I had a wellness vet check recently for my senior bun. Everything checked out great! They were like “wow she’s old. But very healthy, besides a bit of spikes on her back molars on the right side.” They said with her age (8+) that they’re not too keen on putting her under anesthesia to file...

I’ll preface by saying that I have a vet appointment already set up for after the weekend— just seeing if anyone has any clues! My girl is probably about 6-8 years old, I’ve had her for 4. She is a retired 4H rabbit (used to teach kids about rabbitry), I adopted her after the kid she was...

I’ve had my bun for a 4ish years. Within the last month her urine colour has gone from a yellow to a dark orange. She’s still eating, drinking and being as active as she normally is. The only thing I can think of is dehydration, so I got her a bigger water dish. She’s not peeing anywhere out of...

My last rabbit was a very lone rabbit, but now I have a girl that I know benefit from having another bun to binky around with. Here’s the part I need help with. My current girl, Toshi, is unspayed, she was a 4-H rabbit, so there was a chance she would be bred. She’s been with us for a couple...

I rescued a retired 4H rabbit about a week ago! She’s a ham and such a cuddle bug!!! But she’s mixing aggressive behaviors with happy behaviors. She’s certainly territorial about her cage, but nothing too alarming. She’s keeps honking? And slightly lunging, but never like she’s actually going...

I recently had to put down my heart rabbit a few months ago, and he’s been my only rabbit. A vet student in my area contacted me after seeing I had also lost my last boy ratty. She tells me a few months ago, someone surrendered a retired 4H rabbit, that was quite the award winner, to her...

I've had a few threads about Hootie's problems, but long story short, important questions bolded for time: 6-7 year old New Zealand, been with me for at least 5 years, about 5ish pounds Lost his hind right leg in February due to a bad break, healed beautifully. A month ago he slipped a disc in...

Read below for the full story, but main questions: Dealing with nerve damage (hind leg on already 3 legged rabbit... Special circumstances), how long should I keep him confined to small movements (he's been confined to a 36x23 dog crate for a month)? As far as improving nerve damage, is it slow...

I've bolded the important parts for TLDR situations, I just have a lot on my mind... I wrote a bit ago about Hootie having urine scaled. I assumed it was from the fact that he had an amputation of his hind leg back in February after a nasty, mystery break, and he was just adjusting weird to a...

Hootie had surgery to have his hind leg removed after a break too far up to repair about three months ago. He's been doing really well adjusting, and even navigating on tile floors! However, he's having some trouble cleaning everything down there. I'm not sure why it's just starting now, but...

I honestly cannot believe this is happening! I posted a few months ago because my boy broke his hind leg. We were lucky enough to have great family and friends to help us out financially to get an amputation, and he did great! Just started getting comfortable navigating on tile, using his new...

My best buddy of five years (although he's a little older than that) broke his femur sometime within the last two days. We've been to our vet, who said it's definitely a break higher up in the femur. He said surgery is the obvious choice. My boyfriend and I are scrambling to get 1000...

My 2-3 year old bun, Hootie has been free range his entire life. He got caged in a large dog crate only when I was gone for extended periods. Now, I moved to a larger place, and I got rid of his cage entirely. When he had a crate, his litter pan was in there, and he used it perfectly. Even...

He was feeling weird and sassy. When he sits in a lump I always think he looks like a gremlin.

I have a two year old mutt bun. I took him in from a friend, who raised him lovely. He has an amazing personality. He's very cuddly, gives kisses. But he does act "like a diva" as my roommate would put it. He circles me when getting food, and will even thump at me if I'm not doing it quick...

Hootie was racing around. Then he got very tired. He flopped so hard I kept having to make sure he was breathing:D

Hootie just got over a GI stasis which he got from eating a decent amount of butter, so I thought we were going to get a break from worrying... Last night I noticed he was hopping funny. I pick him up, place my hand under his one back foot, and he put pressure on it to support himself, but...

My house bun, Hootie, got into some butter today. My roommate had it on a plate for her bagel, and didn't clean it up. Hootie helped himself to quite a bit apparently. He was acting kind of weird when I was about to leave for work today. He didn't want to come when he was called, and he...

I got this bun off Craiglist, and we were told he's a Flemish Giant, but he's not anywhere big enough for a 1 year old Flemish Giant. He's about 8-9 pounds, probably. When I did the breed identifier on this forum, it came up with the silver fox, and it does look like him, and the size and...

Recently, my friend got a second rabbit, but the new boy doesn't seem to like him at all, and he doesn't have to time for two, and the new boy has been a lone bun his whole life, and doesn't particular seem to like sharing a house with another. So, with this all in mind, my friend has made the...
