my rabbit has gas again this morning. ive given her some simethicone and got her to eat a little bit of lettuce and some pellets earlier, and she was running around for a little bit but now she seems to be getting worse. i have some metaclopramide left over from her last vet visit in october...

Are there any types of lettuce that aren't safe to feed rabbits other than iceberg? I got some lettuce plants from a greenhouse labeled "green ice" and I didnt know if it was safe to feed my bun or not. I also have some grand rapids lettuce planted for her that I wasnt sure about.

My rabbit was digging around in her litterbox and then peed in the corner without litter and got pee all over her bottom from it. Should I let her clean it off herself or wipe her off? I know its very stressful for rabbits to get wet and she's already cleaned herself down there some since. I've...

Hmm that could be possible. I usually have it in my bedroom or right outside in the hall. I went and bought another bag today and she's still not eating from this one either. If I hand the pieces to her she's eating some of them, but if I just give her a pile of it she grunts at me and turns her...

My rabbit will only eat oxbow hay. Today I got her a new bag because she ran out, and now she won't eat it. The new bag looks the same as the last one did to me but it's not good enough for her. She hasn't eaten a single bite of hay all night. She does this almost everytime I have to get her a...

I'll do that, thanks. I just gave her some of her gut motility meds, metaclopramide I think? She's supposed to get 0.1ml every 6-8 hours. I also just gave her some cc, I got a good bit in her but it took a very long time because she wouldnt swallow it. I listened to her belly and she does have a...

After a few minutes of putting hay in her face she ate two strands! Its not much but at least it's some improvement. I feel so bad for bothering her like this but when shes like this sometimes shoving it in her face for a while is the only thing that will get her to eat. When she ate the hay she...

I'm not sure if she looked at the back molars but she did look at her teeth and said they were fine. I actually just woke up to check on her and shes in the exact same spot as she was when I went to sleep. I gave her some simethicone an hour ago and layed some food in front of her and it's still...

I ended up taking her to the vet. She said that she heard gurgles in her belly so she isnt in stasis. She gave me fluids, metacam, baytril, and gut motility meds. I'm back home now and she still wont eat. I gave her the pain meds about an hour ago and the gut motiliy one and another pain meds...

This morning my rabbit wouldnt eat and seemed like she had gas (she gets gas everytime she sheds even though i brush her). I gave her gas medicine every hour for 3 hours and eventually she got up and ate 2 pieces of cilantro. Then she ran and hid for another hour. Now she's running around...

I think she was just trying to worry me, she just ate a big pile of hay 🙄 As you can tell I worry way too much about her haha. She got stasis earlier this year and she's my first rabbit so I get very nervous when she does anything like this 😮‍💨

A few weeks ago I had a problem with my rabbit barely eating hay. At the time I was feeding her 2 tablespoon pellets daily. I decreased it to 1 tablespoon and that helped a lot. She started eating a LOT of hay and every night I would give her 3 big handfuls and in the morning it would be...

Hmm I can't think of anything you're missing, but I would definitely buy cord protectors if you have any cords in the room where the bunny will be in. I got mine at lowes for just a few dollars. My rabbit has chewed through so many cords in just a few seconds when I've had my back turned 😮‍💨 Now...

I keep finding what looks like scabs in pumpkin's mane. I believe this is the 3rd one I've found within the past 3 or 4 weeks. She doesnt seem to be itching a whole lot more, is this normal? At first she was due for a nail trimming and I thought that maybe since her nails were a little long that...

i was just checking my rabbit's litterbox and found a LOT of gnats flying around it. can these hurt her at all or cause flystrike? i just cleaned it again but now they're flying around her pen. how can i get rid of them? her pen is not dirty at all and her blankets were just changed out...

No, she used to eat that much now she doesnt. I would say she eats a pile half the size of her body everyday. I think I may know what the problem is though. I dont know why I never thought of this, I switched her hay brand recently because the store was all out of her regular hay, but they have...

Hi, I just wanted to ask your opinions on my rabbits diet and if i should increase/decrease anything. In the morning she gets 1/2 cup of veggies and 1 tablespoon oxbow simple harvest pellets. I recently increased her morning veggies to 1 cup, but then she barely ate any hay so I brought it back...

Yep I know all about that 😂 Pumpkin is very particular about how she wants things and gets upset with me if I don't do something right lol. I just checked and it's all the same ingredients. Thanks :)

Oh and I forgot to add this, but I recently bought her a new bag of (the same) pellets. They are a lighter color than normal, but I'm assuming that's okay? It's the exact same kind so it should still be the same ingredients.

So I recently started giving my rabbit 2 cups of veggies a day instead of 1.5, then i ended up changing it back to 1.5 cups a day because she wasnt eating enough hay. Ever since I decreased it 2 days ago, she's been acting weird. In the morning she always waits for me to wake up, and then she...
