We are thinking about gettin one since now that I have gone gluten free I am not allergic! YEA! :lol: We live in a small house with a fair yard ( but pestisided unfourtunately, I wouldnt take him/her out there though :unsure: ) We have been reasearching dwarf rabbits for a while now, and we think we have the correct home for one. We were hoping to find an extremely small one that was litterbox trained. I need to know how you would go about getting electrical wires away from the little one. I also wanted to know if there was a gluten free rabbit pellet or if they could just live off of veggies, fruits and timothy hay. I also wanted a few good tips about having one. :D

I've been on vacation or I would have responded sooner. I had a rabbit when we lived in a small townhouse. Great pet. They need time out of cage but need to be confined if you are not there. We pushed the furniture up against the wall so he couldn't get the wires behind them. I'm not sure what was in the pellets but mostly alfalfa or timothy hay. Timothy hay is better for adults as alfalfa has a lot of calcium for young buns if I remember right. Mine wasn't a fan of most fruit, but they do love veggies. Don't give watery things like iceburg lettuce or the red part of watermelon. Where we live there are rabbit rescue groups that can help you, too. We made a large enough cage to fit a litter box & give him room to move. No wire bottom as that is uncomfortable for little bun feet. He figured out how to open the cage & it took 2 or 3 different tries to find a closure he couldn't open. They love sweets like chocolate or cinnamon liquor (would lick the drips on the bottle on the bottom shelf.) I'm not saying to give that to him/her but as a warning. We took him out in our tiny yard to eat the grass but didn't put anything on the grass. Tried to eat any flowers I planted. Good luck!

We are thinking about adopting 2 dwarf rabbits for my kids to do 4H showing.

We only had our previous rabbit out when were able to watch him. They really are little fur balls of personality and fun. He loved bananas.

They have some listed on www. petfinder .com but the adoption prices are really high.

Good luck with your bun bun! :D

      CT with contrast.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?

      Chances of being coeliac

      @JettaGirl, "Coeliac" is the British spelling of "celiac". Same disease.

      This may sound ridiculous but is this supposed to say Celiacs? I looked up Coeliacs because you never know, there’s a lot of diseases related to a disease that they come up with similar names for. It’s probably meant to say Celiacs but I just wanted to confirm.

      I was told it was to see how much damage has been caused. But just told CT with contrast not any other name for it.
