  Cocoa is starting her first molt. I’m worried she will eat too much fur when she grooms herself. Whats the best grooming tool? I will groom her when I give her her plate of veggies so she sits still. What is the most effective tool that I most likely have at home

  People do use lint rollers. I think they’re best for fairly short haired buns, which yours are aren’t they? I never had much luck with one though. Peanut hated it, it was too ‘sticky’ and pulled too much. It might be worth a try tho! If not, I would just try the dog brushes you have and see what works best for your bunnies. So long as it isn’t rough on their skin and doesn’t pull harshly, give whatever brush you’ve got, a go

  I tried lint rollers and they hated them. Lily is in the middle and Cocoa has pretty long hair. She isn’t that fluffy but her hair is thick and long. I found a rubber brush that works great. It’s kind of like a grooming glove but on a brush. Cocoa loves it. She laid on my lap and fully stretched out for half an hour while I brushed her. And as a bonus, it works to remove all of the fur off of me
