Iggy Mini lop D.O.B. 7/23/09 (4 months old) History: Mother of litter surrendered with 7 other buns to a local shelter. I fostered this litter, so I've had Iggs since the day he was born. Litter of 10. Several "runts" in the litter. For Iggy (and several other babies) I had to hold the mom...

I saw a really cute video of a bunny named Simon walking upright: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BBKLsnL11s Impressed, I decided to try to train Iggy, my 3 month old lop. Here's day two of training (and me fiddling with the camera to try and get a good shot, craisin in the other hand, which...

1. Bell peppers: Are the seeds & stem edible? I always cut them out and pull out the fleshy inner ridges.. but is that necessary or am I wasting food that they could be eating? 2. Hay: I recently purchased 2 bales of hay from a feed store. They told me it was a first cut Timothy, Brome...

As many of you have read, these are the remaining babies available from my foster litter of 10 born on 7/23/09. Handled from day one and mother rabbit was very friendly. Mother rabbit & 7 others were surrendered to the humane society, 3 gave birth within the first week or two there. 6 babies...

I lost my 2.5 year old bunny on 9/23/09 after over a week long battle with GI issues. We still don't know what caused his problems. It has been a terrible year for us. We have several pets and have lost at least one almost every month. Though it still isn't easy, we can cope with the loss of a...

Wally 2.5year old New Zealand White Residual head tilt from past (at rescue): unknown cause. Adopted April 09 No health issues since. Last night seemed fine. Alert, active. Today he had been sitting under a chair all day. I didn't think it was strange until he moved and I noticed what...

I just ordered their new expandable guinea pig cage (because I found it for about the same as the cubes & coroplast I was going to use to build a GP cage), and I came across their new rabbit cage. It seems like a good idea, though I'm not sure of the dimensions. It's expandable, so you could...

Heard squealing coming from the baby bunny pen and went in to find one rabbit chasing the others around, biting at them. They are only a little over 7 weeks now. I picked the baby up and tried to settle him down. Once I put him back he started chasing the other rabbits again. Not any one rabbit...

I'm fostering a litter of 10 lops (we are keeping one). I'm trying to find homes on my own as the shelter is overloaded and I'm worried about where they end up. I live near Boston, MA and work in Lowell, MA. I am willing to transport them within a reasonable distance. Potential adopters...

He will be 2 weeks old tomorrow. Eyes opened yesterday. Eyelid on the left side is open, but eye is sunken in. Has anyone seen this before? He won't open the lid voluntarily and does scratch at it sometimes. His teeth seem like they may be mildly misaligned as well. And he has had a bald patch...

First, the pictures: The humane society had 8 rabbits surrendered. 2 gave birth within days. They fostered out both litters. A third was VERY pregnant. I offered to foster (the alternative was the babies were euthanized when they were born, or an emergency spay was done.. in...

I had a hamster a few years ago and I've wanted another since.. for some reason I've held off until now. Here's the new guy?.. He's too tiny to really tell just yet. He came from a breeder. The babies in the litter got milk poisoning (I think?) and 6 out of 15 survived after the mom was treated...

My foster rabbit has some issues, I'm looking for some input or ideas of what it could be. She came to me as a special needs case considering her history of diarrhea. I took her to the vet when I first got her (several weeks ago). So here's the history: At rescue: -diarrhea? -increased...

What feeding time is like at my place...

The photos of this bunny show urine stained feet and I worry that he's either kept in dirty conditions or has a medical issue. I'm sure he's not neutered, and perhaps his feet are dirty because of spraying around his cage.. but he clearly needs a decent owner who can keep him clean. I would...

We just got a new guinea pig as a companion for our older boy, hoping to keep him active and happy. Our intention was to get a female and have her spayed... as it turns out, the "female" guinea pig I drove to NH to get is obviously a male. Fortunately our other pig gets along well with him. As...

Has anyone had acupuncture on their bunny with a residual head tilt? If so: -What sort of results did you end up with? -How frequently are treatments performed? -Is there a list of Acupuncturists who treat rabbits? -Are there any recommended in the MA/NH area? (I live in the Boston area and...

So Wally had surgery a few weeks ago and has healed up great. We started trying to bond the bunnies again. Every time she has the chance, Toot will bite Wally. He, having a head tilt, freaks out, rolls over and tries to bite anything in his path when this happens. Needless to say, even a nip...

Just wondering if anyone here does rabbit sitting in MA or knows of a good rabbit sitter. I'm going to be going away for about 5 days in August and I'd prefer to have someone with rabbit experience watch my two buns. Craigslist skeeves me out and I don't know where else to look... Ideally...
