I get the newsletter and I liked the facebook page. Please consider me for the contest. Thanks lots!:bunny18

hello, I went out with my friends today and we stopped at a local petshop. I observed that the baby bunnies (~2 months old) were being fed jalapenos and bean sprouts on top of their hay. I was surprised because I have never read that spicy food is good for rabbits, specially young rabbits. I...

Just an Update*** Pil Suk, my bun, is doing great. Dr Torres was wonderful. She allowed me to send her emails with updates on my bunny, even phoned me a couple of times just to follow up on Pil Suk's progress. I am very thankful for the personal treatment Dr. Torres offered to my family. She...

Hi, I would like to make some neat toys for my baby bun this christmas. I have bought her some of the store toys at the local petstore but she is not very interested in those. So, I figure maybe I can make something by myself. I dont have much imagination and the best I came up after online...

your bun needs pain medication. I had the same problem and my vet said that pain is what stops bunnies from eating. Ask your vet for some pain medication and force feed until your bun starts eating on its own and you see a change in the pellets. I was also told to give my bun some laxatives to...

Hi, My bunny got GI stasis and the vet said that as a preventive measure my bunny will have to take laxatone twice a week for life. Ever since my bun got sick she gets sick every week if I forget to give her the laxatone. Has anyone ever had this problem? does anyone use laxatone all the...

1. no, they need hay! lots and lots of hay. Pellets are also good, and veggies but check on them, there is a list on the rabbit society webpage. carrots are not that great, you should only feed them as a treat, very little and not often (too sweet), and dont overdo the lettuce either 2.bread is...

Hi, I have a picky eater and I dont know what to do. She is recovering from GI Stasis but she is not eating well. The vet said she needs to change diets, her old pellet food was too high on sugars and carbs, but my rabbit refuses to eat the new pellets. Lady Pil, the picky one, used to eat...

Hi, My bun is recovering from GI stasis. She is doing better but she hates to be syringe fed. She has done it all, from grunting to biting, jumping, running, scratching, and others. But yesteday she made whining noises for the first time ever. The way I feed her is a lock us in the bathroom...

Geoff wrote: Thanks, yesterday morning was the last time I gave her laxatives and pain medicine. Her poop is back to normal but it is not as much as before. She is simply on a hunger strike. She refuses to eat her pellets and is surviving on hay. I have the pickiest eater in the world. She...

My bun had something similar, GI Stasis. You need to take her to the vet, and an x-ray will tell a lot. If that is not possible, then let me share what the vet told me, I was told to syringe feed my bun but I read that it might not be a good idea if your bun has a blockage. My bun didnt have...

Blue eyes wrote: The vet said to feed her hay, but my bun is not responding well to hay and I am desperate for her to eat so I mixed some of her old food (seeds and all) with the hay so that she is tempted to go near the hay. But now I am wondering if that was a good move... I think for now...

Imbrium wrote: Thanks for the video, I wish my bunny was as docile as the one in there. Question, do you know if the food has to be that watery? does that help? I usually prepare it so that it is tick like syrup. I was told to do it so it is tick like pancake batter but I have never...

Blue eyes wrote: Thanks for the advice. She is a bit overweight, she should weight between 2-3 lbs but she weights 4 lbs. She gained weight this summer because my parents kept feeding her almonds. The vet recommended I stop the sweets, which I did, I took away her fiesta mix and threw the...

thank you for your advise. She is moving a bit more, she actually came to say good mornign to me, but ran away as soon as she saw me prepare the critical care food. She is still hiding, but I think for now I will just surround her with food and keep an eye on her. I got her when she was 3 months...
