I wouldn’t read too much into it if it only happened once. Sometimes bunnies will just pee on soft things. If he starts making a habit of it, then I would be more worried that something else is going on.

Hello!

If it gives you some encouragement, we have a bonded male pair. 🙂 A Holland lop and a Dwarf Lion Head, Rocky and Napoleon, respectively.

We adopted them from the same shelter a couple years ago. They had been housed in the same cage at the shelter, but they weren’t a bonded pair. They hadn’t even come from the same home, I don’t think,…[Read more]

You could try uploading the video to a third party site. That’s what most people do.

Have you tried any other techniques recently? Like petting them together? Or putting them in a carrier together and going for a car ride (or similar distraction)? It sounds like they need a nudge of some sort.

So after years of me not having time or energy to bond them a lot, I kind of neglected the process, even though it pains me even now. But they always were curious of one another and even with the new barrier, they found a way to get in the same room. Mostly Pi is curious and going to Dorian’s room. I did bond them more lately. Now they can be in…[Read more]

My last post errored so I am not even sure all the text got in… And I couldn’t attach any video – “you are not allowed to attach media to this post”, is mp4 allowed here?

There is truly no minimizing the pain coming from losing a loved bun….

Regardless of activity level, BB always welcomes people willing to share, help others learn, and ask questions themselves. Recreational fun posts also liven things up too 🙂

It’s wonderful seeing your post. Time moves both fast and slow. I’m thankful things have been going…[Read more]

Hi BunnyLass! I’m glad you didnt delete your account and I’m glad to see you here!

Loss of beloved pets is very hard.

It really sounds that you’re making great progress! I hope it continues, I think it will 🤞🐰

I always read aloud to new buns. Just sit somewhere where they can hear me, I concentrate on the book, the bun just gets used to my presence and my voice.

Yay! That’s awesome! 😀

I’m glad to hear you are making progress!

I’m happy to report, 1.5 months in, she’s finally been spotted outside her townhouse during non-pellet time. Ok, maybe it’s partially the summer heat and she can only loaf in townhouse; must come out to lay down. She finally letting me pet her pre and post pellet eating without flinching.

Thank for the tip about playing music. Foster Bun’s…[Read more]

Hey!

Its good to see you! I’m glad you decided to say hello. 🙂

I ended up taking a long hiatus from the forums due to a bunch of dumb stuff happening in my life, but I missed everyone a bunch! So, I’ve been trying to be more active here lately. 🙂 Its awesome to see some old faces and its still the best place for bunny advice, in my opinion.…[Read more]

One of my buns is attracted to leather and pleather and will nose and move things to get to it. I wonder if there’s a smell that even covering and blocking didn’t really help  Luckily for me, I only have small items so I relocated them to cabinets.

Hi BunnyLass! I know what you mean. It can be hard after you lose your bunny and then there is a whole bunny forum where you are used to talking to others about bunnies. But it’s very nice to see you all the same. 🙂  The forum has been a bit slow lately, but I encourage you to stick around. Even without a bunny currently in your life, that…[Read more]

It could be many factors at play, but typically once a rabbit realizes they can just pee on a couch…. they’ll keep doing it. It’s like the seal is popped, haha.

I wouldn’t read too much human emotion into the why, just be grateful it took until now for it to happen. Most rabbits get to peeing on couches immediately. They smell a lot like human,…[Read more]

It’s tough to cover things they want to chew since rabbits are very drawn to things with “give”, so unless the cover is super tight, it might actually exacerbate the behavior!

Maybe try offering something more appealing on the couch (though I understand you don’t want random junk on your couch…). Plain cardboard cat scratchers are pretty well…[Read more]
