Just wondering? Button has been really sick with an ear infection, but this morning he started having involuntary twitches. Nothing major, just like a quick little shiver maybe every 1/2 hour or so. This morning he also was having more trouble getting around. He'd been off balance because of the...

I have a little 1.5 lb Netherland Dwarf named Button who has a really bad ear infection, so much so that he's off balance and unsteady when he hops. He had a big glob of hardened discharge and gross pusin his ear that the vet removed so that helped somewhat. He also has an eye infection. His...

Jessie has had head tilt since April 27. I’ve posted a few other questions about it and got some great information from several people. Thank you! So I thought I’d write an update in the hope that some people with head tilt experience will read it. Plus, I found it very helpful to search...

My vet gave my girl with head tilt a thorough look with one of those scopes that go into the ear and saw no infection. I was just looking over my receiptfor all the services she got that day. It looks like the only lab work that is being done with her blood is for EC. Not an ear infection. So I...

I was wondering if anyone has used Meclizine for their head tilt bunniesto help with dizzyness and how has it worked out?Also, how long after taking it should it be in their system and "work"? Does it make bunnies sleeping like motion sickness meds for people do? One of my girls has head...

My new girl, who I call Jessie or Jessica (formerly known as Jazzy), was spayed on February 2. She spent a few weeks recuperating, and she and my boy Button started dating again a few days ago. Well, she seems no less "attracted" to him than before the spay. He's been pretty tolerant, but she's...

I got a flyer in the mail from the Humane Society saying they are offering a class called "Tellington TTouch for Little Critters". The description says "Bring your rabbit or guinea pig with you and learn hands on how to use specific gentle touches to help release tension in stressful situations...

I'm thinking about getting a new partner for my littleguy Button. He lost both his companion bunnies a few months ago. The reason I ask this question is because I only got abonding partner through abunny date once. The girl I got was friendly and had a sweet temperment at the date (held at the...

Sherry's going through some health issues and everything I've been reading stresses the importance of staying well hydrated. She drinks water from her bowl, but just to see if she'd like it or if it would increase her fluid intake, I made her a dish of 1/2 water, 1/2 orange flavored Pedialite...

Sherry currently weights 1.7 lbs (she should be about 2.5 lbs). I can't get to the vet to pick up some Metcam until tomorrow night after work so I was thinking of trying baby Motrin. The smallest dose I saw onother threads was 1/4 tablet for a bun just under 3 lbs (Pipp). WouldSherry take...

I wrote last night about the troubles Sherry is having with her back legs. Up until this afternoon she was still getting around well and didn't seem to have any pain. However, now she isn't getting around much and she can't keep her left leg underneath her at all. It slips out to the side...

Sherry has always had one back leg that is a little crooked and has arthritis. The vet thinks it was probably a fracture that wasn't treated (before I had her). It's never seemed to bother her or slow her down. Well, over the past week I've been noticing that both her backlegs have become...

I was reading about the grass mats at World Market so I went to check them out. It was my first time there. What a great strore! Anyway...The mats came in 3 shades- the really light ones like they used to have at Pier One, a light tan, and a darker tan/brown. My question is, are the darker...

I've ordered boxes of Bunny Bale hay several times and my bunnies go absolutely crazy over it. After gettingBB, they basically wouldn't eat Oxbow anymore. This time the hay it is quite a bit different than usual and none of them are eatingmuch of it. It's much stiffer and lighter green. When I...

My girl Vivienne (in the avatar) hopped onto my laptop keyboard and pressed some keys that turned my screen sideways. I can't figure out how to get it back to normal! I've pressed lots of combinations of keys and scrolled through all the help topics with no luck. Does anyone know how to fix...

My cat tried to use one of the rabbit's litterboxes tonight and most of it went over the edge and into the carpet and onto the baseboard. I saw it happen, but I couldn't catch her in time to stop her. Ugh! I tried to soak up as much as I could right away and also used vinegar and water and a...

When I got Button from the shelter he weighed 1.9 lbs. I took he and his partner Sherry to the vet today and, while Sherry lost1/2 lb, Button GAINED 1/2 a lb. Sherry has some problems with her molars and I think I waited too long to have them filed, which is probably why she was eating less...

I got the holiday cards today! They are great! Even cuter than the pictures you had on the thread :) They were packaged really well and arrived in perfect shape. I sent my check to Haley about two days ago for the PayPal account. Everyone....time is running out! If you haven't already done...

I was wondering if there have been any threads in the pastof buns in Christmas "costumes" or outside in a winter-type of scene.There is one of Tumnus in a Santa hat that's really cute and I was just wondering if there are some others. I think I've seen pictures of the adorable Pebbles in the...

I picked up some PenG Procaine from the vet on Friday. I put it in my purse and forot to put it in the refrigerator when I got home. Is it ruined?
