bunny hypochondria

does anyone else get bunny hypochondria ?
what with moses' eye sunday night ( totally cleared up now so think it was just something in his eye rather than anything serious) i was hugging him today and his bits were pulsing again. but i think its his bum not his man bits ( sorry i'm trying to be as clean as possible :lol: ) is this normal. is it something to do with bunny boy puberty ? i was slightly concerned. :?
 
I don't know why your boys bits are pulsing, but I do know after a scare this morning with Murray that you can never be a bunny hypochondriac - they can't tell us what's wrong, so we have to be extra alert with them.

I guess we won't panic the more we learn, but I'd rather err on the side of caution and either post something here or take a trip to the vet :D
 
well he's only little so think plums will come any time soon so think it might be bunny puberty so his bits are getting excited - i might be wrong thou. i'm a bit worried that it was his bum thou. but yet again i might be wrong.
 
Before Bertie was done, he used to kind of um....well thrust :oops: :shock: at me when I picked him up... he doesn't do it now..
 
Snowflake suffers terribly with hypochondria --- UNTIL I put my debit card in the machine at the vets then she gets all better somehow! :evil:
 
Funny, I ws wondering if I was a bit of a bunny hyerchondriac myself today; but, having just got back from the vets, I think I was right. We are going away for a few days next week, was cleaning out yesterday and thought Peppers wasn't eating as much or as easily as he should have been ( rolling small amount of food round his mouth before giving up). He lives with a bunny 'food hoover' so there's never a second chance or 'I'll got back for some more later' opportunities:lol: :lol: so I thought I'd just get his mouth checked out in case he'd got problems again ( had front teeth removed about a year ago and had spurs at the back). My thinking was I didn't want my neighbour to have to deal with a poorly bunny not eating next week.
I wondered if I might be over reacting as Pepper's is still eating, looking well and active, but just know how quick it can all go wrong if they stop!:shock: Anyway the vet asked me if I couldn't stay away:oops: ( VHD jabs 2 weeks ago) to which I replied I'd be back in another 2 weeks for more VHD jabs:lol: :lol: He did confirm 2 ulcers and one tooth growing back, so he's booked in for a dental tomorrow now. At least he should be well next week, so as Tony says maybe it's better to be a hyperchondriac and safe?:D
 
Odd.
I was thinking only earlier whether I was a bunny hypochondriac.
I figured I've transferred quite a bit of hypochondria towards myself, onto the bunnies. o_o; and also realised that knowing more about bunny illness both reassures me and scares me. I can't work out if I was happier when I was completely ignorant with my first rabbit... or now that I know what to look for and stuff.
 
I am getting less of hypo. as time passes, and we get to know him and his ways, but I had it bad for the first 4 months!
Like you Casu, I found that the more I read, the worse it was. I've read as much as I can read now, so am trying to relax a bit with it, without loosing dilligence.
I even posted on here once wether I should be worried cos Bertie had sneezed :oops:
 
I dont know if I am a Bunny Hypochondriac but I do have a Hypochondriac Bunny

Careful. :D That bun will get ideas, reading that book... Next time he wants a fuss he'll just act of symptoms from page 10 and watch you come running...

Actually, I think my boy does that! :shock: Acts sick - just for me - so I fuss him.
