I thought I'd share this since it cured one of my bunnies really fast.
One of my bunnies catches a cold every winter (I don't know why since the other bunnies never do. She keeps sneezing, has trouble breathing properly and has white mucus coming out of her nose) and last year I had to take her to the vets who gave her a jab and a weeks worth of medicine to give her daily. So this year, not wanting to have to put her through the stress of vets and needles again, I went to look for home made cures against colds and checked that each ingredient was harmless for bunbuns.
This was it:
-Boil about a teacup full of water
-Add a branch of thyme (or a tablespoon of thyme)
-Add 5 cloves
-Add a stick of cinnamon (or a tablespoon of cinnamon)
-Leave it all to infuse for 10 minutes
-Filter it all
-If it's for you well it's best to drink it hot
-If it's for you rabbit, wait until it cools off (tepid at the maximum, you don't want your bunny to burn his/her mouth) and put it in his/her water bottle
PS: I added a small quantity of multivitamin juice to the mixture to give her some vitamin C at least. I guess adding orange juice instead probably works too (but only a really small quantity if you don't want to give your rabbit diarrhoea).
She (and our other bunnies since they've got the same bottle) gladly drank it in the afternoon and in the evening she already stopped sneezing and was completely recovered by the next day.
Hope it helps if any of you or your bunnies have a cold.
Hail Father Satan!
