Hi I rehomed my 8month old nethie Gimli three months ago. When he was neutered I got the vets to check his teeth and they found his incisors were misaligned. Since then they were trimmed and burred at an increasingly short rate. His last visit was about three wks ago and they need doing again...

Hi To start from the beginning, Wednesday evening OScar wasn't interested in his pellets (very unlike him) so brought him in and tried to tempt him with his favs like apple and dandelion he wouldn't take any. I was all set to take him to the emergancy vet when he pooped and started to eat...

Does anyone know of a farm near Reading that sells hay, I can't find anywhere and pet shop stuff is expensive and not very nice smelling? Help anyone?

I went into a pet shop today near Reading (***************) I was shocked to find there was no hay in for any of the rabbits, so I went and said to the woman that there was no hay. Well the answer I got was "Of course not they only get a handfull a day!" she was so rude!! I then said but a...

Hi Just a quick question do any of you up the amount of pellets for your bunnies in winter. Mine get SS and handful in evenings I was wondering if this was too little. They obviously have loads of hay! And most days get some form of fresh stuff. Thanks

Hi I'veneverhad a rabbit with earmites before so i'm ntsure if Oscar has them I have him booked in to see the vet later in the week. He started over the weekend shaking his ears I thought he'd got a bit of hay down it but when I looked his ears are totally clear of anything dodgy. So could this...
