    Should I consider a second surgery for my girls?

    Hi All I’ve not been on the forum for a while, but some of you may recall I have 2 female buns named Gigi and Kiki. They are both rescues and I adopted them in 2020. I think they are around 4-5 years old, but cannot be totally sure. Before I adopted them, the kind lady who rescued them had...

    What is the best way to make a room neutral territory for bonding?

    I have 2 free-roam adopted buns, but I also foster rescue bunnies as well (I currently have 7 bunnies in a 2 bed apartment 😣). 2 of my fosters (Lady and Rufus) I have had for so long, that I have come to terms with the fact that they are foster-fails, because I am too in love with them to let...

    Infection Risk from Grooming?

    My bonded girls, Gigi and Kiki got into a tussle last week and Gigi was left with a bite, which didn’t look too bad initially, but became very sore and I took her to the vet the following day. She has now completed a course of Baytril. They are getting on again and the wound has been healing...

    Pellet Intolerance?

    One of my buns (Gigi) suffered from several gassy episodes last year and was eventually treated for GI stasis. I put her on a hay only diet for some time afterwards and slowly introduced a different brand of pellets (Zupreem Timothy Naturals). We had no tummy issues after that, but I have...

    Weight Gain

    Hi All I’ve not weighed her yet (because I need to buy suitable scales), but one of my buns, Gigi, is looking and feeling noticeably fuller than she was a few months ago. I have not changed her diet at all and if anything she is eating less pellets than before. My other bun does not appear...

    Young Bunny - Dark Poops

    Hi All I have a foster bunny who was rescued 1 month ago. His name is Noah and he is 4.5-5 months old according to the vet. He was extremely underweight when he was found and is filling out nicely, but is still quite thin. I currently feed him unlimited Timothy hay, a bunch of fresh mixed...

    Gas Drops

    Hi all Is anyone aware of a brand of gas drops which bunnies actually enjoy? I am currently treating my bun for GI stasis and she detests the stuff I have. It’s always a bit of a performance, she gets really annoyed and I’m sure most of it actually ends up down her chin. I was thinking of...

    GI Stasis Treatment

    My little Gigi has had her share of gas issues, so I’m pretty hot on picking up on changes in her behaviour. This evening she couldn’t get comfortable, would lay down and then jump up again and kept licking her sides. And of course would not eat. I tried simethicone, but it was apparent early...

    Fostering

    Hi everyone I have recently joined a FB group in Dubai which provides help and support to small animals, many of which have been abandoned. They frequently need foster spaces and I would really like to help, but I want to make sure I have done my homework first in terms of the impact it will...

    Where is the best place to put the carrier in a car?

    Hi All Unfortunately I’m going to have to take my sweet Gigi to the vet in a couple of days as her upset tummy issue just isn’t improving. Whenever I have transported the buns in the car, I have put their carrier in the rear footwell behind the front passenger seat, as I read that is the...

    Morning Tummy Troubles

    Hi everyone So my little Gigi has suffered from bouts of gas, fairly randomly, over the last few months. I have already made changes to improve her diet and they seemed to be working, until this week. She was checked by the vet not long ago and he could not find anything medically that is...

    72 Bunnies Being Rescued in the UK

    Hi All I know there are some fellow Brits on the forum and I’m trying to get the word out about a huge rescue operation which is ongoing today in the West Midlands. I follow a rescue in Warwickshire called Rabbits Burrows Haven and they posted this on their FB earlier: There is an emergency...

    First Christmas with Bunnies 🎄

    Hi All! Perhaps a little premature 😬 but I’d like to put up my tree next weekend. It’s my first Christmas with bunnies and I usually have tree lights, but not sure whether that’s possible anymore? Has anyone tried to bunny-proof fairy lights, or should I give up on the idea? And if they can...

    Baffled by Breakfast - Not a Morning Bunny?

    Hi All! I have 2 buns, who both lovvve food most of the time. Over the last few weeks though, one of them has been really quite fussy with her breakfast and i’m wondering what the cause is. She’s totally fine at other times of day. It doesn’t happen all the time, just on odd days. When it...

    Have the bunnies sprayed on my bed?

    Ok so this is a weird one, so i apologise, but I am completely baffled. I turned over in the night and woke up because the duvet felt damp. I turned the light on and there was a huge damp area which stretched across over half the width of the bed. It does have a smell, but it’s not strong or...

    Spayed Female Mounting Other Female?

    Hello! I have 2 girls, Gigi and Kiki, who are rescue bunnies and were already bonded when they were found. They were both spayed in June before I adopted them. This morning Kiki started chasing, nipping and eventually mounting Gigi 2 or 3 times. I think this happened last night too, because...

    Why is my Bunny Suddenly Chewing the Walls?

    So this is a totally new thing she has started doing over the last few days. I always felt blessed to have bunnies that have not been destructive at all really and the only real casualty has been a west elm cushion and a couple of pillows. We moved into this apartment about 10 days ago, with...

    Outdoor / Balcony Dangers

    Hi everyone I have recently moved to a new place with a nice big balcony on the 6th floor. It is just in line with the tops of some of the trees, which means I get to hear the birds and can sometimes forget I’m in a built-up city environment 😊 I would like to be able to to let the buns...

    Pellet Comparison

    Hi everyone Just thought I would share this link as I’ve found it helpful in deciding which pellets to buy: http://www.therabbithouse.com/diet/rabbit-food-comparison.asp I have a very limited selection available to me where I live. All of the pet shops stock Beaphar Care + (but not Beaphar...

    Move Day!

    We’re off to our new home, wish me luck 😬 It’s 5.30am and I’m about to get the girls’ stuff packed up and move them first, so they can get settled in a bit first. My plan was to close the door on their room to keep the noise and people out and only have me go in there during the course of the...
