    hi guys! unfortunately duke's had an upset tummy on Friday and we took him to the vet they said that his gut was very quiet and gave us some meds that help with stimulating the gut and reducing any pain he might have. We've been giving him the meds and he's been getting better, he's started to...

    Encouraging Rabbit With GI Stasis To Eat

    Hi Everyone! This weekend I noticed that Duke was sitting in the corner of his room and refusing to eat which began to worry me, I booked an emergency appointment and took him to the vet immediately. The vet said that he could not hear any gut movement and that Duke had GI stasis, he gave Duke...

    Bunny Proofing Garden Area

    Hey! I wanted to start letting the buns out in the garden in their x-pen for some roaming/play time, last time I did this they really enjoyed it even though I put the pen on the patio away from the grass. I would like to allow them on the grassy area of our garden since it's a lot bigger but...

    Moving buns to balcony?

    Hey guys! There's a chance we might end up moving back to our old apartment since I'm going to college next year and it's closer to my old place. Essentially as of now the buns are living in our utility area which is where we keep our washer and dryer so it's technically still indoors- they...

    Best rugs for rabbits?

    Hey guys! I've been looking for some rugs/mats for my buns and wanted to know if anyone had suggestions? I've tried foam mats with a flat rug on top but the buns chewed the foam, then I tried a large area rug but again the rabbits were destructive and pulled the fibres out of it, most recently I...

    How to give meds to bun?

    Hi! Duke has recently had a digestion issue and teeth problems so was prescribed two medicines, one of which we have to give three times a day and the other once a day. Duke hasn't been taking the meds voluntarily and the vet showed us how to place the syringe in the side of his cheeks so he is...

    bun being slow and not as active as before

    hi! recently Duke has been noticeably slow and not as active. He has been eating his pellets and some of his veggies (him and Bambi are both quite picky eaters with veggies so I was offering him his favourites which he was eating). Hay is always topped up daily and I see him in the litter box...

    Bambi has Stasis :(

    Hey guys, this morning I went to scatter feed the normal 2 tbsp of pellets and watched them eat and noticed that Bambi didn't eat, instead she went to the back and sat in a hunched position. I went over to give her a handful of hay, some water and some more pellets but she had nothing, the only...

    How to get rid of rabbit fur stuck deep in rug?

    Hey guys, So I have an area rug that I use to cover the tile flooring in our rabbit area. We recently adopted Duke and I have been trying to find out his shedding and moulting pattern, I brushed him regularly but it seems that I should have brushed him more as his moulted fur has gotten stuck...

    Concerns about hay box?

    Hey guys, I am slowly trying to improve the area the buns have by buying or moving things around to see what works best and was looking for a hay box for the buns. One of the reasons why I wanted a hay box is because I notice that usually when the hay is in their litter boxes it tends to get a...

    Hair loss in a patch?

    Hey guys, I was brushing Duke today (as he is shedding quite a bit) and noticed that he had an area of thin fur where he had lost hair. And ideas what it could be? I'll attatch a few pictures below sorry they aren't the clearest!. Is this something I need to visit the vet for? He and Bambi both...

    Rabbit Behaviour Change After Having A New Partner?

    Hey guys! Basically we bought Bambi and her brother Thumper almost a year ago, when we first bought them home they were scared and always hiding, but eventually Thumper came out of his shell. He loved being pet and stroked and loved hopping up onto the seat next to be at the desk whilst I was...

    Adopted bun has ring on his foot

    Hey everyone, as some of you may know, we adopted a rex called Duke who is a year and a half. We adopted him a few weeks ago and since then he has been such a sweet boy, zooming around and flopping everywhere. We noticed he has a mild case of sore hocks and bought memory foam mats and placed...

    Keeping rabbits warm in winter?

    Hey guys! I'm hoping to redo our rabbit room and get rid of the hutch so they have half of the room and that they will have more space. The problem is that our utility room doesn't have central heating but it is technically apart of our house. In the summer if it gets too hot we can open the...

    Hey guys! We brought back Bambi and her new partner Duke yesterday from their bonding weekend, or some may say honeymoon 😂, they aren't totally in love yet, they aren't fighting or nipping so all seems okay. Basically the shelter advised slowly increasing their space, so today i opened the...

    Hey everyone! Some of you may have seen my previous post about a name suggestion for a mini lop, but it turned out the bun we were originally interested in came back!

    Pellet Free Diet?

    Hey guys, I was on instagram this morning and I saw this post about a pellet free diet. The woman claimed to be an exotic vet that specialised in rabbits as well, and she said that rabbits over the age of 6 months shouldn't be fed pellets or alfafa. Obviously no alfafa after 6 months makes sense...
