I only feed chopped hay to young bunnies or sick ones to make them eat. The longer strands are much better to wear down their teeth and move their digestion system.

Hi guys..

I would like to suggest.. maybe we could make our thread more informative rather than 'sembang kosong'.

Some of us might be lucky to have rabbit-savvy vets around. But what about some of us who live in some areas that hard to find a rabbit-savvy vet, and have to work on their own when it comes to emergency?

Not many of us would take a great effort, and go extend/beyond to look for other alternatives when it comes to our bunnies. I believe, some of u might have a good info while googling around (Normally, we google most when our bunny is sick!). So why dont we share our knowledge here?? (Especially Sangterap & Beh smile.gif)

Sangterap, maybe we could put this info at the page #1 (Eg : FIRST AID KIT) So everybody can refer back to that page everytime we're facing an emergency and when the vet is not available.

I'm suggesting this bcoz i myself is building up my bunny first aid kit. I believe some of u also have your own bunny first aid kit, rite? Most of the rabbit owners in UK and US keep their complete first aid kit handy. I think we also should start one. But our problem is; some of the things we cant get in Malaysia. For example Benebac Probiotic, Simethicone and Pedialyte. And those items are A MUST in first aid kit.

I'm making some research n reading thru other rabbit forums (from UK & US). So i found a few alternatives and would like to share some info here. smile.gif

First of all, do u guys already own a first aid kit? What do u guys have in that first aid kit?? Come share with us!

perhaps the good vets we have talked about can be put into a list onto the first page of every version of the thread?

How about when we're facing an emergency and when the vet is not available? I 'm not sure i can trust vets in Penang anymore (regarding rabbits) as i have experienced loss (my Elnino & Shiro) when i dealed with vets. They're not a rabbit-savvy, and the sometimes the method they use is not even right!

Lets not talk about vets here, okay. I'm trying to gain and share everything u can do when u face an emergency esp during night-time, weekend or whenever ur vet is not around. Get it?

I'm so pity to see the new forumer came to our forum, posted up something like "MY RABBIT HAS STOP EATING. HELP!!" in the midnite and all we can say is "SEND IT TO THE VET!" But what about it is too late to send to the vet. A day later, we see the new forumer post up, "MY BUNNY IS DEAD!" and all u can say is ,"OMG SORRY TO HEAR THAT..." Kesian kan? If the new forumer has a first aid kit or do something to help his/her bunny, maybe the bunny can be saved, isnt it?

If u go to UK or US rabbit forums, u'll get different feedback from them. They will come out with emergency treatment for ur bunny, but the some of the items they mentioned are not available in Malaysia. (Actually we have them, but they come in different brands or names, so we have to find them with the help from internet and pharmacies.)

Maybe for some of u, it is no need to know all these since u trust ur vet so much. Well, the choice is in ur hands rolleyes.gif

I'm so glad i met a few friends who really determined and committed to their bunnies. And i learned a lot from their knowledge they gained from their friends from US and UK forums/blogs. (Thanks to Sangterap, 11Jan and CocoJune) wink.gif

i understand what u mean but the way u reply to my post is rude for someone whom is agreeable to your cause.
i think what she means is the list we have is also limited.
perhaps the person that recommends the vet can also give abit of details eg.

Owh so sorryyyyyy... I didnt mean to be rude sad.gif

What i'm trying to write here is a basic info/guideline on what we can do to help our little furries when it comes to emergency instead of taking them to the vet.

I'm sorry if my words sound/look rude sad.gif

Mmm, I'll bite.
A few days ago, while discussing what to get one of our best friends for his birthday with another best friend, the subject of pets came up. Eventually we thought about getting our best friend a rabbit. So we began researching about rabbits, then going around pet stores to look for them.
I fell in love with them ._. And now I want my own

I always wanted a pet but I am unsure whether I am capable of taking care of one properly. If I buy a rabbit, I do not worry about my money that is spent, but rather if the rabbit is going to be happy being my pet. I don't want the rabbit to suffer =(

So, I have these following questions that I hope the people here with experience with rabbit pets can answer before I make my decision whether to actually get one.

1. Are they ok being alone? I can't afford getting a pair, and it's likely that I will only get one if I do. I also leave early in the morning on most days to go to college, and come back only in the evening. There's nobody else in the house, except a housemate that I do not think will care much about the rabbit. That means for half the day it is likely that it will be alone in it's cage. Sometimes it might even be the full day and I only come back late midnight. I am worried that it will be lonely. Will they be lonely without someone else?
2. I live in a condo, so there's no open area that I can let it out to play around. No garden, no yard, at most only the balcony. Is that okay for a rabbit? Will they be comfortable if the temperature in the condo is relatively cool? (We have aircond on most of the time)
3. Where to buy? I have seen the ones from Pet Safari @ Ikano to the really nice ones that I really like at J Jay's Petstation but the ones at J Jay's are really expensive. I was quoted RM750 for the lop-eared one that I really liked. Are there any other places recommended to get a rabbit?

This is a picture that I took of the one that I liked:

I guess those are the immediate concerns I have. Hope you guys can help and guide me so I don't mistreat these little awesomes =]

Hi there! Answering ur question :

1) I would rather keep one instead of 2 bunnies. 1 bunny seemed to be more/easy to bond with human compared to have 2 of them. If u worried about ur bunny will getting bored, u can get varies/interesting toys for her/him. U can pat and play with him/her when u get home. They looooooove to pat, head-stroke and ear-rub biggrin.gif

2) U can let him/her play in the playpen with tunnel, boxes and other toys to keep him/her busy. 1m x 2m playpen is good enough.

Once in a while, u can take him/her out to the park, but make sure u have harness attached on him/her. Find a suitable harness for bunnies. The jacket-type harness looks fine, but some bunnies found it not comfortable as they feel like someone holding them. Just make sure the temperature is just nice for ur bunny. I keep my bunnies warm with a bit windy room.

3) I only know 2 breeders where u can get Holland Lop rabbit.
Tru-luv Rabbitry & Beh & Yo Rabbitry

Maybe the forumers can recommend u the other breeders/pet store u can approach to get ur dream bunny smile.gif
