My sweet lazy boy

Hi. I was at the vet today with my bunny Bon Jovi. He has chronic teeth issues because his front teeth are misaligned. Last week they were loose, today the vet said they look fine. She said his roots on the front teeth look fine as well and she would hold off with getting them pulled for now. But on his back teeth there are already signs of a start of an abscess. She said to call in 2 days if he is drooling but that the root didnt reach the bone quite yet. Does anyone have experience with this, how do they heal and does it come back?

My vet said they wont operate unless abscess starts forming, because there is a possibility it wont start.

Any advice is appreciated ❤️❤️

Escaped while he was cared as i was cleaning. Smh

Hi,

Lulu loves to play game and we try this one…we want to know if she likes it or does it make her stress? If you guys think she hates it and she want to protect her zone we will stop « playing » this game!!

Ps : she is still fertile, but we got enough money to stérilisé her! (It’s over 1000$ in my town)… In two weeks she will be sterile. But for now, she’s not…so maybe she really does not like this silly game!! I just want to be sure so she’s not stressing.

You can hear her make sounds

He doesn’t like being all wrapped up but I have to do it to give him meds, also it’s the only time I get to hold him so I must take pictures. His back legs aren’t as strong anymore at 9 years old but the meds help him get around better. I suspect and the vet suspect arthritis is the issue but besides that he seems to be doing well.

I wish I had him for all 9 years but I’ve had him about 3.5 years I believe. Even when he can’t get around though he goes crazy for the nanners

whenever her head is down in the box and a sound is made she’ll pop up and look around. just thought it was cute

Delete if its not allowed.

Irrelevant rant:

I had to delete my whole camera roll of 26,093 rabbit and animal pics after uploading to google photos. Currently am traumatized cause I thought it deleted them completely on google photos as well. Thankfully it didnt i still have the 26,093 bunny pics!

Yesterday, I made a post about this severely neglected bunny. Today, I was able to pick him up and safely bring him to Lucky Bunny Rescue in Southern California.

His life changes today. For the first time in years, he’ll have room to run, other bunnies to bond with, fresh veggies, and people who will care for him the way every bunny deserves.

This is the ending I was hoping for. And as a reminder, if you see an animal that needs help, speak up. You may not be able to change the world, but you can change a life.

I asked my colleagues (I work in sports media) to send me pictures of how their cats were watching the World Cup matches together with them. Instead I got this:)

Turned out, our boxing editor has rabbit, and this fluffy thing is a perfect helper while watching sports, At least we can make a nice sticker pack for reactions based in his face expression:)

He's hiding and I can't find him, please someone help me!? 😅

EDIT posted update video on her down in the comments please look at that one for an update on how shes currently doing !

Recently got a bunny after losing another quite suddenly and so I feel worried about signs of distress I could be missing. Right now she is loafing and grinding her teeth a bit, and I can’t tell if shes stressed or relaxed rn. Any opinions? Still trying to learn bunny body language. Also fyi, I know her bedding is moved off, she has plenty but one of her quirks is she likes to move it all into a pile and switch between sitting on the flat surface and sitting on the pile lol 🤷‍♀️ doesn’t matter how much I fix it she just wants it that way!!

Edit for new commenters who don’t wanna read all comments
- didn’t realize how much assumptions would be made so I didn’t get into details before, but I am not her owner actually ! My parents bought her and I am taking up the responsibility of trying to research to help her have a good life because I care a lot about animals and their wellbeing. The negligence was on their part not mine :0 !!
- am getting her a bigger space that’s attached to this one, this is a temporary setup during a heatwave. shes used to living in a space outside and i think shes sad being in the garage rn
- other bunny died due to my parents ignorance, I am trying to learn to relay to them good info so then that can be prevented ! I am trying to help her and save this one! I am not the one who was negligent! They chose to take on this animal and I’m trying my best to help her, this was not my choice to own her
- my #1 priority in life right now is making sure she is ok, checking on her, assessing her needs, and relaying to my parents anything that should be purchased for her! I assure you properly taking care of her is a BIG concern of mine hence why I reached out !

as he has gotten older, he has made much more noise but I’m worried that his breathing indicates something wrong with his lungs after my friend blew vape in his face

My girl, Lola, was rescued 2.5 months ago from the outdoors. Her previous owner let her free roam the backyard and neighborhood most of her life. She does not really like hay. She will eat the oat seed pods from oat hay but not the stalks and she will sometimes eat orchard hay. I’ve gotten 1st, 2nd, and 3rd cut Timothy from Small Pet Select and she won’t eat any of it. I’ve also gotten Oxbow Botanical hay which she will maybe eat a couple pieces here and there. I know they only fed her pellets.

Today I grabbed a handful of grass and she devoured it, which makes sense since she grew up on it. My question is, how much is too much for her? If this is the only thing she’ll eat, is it enough fiber to keep her from going into stasis?

Casey is a rescued rabbit from China, only about 1 month old, and his sex is not confirmed yet.

Before he was rescued, he was shipped by express delivery after being sold online, but the buyer never came to collect him. Because of this, he was left without enough food and water for several days before being found in a very weak condition.

After rescue, he was taken in by an experienced rabbit rescuer who has helped many abandoned animals before.

Recently, Casey developed heavy breathing after choking on water. Vets later found an enlarged heart, but his condition is still not confirmed. More tests are needed to understand how serious it is and whether it may be genetic.

Right now, Casey is supported with a second-hand oxygen concentrator, used to DIY a basic oxygen setup to help him breathe. However, the system is not stable and may not be enough in the long term.

The rescuer is also facing limited resources, making it difficult to continue further testing or improve his care setup.

I’m posting this here to ask:

If I wanted to share Casey’s story on Instagram or Facebook, how would you structure it so more people actually see and engage with it?

What usually works better there — short captions, longer storytelling, or carousel posts?

he’s a healthy 6 pounds and they gave me medication for his neck balding they said it was self resolving and said it was probably from moving to a new home! and his teeth are healthy!! he also stole a towel from the vet and now is laying with it 😂 (they didn’t mind)

Hey! So, we recently got our own bunny like 2 days ago. (He’s not the main focus though.)

But today, we found a poor baby bunny stuck at the bottom of our 6 foot drop staircase.

This staircase is built in a way where animals unfortunately cannot get back out, and is a SHARP 6 foot drop.

After this, we’re going to be putting up some sort of fencing around the area so other creatures won’t be injured like this again,

But this guy is keeping his back leg up, refusing to let it touch the ground. I have reasons to believe he possibly fractured it or broken it on the way down.

And now, i need advice on how to help this poor baby in the meantime while we contact our local vets to see if they’ll take in an injured bunny.

We are keeping our bunny away from the wild one :)
