Morning everyone Dusty is currently an inpatient with our usual vets after a nasty UTI and subsequent gi stais (inpatient since Monday) Her blood results this morning have shown raised liver enzyme ALT (616, higher end ofnormal range is 60) and our vet has suggested a liver ultrasound to...

Anyone ordered from https://www.hay-and-straw.co.uk recently? Usually always order from there but I’m having real trouble getting the website to work at the moment despite trying on my phone and iPad. I’ve tried contacting them by email but the e-form on the website doesn’t go through as the...

Hi :) We have just taken on a new bun who is now besties with our bun Axl....they have bonded well although she is unwell with UTI currently. We know from her previous owner that she has had occasional issues with bladder sludge before, so I’ve been doing my research about how best to reduce...

Anyone have any tips from stopping your buns nibbling bedding?? I recently bought Axl two pieces of vetbed as he had some red looking hocks last time he was seen at the vet....but we've had to take the one we opened up because we caught him biting chunks out the side :roll: so now I'm stuck with...

Axl recently had a nasty bout of stasis which involved a week at the vets (our local vets and specialist). He had a cannula in his left ear and when we came home he had a small scab on the edge of His ear which we assumed was from where he'd had the cannula. We've come home todayto find a random...

Axl was due his RVHD2 vaccine on Sat last week so we could finally get him a wifeybun (we lost his sister just prior to Xmas) but he stopped eating the same day so instead the vets reviewed him for stasis and started him on gut stimulants and pain relief. We managed him at home sat-mon during...

Rose stopped eating at the weekend and when we got to the vets it turned out she had a nasty abscess that had sent her into stasis. Unfortunately she passed away at the vets before we managed to get her home :( She leaves behind her brother Axl who is very lonely without her, so we are already...

I Was at the vets at the weekend as Rose was in stasis due to a mouth abscess and burgess dual care was recommended by my vets as a recovery food after I said that neither of my buns like critical care and so we usually just mash their normal pellets Never got to try it with Rose as she passed...

Apologies if this has been asked before (I'm sure it has) but I couldn't find anything with the search My MIL has three bunnies (a pair and a singleton) that live indoors in two separate rooms. Today she found her singleton bun with head tilt and nystagmus. After a vet visit earlier this...

I transitioned my buns to SS quite a long time ago and they were previously on RR. I've just had a clean out of a cupboard and found a old, opened (but pegged shut) bag in which there is about 2/3kg of food left. The bag has a expiry date if October 2013 Is it likely to still be edible? If so...

This might sound abit random so sorry! Rose is one of my mini lops, and we trim her nails ourselves (indoor bunny on carpet, lives with her brother Axl) Whilst trimming them today we noticed that the inner most nail on her left paw had grown and was curved funny (I suspect I may have missed it...

Wasn't quite sure whether to post this in health or diet/digestion! A few months ago Axl had an impaction from which is he is fully recovered. I brought some fibreplex online for him to have but it didn't arrive in time before he was better so I still have it in the drawer. The impaction was...

My MIL volunteers at a local inner city farm that regularly has bunnies 'dumped' or handed over by people wanting to get rid of their buns. They are obviously not a rescue but take the buns in out of kindness etc and they ultimately try to rehome them but do not routinely spay as they are a...

I ordered the buns some meadow hay from hay for pets on Tuesday - it arrived very speedily yesterday but got taken in by a neighbour so I could only pick it up this morning On getting it home I noticed the hay is very damp (I've pulled out some from the middle and it's damp too) and there is...

I have a bare patch in my garden that we initially dug out as an area for the buns to run around but we have now changed our mind. I'd like to fill it with evergreen plants that flower, that are rabbit safe. The buns will not be free roaming outside but I'd like them to be bunny safe so I could...

I often buy axl and rose the balls from wilko made from Seagrass etc (these ones http://www.wilko.com/small-animal-toys/wilko-fun-ball-trio-for-small-animals/invt/0303671), they love the water hyacinth one especially, and until now never seem to have had any problem. I looked at the water...

Hi :) Am i still right in thinking that the advice is to not give courses of panacur for worms or ec unless symptomatic? If so where would I find any evidence or literature to support this? Asking on behalf of MIL whose vet says she should be Thanks!

Axl and Rose have decided they quite like te taste of the door to their room and keep nibbling it despit the numerous other chewing toys they have. Is there anything plastic or metal we could screw to the edge to stop/discourage them?

:wave: I found one in the cupboard if you still want it (its the metacam syringe that came with 0.5mg/ml strength for cats box)

Rose was off her pellets this morning (ate 3 plus a few we hand fed her). Trialled her with a few other things, she ate half of everything and then left the rest, but did some big massive golden pops so had obviously been eating over night Took her to the vet who Did a thorough check - only...
