Thank you for the update, I was getting worried! I’m glad she’s doing well. 🙂
Agree with Wick and Dana about the grooming. When Oscar is shedding I will put him up on top of his cage and pluck everything off. He doesn’t like it, but once it’s done I don’t have to bug him for a while.

Hehe Esther has a wonderful booplesnoot, doesn’t she? Best part is she doesn’t mind when I boop it lol.
I don’t know how he hasn’t been adopted yet, he’s so cute! I was actually thinking that too! He does look a lot like Dorian.
His pen is almost all set up now, we’ll be picking him up on Saturday! I’m getting very excited now lol

I think it’s good to start cementing during the lazy hours, but then be sure it continues on into the evening eventually. But yeah I’ve always done the first really long sessions during the day when everyone is sleepy. Bun Jovi and Bertha were driving me crazy because they would be great all day, then every evening a scuffle would break out.

Ooh yeah I agree with Wick 100%. My girls don’t like being groomed so during heavy sheds I will just pop them on the table and do a very deep thorough grooming once a week, rather than constantly plucking at them and driving them crazy. Bun Jovi does better with constant short groomings though, because he loves attention so much he doesn’t mind if…[Read more]

prince dorian the bun replied to the topic Help!! My rabbit ate an oak leaf in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 10 months ago
Oak tends to upset their stomach (I believe it’s the tannic acid in them), but as LBJ10 said if it was one they will be fine.
I have a bunch of different trees near our house so there are always leaves blowing in and a certain small rabbit always finds them before I have a chance to see it and pick it up… I panicked a lot in the beginning, but…[Read more]

Hehe thanks guys. He’s so stinking cute. 🙂
Nope this lil guy already has a name, Blaze. Like Esther we’ll be keeping it given how long he’s had it for. Great names though! 😀

Oh, what an adorable lil guy! 😀 <3 <3 <3 <3
Do you get to name him too? 🙂 If so, how about Thumper, Peter (as in Peter rabbit) Benjamin Bunny (from Peter rabbit 😆 ) Or Hopper?

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Grooming Cashmere Rabbit in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 10 months ago
I don’t know what a cashmere rabbit is (is it a cashmere lop? That’s what came up when I google’d!), but how often are you grooming and is it always necessary? Unless a rabbit is in a molt/shedding, you don’t need to have regularly scheduled grooming sessions (though it’s different for those long-furred breeds).
Positive association can go a long…[Read more]

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Why is my Medically Healthy Rabbit not Eating or Pooping? in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 10 months ago
Thanks for the update!
For grooming, I decided that higher-stress, more grooming single sessions is better than doing shorter and more sessions over time. My Wick, though he is half the size of my Fable, his fur type is longer and more dense, so he sheds a ton in patches. I handpluck him, and during high molt times, it can last up to 45 minutes…[Read more]

imogh started the topic Grooming Cashmere Rabbit in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 10 months ago
Hello,
Three months ago I adopted a mini cashmere rabbit. At first, she was perfectly fine with being groomed, but as she lost her baby fur and her adult fur has grown in she has seemed to dislike her grooming sessions more and more. She has never bitten or scratched me during these sessions but she seems to start shaking and grinding her teeth…[Read more]

Okay so we’re going to start fostering him soon! The rescue is actually foster based so he’s been in foster homes his whole life (he was born into the rescue). Poor guys still hasn’t been adopted, likely because the rescue is quite small and had 2 other litters around the same time, which means there was a lot of baby buns. Here are some pics…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic Bunnies and Younger Children in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 5 years, 10 months ago
I think the most important thing is to teach them not to chase or grab him. At that age (boys especially, depending on the boys…) they might have a hard time accepting that Buddy may not want to be near them or accept pets.
I think it best would be have them sit down in his exercise area and hand-feed some veggies (long stems if he ever nips on…[Read more]
