Hey all, I just moved to the NYC area (Manhattan) and am looking to get involved with a rescue. I know of one rabbit-oriented rescue org, but they don't seem to have a contact person or regular adoption events/ongoing volunteer foster program. I requested to join their mailing list yesterday...

My boyfriend just adopted a small, probably dwarf mix lionhead from our local rabbit rescue. Everything is fine, except this little bugger tears through everything we feed him! He is about 6-8 months old, weighs 4 lbs. His diet consists of 1/4 cup of Oxbow timothy pellets, a veggie plate every...

Now that I think about it it's probably just wet pellets. Here's an image anyway:

Hi everyone, I'm a little troubled by what I found today in the bunny cage. I've been fostering a bonded lop pair for about half a month now. It took a little while for them to be litter trained not to go on the carpet, but they learned quick. Today however, I found a pile of what looked like...

Last week, I got some distressing news from my sister, who was taking care of my bun. Shadow had started to diarrhea, and he seemed to lose control of his hind legs. He had fallen and injured himself when getting out of his litter box. That afternoon, my sister discovered him laying with his...

Hi everyone, As some of you know, my bunny recently passed away from old age. I'm not ready yet to get a new bun but in the meanwhile I'd like to foster. I'm a college student so I'm home most of the time aside from classes. I live in a apartment with three other roommates (one of which is my...

Thanks everyone. I am saddened but not devastated by this. I knew it was coming, and he did live a good, long life. My parents are going to bury it in our front yard and plant a lychee tree in his honor.

Shadow was a 9.5 year old all-black dwarf mix who passed this morning. I'm in New York for an internship so I wasn't able to be with him at his last hour. I wish I could have seen him in his last days. My family, who was looking after him, said he had barely suffered, just lost control of his...

Easter picdump! For some reason Picassa's not allowing me to insert images sooo... Picdump Enjoy!

1) Got mine at Pet Supermarket 2) No health problems for a good 8 years. I just had to get his teeth trimmed, and he's having issues w/ dehydration and being underweight, but those are probably just from age. 3) If I were to get another rabbit, I would do it through a local rescue. As of...

Yay! I am heading to NYC this summer for a paid internship with AXA Equitable. Needless to say, I'm super excited. Finding an apartment has so far been fruitless. I even almost got scammed once! It's so hard to find anywhere as an out-of-state student for a short period of time for a couple...

He gets timothy based pellets from Oxbow. I switched over from an alfalfa-based diet because the vet pointed out that his calcium level was a bit high (when we did a blood work.) That's why I'm not too keen on feeding him more alfalfa, since his kidneys probably aren't working as well due to old...

This might seem strange since most people I know have problems with overweight bunnies, but mine needs to put ON weight. The vet said I should feed a supplement of Critical Care every day, but he didn't specify on how much or how often. Does anyone have any advice about a weight gain diet...

Congrats and keep us posted! My rabbit is a store-bought one too. Most people I know who've bought rabbits from the pet score ended up with tragedy because they died so quickly (probably from the pet stores not taking very good care of them in the first place.) But mine happens to still be alive...

My rabbit does the same thing, and he's 2.8 lbs, 9 years old. He'll push at my hand and even nip me if he doesn't think I'm setting his bowl down fast enough! I think most rabbits just find it extremely tasty.

Thanks for the spring break wishes. I had a very relaxing break, and Shadow did very well at my bf's place, although I was told he made quite the mess... silly bun. Once I got us all back from break I decided to try something new for Shadow's litter box, since he's been peeing and pooing...

Those dwarfies are adorable! Haha, my bun loves suitcases as well, although he likes chewing on them more. Don't they slip on the hardwood floor though?

Shadow just had his checkup today and the vet didn't find anything too worrisome. He is a little bit dehydrated, underweight, and he did hurt his back a little, but they are all probably related to his age. He's an old man! Tomorrow is the start of my spring break and Shadow is going to my...

Gainesville! (Go Gators)

Hey all! I just got back from a trip to Atlanta for an interview (crossing my fingers.) Shadow's due for a vet visit this Friday as well. Here's a few things that have been troubling him lately: Molar spurs: He had them trimmed in mid February, and is doing just fine! I finally found a good...
