Evet, I’m dealing with a new problem now. I bought a cat toilet for my rabbit to eat hay comfortably. Now it eats more hay. But my bunny started to pee in. I had a hanger but its hard to eat from it. What do you recommend me? If I hang the hay it eats less.

Evet, you remember correctly. But my bunny is small breed. It 3lb weight. Do you think it is ok? Should I change it?

@aeri: Oh, you’re right about the phone books… I had a dinosaur moment there 😳 Those things used to be everywhere, and now you have to request them if you want one. They were great bunny playthings, and great monitor stands as well 😉

Pet shops sell paper nesting material for hamsters, that can also do the trick. Maybe they’ll be more…[Read more]

Comb ordered, thanks.

As for pellet bedding, sounds great but isn’t it “slippy” and hard (ie… uncomfortable??)…

Perhaps adding a ‘dog bed’ style “sleeper”…  I’ve seen these, just wondered if they just pee in them.

He is such a mellow boy.  Had him out, some brushing with my old cat brush.  Baby bug, Kylee, 10 1/2 month old Pug was sn…[Read more]

Way to go! Especially nice to educate people as we approach Easter. 🙂

My diggers have all really liked cardboard cat scratchers, especially the ones that are different shapes.

Not digging specific, but my buns also all really like palm plates (if you search organic palm plate you will get some options).

I also use heavy ceramic tiles to block the spots of rugs they obsess over, especially along edge or corners.

Agree about the hair buster comb!

You could try pine pellets or paper pellets, and use a screen in his litter box. That would keep the shavings away from his fur.

It doesn’t look like mold to me, but it’s hard to tell from the picture.

Do you have any idea what ingredient in the pellets was causing the problem? Unfortunately, a lot of supplements have similar ingredients in them.

I can’t comment on what’s available in Canada. However, I can say that dried rose petals are pretty popular. A lot of bunnies like them. Just sprinkle a “pinch” on top of the hay.

Congrats! I can’t wait to see him! And Hairbuster comb… definitely. They sell that at the BB store.

@Wick ah okay good to know! He is a holland lop who is a year old so he’s on the smaller size I believe. So perhaps I will do the regular grids and then go to Home Depot for the coroplast and the carpet. I was looking on their site but I don’t know much about the carpeting. Do you have one you’d recommend?

Thank you again so much for all your…[Read more]

Thanks!

Also, he’s my first long haired bun, what’s a good brush?

Put paper litter in cage, sticks like crazy to his fur.  Would Aspen be better or.. ???

Yes, borders (the strip running up the walls) don’t really add that much structural support — coroplast is sturdy enough as it is.

For the flooring I have, it was a roll of 0.5in, high density memory foam. “Fleece” describes a variety of different fabrics, so the best I can say is I went to a fabric store, went to their “fleece” section, and…[Read more]

There is definitely some trial-and-error needed for those more energetic rabbits who aren’t very fond of “traditional toys”. I eventually figured out this was something that fit my more destructive rabbit’s “niche”. I binder-clipped fleece blankets and used an old Oxbow toy to “store” the fleece blankets. She loves pulling them and digging at…[Read more]
