How about?

Has she had xrays to rule out a piece of willow twig where it shouldn't be?

The willow in itself shouldn't be an issue. I presume it's not treated with anything (doesn't need to be). I've never...

Getting her vaccinated sooner would probably be a good idea. Vaccines take a couple of weeks to become fully effective anyway, so she would be better protected if she's done now - assuming she's not...

Just seen the pics - you have a summerhouse / conservatory rather than a traditional greenhouse. You will still get temperature fluctuations. Rabbits are OK in the cold if they have adequate shelter,...

Fipronil and imidacloprid are the two alternatives for regular (non-vet prescribed) spot-on flea treatment. Different brands could use either - so it's always worth checking before you buy. Even the...

VetUK also does spot-on cat treatments and house sprays. I would initially treat the cat with a monthly spot-on treatment on the back of its neck, and regularly vacuum. Also get a nit comb (standard...

A lot of rabbits don't like to be handled, but it does make a huge difference if you are able to pick them up. They may not 'like' it, but they do get used to it, which makes it so much easier on you...

One of my dogs used to get harvest mites on his underneath (where the fur is thinnest) when the grass is long (ie around now). They are too tiny to see but cause a lot of irritation. Easily fixed...

Furry family is the best!

I'm surprised my dogs haven't keeled over just from going out in the garden. The smell of marijuana can be really strong at times. Not worked out where it's coming from, though, except for passing...

I would just check anything he picks up. Round here, they use old split tennis balls to hide poison (eg slug pellets or rat poison, posssibly in meat), which inevitably is aimed at the dogs, so we...

That's a nice piece of 'proper' furniture (ie not flat pack). Chests of drawers were really popular when I was clearing out a couple of houses - then I looked at prices at Ikea and realised why.

Milk thistle plants are OK to feed to rabbits, so I assume the seeds will be, as long as they are not coated. You could always try to grow the plants and feed the whole plant.

I would definitely look for a rabbit savvy vet. There's something not right if he's not eating properly, and that will lead to other issues fairly quickly. Is he losing weight? Weighing him weekly is...

Is there any way you can leave them separated by a secure mesh divider when you can't supervise them? They will be able to snuggle next to each other but not fight. It might make life a bit easier...

Hi & welcome.

Is it just on one eye? Or both sides?
Is it wet, or crusty?
Have you tried gently combing out the fur under her eye? It will help to remove any mats or crusty bits.

What...

There are an awful lot of lop eared rabbits around. I don't think new owners appreciate the dental issues that are more likely with genetic skull modifications in rabbits, and the effect it has on...

I think it describes my youngest dog perfectly. Maybe he is a rabbit in disguise.

A teddy from a charity shop should be fine, as long as it is all intact he doesn't chew it.

You may be able to get some hemp-based litter locally (may be sold as horse bedding in a big bale), or any of the recycled paper (unscented) ones. Or just sheets of newspaper under a layer of hay.

It all sounds to be going well. I would leave them together all the time now. Just keep an extra eye on them for a couple of days.

There used to be a regular supply of astrex bunnies in a local garden centre. I've not seen any since they stopped selling pets there.

As above - I've never had any problems with Panacur, even used long term for a particularly stubborn case of EC. EC can cause a lot of long-term damage if not properly managed and treated.
I would...

A lot of the local agricultural shows round here classes for pets, including rabbits. Bear in mind that they will be in an almost bare metal cage of about 2' x 1' all day (before the show opens to...

I use warm / hot water with a squirt of washing up liquid and a squirt of bleach in for cleaning most hard surfaces, floors, hutches, etc. Sweep / wipe off any significant dirty bits first. Let it...
