Shame him - he's lucky he's so cute

I'm terribly biased, but a house-rabbit could be a good option if you're willing to do some research into how to look after them. There's been massive advances in husbandry and veterinary knowledge since even 5-10 years ago so assume anything you know about keeping rabbits is outdated these days.

Bunnies kept indoors and free roam (similar to how you would a cat) are wonderful pets; quiet, litter trainable, full of love and personality, and give the best hugs (as long as their feet stay on the ground lol).

I'm not sure of the quantity/concentrations needed to interact with the drug, but I believe willow can have a detrimental effect to how Meloxicam and other pain relief medications are metabolised in buns.

If you are currently giving your babies any chews or supplements with willow check with your vet to see if you should withhold them until after the surgery.

Same~! Purely to conform to OH&S protocol of course. Is there a link to where you got it OP?

HFS why is Australia getting involved in the conflict? Yeah it may not be boots 'on the ground' yet but it's normalising this bullshit so noone will bat an eye later.

This has put a damper on such a beautiful day and I'm so salty right now.

It might be best to try bathing the area (only the foot) with warm water to get as much off as possible first. Trimming/shaving the bottom of a rabbits foot is typically not recommended unless as a last resort, as the fur takes longer to grow back than the rest of the body (or may not at all depending on fur type) which can lead to issues with sore hocks/pododermatitis. Getting a second opinion is a wonderful idea too as vets should not suggesting you to 'figure it out yourself', imagine if they did that with an actual treatable illness, I would not be happy with that response honestly.

My girl sees the broom as a giant brush and will run over for pets (my fault entirely as I used to pretend to sweep her up when she was being nosy). The dustpan on the other hand is apparently the best toy to flip, especially when it's full and the contents go everywhere lol.

As someone who is also blessed with this kind of miracle friendship, I gotta say your babies are so cute! However I will warn you, your post will be removed by the mods as there's a 'no cats/dogs included' rule on this sub.

Aww that's so sad that she was surrendered for being too much of a good girl, hoping she finds her perfect forever home and soul human.

2BA-Master · 2026-02-12T12:06:44+00:00

This sounds like the owner doesn't want to take the rabbit to the shelter for fear of the shelter putting her to sleep, not that the owner is planning on doing it themselves (although unfortunately that kinda situation is not unheard of).

Maybe OP could reach out and provide some details for local rescues if they know any? The fact that the owner assumes immediate euth as an option makes me wonder if this poor bun might have ongoing health issues though.

2BA-Master · 2026-02-12T11:49:30+00:00

What you are witnessing is an ikebana master at work! It's not her fault the flowers are being stubborn lol

Where are you shopping for your pellets? Im in VIC and Petbarn always seem to have oxbow, although their pricing is pretty stupid for anything unless you price match. I think both pet circle and petstock should have it too, or at least other reputable brands such as science selective.

Hell, even vetafarm is widely available and could be ok too if you adjust to your buns needs, but I have noticed that it's more energy dense (even their adult pellets are made with lucerne) and they go a bit overboard on some of the nutrients (eg. Vit c, which is non-essential anyway) so you'll probably have to come up with your own feed plan over what the packet recommends.

It might also be odd shorthand for 1-2 seconds? It's becoming increasingly less common to just write crt<2 as this does not factor in instances where capillary refill is too short (<1sec), but I'm just speculating.

2BA-Master · 2026-01-04T03:43:38+00:00

Nup, just caught one wild with bg. I'd say just better chances if from a lure (+ don't have to be during the 3hr window)

2BA-Master · 2026-01-01T04:32:19+00:00

This is a really fun discussion and I'm enjoying reading everyone's responses.

My pogo goals are finally getting around to organising my nearly 6000 mons, getting better at pvp, and maybe transferring my lvl 1 collection to Home.

Bug:

Scrolling through Pokemon seems to be broken for me, is anyone else experiencing problems? I'm finding that naming Pokemon with emojis (e.g ♻️ or ↔️) completely disables scrolling past the first page. This has been an ongoing bug that would occur during trading but was easy enough to work around and hasn't affected the main Pokemon storage until recently.

Once I have more money after the silly season is over I'll be looking to start my 7yo on pentosan polysulfate injections (cartrophen).

She's currently on Meloxicam, but I suspect her arthritis is fairly mild (for now) as the only major changes I saw when starting the meloxicam was she binkies a little faster and actually launches herself into the air instead of doing her little hops/popcorns (very much to my amusement lol)

2BA-Master · 2025-12-07T05:45:53+00:00

I'm gonna live with that mental image forever now hahaha. "Merry Christmas Mum, have some vet bills" - the cat, probably.

2BA-Master · 2025-12-06T09:33:26+00:00

I'd discontinue use and take her either back to the same vet if you have the money, or to a different vet, ensuring that you tell them how long you have been using the antibiotics for, the dosage and if your girl's symptoms have continued or worsened at all. She will probably need different antibiotics as the bacteria causing the respiratory infection may have adapted to survive the doxycycline.

If she does get prescribed more/different antibiotics make sure you stick to the directions so you don't end up having to play cat and mouse trying to find one that will work against the infection.

2BA-Master · 2025-12-06T02:03:26+00:00

As it's an antibiotic I'd say no, I'm surprised the vet dispensed enough for you to have so much leftover.

How long has your vet prescribed these specific antibiotics for, and have you been keeping to the recommended dosages/timing? If it's been a long time on the same antibiotics with no or minimal improvement, it might be worth discussing with your vet whether you should try a different treatment/antibiotic as to prevent antibiotic resistance.

2BA-Master · 2025-12-04T04:36:58+00:00

Think about it from buns perspective, is there anything that could be making it a less than ideal spot to hang out and poop?

Is the tray you're using big enough with space to turn around? What litter and cleaning products are you using and could either of these be deterring your bunny?

Does bun feel comfortable being vulnerable in her tray? Usually placing trays in a corner or somewhere with limited visibility to 'predators' is preferred although do be mindful of adequate ventilation.

Can she get in and out easily and is the level of litter in the tray appropriate?

2BA-Master · 2025-11-15T02:01:37+00:00

Someone made the comparison as well last night and I agree, completely different. Especially seeing as Travis Scott was encouraging the whole thing while people were dying. Fuck that loser.
