    One year since we lost our Lola...

    I thought I'd write a little post, since it was a year ago today that we lost Lola, when they put her under anesthetic to be spayed. I can't believe a year has gone by already...I still miss her so much. I have a framed photo on my desk, of her sitting on my back. I look at it every day...

    Penelope is acting strange...Please help!

    Penelope is lying down and seems uncomfortable. Her tail is down, and when we nudge her to move, it stays down and she just finds another place to lie down. I don't know what to do, I don't know what this could mean...please help!!!

    Rupert's tummy is making loud noises. RESOLVED

    Craisins

    Since I have read that so many buns on here love Craisins, I bought a package (the Ocean Spray brand). I noticed on the package it says they are sweetened (sugar added). Is this okay? Is this the type everyone here gives their rabbits as a treat? Of course, I will be giving them very...

    Eye grooming

    Penelope loves to groom Rupert's eyes, and I noticed this morning that one of his eyes is bald right above the eye and has a little red spot that almost looks like it could have been bleeding. I know that I read that many RO members' bonded bunnies groom each others eyes, but is this red...
