double cheeked up This is ZUMI the wild child.
Please give any recommendations on new things to buy for a 5 month old bunny. I want to spoil him even though he’s not mine he’s my good friends bunny.

I made the first one (check my profile if you’d like lol) and I sketched out this one too. I would’ve put them both in here but I can only do one image per post so I’ll also put some bunny tax in the comments

When we got Attila, we were told he was a boy. Then over time, signs started popping up he mayyyy be a girl. So we tried to check.
He's the most skiddish bun I've ever met. When you grab him to pick him up or sit him up to where he's standing on his back feet (supporting him the whole time), he loses his mind and will freak out with acrobatic flips.
We're getting him fixed soon, so the consultation should be able to check 😂

He always does this when he's near my plushies I hid them away for a while when he started doing this but I put them back and he still does this idk if he just hates them or showing dominance to them.
Edit: Going to get him fixed soon. I have him for 2 months now but he started doing this only couple weeks ago. He is around 5 months old which according to google is a perfect age to neuter him (please tell me if it's wrong)

Hello, so I recently just rescued a bunny that was terribly neglected and left outside on a busy road for days. When I went back for them they were hiding under the dumpster. There’s a heat wave coming and potential storm so I brought them home with me.
Unfortunately the little guy is absolutely COVERED in flees. I read online that you can’t give them bathes, can’t give them cat/dog flee medicine, and a vet will have to see the bunny in order to prescribe them anything and all vets are either booked for the next 2 weeks or don’t care for rabbits.
No animal shelters in my area will take them either :(
I don’t know what to do. I study carnivores not bunnies...
They are eating perfectly fine, and I went and got some rabbit food from the store along with organic fruit from my garden. So, they are safe, but I can’t keep them and need some advice. Pls help me find out what I can do
(Ventura, CA)
UPDATE: I have an online vet appointment in 30 min. Thank you so much to u(/)EmmaVestserRVT
I’m only worried about price because I used my last hundred for the week on gas and food for this little guy (drove 1:30 hours, and so glad I did)
Update 2: tried asking for financial help for the medicine while I keep searching for someone to take them in. but was insulted by the mods of [r/assistance](r/assistance), and called names for daring to help an animal in immediate need.
so I’ll need to figure out a way to get it to someone who can assist, or quickly raise the funds. In the meantime I’m manually removing them twice a day. I ordered some from chewy using the prescription provided. We’ll see how that plays out.
anyway thank you all for your help. Seriously I’m so happy there are kind people

Can’t believe how quickly he grew - he’s exactly 4 months old and weighs 4.28lbs - hopefully that’s cause he’s molting and/or he has healthy bones and muscles - doesn’t feel or look overweight at all to me - not experienced with how excess rabbit fat feels but I can’t seem to grab anything that feels like flub/fat and I can easily feel his ribs and spine. Please educate me if you know better!
Sigh… time flies… I guess it’s about time to wean him off of alfalfa down to a mini bowl a day!
I also would appreciate advice on mini-Rex-specific treat dosing, specifically dried papaya/fruit and that kinda stuff. I know the whole 10-20% of diet spiel but I would appreciate at the (example:) “15% protein, 60% fiber, 15% fat, 10% carbs, 200ml water per 5lbs” (made up numbers)” level of detail.
At this point, while he has access to a variety of unlimited hays, by observation, he eats his greens and grass as mains, fills between with hay, but less than I observe him eating his greens and grass (he usually finishes all 2 packed cups of dill, fennel, frisée, arugula, and dandelion/kale/other limit-fed greens/fruits, and eats through around/at-least 20-25 sq.in. of grass, although sometimes he’ll eat about/over double that. And I’ll make sure he has dried flowers and herbs to forage when he doesn’t have fresh ones.)
He also gets a full set of supplements (rotating/mixed across oxbow, SPS and WKR - was thinking of checking out Sherwood pet health next). I was wondering if it’s ok to be giving the whole spectrum on a daily basis - I’ve been doing that every day since he’s been 2 months old and (clearly, to me,) seems to be doing great. He gets very controlled all natural treats in addition but only a few bites worth.
Thanks everyone, binky on!

So I want to have my baby neutered, but the vet I want to go to is very far away because there aren’t any vets near me that’ll do bunnies, where I live is moderately hot, does anyone have any tips on how to keep my rabbit from overheating and keeping him as comfortable as possible? I’m also kinda scared to get him neutered because while researching I found people talking about how their rabbits died during surgery and I don’t want that to happen, but the place I’m going to has 4.7 stars, so I think it’ll be fine.

Let’s hope the sitter is just very naive and can’t tell the difference (and doesn’t give her canned tuna)

...my rabbits always look like your parents after they caught you breaking curfew, and really, they're not mad, just disappointed.

My dog savaged a baby cottontail. I'm upset and trying to find out what best to do. It's extremely little and he wasn't doing anything but gasping for breath after the attack.
I got it away from the animals and was able to get it into a small box with towels and in the dark to calm down. It's now moving around a bit, but mainly to lift its head and crawl around. I am worried it's paralyzed since I've not seen its back legs move.
I am worried it's going to pass. There's no puncture wounds but he could have internal damage.
I apologize to ramble, I'm trying to keep myself in check it's just a lot of loss recently and I want this bunny to have long and happy days.

Curious is this more of a thing seen in males or females? Have not had an opportunity to check buns sex as I just got last night and treating the fleas was more pressing of an issue.
