I’ve been wondering the same about readigrass but couldn’t find anything about it causing gas online, just warnings about the calcium content. Freddie’s gas incidents are getting less frequent and...
I’m currently giving my two buns panacur and had originally only planned to do 9 days as a precaution but was going to finish their syringe, I’m not sure how many doses are in a syringe? I find the...
She will be 7 weeks post spay when they go in in a couple of weeks. When I adopted her I took charge of the bonding myself but when the chasing escalated I would panic and separate them, I think I do...
Hi all,
Does anyone have any tips for how to prepare Freddie and Margot for bonding? They had a successful week together and we were feeling quite cocky about how easily it had all gone and then...
No he didn’t, I didn’t even think to ask. Could you suggest any? I’m guessing things are only going to get worse for him so anything to delay the process would be great.
Interestingly his weight...
Freddie had his X-ray today and it turns out he has mild arthritis on his spine and pelvis and also his teeth may be causing him some discomfort. As he’s only 7 months old they think his arthritis is...
Freddie is doing really well, he’s bouncing around like nothing has happened. He’s been to the vets today and it turns out they didn’t do his X-rays when he went in last time as they wanted the...
Sorry, I’m new to the forum and just realised what you meant by the sticky, I thought it was a typo suggesting I stick it to the Diet forum, I didn’t meant to straddle 2 forums. I’ve found the forum...
Thank you. He’s really bright today. If he does dip then we’ll call the out of hours and take him in today. It’s like he’s 2 different bunnies.

Thank you. I’m going to stop with the Infacol and try just tummy massages. He’ll be going back to the vets on Monday.

He’s been along since 10 weeks, we got him neutered and waited until he was ready to get a lady friend and then we adopted him a girlfriend from a rescue but then she needed to be spayed.
After...
In the evenings he is free roam. He chewed up a carpet before so we don’t want to risk him eating that. He also had been playing in a cardboard box the day before he went into stasis and I haven’t...
Hi all,
Freddie keeps getting gas and after bloods and an x-ray the vet (rabbit savvy) still doesn’t know what’s causing it. So far I have tried:
Science Selective (initially thought this was the...
Thanks for the reply, such a wealth of knowledge!
I’ve put down a runner in his room to encourage him to run about a bit more. He has laminate in his bedroom. He mostly hangs out on the double...
Dinner was simply hay of various forms and some romaine once he had gas to get the Infacol in him. I haven’t mentioned the Infacol yet as I was also worried about what they’d say about its use but...
He’s doing okay today, he managed to get over it about and hour after the third dose of Infacol, usually he only needs one dose. I think I could even feel an air bubble when I was rubbing his tummy,...
I think I spoke too soon. Freddie has gas that won’t seem to shift tonight. He keeps flopping out even though he’s getting fed up with me fussing over him. He’s still eating hay and pooping and last...
Good to know. I have 2 bunnies and one has frequent gas issues so probably won’t be covered if I change but will look into moving the other one as she’s never had any health issues. I might give them...
I’m going to look into the stuff from the hay website, does it come in a large bag? I have no idea what 9kg looks like and as I live in a flat I’m concerned a huge bale will turn up. I’ve read about...
Hi Jo,
You’re definitely right to get insurance. My bunnies are insured with helpucover and they pay up to £2000 on treatment per year. When my last bunny was referred to a specialist with a...
Thank you for the reply, has Toby had xrays and bloods done?
Hay-wise he has had a combination. Previously Oxbow oat hay (Amazon), Alfalfa King timothy hay (P@H), Burgess Excel Feeding Hay...
We must be passing each other on the M3. Freddie is also one of John Chitty’s regulars! We appear to be going through the same thing with our buns. Unfortunately X-rays and bloods didn’t find...
My bunny Freddie is also frequently getting gas and I’ve also been driving back and forth to the specialists. I’ve started treating him with simeticone and belly rubs and he seems to improve on his...
