    Ear mole on seniour Bunny.

    Our dear old tripod Bunny is almost 8 years old... A month ago we started to notice a small growth developing on his ear. It has grown a little bit bigger during the last few days but seem to have settled now. We know he is a senior Bunny and understand most of his medical issues. Just have no...

    Red spots in poop ( photo attached)

    Thank you so much for all your kinds words. I often wish we could have travelled to Europe or the US to get Albert treated there. I am sure there are so much more the doctors could do for him. Here in South Africa, they just say, it is a senior rabbit. Not much one can do for them. Very few...

    Red spots in poop ( photo attached)

    Thank you for all the advice. Little Albert is ok and fortunately the internal bleeding was ruled out. The Doc tested the stool and said it must been small pieces of his treats that were not probably chewed. I will probably never understand but he also said apart from the dental coming up next...

    Red spots in poop ( photo attached)

    The little Dougnut treats are red, yes, but he has been eating them for almost a year. I thought they would be digested by the time it reaches the intestines. Strange. Luckily i haven't seen more red poops after this morning.

    Red spots in poop ( photo attached)

    Our 7 year old tripod bunny is medically not having his best year. He has been on Metacam for a few months now - arthritis and dental problem. Also on chronic liver meds. Even though we are still trying and offering him his favorite food, he doesn't eat a lot. Just a bit of lucern plant, small...

    Our veterinary practice is currently out of stock and have no Critical Care food supplement to offer me for the next few days. We are based in SA and here Oxbow products has to be imported from abroad. Our beloved senior bun is unfortunately dependent on critical care and i now need to make an...

    Tearing eyes. The

    Thank you! We are going to vet tomorrow although my hopes are not very high. I don't think they know what to tell me anymore (and they certainly cannot do another dental ? Previous procedure under anesthetic was a month ago ) I will start with the Metacam again and see how it goes from there...

    Dietary guidance needed with our senior rabbit.

    Got it, thank you! Our vet said she is going to try and get an alternative product. Just want to know as well..is 6-7 years that old for a bunny? I thought they get even older without having as much problems as ours. Good to know someone understands, thank you!

    Please help! Sick bun! Need your help

    I am not an expert at all but knows you need to keep her warm and hydrated. Think they can go without food for about 24 h before it gets serious. Time for you to get in contact with an online vet or any other vet in the area. She probably need subcutaneous fluids to start with? Speak to/ comfort...

    Dietary guidance needed with our senior rabbit.

    Thank you. Will go to the vet asap and try and get Benebac. I have read about this before. I did use Mobiflex for a while( around 10 days) but it didn't seem to have an effect on him and at that time I just wanted him to eat again. A month ago he had so many different meds to be added into his...

    Dietary guidance needed with senior rabbit.

    Albert was picked up about 4 years ago. He was already a mature bunny so i estimate his age to be around 6 or 7. He was badly bitten on his left side but somehow survived until a group of kids saw him lying in a puddle of water. Unfortunately the vet couldn't save one of his back legs. He became...

    Dietary guidance needed with our senior rabbit.

    Thank you! Will certainly look for some orchard grass tomorrow and give it a go. Our little bun is just so picky, i doubt that he will eat it. He loves fresh lusern leaves but i have been told, too much can make their stomach feel bloated. The grinder concept seems the same as the Oxbow...
