Sleeping more is definitely perfectly normal in older rabbits. As long as they still enjoy the time they spend moving around and wake up and pay attention at dinner time I don't worry about it at...

Yes we just got two big bottles on a prescription because our vets normally use the generic these days. The generic version works perfectly well but the rabbits don't like it. The ones who have it...
I made it rain.
Everything is my fault around here:~
Outside, always outside. They are so much happier. I feel really guilty when any of ours have to come inside for any reason.
You really need to insulate that hutch. It is only thin cheap wood and not at all warm. Buy some of the foil bubblewrap and staple it all over the outside, a couple of layers preferably and then put...
We have lots of blind rabbits because we have lots of old rabbits. It is very common and doesn't pose much of a problem for them. We have one old fellow who has been here for eleven years and can't...
Not at all. We had a lot of unvaccinated rabbits here in 2010 when we lost 5 rabbits to vhd. We immediately vaccinated all of them and no more got it, although five did succumb to the effects of...
The figure of 80% came from a very limited number (twelve I think) of related laboratory rabbits and it is very dubious whether it could be duplicated in rabbits living a good life. Given the impact...
Guinea pug?? You must be tired. Not surprising after that mammoth effort! You are such a star:)
Well the rabbits have their runs back thanks to Caroline and her chain saw. The posts are fine. And the wire has gone back up. It was rather crumpled and the staples had popped out but fixing it is...
The other two trustees, Jennifer and Caroline, are brilliant handy women and have dealt with several of these leylandii when they have fallen before so I am sure they can deal with the top bit, and...
We are in Redditch, the other side of the county from Worcester.
I am hoping we can get the top of the tree dealt with ourselves so the runs can be repaired but the trunk is too heavy and would be...

Nobun was hurt but three pairs have had their runs wrecked and have had to move. Hopefully we can get them sorted quickly.
The feed shed roof is shredded too.
Our older rabbits love it outside. It would be completely unfair to move them inside. I even feel guilty if I have to keep any of them in a stable temporarily. I am sure the natural environment...
I hate to spoil your thought but fenugreek crunchies are bad for rabbits as they are mostly corn. I bin them along with most treats we are given. Believe me money or a grocery voucher is best and...
We have used sheets of foil to hang down the front of the hutches under the covers at night instead of bubblewrap this year as good quality bubblewrap in affordable rolls of the right width was very...
It comes as capsules that you can easily open and mix with water. It tastes horrible though. Don't expect them to take it willingly. If they are having metacam too give the tramadol first so the...
we have about 30 rabbits over 8 living outside. their hutches are well insulated and they have plenty of hay but no heating. they do really well, even when there is ice on the water bowls. rabbit...
It was really cold cleaning them out today, lots of bowls had ice in them, but it was not as bad as a few years ago. Chipping frozen rabbit wee out of a hutch is not fun!! I really hope it doesn't...
they are wearing fur coats you know, don't worry about indoor rabbits getting cold
surprisingly slabs are warmer than a shed floor as the ground doesn't freeze but the air under a shed can be below freezing. which is why the water in the sheds and hutches with wooden floors was...
just wait, I had one who started off by doing sweet things like that, but he ended up weeing on the bed to mark it as his. not pleasant. he cured me of house rabbits. he was much happier outside...
rabbits don't often get ringworm, unlike guinea pigs. we have a real problem with it in our barn, it keeps flaring up in the piggies, so much so that we are not taking any more in until we know we...
Ok I emailed them.
Is she inside or outside now? I have a snuffly buck who will soon need a new friend. He has an isolated hutch and huge run outside. He actually looks just like her. If she has a winter coat I can...
