    What food for sore mouth

    He had his booster yesterday. He wasnt given pain relief as he has shown no sign of discomfort - I wanted to get his teeth checked before it got to that stage and luckily I was in time. The spurs arent actually rubbing against his tongue - YET. It is only this morning I have noticed he was...

    Advice on toilet training

    I have 2 bunnies (both from rescue) who are house rabbits but kept in seperate hutches as they fight. I have had both rabbits for 2 years and neither are toilet trained. The female isnt too bad as she keeps it all to 1 area (the corner of her bed!!) so it is relatively easy to clean, however...

    Better Bunny Homes - Hutch/Playhouse/Shed/Run covers

    Could you also give me the website/phone number for bobtail bunnies. I have seen them advertised in my vets and p@h and wanted to book my 2 bunnies in when I go away for the weekend in April - good to hear the positive feedback about them aswell. I am in Teignmouth.

    Well surprise surprise he is back to normal!!! Yesterday we caught him 'playing' us on a few occassions - when he could see or hear us he would lie down in the corner looking sad then as soon as we left the room (and peeped round the door so he couldnt see us) he was up, jumping around and...

    Gizmo update

    We agreed to give him until Friday as he had some more anti-inflamatory, painkiller and antibiotic at the vets on Wednesday. He is also known to sulk after an op and be a bit of a diva - he has done it before, refuses to eat and move when medically there is nothing wrong with him, he was...

    Gizmo update

    Following my thread on Saturday re: should he be PTS, Gizmo had his teeth done on Monday which all went fine. The top set of molars werent too bad so it was just the bottom set that they had to be brutal with and they also think he may have a loose molar or tooth infection which we need to keep...

    URGENT advice needed - should he be PTS!!

    Yes the vet did mention a root problem as he could feel the swelling and protuding to his cheeks - to be honest I didnt take it all in to today so my posts are probably not very accurate to what the vet said!! Thanks for all your thoughts, you have confirmed what I knew deep down - he should not...

    URGENT advice needed - should he be PTS!!

    As all of his molars do not grow aligned the vet said he could not remove them because you can not just remove 1 molar you have to remove the adjacent one aswell and bunnies can not live or eat properly without molars and so it causes more problems - he said it would be a strong possibility if...

    Missing fur

    Something similar happened to my bunny but much much worse and I had to share it with you. She had a lump removed and the shaved patch never grew back, we had steroid cream to rub on it, various injections but nothing worked. She then started to lose hair in clumps but not down to the skin and...

    Strange behaviour....what is she doing?! and diet advice

    Hi I noticed last night and again this morning that my bunny Doopy is behaving strangely with straw. She seems to be trying to pick up as much as possible in her mouth which looks hilarious as it is sticking out both sides of her mouth, she does this for about 5 minutes and then just drops it -...

    Urgent Advice on Castration aftercare needed

    The dry mix has been in there all day with him - we have a second bunny in a seperate hutch (they dont get on!) and so what I meant was that when we feed her at 5pm as normal Gizmo might hear the bag rustle and it might interest him. He is now eating some more carrot .....fingers crossed this...

    Urgent Advice on Castration aftercare needed

    He had painkiller injection, but doesnt seem in any discomfort. Vet has given us some prepulsid to give him twice daily alongside the baytril - think the prepulsid is to help stimuilate his stomach? He has finally eaten a little bit of hay and straw - not much but a couple of mouthfuls but...

    Urgent Advice on Castration aftercare needed

    Took Gizmo back to the vets this morning as he didnt eat or drink and no droppings overnight, they advised us to take his collar off as his wound is ok and the stitches are underneath so he cant get to them too easily. They gave him another injection to try and get his bowels moving and we need...
