    Bunny pee smells like... buttered popcorn?

    Hey All, I was cleaning out the buns litter pans when Trick decided I was taking too long, and pee'd on the floor. I watched him do it, so I quick ran over and cleaned it up right away. Totally fine, it's what I get for cleaning both boxes at the same time. Usually when Trick pees, the...

    Trick’s Fight w/ URI

    Just a quick update, we ended up applying the nasal drops for a total of 2 weeks, twice a day. I'm very happy with the results so far as symptoms have been beaten back down considerably, but I sorta wish the vet would have let us keep on for a bit longer, but he wants us to stop and wait to see...

    Trick’s Fight w/ URI

    Bad news... Relapse. T_T A week ago, I noticed that Trick sounded stuffy/congested when he would sniff, sneezing was slowly starting to increase day-by-day, and I've caught a few glimpses of discharge (though it's not enough to noticeably coat his paws). So I scheduled a follow up for today...

    Treat's Neuter - New to aftercare

    Just giving you all an update! Treat has been back to fully normal eating habits for a few days now, and his humping seems to have calmed down quite a bit. Yay! Last week, after the first 3 days of giving him pain meds, he started taking them with no restraint at all! My hands finally got a...

    Treat's Neuter - New to aftercare

    Thanks for the support guys! This morning I noticed that Treat hardly ate anything last night, so I mixed up some critical care and did my best to get SOMETHING in there. With much struggling, I gave him his meds. Then I tried syringe feeding critical care. I think I got him to take maybe a...

    Treat's Neuter - New to aftercare

    Hello all, I have two male rabbits, Trick and Treat. My original intention was to have the two of them neutered together, but Trick has been fighting an upper respiratory infection (talked about in another thread), and Treat has been getting pretty hormonal (spraying and humping his...

    Trick’s Fight w/ URI

    Sorry for not posting in awhile! Not much new to report. Still keeping on with the marbofloxacin for Trick's infection. At first, he didn't take the meds well, and his sneezing got much worse. But all the sudden he started lapping it up, and that's when he started getting better and better...

    Trick’s Fight w/ URI

    Ok, I have the results. The culture shows heavy growth of both acinetobacter and enterobacter bacteria. So Trick has been prescribed marbofloxacin (0.1ml once daily for 30 days, tutti-frutti flavored yum!). Fingers crossed that this is the ticket!

    Trick’s Fight w/ URI

    Another update! We finished the round of of Azithromycin last Thursday, and have been waiting for the results from the nasal swab. Trick's sneezing has been terrible the last few days, and he often naps. He has a great appetite though. Starting to look kinda chubby, lol. Treat is still...

    Trick’s Fight w/ URI

    We brought Trick to the vet again. Technically, I wasn't supposed to schedule another appointment until AFTER the 10 days of Azithromycin, but I panicked yesterday and scheduled a visit for him this morning (day 8 of treatment). Sunday was a very sneezy/snotty day for him, and he got pretty...

    Trick’s Fight w/ URI

    Thanks Kinai! Just had a wipe-down session with him. He's does ok if I gently grip his chest, let his front paws drape over that hand, and rest his bum against my chest, keeping my other hand free. That's how I hold him to give antibiotics. I soaked a cloth with warm water and a bit of...

    Trick’s Fight w/ URI

    Hello All, I’m hoping to document my bun’s fight with an upper respiratory infection here. Feel free to move the thread if this isn’t the appropriate place. Sorry, I’m new! I have two buns, Trick (black bun) and Treat (orange bun)! Having brought them home at about 8 weeks of age...

    Trick & Treat, new buns on the block!

    Hello All, Introducing Trick and Treat! Trick is the black bun, and Treat is the orange bun. My hubby is obsessed with Halloween, and just HAD to name them for me. :rofl: These little guys are about 10 weeks old now (I got them at 8 weeks old), and have very different personalities. Trick...
