Hi guys, thankfully I haven't needed to post here for quite a while!! I was away on holiday last week with a house sitter looking after my rabbits. When I came home I noticed Cleos eye was dark with a red tinge. I panicked and booked her a vet appointment with the unusual pet vets here in...

I have been brushing my girl a lot lately as it is summer here and she has a very thick coat. To my horror I found a large bald spot down her back last night. Looking at her normally you can't see it because her long hair covers it. I'm not sure if I should be worried or if she is moulting...

I have a pair of bonded bunnies, my princess Cleo and my little prince Bambi. They are both neutered and have been living happily for...almost a year now? Recently I have noticed Bambi has began mounting again and Cleo has been running away from him. Just the other day I noticed a bald spot on...

I have two buns, Bambi and Cleo. I have noticed recently that some of their droppings are dark and smaller than normal. I am not 100% sure whose droppings are irregular but I am fairly sure it's Cleo as she hasn't had much of an appetite lately. Obviously I know these droppings aren't a good...

So I was looking online for enrichment items for a rabbit care sheet I was doing at school and I came across Kongs for small animals http://www.kongcompany.com/products/for-dogs/rubber-toys/small-animal-kong/small-animal-kong/ You can't buy them here in Australia so forgive me if this is common...

So my bunny Bambi has never been much of a chewer, my girl Cleo has always been the one to get her teeth into things :rollseyes So I hope I'm just being paranoid because it is unusual for him. Lately I noticed he will suddenly bite the carpet and pull on it for just a second. He is also...

So my rabbit Bambi has some weird looking lines in his fur. At first I thought he was just moulting and I waited for the lines to grow out...only they didn't. They change a bit, but have been there for months!! I guess I was just wondering if it was normal, I took some photos, not the clearest...

So I know this is a rabbit forum, but I know so many of you have a lot of different pets. I am a little bit at a loss for what I should do with my guinea pig and was wondering if anyone had some advice. Yesterday morning I put both of my male guinea pigs in their outdoor pen. After a while I...

This is Bambi, born on the 7-7-12. He is my naughty but cuddly Holland Lop =P Bambi loves his girlfriend Cleo, giving her bunny loves and digging in the backyard.

Cleo is my beautiful doe, the pet shop I got her from rescued her so I'm not sure how old she is. When I got her she had bald patches all over her back where her matted fur had to be cut off. They told me they couldn't sell her so they were reducing her price. I couldn't resist. She is now...

So I have noticed that quite a few on the forum keep fish. I have been looking all over the internet for answers but not a site seems to be able to tell it to me straight. I have recently acquired a 74L glass fish tank (I think about 20 gallons). I have no idea what kind of fish or how many...

At the moment Im trying to bond my male and female. Cleo was spayed around 2 months ago, Bambi was neutured about 5 weeks ago. I've been trying to bond them for the past few weeks and so far everything has gone quite well. There has been not one sign of violence, face licking and relaxed...

So on Christmas Eve my boyfriend and I went away to return late the next night. Because it is very hot here we had Cleo housed in the laundry with a divider seperating her and our not yet bonded but neutered Bambi. When we came home Cleo had done some very runny poos in various places on the...

So here in Western Australis we are having a bit of a heatwave. It's been 40 degrees (around 104F) here for the past few days and its forecast to get even hotter. Needless to say Im concerned for my bunnies. Whenever we are home my buns get free run of the house and the backyard if we are...

So I just read the forecast for christmas day, it will be 40 degrees here which is approx 104 F!! That sort of weather will kill ME let alone my poor buns! The biggest problem is that I am going away christmas eve and I will be back boxing day morning. I can't even give them a frozen water...

Thank you to everyone in this forum for convincing me to get my bun spayed :biggrin2: When I first came here, before I got my little boy Bambi, I didn't want to get my girl spayed. I couldn't understand why you would put an animal through surgery to change their behaviour, and frankly I never...

So my little boy Bambi is booked in for a snip tomorrow! Much more relaxed than I was with Cleo's spay a few weeks ago, although I'm not sure I should be because of Bambi's much higher energy level! I'm sure he will be much harder to keep calm while he recovers. Mostly I'm starting to think...

So a while ago I was taking my girl for a walk in this big grassy empty lot down the road from us. Next minute this rather large rabbit appears from nowhere! It seemed rather tame, not overly bothered by us though we couldn't quite get close enough to touch it, and with Cleo with us we didn't...

I have always spent a great deal of time researching about the kind of foods that are good for rabbits. Yet everytime I go to the markets I find myself looking for something to give them, trying to remember what was better than what, what they should eat lots of and what they should eat on...

When I took my little boy outside for a run today I noticed he had a bit of a limp. At first it was very noticeable as he wasn't touching his foot to the ground at all. After a minute or two he started hopping almost normally he just seemed to hold his back left leg a little closer to his body...
