Veggies Shopping Time! 🥬🥕

With the amount of veggies we go through, my parents asked, “Why didn’t we just buy a larger fridge to store them?” Simple answer—we shop every 2–3 days to keep everything fresh!

The veggies we get are always from the latest delivery, ensuring the fluffies get the best and crunchiest greens. Nothing beats the sound of happy munching! 🐰💚

Facebook memories popped up today, reminding me of the 7 little lives we cared for 6 years ago. Among them were Mr. Ping (yes, all named after the character from Kung Fu Panda!) and Mr. Pong (his new friend after his brother Shifu passed), who stayed with us the longest. It was such a joy to watch them grow up and thrive under our care. Time really does fly! 💖

Murphy’s Spa Moment ✂️🐰

Miss Murphy had a little grooming session today—her tummy knots are gone, and her fluffy feet got a good brush! Being a long fur bun, regular grooming is a must She rewarded the one who held her with kisses… but completely ignored the actual groomer. Typical! 🫠

Just a reminder—we don’t offer full grooming services here. We only do minor trims if the fur is easy to manage, as we’re not fully equipped for grooming. Boarding and grooming are two very different services. Since we’ve been asked many times if clients can bring their buns here just for grooming, we want to clarify that we only groom the bunnies staying with us if it’s a quick and simple trim to remove knots. For full grooming services, we always refer to Fluffy Time Bun. ✨☺️

Welcome, Kiwi and Lola!
Say hi to these adorable sisters who will be staying with us for a short vacation.

Kiwi, being a lop, has had surgery on both her ears—but don’t be fooled, she seems to have developed a superpower for hearing the word “treats” from miles away! 😝 Lola, of course, is here to keep her sister company and charm everyone she meets.

Boba will be staying with us until next week, and this is his first time in boarding! We’re excited to make his stay as comfortable and fun as possible for this little lion 🦁

Unfortunately, Roxanne experienced another seizure this morning while waiting for her pellets to be taken out of the bon bon.

I zoomed in to capture the moment when she started to lose balance, falling backward, with full-body tremors, air chewing, and eventually going into a seizure. The entire episode unfolded within a matter of seconds.

Preventing seizures can be challenging, as there are numerous potential causes, many of which are not preventable.

If your rabbit experiences seizures, it’s important to document the following details for your veterinarian:

• The exact times the seizure started and stopped.
• What occurred immediately before the seizure began.
• The specific movements or behaviors your rabbit displayed during the seizure, and whether they were responsive. If possible, record a video of the episode for your vet.
• How long it took for your rabbit to fully recover after the seizure ended.

This information can be invaluable in helping your vet determine the cause and appropriate care.

Miss Roxanne’s Little Fight 💕

This afternoon, Miss Roxanne had her first seizure here. Thankfully, it happened while our amazing “junior staff” was in the room getting her plate for dinner. Calm and experienced with handling our fluffy friends with special needs, she acted quickly to keep Roxanne safe, gently holding her to prevent injury until I could get there.

Roxanne is such a little fighter! Despite the episode, she bounced back quickly, though she’s still a bit out of it. The cause of her seizures remains unknown after all her previous vet checks, but we’re keeping a close eye on her and tracking everything.

For anyone with a rabbit experiencing seizures:
• Stay calm and hold your rabbit gently to prevent flailing or injury.
• Note the time, as most seizures last under a minute.
• Comfort your rabbit with soft, quiet words as they recover.
• If a seizure lasts more than a couple of minutes or happens more than once within 24 hours, an emergency vet visit is a must.
• Track the events to monitor frequency and patterns.

Miss Roxanne back to her sweet self, and we’ll continue to give her all the love and care she needs while she is here for her vacation. 💖

Meet Roxanne (Roxy)!

Say hi to our new friend, Roxy! She’s one of the tiniest little buns we’ve ever met, weighing in at just 800 grams (yes, smaller than the piggies 😂).

Roxy also experiences seizures (unknown reasons), so this little girl will be watched like a hawk during her bunny 🐰 camping 🏕️ adventure 😂 .

How to Support a Rabbit with Head Tilt

Making adjustments to their environment and routine is key to their safety and well-being:

1. Create a Safe and Cozy Space:

• Add soft padding like towels or pillows to their enclosure to prevent injuries.
• A fluffy bed is a great option—it provides comfort, absorbs urine and liquids well, and helps keep the surface dry.
• If they are rolling or having trouble balancing, confine them to a smaller, padded area for their safety.

2. Protect Their Eyes:

• Monitor the “down eye” to ensure it doesn’t become scratched or dry.
• Apply vet-prescribed ointments to keep it moisturized and healthy.

3. Adjust Litter Setup:

• Use a low-entry litter box or let them relieve themselves on soft, absorbent flooring.

4. Assist with Eating and Drinking:

• If your rabbit struggles to eat or drink, adapt their dishes for easier access or syringe-feed them with Critical Care or similar supplements.

5. Handle with Care:

• Limit handling to reduce stress. If you must pick them up, hold them securely against your chest to provide stability.

6. Encourage Gentle Exercise:

• Once stable, allow supervised movement in a safe, open space to rebuild strength and coordination.

7. Provide Comfort Items:

• A stuffed toy or soft companion can be a source of emotional comfort.

8. Maintain a Calm Environment:

• Reduce noise, keep lighting soft, and create a quiet space to help them feel secure.

9. Explore Additional Therapies:

• Physical therapy, acupuncture, or other treatments recommended by your vet can aid in their recovery.

With the right care and environment, many rabbits with head tilt recover or learn to adapt well to their condition. Always consult a veterinarian for a tailored care plan that suits your rabbit’s specific needs.
