Dear All,

My Hotot Bunny recently making sound (but not sure is Whimpering/Whining/Grunting sound) time to time, like while she resting or enjoying meal also make the same sound. Although that sound not happen all the time, but it already happened around 1 week plus. (Kindly refer video below and turn your speaker louder to listen her sound)

Youtube Link

p/s: Below is direct post for YouTube, but it keep on prompt error on playback..



My Hotot bunny info: Female, 7+ years old. Not spay yet.

She can sleep, eat, running around & poop as usual. Don’t see any uncomfort sign at the moment.

Have try called Hand n Paws for Dr Jenny appointment, but they say Dr Jenny is retired and they no longer offer vets for bunny..

Appreciate your feedback/advice. Many Thanks..

I've never heard that sound before.

U can try Hillpark vet in Kota Kemuning. They are rabbit savvy. Dr Lynette or Dr Loh. Number is +60351228386
They are closed on today Wednesday tho.

Another place u can try is St Angel Vet in Puchong. 03-5891 1884
I do not know if they are rabbit savvy but I did bring my rabbit there once for an xray.

Also post that video on FB "Rabbit Club Malaysia"
And also "House Rabbit Society". Maybe someone has heard that sound before and can help. Poor thing.☹

Many Thanks for your info.

Will make arrangement visit Hillpark vet.

Cheers..

You're welcome. I hope it turns out ok. Do keep us updated. Would like to know why she's making that sound and would like to know that she's ok.

Have went to visit Dr Loh @ Hillpark Vet.

She conclude our bunny have very light & clear mucus fluid at her nose area, can see it if use touch light directly beam at her nose area. That's why she make sound intermittently during her breathing.

Luckily only affect at nose area, still in clear color and didn't affect to breath system & lung area.

She have issue multi-vitamin to let her boost her health & monitor the progress.

She also advice like below:
- Clean her living area more frequent, especially toilet area. As our bunny like to rest & sleep at toilet area, so those bad germ already start challenging her health.
- Minimize all those powdery thingy like hay debris & pallet debris. (Just like human, if keep on breath with those dusty debris. Our nose will also get sneeze & nose will build-up mucus fluid)
- Minimize aircond to her (Also like human, dry air might also irritate the nose)

Hopefully she get well soon after we correct those finding.

Cheers..

Hope her health improves significantly and comes back to normal once you've addressed those issues. Thanks for sharing.

Hi guys, are these fur mites? I just got my bunny, shop put them all together inside a tank with wood shavings bedding so initially i thought it was the dust. Just now i properly observe again when i notice my bunny keeps getting itchy ears, the flakes looks like moving and a quick search suggest that it might be fur mites.

location on body or ear?

On body. Brought to vet, confirmed fur mites.
Have to reapply the medication every 2 weeks.
Phew, hope she gets better soon.

She wearing a cone?

Hello, i need advise

I suspect my bunny has GI stasis, but none of the nearby vet are open. And the one that are open, has no rabbit-savvy vet (i called all of them). Can i get some advise on caring for her while waiting for Monday?

She's not really eating and drinking. I feed her water using syringe, but dunno how to feed her. Her poops are tiny and not a lot. Got cecotropes droppings too. She's still moving around a little, but less active.

u need to get some
Critical care

if no shop open then try this

Thank you for the details, will keep it for future use (hopefully never haha). Luckily that day we managed to get into Vpac Mont Kiara, and my bunny was looked right away. She got better within a day with the medicines given, phew.

cant get over how cute this one looks...

I currently have a free range, potty-trained male rabbit. I'm thinking of introducing another one to keep him company but I'm afraid that will mess up his toilet habits or they won't get along. Are 2 free range house rabbits a lot of work? Can the new rabbit know where to poop and share the same litter box?

Usually new rabbit might need potty training for a while before they get it, since its not a cat. Maybe a suggestion is 2 litter box and confine the new rabbit to smaller area first with the litter box. After it gets used to it, you can put the litter box next to the current one, then eventually just use 1 litter box.
