet that is...

Thanks everyone!! I really appreciate your advice. I remember reading you should put them in a place you are when I first got him and never really gave it a second though.

Hi all: So currently my bun is in the living area of my studio apartment. He always likes to hang out at the back of the apartment near the kitchen/dining area unless there's company. I'm considering moving him there, but then you would never even see him unless he decides to come out and...

I have Thumper. I took him from a family member who couldn't handle him along with her 2 kids under 6, a new born baby, two grown dogs and a puppy. He is a completely different bunny from when I got him a few years ago.

Oh okay....I guess it's a good thing he does it a lot then. Lol. Thanks!
