Bunnies Of The Burrow

Bonbon is obsessed with the cats as well as the chickens. The cats politely tend not to notice him.

Bobbi’s settled in nicely and feeling relaxed ❤️

Bobbi really wanted to make friends with my toes🙈then he chinned them to make sure they were his (don’t worry no one else wants them Bobbi🤣).

Grooming time for Bonbon🐰 he does a wonderful job managing to groom a lot of himself despite his disability. The main thing he needs help with in grooming is his ears. I gave them a good clean today and it must have felt nice as he gave me kisses the entire time 💕

Two and a half weeks since Bonbon arrived and his leg and bottom skin are healing really well. I just gave his feet a little wash as they sometimes get a bit of urine on them and thought I’d show you the difference. I’m hoping he’ll be well enough soon to get desexed 🤞

Rescue ducks Matilda and Miss Honey here at The Burrow. Matilda was wandering for a few weeks in a busy suburban road until she wandered up someone’s driveway to try and get help. Miss Honey was stuck in a netball court in the suburbs, wandering up to ppl to try and get help. They are both Muscovy ducks which can fly really well. I’d love them to have free rein in the garden as the chooks do but they need an enclosed space due to their ability to fly. So I try to give them an enriching space. A large pond, regularly dug over soil for foraging, a cosy nesting place and they get pellets/ grain twice a day and chopped greens and grass once a day. Ducks are such inquisitive souls and love exploring, foraging and swimming. Muscovies give tail wags like dogs when very happy🥰 They’re real little personalities and very friendly to their humans once they trust them. All Matilda and Miss Honey’s old bedding and water go onto the garden to help the greens for the bunnies grow 🌱

Stevie proudly showing off his good size 💩 All bunnies do have slightly different sized poop but just because you have a smaller bunny doesn’t mean they should have very small poops. If their poops look hard and small , even if they are small in size themselves, it’s still worth getting them vet checked ✔️ ****Was just about to give Stevie a well overdue nail trim when we thought we would rake the opportunity to pass on that poop message. Stevie definitely didn’t mind his nail trim being slightly delayed 😉****

Everest is always very good at grooming his sheep toy. Both he and his brother Houdini love it. I can always tell when they are grooming it as it has a jingly bell inside 😁

Bonbon has been having some bladder sludge in his urine. I’m guessing it’s old and is starting to come out now his bladder is fully empty. So I gently massage his bladder every time I express it and it’s working well to get rid of a lot.

Given up on reading it now - using it as a bed instead

Loving his pellets 🙏🥰

Snack time together 🐰🐔 will definitely be looking into getting Bonbon some wheels. He really likes exploring and being active but tires quickly from dragging his back end. And although we hope he will eventually regain some mobility in his back legs, it will be a process and a wheelchair will give him some independence until that time
