Hello, Having a problem with 2 female spayed (4 weeks ago) rabbits. Both are sisters and are almost 1 year old. Came from a neglect type situation. Both...
Hi Julie, Sometimes for unknown reasons they will 'fall out of bond' with each other. Where they were bonded originally, I would think that they should be...
I have a question as neither of the bunnies I have owned have had this. This evening I was watching TV with my Netherland dwarf, Harriet, and I noticed her...
Hi Jennii, and Harriet, There can be many causes for watery eyes, but the vet will probably be needed to help you sort out what it is that is causing it with...
Hi, When my bun had runny eyes, she had a respiratory infection. If the runniness does not return to normal, or if you also notice sneezing or coughing (these...

Could be a dental issue. Usually with runny eyes, that means my bun has a molar spur. That's my first indication he needs to get a dental check. Could be a URI...
If she were my bunny, I would have her looked at by a rabbit savvy veterinarian. It could be any of a number of things, and the veterinarian needs to exam her...
Hi, I have a fluffy little jersey wooley. Her excrement gets stuck on the fuzz around her butt. She hates me if I clean it. If I don't clean it, the vet has...

... on the ... Hello, I have a similar problem from time to time with a lop. Our vet tells us a little bit of baby shampoo is ok to use and it helps. Sylvie...
Really? I have seen websites and was told by my vet to not even use baby shampoo. Even though it is gentle to us, bunny skin is so sensitive it still...
Well, actually, it's a myth that baby shampoo helps bunnies...At least from what I understand...You might just try and test a small part of your bauunies skin...
I have read that bunnies are often used in animal testing, as far as soaps, shampoos, dyes, and that sort of thing goes, just because the skin IS so delicate....
Yes, even baby shampoo can be harsh. A bun's skin is SOOOOO delicate. Usually I only soak my partially disabled bun's butt and back legs in warm water in a ...
The one time Daisy the Lop had a messy bottom, I tried a pet store shampoo made for rabbits. It didn't work too well, but they do exist. Fortunately, she took...
How do you tell if a rabbit is wild? This morning around 7 AM, I was watching the squirrels on the back lawn, when I realized that one of the them was actually...
We have an older bunny who experiences a messy butt and what works well for us is wrapping him up in a bunny burrito with a towel and spraying his butt with...

I'd say he's wild. I'm not sure what the wild ones in CA look like, but here in MA, they have that squirrely coloring and they're kind of lanky and very fast....
... I have been working as a wildlife rescuer and rehabilitator since '97, and I work solely with wild rabbits. First, how big is this rabbit? For instance,...
Two Questions: 1) Our bunny's litter box is in the corner right next to the incoming door to her room (the door makes up one wall of the corner). Every time...
... He looks to be about half as big as my mini-rex who's just under 5 lbs. "Hazel" may be a bit closer to 3 lbs, or may be even a bit smaller, that's just an...
Some of you may remember that after we lost our Jessica in January, we adopted a new friend for our male bunny, Flint. We named her Ginger, and once they were...

Regarding your first question... One thought is that you can put a small hole in the middle of the corner of the litterbox, specifically the corner that goes...
I keep my rabbit down in the basement during the summer where it's cooler, and I've constructed this playarea for him, and blocked off all the wires. The...
My friend asked me to post for her: I have a 3 year old dwarf netherland rabbit that I am looking to get spayed because of her agressive behavior and I want to...
I'm so sorry about Ginger, Peggy. I know how hard it is to lose a bun, as most of us on this site do. I wanted to comment on the pineapple juice. It needs...
As long as she's in good health (I'd suggest blood work before hand), she should be fine. Shannon ... From: welonheadmoo@... To: HouseBun@yahoogroups.com...

We've kept bunnies in our basement for years. What we did to make it lighter was to get grow lights, like what you use for plants. It seems to work well. ...
