    Please Help me Protect my New Rabbits

    Thanks so much for replying, everybody. Some stuff was stuff I'd been doing already, and some was new. Both were really useful though as it's good to know what I am doing well as well as extra things I can do to improve. :)

    Good point. I've always done this, but I will be more strict with my family doing so too.

    Thanks. :) I did used to do all that (partially by coincidence, I'll admit!), but it's good to know that I need to keep on. :)

    Please Help me Protect my New Rabbits

    Don't worry, I read all about the problems with shavings. It's if the shavings are too fine and if they have any sort of smell agent added to them. I was sure to make them big enough not to be inhaled and I got ones that were just in their natural state w/o any perfume. I also made sure they...

    Omi, thanks so much for replying. Okay, I think I'll go for a bowl then. I always used to worry myself that they weren't drinking nearly enough! Moth & Ziggy were Nethies, so I kept them in really big enclosures. I filled the base of them with soft wood shavings - that's what I mean by changing...

    Please Help me Protect my New Rabbits

    Hello everyone, I've been posting a lot on this forum recently and everybody's been so kind and helpful so I thought it wouldn't be too bad to ask some more questions. I've recently lost two beautiful bunnies (but I'm not going to go into that again :cry: ) to VHD2/RHD2. I learnt only...

    Moth and Ziggy aren't here anymore.

    I just want to thank everyone for their kind words. Although they don't magic my babies back, they make it a little easier. You've all said things that I hadn't thought of and make it a bit more bearable. Especially the fact that if I hadn't adopted them, they may not have known what it was like...

    Moth and Ziggy aren't here anymore.

    Both of my rabbits were taken from me on Tuesday. I woke up proud owner of two beautiful bunnies planning our first Christmas together and at night I didn't have either of them. I've not been very well at all this year and so for my birthday, my parents said I could get my rabbits. They've...

    Che Passed Away

    I'm so sorry you lost him. :( Don't blame yourself - I know you gave him the best life he could have had. And that wouldn't (probably) have been the case if someone else adopted him. I've just lost my two beautiful bunnies too so I know how you feel and wish you all the luck in the world. Stay...

    tonibun, they really do. I'm glad I wouldn't need to wait very long, but I will be absolutely certain I'm choosing absolutely the right pair before I adopt. Thanks so much.

    Horace the Bold, Oh, it's good that you can order it in. I'm glad you think my idea of adopting a pair from a rescue is a good idea. I've loved having two bunnies. I couldn't have imagined how different their personalities would be!

    Omi, it really is. The only merciful thing is that it's short-lived. :(

    MightyMax, thank you so much for all your kind thoughts. It feels good to know there are people out there who understand and I'm so grateful that this forum is so kind and helpful. My rabbits were quite young, which makes it worse, but I really did give them everything I could.

    Shimmer, Thank you so much for all that. I think I am way too scared to reuse bottles, and I hear anything wooden is hard to get scent and infection out of. But I will definitely wash all my clothes with it and I think I might reuse the bowls in the way you suggested. Of course I will vaccinate...

    Hele, Thank you so much for replying. I agree about the hutches: you can't be too over-cautious. We've disposed of them. Thank you for all the information. I didn't know that VHD2 existed unfortunately, although I really was thorough in my research. Luckily, the vet I see is very kind and has...

    Hi, I'm really sad to say that I've lost my two best friends within 24 hours. They were my only friends and they've helped me through so much and I just couldn't help them in the end. They were fine one minute and then they were fitting and were gone. When the second one started acting like the...
