Skizzles posted:vet This all sounds very promising! Sounds like you are getting good info but I would agree with alucinor on asking follow-up questions on Monday. You are doing great! dopaMEAN posted:What do you guys do when you leave town? I'm going to be gone for a week around Christmas, and my friend did offer to watch my cats, but I'm not sure if she could do the bunny too. I'm worried she won't get any out-of-cage time. That's why I'm kind of stressed about finding her a bigger cage right now. I usually ask whoever is taking care of him to come over and watch TV or something at my place for an hour and let him run around, giving him greens before they leave to make it easier to coax him back into his condo. One time the petsitter did their laundry at my place, which let him have a few hours of running time.

Skizzles posted:Just wanted to give an update on Cinnabun, complete with pics and video! This is one very happy bunny! Cinnabun obviously likes you from the way she grooms you and allows you the "honor" of petting her (in bunny hierarchy terms anyway). I saw what on carpet would have been a binky and the Bunny 500. What a sweet and outgoing girl. It can take weeks, months or even years for a bunny to become comfortable enough around their people to allow that kind of contact seen in the video. (I also enjoyed seeing the "baseball cap ears" curious body language and poking around at the vent and behind the sink.) You are doing a really great job at providing this bun the environment she needs to heal and be happy! Don't forget to update us about her followup appointment on Monday, I'm sure we'll all be looking forward to hearing how it goes

blinkeve1826 posted:Yup, you nailed it--I was using Kaytee and recently switched to Oxbow. Haven't seen Kleen Mama around here, but if all the dust and crap is gone from there it's definitely worth looking into. I'll have a look online, thank you for the recommendation. I'd like to remember what it feels like to breathe again! You won't see it in stores, you have to order it from their site: http://www.kmshayloft.com

Skizzles posted:I may or may not have bought a pen for Cinnabun. Looks good! I would suggest putting down a scrap of carpet or something on the ramp/cage door to make sure her little toes don't get caught coming in and out of there

Hungry Joes Smile posted:edit: omigod Christmas Trees; how do you guys deal!? Well obviously they are delicious. Also there are willow ornaments. But seriously, I just buy untreated Christmas trees and don't hang anything down low that I don't want nibbled.

dopaMEAN posted:Lola and the raisins May I humbly suggest http://store.busybunny.com/Product302? You can control the number of raisins she gets and my bun just loves this thing. It takes a while for the raisins to come out and he seems to love the noise it makes when he drops it.

Glasgow posted:But his behavior is actually getting worse now; he's marking his territory, being aggressive to her and even becoming aggressive toward me. Obvious question: is he neutered? Also where/how are you bringing them together? You mentioned previously that he is cage aggressive.

Foaming Chicken posted:Is it normal for rabbits to lay completely on their sides? Including having one side of their face to the ground? It reminds me of how my dog would lay when he was relaxed. He looks like an old teddy bear that just fell over (but legs limp) Yes, this is a super happy and relaxed pose. Whatever you're doing, good job!

luscious posted:I was going to buy diapers to put down so if they peed they wouldn't be sitting in it for hours. I totally dropped the ball on that one so I'll just put down a towel or something. The last time I moved my bun by car, I put puppy pee pads in the bottom of the carrier and that worked out pretty well.

Foaming Chicken posted:Is there any hope of my rabbit mellowing out as he gets to know and trust me? I remember Lewis putting up a fight in the beginning but new bun is just so much more energetic/curious/spry. And angry about it. It can happen, just be patient. Foaming Chicken posted:Edit: I have stopped screaming CACAW as I reach in to snatch him You should stop wearing the owl mask too.

sliderule posted:I hate spaying and neutering bunnies. It has broken my last two. They were active before, and turned into grumpy do-nothings. I just don't want to break another good-natured bunny. sliderule posted:The two are not pairing well. They try to fight every time they get close. sliderule posted:I don't know what to do now You're being ridiculous. Intact females have up to an 80% chance of developing a reproductive cancer and are nearly impossible to bond. Having them spayed will be better for their health and give them a shot at bonding.

Levitate posted:Do people have recommendations for something to put on the bottom of a rabbits pen area to keep urine and other stuff from getting onto the floor/carpet? I buy these rugs from Walmart : http://www.walmart.com/ip/Mainstays-Titan-Area-Rug-Blue/17324470 The ones that measure 30x46 fit almost perfectly in a 2 grid x 3 grid cube cage and cost $11. They sell a variety of colors as well.
