Smudge has gone :cry: H is absolutely broken. We’re all broken really, but my OH and I at least understand it’s the kindest option despite our heartbreak, but it’s harder for H. The living room is quiet for the first time in 13.5 years :cry: Thank you all for the kind words x

I haven’t posted in this section in such a while. But we have made the difficult decision to say goodbye to Smudge :cry: He is 13 and a half years old and we’ve had him for 13 of those years. I have booked the apt for Wednesday evening next week. He has been weak on one back leg due to...

So just to give a quick update: It cost £60 for the physiotherapy sessions. We’ve only had two, and we aren’t going to need any more. The exercises we were given to do at the first session have really made a difference at the second session only a week later. Smudge was noted as having...

Alas no I’m in the Bath area, but my OH just googled for ‘rabbit physiotherapy’ and he called around a few places within a 20-30 minute drive to find someone who would do it :wave: Interestingly our (rabbit-savvy) vet said the stiffness felt like it was in his hip, but the physiotherapist said...

Oh I would love if Smudge would use his snugglesafe, it would mean we only had to heat that and not so much the whole room. But whenever I put one down, he shuffles off in the opposite direction :lol: it somehow offends him! I’m actually not sure how much the physio costs :oops: our first...

I can’t offer any concrete/‘proven’ advice, nor any broader suggestions as I’m mostly making it up as I go along over here! My Smudge is 13 next week. His eyesight started failing (cataracts) when he was about 11.5 the same age as your bun and I’m sure he has almost no clear vision now, so I...

I don’t think Smudge has noticed yet. I think he will gradually realise over the course of today. So far he is eating okay, I cleaned everything out as soon as Sora left the house so I can see how much he is pooing etc to help keep an eye on him. I also realised he had another birthday and I’m...

Jane I am sending all the vibes I have in the hope that Endeavour will make a speedy recovery and feel better soon x

Thank you everyone. She went this morning, we gave her lots and lots of her favourite vegetables and my husband stayed with her until the end. He said it was very peaceful, for the first time in months she tucked her paws underneath her dewlap and laid down before she drifted away, as if for the...

Thank you all, I have made the appointment for Saturday at 11:30am. My OH is taking her and I am not able to go with her, I don’t want my 3yo to see and we have nobody to look after her while we go to the vets as my only local friend has impetigo and hand foot and mouth right now which are...

Today my OH and I have come to the decision to make an appointment for Sora to be PTS. She is 13(!), she has survived a liver lobe torsion 10 years ago, she has been on a slow decline for the last 2 years or so. Recently she has shown signs that she is ready to go, but her body keeps hanging on...

I am so very sorry, thinking of you x

I’m very sorry x

I have Smudge, an uppy-eared English self who turned 10 last September and Sora, who looks like a Havana (except a lop, so must be a cross) who is estimated to have turned 12 in December. We rescued them both in 2009 and Sora was already fully grown so I believe she is as old as they say...

Thinking of you x

Thanks both for your help, unfortunately the bunnies don't travel well (Sora especially salivates when travelling from the stress) so we've looked around a couple of places with availability within 30 mins drive and have been disappointed with the space available (less than 8ft sq hutches for 2...

Hi all, Does anyone know of a reputable bunny boarding place in the Bristol/Bath/Somerset area who might have space next weekend Fri-Mon? My usual bunny boarding place has just cancelled on me 20 mins ago as the owner has had a nasty accident. It's the height of the summer holidays, and I...

One carrier is fine as long as it's not a really tiny one. We used to use 1 per bunny, but we quickly realised they were better travelling together in the same one :wave:

Hello! Welcome to rabbit ownership :wave: you seem to want to do everything correct and thorough which is a very good thing to see in new owners. I am browsing on a mobile device so this post will be short, however I could not see any hay in your photos and your post (I think) only mentions...

Never say never. We will take a break after these two, but I can't see a future where we never have any more bunnies ever again.
