  My bunnies fur is stuck where the old meets the new. How can I fix it? There is an obvious line where almost an inch of new fur growth meets the old fur.
  You can feel the line all the way around the bunny.

  Molting takes time — for a healthy rabbit, the fur will release when it feels ready, so just be patient and check the molt lines every day. Molts work on their own mechanisms, so if the fur is still not releasing, it means it’s not ready.
  
  You’ll actually find a lot of photos of rabbits mid molt and there are some crazy looks out there because of it!

  You can just brush him and the old fur will come off when it’s ready
