I use rodent shavings. I live in Turkey. Rodent sand is very difficult to find and expensive in Turkey. I have to use rodent shavings. 😐😐

I don’t want to confine it to a small place. I can’t stand to do this. I have to wait a while to sterilization my bunny. How happy is with me even now. We sit on the sofa and watch TV. 😀😀

What kind of litter are you using? Some types aren’t as absorbent as others.

I see a little tail to boop!!! 😀

It looks like a pee stain to me too. I clean my bunny’s toilet every day. 🤦🤦

Doesn’t have trouble peeing. But still I was worried. It looks like a pee stain to me too.

Unfortunately, the pee and poop is mostly hormone-related at this stage. Litter training will be pretty much impossible until he is neutered because his hormones are telling him he needs to mark his territory. All you can do is confine him to a smaller area until you can get an appointment.

Could it be stress-related? Sometimes self-mutilation can extend over to an adjacent bun.

Young bunnies tend to be on the lean side until they stop growing size-wise. When that happens, they start to fill out more. What are you currently feeding him?

You were being snippy? I didn’t read it like that. No worries. Even if she’s “supposed” to be an 8lb bunny, 1/4 cup of high quality pellet still isn’t an insane amount of food. You could cut it back a little, but I think a bunny her size should get more than a couple tablespoons worth. It depends on the bunny though, what else they are getting,…[Read more]

It looks like a urine stain to me. Since he’s young, the most logical explanation is he is sitting in dirty litter.

Yes, this sounds like gas pain-related behavior. As tobyluv said, you want to keep an eye on the situation and be proactive with helping them work the gas out. Otherwise, if the pain persists, it can lead down the road to GI stasis.

He’s so cute! I’ve got no experience with bunnies and stairs, but we do have a senior rabbit who always loved to climb. He’s a bit stiff and we’ve built a ramp for him to get onto the bed. It’s about 0,5 m high, 1 m long, and 30 cm wide. It’s covered with a sticky anti-slip foam mat. He even runs up and down it, so I wonder how a younger bun will…[Read more]

Breintje is very tiny indeed, he’s about 1,3 kg. For a Netherland Dwarf that’s pretty big, but he’s probably a false dwarf. That means that he didn’t inherit the dwarf gene, but because he’s still a Nethie he’s still a very small bun. My BF’s previous rabbit was a true dwarf girl, a Nethie as well, and she was about 1 kg.

I once took a picture of…[Read more]

Pretty sure today was just the construction noise. He still came when I called him, but then would run back under the couch and flick his feet and even stomped. The second I closed all the windows and played some mellow music for him he seemed better. He came out from his hiding spots and got in a comfy looking bun loaf. He also flopped a bit.…[Read more]

Some buns play a bit hard to get, especially when they’re young and energetic. At that age our bun was a little bouncy ball of energy and was way too busy playing and tearing up phone books to be petted. I don’t know if she’s a dwarf breed or dwarf mix, but these breeds can be more aloof. Our bun is a Netherland Dwarf.

Rabbits are a prey species,…[Read more]
