Thank you! She was fine!

It’s always a fine balance of how much they will like it, how long it will last, and cost! I think the cardboard cat scratcher couch is a great idea.

It’s funny, Bun Jovi hates nail trims the most, but is always the fastest to forgive! I think he just forgets in his old age LOL

Binkies can be playing, and also a dominance display! It’s not uncommon to see binkies during bonding sessions. Not necessarily aggressive, but saying “look how strong I am and how much I am not phased by you!”

Thanks for your inputs. I am getting the ikea doll beds for their “beds”. I am getting the cardboard cat couch, thanks for the idea. The hidey hut is made of seagrass which my bunnies love… it would be gone in a day, for 25 dollars I would want it to last longer then a day.

He is adroable! When I got my rabbit his name was Gimli too.

It sounds likes he is playing with the female! Maybe try putting them in a netural spot overnight? Sounds like it is going good so it might be a good idea to try… but I don’t know much about what is going on when they are in the same spot so only if you think that they are ready ready.

Poop sizes can vary throughout the day. If you’re finding big and small mixed in the litter box, they are probably different “deposits”. This isn’t to say an odd one doesn’t get mixed in with an otherwise uniform batch of poops every now and then.

It’s good they have (mostly) forgiven you. Grudges around here can last a lot longer than just a couple of hours. 🙄

Rabbits can develop sensitivities as they get older. Something that was OK when they were younger, they no longer tolerate as they age. This is true to some people and other animals as well. My dog, for example, developed a sensitivity to grain when she got older. It was causing a lot of stomach upset, so we had to switch her to a grain-free diet.

Thank you so much for the reply and tips, and it’s alright lol. It’s was a mixture of large and small, I broke one up and it seems to be dry and crumbly. And no they don’t have any hair in them.

But at the same time she has been eating the same food for years now.

I shall try it out!

Also in general, if you notice anything weird with poop, encouraging them to eat more hay and drink more water is usually the first step.

Hmmm, was it just 1 big one or a mixture of large and small? Which size is more normal? If you break one up does it seem crumbly or wet? Do they have a lot of hair in them? (sorry for all the questions!)

Sometimes a random big poop can happen during molting, or when two poops get stuck together on their way out.

In other news, we trimmed all the buns’ nails tonight. Feels so good to get them all done! Everyone has mostly forgiven me LOL

Yay! Congrats!!

A food sensitivity or dental issue seems more likely to me, but it’s definitely not a bad idea to add some hay and water to her play area!

I still think (as long as she’s eating enough hay), going hay-only for a while is a good next step. It could even be an ingredient in her pellets that’s not agreeing with her (some buns are really sensitive to…[Read more]
