Just bought a mixed breed (a bit of Netherlands dwarf+lop) for my gf
Got the bunny and some stuffs from Toby Reptiles and Exotics at Ikano (subsidiary of Pet Lovers Centre, i think)
The 2 mths old bunny is super cute



Am new to bunny, n so is my gf, just wonder if these food n beddings that i bought is good enuf if not the best for the bunny or not

Bunny Basic pellets for young bunnies (cant rmbr d brand but cost rm39.90 for medium size pack)
Delikate Alfafa Hay
Chipsi Apple Bedding

I only have lotsa experience raising hammies but not bunnies, plz advise ya
Have read some of the advises to raise bunnies, but best to learn from forumers' experience

Thanks for the advice
The "toilet" thing that u r referring to is actually the hay tray. Because the bunny's small, the tray cant be use just yet as it's gonna b difficult for the bunny to eat
Thanks for the advise on the bedding
Will get another type later

Err...i bought d cage for rm130 there r 2 types, so i took d biggest
Bought a toilet for d bunny n change bedding n litter to woodie pet last nite

By d way, i found it weird coz bunny's poo poo is sticky n not round like d 1st day we got it...
Is the bunny having diarrhea?
Asked my fren who has a bunny, he said shud give unlimited hay n pellets (also, read in sites that said d same) but d petshop guy said not too much hay and pellet as it might cause diarrhea

Anyway, d cute lil bunny resting in d box that we brought back from petshop when v let it out from d cage still scared n not used to d surrounding

Oh, it shud b fine then coz it's not green but not round or oval shape poo, just like a 'slab of paste' which makes me worry...

The lil Bun-Bun
Healthy but picky at food, only eat d "greener alfafa leaves"
Prob with bunny is it doesnt know how to groom, so bottom part's a bit dirty coz of d sticky poo poo d other day..

Thanks a lot Am following advice on unlimited hay but the bun is so picky, we are filling up d cage with hay
Cant limit the pellets yet as not sure how much hay is the bun gonna waste, so put in more pellets than needed so that bun dun go hungry

Added on April 6, 2012, 4:26 pmWent to a vet today as bunny's poops consist of jelly like materials but not diarrhea
Vet gav antibiotics and asked us to feed it with english parsley and a bit of pineapple juice.

Problem: Bunny cant drink from bottle and so i use a bowl to fill water for it to drink. Prob's bunny likes to get inside the "pool" and is always wet :x:x
It's a weird behaviour! Plz advise.

My lil BunBun has passed away at about 1115pm last night
Sent for cremation early this morning
D vet said on Friday morning, bunny might be stressed coz of being away from herd n being in new environment which caused stomach upset...
Since it's just stomach upset, my fren who's a bunny owner said that my bunny might be a bit sick already when i got it from petshop..Anyway, did the best that i can do to take care of him and may lil BunBun rest in peace...

Thanks for the information bro
Yeah, agree with u that some of the petshops r not careful when it come to treatment to the pets coz they r just money making product...
I'll think of getting another bunny later, and will never get it from a petshop again...

Hi, just wanted to know what is the type of rabbit for ur bunny?
M thinking of adopting or buying either a ND or HL

Meet my ND, gf named it Oatbun
Just got it today, will send it to the vet for check up soon

2 months and a week+ (i guess), coz Pets More said they brought bunnies in 2 Saturdays ago
Went to pets more coz they got their bunnies from Beh & Yo

I see, didnt know that. No wonder they sell the beh & yo brand hays as well LOL

My cute lil bun Think i nid to get anti slip mat for lil bun...those holes r too big for bun's lil paws...
Oh ya, can i get those "litter mat sheets" (dogs n cats) for bunny? sorry, dont remember what's that thing called...

My poor lil bunny has mange...Vet injected ivermectin...hope that my bunny dun scratch her foot that much

I guess no pet stores can b fully trusted except for J Jay's, hahaha though Pets More got their bunnies from Beh & Yo rabbitry
My bunny visits d vet in Kota Kemuning, Parkhill (the contacts are available on d 1st page of this thread).
Good thing is that my bunny's very healthy, running around, eating, drinking, pooping and peeing happily only has mange (minor) issue
Tougher for me to take care coz need to clean cage everyday LOL

Hi bros n sis, just wonder if my netherland dwarf is a bit overweight
Gave too much pellets, i think
My lil Oatbun is 15 weeks old this week (3mths 3 weeks) n weights 730g last Saturday She only weights 270g when i got her at 9 weeks of age LOL and the past Saturday before the 730g, she was only 630g LOL

Pic of Oatbun in her super lil carrier

She's bigger, smarter n braver now used to scratch a lot coz of mange, now only d ear part left


My lil bunny doesnt like fresh veggie or fruits tried givin her baby carrots, cucumber, peppermint leave, romaine lettuce, grapes, apple, nothing works
Only like to eat nutri care's treat (is it d right name) n oxbow's vitamin c

Looks like mange infection to me. Get ur bunny to the vet and get that ivermectin shot for ur bunny. My bunny took 7 shots to recover to abt 95%, still hav a bit of prob on her ears (back). My bunny lost a lot of her fur on all her legs, tail wise, botak! She's back to her fluffy self now


10 weeks old now LOL big, fat n healthy

Yeah, she just hates fresh fruits n vege i tried giving her broccoli n again, rejects it LOL
She will 'throw' away those food that she dun like to eat, if i'm d one holding it n put close to her mouth n nose, she'll run away from me

Pic of my not so active bunny at abt 4pm+, looks bored but dun wanna come out LOL

RM15 for 1 check for mange mites under microscope by scraping of some dead skin, RM15-20 per jab coz it depends on ur bunny's weight, haha LOL my bunny only weights 270gm during her 1st treatment and 730gm during her last one That microscope check is only applicable for d 1st time to confirm types of mites oh ya, RM40 for ear mites cream (oily type) to help to speed up recovery. Bunny many need 4-8 jabs depending on severity of d infection, 1 jab per week. Oh ya, u'll need to wash the cage and everything in d cage with soap (dishwasher is fine) DAILY good luck, coz i did that for 7 weeks+
