@MightyMax I just had a discussion with my sister who also helps care for George. Apparently, he's done this a few times over the past day or two. She says he's been off-balance, shaking his head, etc. so I'm thinking it's an ear infection. However, I am certainly no vet and it's still unusual...

Does anyone have an idea of what's wrong? Anything I can do in the meantime? Edit: I went down to see him again and he seems better. He's eaten almost all his food and was munching away at his hay when I went down. He gave me his usual grumpy sniff and carried on with his eating. We're still...

George is really not right. Usually when we feed him, he's ravenous - he'll jump into his hutch right away and start clawing at the food bowl to get every last scrap. But tonight, he completely ignored his food. He was lying on the ground outside the hutch when I went down, something he rarely...

Guys, don't worry - panic over. I'm still crying, but smiling as I do it because George is eating again! My mum went out to hang up the wet washing and she called to me through my window, saying George was eating the grass. And he was - happily munching away on all the treats we'd given him to...

My mum hadn't even considered taking him to the vet, which offends and worries me. He is getting better, more awake and chewed a little on the pellets I gave him. Is this a good sign? Considered eating a dried out sweetcorn, but hasn't actually eaten anything yet. Ate his pellets last night.

Hi everyone, in a bit of a panic today. George has stopped eating. He didn't eat any fresh hay that I put out for him this morning, he didn't come for his greens and when I tried to get him to eat them, he jumped back into his hutch. He refused to eat a slice of apple, too - apple is his...

Today I tried something different - mixing several goodies together and giving it to George as a kind of salad. Guess what? He loved it! So, I decided to share some recipes I made with you. Be sure to edit the amounts of ingredients to your bun's taste and special diet, and increase the general...

Thank you! If the pleading-my-mother part and the first-meeting part is successful, I'll be posting a bonding diary soon.

Okay, so I'm planning on getting my bun George a lovely girl to keep him company, but I have some questions.. I'm scared that she'll crush him? The bun I have an eye on is a standard rex, and he's a mini lop, so... I'm also worried that if they seem to be bonded and I leave them overnight...

Yes, she's been spayed.

Yea, they're going to meet first and we'll take it from there. There isn't much about her on the page but I'm getting in contact with the owner ASAP.

So I've seen a bunny that I have my heart set on if George tolerates her. She's a 4 year old mini lop, perfect match, and I'm going to pay for her myself if my parents refuse to. The only problem is she's in Northamptonshire. The journey would take about 2 hours, and I'm worried its too long?

Thank you luna, I've seen a few possible matches but it's hard to close the age gap, and I would prefer a girl who's a similar age to George.

Give her some time to fully grieve and recover, and support her with treats, extra cuddles and toys to keep her amused while she's alone. George is in the same position, but strangely he seems fine too, like Ava. Perhaps they both knew their friend was leaving... :cry: After about 1 week to a...

Good luck Queenie! She's so purdy

Thanks VB, helpful as always. I'll probably wait about a day for the bunny to adjust, but not too much like you said. George'll love his new wifey :lol: just hope they'll get along.

George does that. If only we had a bunny mindreader device xD I'd love to know what George is thinking sometimes.

She's beautiful! Lovely colour on her. I have a few questions. Is she okay with excitable young dogs? How big is she, in terms of breed size? Would she be able to be an outdoor rabbit?

If I get a new bunny to keep George company... How long would it take for me to wean it onto grass, if it hadn't eaten grass before? How long would it usually take for a rabbit to settle in its new environment? I don't want to start bonding too early.

Yup, he doesn't seem to be grieving, but he's not depressed either. Maybe he's mourning in his own little silent way. I'm finding him a wifey ASAP, so he isn't alone for too long. This will just be a temporary replacement if the finding-of-the-bunnygirl takes a while.
