  How does every rabbit owner deal with Rabbit hair ?? I am trying to get Babs use to me combing him. We get his hair everywhere. I have to run the sweeper every other day.

  Regular brushings help, but honestly when they shed their hair gets everywhere, just like a dog or cat. When Powder went through his molt it got EVERYWHERE and I vacuumed daily to get it up. When he’s not molting, brushings and weekly clean up work.

  I also use a lint roller on toys like sisal rope and on my cloths I do run a dirt devil everyday to pick up the hair.

  I would get the hair buster from Binkybunny’s store. It has rubber in between so the hair doesn’t fly all over when you brush them, It just stays in the comb.

  Thanks everybody for the input. i also invested in a room air purifier. It sould help with the hair I hope. it said it does. Know just wait and see. Is their wipes for Rabbits since they dont like baths ? I thought I seen then somewhere. I saw the comb ( hair buster ) planning on getting one. The ones I have been using are not working.

  rabbits don’t need baths or any kind of cleaning besides brushing. They are just like cats and groom them selves allot! No need for wipes.

  Oh, its become the a layer on everything around here…. All of my clothes are now 17% rabbit fur… I dont think my carpet used to be gray but it is now despite how much I vacuum… I often say that 100 yrs from now when my art is finally famous, they will be able to spot an original piece for the bunny hairs somewhere in the paint.
  
  But seriously, all good suggestions here. The hairbuster is the ONLY comb that gathers any fur. Cat brushes do not do the trick and are a waste of your time. If the shedding is in clumps, you can gently tug at them and they pull out, usually pulling five more tufts of hair out to be constant nagging visible puffs of hair that you obsess over until you get bit (it doesn’t hurt them, I think it ticks them off though) and finally, another trick is to get your hands slightly wet and run them down bun’s back, youre now a yeti but it rinses off pretty easily….
  Dont touch your mouth while grooming, bunny hair likes to get stuck in the back of your throat and linger for weeks.
