Hi all So you'll know from my other thread "Rupert's eye" that my bun Rupert had his eye taken out 3ish weeks ago (and is blind in his other eye). During recovery he was in a pen, with a litter tray in it. He had a couple of accidents but did use the litter tray. Now that he's out of the pen...

Rupert is completely blind due to cataracts and has recently got an ulcer in his eye. Not sure how it happened, but he was improving initially with antibiotics and corneal repair gel, but has now got worse. He had a recheck at the vet today and now has stronger antibiotics but they talked about...

I'm sure I've asked this here ages ago but can't find the thread now. Oxbow joint support seems to be out of stock everywhere, can anyone recommend any suitable alternatives?

I just got Lilac's insurance renewal through, it's gone up from £33 to £38 a month. She is nearly 9 so I can't shop around (already tried a couple of years ago and no one would even give me a quote). Rupert's insurance is £30 a month as well so I'm looking at almost £70 a month in insurance...

Noticed something off with the way Rupert was walking and we've been able to narrow it down to a limp on his front right leg. Picked him up and tried to have a good feel, can't feel anything obvious, no swelling, lumps or bumps, and his claws are all in tact. Going to try and get him in at the...

Just noticed Rupert has diarrhoea, luckily I've been able to get him in at the vets but not until this evening. Not sure what's caused it as he hasn't had anything new or different to eat (to my knowledge). He ate fine this morning and also took some dandelion root an hour or so ago before I...

Rupert was just minding his business sitting in the living room while we watch TV when a wasp has stung him on the face near his nose! First we knew was when he started running wildly around the room. OH removed the wasp, Rupert is cleaning his face a lot as must be very sore. Have done a video...

I recently bought a new bag of Excel nuggets and Lilac just is not interested in them at all. Ate the last bag no issues, but as soon as I opened the new bag she turned her nose up. She will eat absolutely everything else - hay, veg, treats - no questions asked so I don't think there's anything...

Despite getting a clean bill of health a few weeks ago Lilac has since developed snuffles. She sounds like a pig snorting when she's eating. First noticed it on Monday, I was meant to be working at the Old Bailey today but luckily it was cancelled and I've been able to get her booked in at the...

Over the weekend Lilac seemed a tiny bit snuffly at times. She had pasteurella about 18 months ago so I didn't want to take any chances and booked her in today. I'm also away for a few days soon and my rabbits have a tendency to get ill when I'm about to go away! Anyway, she's absolutely fine...

Following on from the thread with the George stuff I found this recently https://www.hammade.com/ Am deffo going to be buying a mug as my favourite coffee mug has a massive split down the side. Just have to make sure I don't buy much more!

Lilac is around 8 and Rupert is 6 (roughly, both were rescues so not completely sure). They both seem to be in good health, no issues with cleaning themselves and no signs of arthritis that I can see. Rupert is blind but manages better than I ever thought he would have done, he very rarely bumps...

Rupert is usually a big one for spring fever, he runs around honking and gets obsessed with digging certain things (last year it was a pillow). Yesterday he started digging at a spare duvet and he's starting to circle Lilac a little bit too. He's also become quite possessive over an old...

I took Lilac to the vet today as she has conjunctivitis. Decided to ask about her hocks as she's always had little red marks but I noticed recently she was bothered by one. The vet said they look okay and definitely not infected (and I've also seen images of sore hock progression so I'm not too...

A new box of Timothy hay arrived today, I thought I'd let them try some. Safe to say I haven't seen Rupert's face since [emoji1787] Sent from my SM-F711B using Tapatalk

I have two buns, Lilac and Rupert. I always used to give them boredom breakers with their food in when I was out all day. Rupert has gone pretty much completely blind, he has cataracts in both eyes now, but has adjusted well and the vet is happy with him generally. I was wondering whether people...

Rupert has developed a cataract in one eye over recent months and now his other eye is starting to look cloudy. He's been seen by the vet who doesn't think he's in any pain, and he's a happy little sausage overall. But I worry about him as he's starting to bump into things e.g. furniture and...

Hi all I haven't posted for a while here so apologies for coming here begging for healing vibes. I was cleaning my rabbits' litter tray this morning sitting on the floor, I had to lean forward briefly and when I sat back down I've accidentally sat down on Rupert's head. He didn't squeal or make...

She went into stasis in the evening, she refused her nuggets at 8pm. I persuaded her to eat one fenugreek crunchie and a tiny amount of dry porridge oats but then she started to turn her nose up. She's had some emeprid and metacam. Just got up (2am) to check on her, she refused all food so fed...

As the title suggests, one of my rabbits has ingested some plastic overnight. I use a pipette to feed my fish and must've dropped it on the floor last night without realising. I remember hearing some nibbling when I was in bed but I didn't think anything of it tbh. Anyway, I found the pipette on...
