Hello! I have an almost 5y old bunny, and my husband and I are considering to adopt a baby kitten early next year. Muffin (my bunny) is very calm and confident, laid back bunny. He's travelling with us a lot, and was interacting with cats and dogs before - he just loves our parents dogs, they...

stevesmum, I guess it is a very rough nips, Muffin clearly dislikes them a lot, but skin or fur are not broken.. Bonding Day 2: Morning Today I made about 15min long date. I setup everything the same. In the beginning I petted them both for some time. When I stopped, Miffy started nipping...

stevesmum, Thank you for your reply! Nice to hear that's this is not a rough start.. I am very worried whether bunnies are gonna get along. Muffin now flopped near the couch and Miffy is sleepy in her cage - I guess I am worrying more than they :) Is biting normal during bonding? Not like the...

I am currently trying to bond my 1y 9m old neutered male mini lop Muffin and about 5-7 month old spayed girl Miffy. Muffin lived with me since he were a baby and we adopted Miffy about a month ago. Muffin is very gentle, calm and lazy, laid back bunny and Miffy is nervous, very curious and...

JBun, I am not sure about the severity - it is usually about 3-5 caecals in the morning. By the day I can see her with the head ducked in the bum, so I assume she eats the rest. About hay - both my bunnies are not huge hay eaters, but since they get limited greens/vegs and pellets, they have...

JBun, thank you for your reply! I feed SS to my other bunny, so when Miffy arrived I gave her both brands: Burgess and SS to see which one she likes most. And SS has more fibre, so I mixed them. She is used to both brands by now. I am aware that I can't switch her to unknown pellets overnight...

Hi everyone! My lionhead girl, Miffy has a poopy butt history back in shelter and had tiny dry poops. She was fed muesli. When I took her in, I started feeding her Burgess Excel pellets for adults and her poops are now round and big, just as my other bunny's droppings. Her excess caecotrophs...

Hi everyone! I have a neutered male Mini Lop rabbit. He is 1y 9month old now and lives with me since he were a baby. He is very calm, gentle, lazy and laid back, loves to flop and cuddle. On 26th August, I brought home from cat&dog shelter a tiny lionhead girl, about 5-6 month old. She was...

Thank you! I also contacted HRS by email and they advised unlimited pellets, too, said he may be having a malnutrition and has a lot a catch up to. I just gave him 10g of pellets and in about 30m 5grams are already gone. He ate some hay, too. The thing with KMR is, that it is not clear whether...

Hi, I'm fostering 3-3.5 weeks old orphaned baby bunny. He stopped drinking KMR formula ~2 days ago. He's eating hay, drinking water and I give him Burgess Excel pellets. He can eat about 10g in 12 hours. He's feeling well, binking, eating, drinking and pooping normally. I think he could...

It is not known what happened to mom - lady that brought them to the shelter said that she just found babies on the road, but it didn't sound too convincing. Photos of babies can be seen here: http://majastrusis.lv/sesi-trusu-berni-patversme-dzivnieku-draugs/

All bunnies are eating well. The weakest bun still is smaller than others, but he has a great appetite and is moving around a lot. After consulting with rabbit shelter from Poland, our vet gave him an injection for strength. It is still not 100% clear, whether he will make it, but so far he...

Thumperina, woahlookitsme, thank you for your reply. We were not going to introduce adults and babies in the first place, just to keep babies for few weeks due to often feeding time. As everything is going well with caring for them in shelter, we decided not to bring them home, so we don't...

Hello! I am writing from Latvia, Europe. We don't have any rabbit rescuers here unfortunately and I really need you advice for caring of orphaned baby rabbits. There are 6 baby rabbits, 9-12 days old, that were brought to the cat&dog shelter today. One is really weak and small. We are...

Hi, There are 6 orphaned baby rabbits at the local shelter. They are about 9-12 days old. This is a cat&dog shelter and they don't know how to care about bunnies, there are no rabbit rescuers in a country. Me and my husband could probably volunteer to take them home and feed/care for them...

Hi everyone! Today we adopted a bunny. She looks like Lionhead and were sterilised about 2 months ago. Picture is attached. When she came to shelter, she was completely missing her tail and part of her ear. There is no sign of infection and looks like whatever happened took place some time...
