This walking nightmare is Quinn, my 2 year old (nearly 3) male bun. To date, aside from incidental issues, he has been diagnosed with: - An initial lung infection that caused permanent lung damage - Liver insufficiency (currently coming back normal) - A malfunctioning adrenal gland (hormone...

I have a feeling this is going to be the oddest thing I've ever taken a rabbit to the vets for. Quinn, over the last week, now has noticeable drooping in both ears. I've googled this and only got responses that rabbits that are hot can do this. I've never seen it happen before and I've been...

Yesterday evening I took Quinn out of his house to bring him in for nebulising and off-handedly checked his bottom. Nice and clean, but I got an unexpected shock- swollen genitals. Alarm bells for a lot of you, I'm sure. I took him to the vets first thing this morning and after a thorough...

My boy Quinn has not been well lately. I say that, but he's been eating like a horse, pooping wonderfully and if he hears a fenugreek crunchie packet he's halfway up the door. That's why it took me so long to realise his respiratory rate was far too high. After checking on him a few times and...

This is going to be a long and heavy ramble, you've been warned. I'm having an anxiety attack even typing it. I suppose I'll start by giving a bit of a trigger warning for mental health problems and negative emotions. Also apologies to the Admods if this isn't something they are happy with. I...

Adelaide and Quinn have been bonded for something like a month and a half, two months now? There was a bit of fur pulling here and there and he's hormonal enough that he's been spraying but they have been inseparable. Just last week she went to the vets for her vaccine and him for a microchip...

http://forums.rabbitrehome.org.uk/showthread.php?477818-Going-to-lose-my-bunny-soon Pandora has gone to be with Mattie. I'm utterly devastated but there was nothing more I could do for her. :cry: 3 Sept 2010 ~ 1 Dec 2019

Poor Pandora has had it rough... She's had EC related kidney insufficiency for some years, as well as a constant nasal infection (which turned out to be klebsiella pneumoniae). She lost her partner last year and started acting crazy towards her bonds/later (now ex-) husbun Bailey, attacking with...

It is one of the great trials of being an animal parent that nobody else will find poop as fascinating as you. For reference, I have two rabbits- Pandora, an eight year old female with relatively normal gut health, and Bailey, a seven year old male with Megacolon Syndrome. Both rabbits are the...

This is more of a rant than anything because I'm sad and anxious and getting stressed out. Pandora is elderly and her jaw muscles are not as strong as they once were, so her teeth are a bit misaligned now. She had a dental last week and took a while to recover from it, with abdominal pain and...

Hi all Bunny number 6 has come home today and I wanted to pick your brains for ideas. I've got myself into a bit of a naming tradition with my rabbits. My first rabbit, Bandit, was a pedigree born from a pair (+1) rejected from the breeder and sold to my school farm. I have no idea what their...

I wasn't sure which section to post this in so I just placed it here. Has anyone got any kind of surveillance for their rabbits? My aviary is down the end of the garden so if I want to check on the bun I have to go out whatever the weather, down the garden, get into the aviary (which my mum has...

After the death of my little boy in August I now have an elderly widow. Pandora turned 8 at the beginning of September and while she maintains her mobility, she does have worsening kidney insufficiency and a chronic nasal issue that keeps requiring medication. A couple of weeks ago she had a...

Some of you might have seen my post in Housing about my anxiety making new accommodation for my rabbits. I went ahead with it and posted photos. My dear little boy Mattie got to spend all of two days in it- I began to get suspicious that something was wrong when after a period of looking a bit...

I want to have a long ramble because I've been giving myself periodic anxiety over this. I also don't really have friends and I think those who do talk to me glaze over a bit when I start talking about it. My current accommodation (two occupants) is this: 1 x 6ft x 4ft double decker shed...

Hi Pandora is having some issues at the moment and may be having a serious problem with her kidneys. In order to test this, and to lessen the strain on them, the vets have advised a low calcium diet for the next week before we test her blood again. I've been researching low calcium options for...

Just before New Years one of the rabbits at the Rescue suffered sudden liver failure. Amazingly he survived and is now on several meds a day. We found out recently, when asking if he could be let out to graze, that our vet considered it too much of a risk to his liver to be allowed fresh grass...

No doubt there will be a few people on here who will know me and realise who I'm talking about but... Doe is 10 years old and widowed. Her previous partner was her soulmate- they would yin-yang for excessively long periods of time just snogging. She is not aggressive by nature. Buck is...

I am looking into Pet Insurance for at least one of my rabbits. I’ve never insured any of my pets before so I was wondering if anyone can make any recommendations. The rabbit concerned is a year old, already neutered, micro-chipped and in good health. He will be bonded with another rabbit (are...

My beautiful little bunny boy was sent to the Bridge half an hour ago. There was nothing more I could do for him :cry:
