I thought we'd create a new thread to chat.

Feel free to chat about anything as always :)

Hope you are well! :D

Sounds perfect luffly.

Got some stuff coming up so just send those vibes this way for everything to go in my favor. :D

Don't want to jinx it so I'll be secretive for now.

sends positive vibes sends positive energy sends positive thoughts

Thankies sweetheart. I need it. oy!

How's everything on your end?

Not too bad thanks, Thumper might not be well though which is worrying :(

How's your baby? Koda is it?

Oh no! What's going on?

Yes, Koda is doing alright, I messed up pretty bad the other day though. I didn't apply his flea and tick stuff correctly so it irritated him so he has a patch where it's scratched up skin. I feel horrible! :/

Thumper has been grinding his teeth. He's still eating, drinking and pooping okay so we're not sure what the problem is. We're taking him to the vets Saturday when we can get someone with a car to take us there.

Koda will be fine, it might not have even been you, sometimes animals just scratch a lot at one particular area.

Thanks for my gifts :D I LOVE them! :D

Are they long? Does he have something to chew that can help keep them "filed" down?

Yeah I know but it still makes me feel awful.

OH YOU! Glomps I love all my gifts! You shouldn't have!

That had occurred to me but he won't let us check his teeth which is why I'm taking him to the vets tomorrow.

As long as Koda forgives you then you should forgive yourself!

I loved spoiling you. It was so much fun :D

Hmmmmm...

Well you let me know.

Yeah but he's a cat, I'm HIS bitch. I dunno... lol

Me too!

I will do. I am sure he's fine and I'm just over-reacting otherwise he wouldn't still be stuffing his face at every available opportunity.

"Gentle, soft grinding of the teeth in a relaxed rabbit is communicates contentment (and sounds almost like a cat purring).

On the other hand, loud teeth grinding is a sign of pain or discomfort, and your rabbit will often also be tense or hunched up when this occurs. Interpretation: softly grinding teeth: "This is great" Loudly grinding teeth: "Oooh, I'm in pain and I don't feel good" (this also means a trip to the vet is in order as soon as possible)"

[edit]The best way to tell, is simply stroke and pet your rabbit. If the grinding then starts, you can be sure it is because he/she loves the attention. If however your rabbit is grinding its teeth while he/she is on his/her own in the run/room/hutch then is more likely due to pain. One of the more common reasons for this pain are teeth problems, but there can be other reasons!

"Bunnies sometimes show their enjoyment if you’re petting them by grinding their teeth. This is a rabbit’s way of purring. But teeth grinding can also signify discomfort or pain. Grinding due to pain is often louder and more frequent than grinding due to contentment. You’ll be able to tell the difference by observing other behavior in conjunction with the teeth grinding. For example, if the rabbit is lying down with his/her feet stretched out in a relaxed way, then the grinding demonstrates contentment. But if the rabbit is hunched and tense, doesn’t show an interest in moving or eating, or shows aggression, then the grinding signifies pain."

He does 'purr' sometimes and sometimes he grinds louder but his body language varies between laid down and hunched over while making either noise.

Well then the vet is the best bet, better to be safe than sorry.

Yes that is what we thought. I would rather they tell me that we are over-reacting!

Exactly.

It might be expensive but we'd rather pay it than lose him.

Amen girl!

Thankfully he is all well. He's even stopped grinding his teeth now so whatever was bothering has clearly been sorted.

How is Koda doing?

Love the background of your HA, very nice :)

Awesome! Wonder what it was...

He is well thank you.

Thanks again!

Btw message of happiness coming your way!
