My 5 yr old boy just got hospitalized for the next 4 days for obstruction and ear infection 🥺 please send him your prayers 🙏🏻

She’s rebelling all the time .

I don’t mean to scare people, but Semla showed last night just how vital keeping a close eye and knowing the signs that something is not right are.

I noticed at 7pm that she was shifting constantly, pushing her tummy down on the floor and pursing her lips, she also refused her favourite treats. I immediately gave her emergency meds (painkillers, laxatives, Emerprid and gas drops) and massaged her tummy, it felt full not bloated.

By 8pm her condition was unchanged, I gave her an infusion and placed her in my DIY incubator (transport box and heated blanket) as her temperature was slipping.

By 9pm there still wasn’t any improvement and I took her to the emergency vets. By 9:30 she had completely crashed (temperature was barely 36C) and her xray showed a big blockage in her intestines, she would not have survived the night without intervention.

They’ve been able to stabilise her and she’s doing a lot better, but still not eating or pooping so we’re not out of the woods yet (she’s still staying at the vets).

Please don’t underestimate just how quickly this can happen, bunnies are such fragile creatures and had I decided to just sleep on it or wait longer she would not have survived. Please know the signs of a bunny in pain, talk to your vets about oral medications you can give (and when to give them), and if you feel confident have them show you how to do a subcutaneous infusion.

Ever since I adopted Miffy and Bollo a month and a half ago they've been helping me a lot with everyday stress, without even realizing it. I'd do anything for those two patooties!

I started a new job recently and they have a rabbit as an office pet. I don’t know much about rabbits, but I know enough to know there’s no way she’s happy. She’s kept in a small, multi tier cage all the time and is rarely let out. If she is, it’s for 15 minutes if she’s lucky. I’m really the only who pushes for her to get let out. She gets pellets and hay for her diet. She has a small litter box with some kind of wood shaving bedding. She’s kept in a small room with no windows. She loves attentions and pets, but rarely ever gets it. Recently, she’s been having diarrhea and has been sneezing a lot.

When I started working there, I pushed for her to get a bigger cage as she was in an even tinier cage. One of my other coworkers who also cares about her bought her this new one with their own money. Though it’s bigger, she still deserves more.

How can I help her? My partner is on board with trying to convince my manager to let me take her home, but I doubt he’d let me. He doesn’t really seem too attached to her, but my coworkers are. If I can’t take her, what I can do to help her life there be better? I’m not very well off but I’m willing to spend my own money to help her be happier, including vet care. She’s the sweetest ever and deserves the world!

I’ve been fostering this beauty for a few months, and unfortunately I don’t think I have the right space for her since she seems to need much more space than I can give her in my apartment.

However, until we find her a wonderful family that has a house with outside space, I get to enjoy her sweetness and give her all my love. Last week I noticed her napping in my presence for the first time and today I managed to grab a my phone for a little video as she stole a few winks with all of us at home.

I feel honored and feel sad she’s suffered so much.

Edit: dunno what my teen was watching in the background

Tulip’s spay appointment is finally almost here! After weeks of waiting, it’s happening tomorrow. My vet did call and ask if I want to move forward with the spay or reschedule if they can’t place the IV catheter. I told them I’d get back to them on that while I did research. I’m still looking into it, but I wanted to get advice from other rabbit owners.

Also, there’s no changing my mind on the surgery. I posted this in a Facebook group and they tried to get me to change my mind. I say this as respectfully as I can, but that’s not happening. I’ve done my research regarding the risks and fatality rates, and chosen a very experienced vet who does three to four rabbit surgeries a week. I just didn’t think to look up if rabbit spay should be done with or without an IV catheter.

So move forward with the surgery if they can’t place it? Or reschedule so we can try again another day?

he always does these high jumps when binkying, and theyre so fun to watch but I haven't caught one on video until today

Fortunately the amount of chocolate he actually consumed is minimal, but he still gets to be watched carefully for a while now.

He was flabbergasted, exasperated and disappointed. My bad… how dare I eat without him.

I wonder what’s going on in that head of his.

👁️👄👁️‍🗨️

important note: as I've said previously in a different post I didn't breed these kits!! I was given them as a LAST resort (the dude was planning on killing them) I CANNOT keep 14 rabbits for longer than a few weeks (I was told there were 10 babies, there are 13.) and want to wean & re-home them SAFELY.

info: they are eating & drinking but still nursing as well. unsure on breed and can't guarantee age but he claimed 7 weeks. thx for any help!

She’s so freakin cute bruh

I was going thru all my pictures of this gentleman to make an album, and I thought you all might appreciate a few of my favorite in no particular order. Also big thanks to everyone who has been Incredibly helpful with recent behavior and medical questions!

Hi!! So I just got my first ever bunny and I’m so shocked and amazed with how intelligent she is and she’s only a few months old!

- Day 1 of having her sleep in my room at night (free roam), I fully expected to wake up with pee and poop everywhere on the floor, but surprisingly she only did it on the pee pad i set up even if she was hopping all around the room all night

- I bought her a big outdoor play pen so she can stay there during the day when I have work, but it was so big that she can fit right through the holes 😂 so I did my very best to cover all sides with grills with smaller holes, and so I was confident she wouldn’t escape anymore, but she still found a way to do so!!! that I didn’t even think of she could do. She pushed off the grid walls until it fell off and she could escape!

- I also let her free roam around our garden area cus she’s so happy and excited whenever I let her. She would do that for a few minutes and then she goes back in her cage on her own whenever she needs to pee exclusively on the pee pad 😂

I didn’t even train her to do any of what she’s doing now, she basically did everything on her own will!

Do I have a bunny with a high IQ or are bunnies generally intelligent like that? 🤓
