There could be some chinchilla ( a rabbit breed in case you didn’t know, not an actual chinchilla.)

I’m not sure either, this is a very nice thread though!

Here’s a picture of a wild bun that came to graze on our lawn this morning. I asked if he wanted to come live with us, but he was like “Nah, I’m good”. 😉

Thanks for the update! Sounds like a wonderful outcome given the circumstances!

Is your female spayed? Un-castrated bunnies are very stinky.

Hi,

Just to round off the saga, I wanted to say that Tony found a loving home. They have a female rabbit of the same age that wants a friend. I initially said absolutely not, after the Phil saga, but when they met they were flopped next to each other (through adjoining pens) within 5 minutes (to compare, Phil tried to rip Tony’s face off through…[Read more]

If you’re concerned about the rabbit having allergic reactions to you, I would not worry about that. There’s nothing about a human mouth that’s going to set-off a rabbit, nor braces (even if there was, I don’t imagine your rabbit will have exposure to your braces).

If you’re concerned about you have allergies to the rabbit, that has nothing to do…[Read more]

Ok no problem. Thank you both for your insight! I’ll try out air fresheners and air purifiers to see if that helps. Worst case scenario, I’ll have to clean the litter more frequently. thanks again for sating my curiosity!

I’m afraid if allergic reactions or something I’m not sure

I also live in an apartment. Unfortunately, I don’t think there’s any way to control it aside from cleaning the box of the poo….

@Susanne – thanks for mentioning Elmer! It’s good to know there are males that show this as well.

I wouldn’t see why not. What concerns do you have specifically? If you’re concerned about fur getting caught, I imagine your braces won’t actually come in contact with your rabbit, as your lips will be covering your teeth.

I’ve only had my 2 rabbits, but Elmer’s (male) poop does have that onion smell a little, and Ruby’s doesn’t smell at all. Just some perspective that it’s not always the female that smells worse :p   The smell doesn’t seem to go past their room, so in my case (or my nose got used to it), the hay smell is stronger and kind of covers it up. I used t…[Read more]

Thank you! Her poop has that onion smell as well. I was hoping it would die down because it’s not super pleasant! Have you figured out a form of odor control that works? I live in an apartment so want to minimize odor if possible.

From my personal experience, a rabbit’s diet can impact the smell they give off in general. When I first adopted my 2nd rabbit, female (spayed), she smelled as well. I think it was a result of the pellets they gave her, as the smell generally went away after 2 to 3 months.

Her poop is very strong smelling though. It is the characteristic onion…[Read more]

I was waiting for Cookie to quit foot fetishism after surgery. 😆😆😆

But before the surgery we were very close with Cookie. We slept together, we watched TV, we played all the time, even when I was in the bathroom, he would wait for me at the door.. now our relationship is cold, he acts so maverick and doesn’t play with me. I also have to give…[Read more]
