    Can too much fresh grass make a bunny overweight?

    My bunnies had both been about 2.5kg, early this year they were both about 2.7kg. I had asked my vet if they were overweight but she said she could feel their bones etc and didn't think so. Hazel has been unwell with sniffles recently (posted on another thread) but she has still been eating...

    Can you add oral Baytril to a treat/nuggets and let the rabbit take it that way?

    Hi, Hazel has been sneezing, had yellow nasal discharge etc. The vet gave her Baytril for 1 week. I also asked for a test for Pasteurella, our vets lab doesn't do it but she found one that does and we're just waiting for results. The reason I wanted to test for it was because my old bunny...

We have had Shadow since about february, he was estimated about 1-2 years then so he is probably between 2-3 years now. He has one hear that is permanantly up and the other is a...

    Would you give up?

    Earlier in the year I was on here getting advise about bonding Hazel and Shadow, they are a very difficult bond. We have been trying for a long time and Shadow was only getting to stay if they could be bonded (the rescue said they would have him back if it didn't work out). But we have of course...

    I am taking on a rescue bunny soon, a female approx. 2-3 years old. I should be getting her the end of this month/beginning December. She has not been spayed.

    Gingerbread and pasty urine, too much calcium!

    Gingerbread is nearly 8 years old, we got him from the SSPCA when he was about 4. He has always had a problem tolerating grass, and most veg, he will have massive squidgy poo messes.

    Panacur possible intolerance.

    Hi, I just thought I would make a new post in case anyone finds similar problems with the panacur. My 8 year old bunny was ill last august with a suspected stroke. I had never given panacur before as she is an indoor bunny so I didn't think I needed to. Another possible cause of her problem was...

    My bunny is 8 years old and hasn't been doing too well. The last few weeks she has been doing very well and I was so pleased with her progress. Yesterday at about 2pm my partner noticed her breathing really fast but just thought she must have been running around, he didn't mention to me. I...

    Sammy has stopped eating her nuggets.

    Looking for some advise. Some people might know Sammy (8 years old female) has been unwell. She seemed to finally be on the mend. I won't go into all the details as there has been a lot going on. One thing was her drooling a lot. This has finally stopped. She seemed to be eating very well for...

    8 year old bunny with suspected stroke

    Sammy is an 8 year old female bunny, I believe she is some sort of lion head dwarf cross. She lives indoors and has her own room, we have another bunny, Gingerbread but they would not bond so they are separate other than smooching sessions. Yesterday I came home and found her in the corner of...

    Bunny weepy eyes

    Hi, I'm looking for advise. I have had Sammy for about 5/6 years. Last December she had a bit of a weepy eye, I kept an 'eye' on it and it seemed to clear up. But it came back so just after Christmas I took her to the vets. The weeping didn't seem sticky, no gunk, here eye didn't look inflamed...
