Thanks guys!
Bam, I get mine from the dollar store! Pinky likes to make holes in them… Muffin rarely digs anymore, doesn’t chew it like Pinky lol. I still try to cover the areas where Pinky destroys it, or I’d be left with no blankets!

What Dana said. Clean everything very well, and only put one new item into the pen at a time. When they’re good with that, move on to the next item.

Wick & Fable replied to the topic Odd bunny poop? in the forum DIET & CARE 5 years, 11 months ago
It looks like string or fur sticking out, which isn’t uncommon. Is your rabbit currently molting? Typically they end up ingesting more fur than usual during a molt, leading to fur coming out in poop, such as “string of pearl” poops.
While gross to consider, you can crack open a poop in a tissue or something and it is usually clear if it’s fur,…[Read more]

Hi! New bunny owner here. Should I be concerned about this poop (see photo!)? A majority is normal, small round poops, but I would say 15-20% of the poops are small round balls with a little “tail.” There are also maybe 5 oval shaped ones. I’ve had the bunny about 2 weeks, and the only change is bedding yesterday. I have not seen this poop prior to today. -

I don’t have any personal experience, because I’m very allergic to cats, but I know we have several members who have cats and rabbits in the same household. I hope you’ll soon get more answers from people with actual practical experience with such constellations!

Hi there, it would help if you fill out the “bonding template” pinned in this section. If you copy and paste it into your reply we can get a bit more background on your process so far to give better feedback. 🙂
That said, it’s best to use a brand new litter box when introducing it to them, or one that has been cleaned VERY well. Same goes for…[Read more]

My rabbit and his bonding female rabbit are off to a good start. The female has been establishing her dominance. Both groom each other and seem happy during their bonding session in an EMPTY nuetral pen.
As next steps, I added a litter box that had been used by both of them, a hay bin, water bowl, tunnel, and toys in the neutral pen. The dominant…[Read more]

prince dorian the bun replied to the topic Dorian finally learned no!! So proud! in the forum THE LOUNGE 5 years, 11 months ago
@LBJ10 – well I am used to cats, so that will work for me! Though he did stop and then went and did his crazy digging in his box where he is allowed to. It gives me hope one day he’ll figure out that when I say Dorian I am not just announcing his majesty to all who are present but would like him to come. Even with a treat he just stares at me…[Read more]

That definitely looks like a release of energy, sort of like a half binky.

vkvkvvk replied to the topic My rabbit shakes after pee in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 11 months ago
Hi thanks for the reply , I am not very sure if it’s like a binky. She is 8 years old and seldom does a binky anymore.
It has never happened during urinating. She has been neutered though.
I managed to upload a video of her doing it: https://youtu.be/WV2xo2mRAcc

LBJ10 replied to the topic ❗Extremely serious question about bunny behavior❗ in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 11 months ago
Domesticated rabbits typically don’t see humans as a predator, especially ones that are accustomed to living inside a house. They will communicate (or attempt to communicate) with you like they would with another rabbit. I’m sure they know humans aren’t actually rabbits, but they interact with humans as though they are peers (rather than…[Read more]

See, they can learn the word “no”. They won’t always listen, but they can definitely learn what it means.

Thank you. I called more vets today, found one an hour and a half away that may take Muffin (waiting for a response). The one closer was taking appointments for late October. :/

DanaNM replied to the topic Bonding process and next steps in the forum BONDING 5 years, 11 months ago
Some bonded pairs will mount as well, so as long as the humping doesn’t lead to a scufffle it’s OK (but you will want to see the chasing die down). And sometimes the might go through the chase-hump thing whenever you move them to a new area or increase the space, and then will die down again.

DanaNM replied to the topic ❗Extremely serious question about bunny behavior❗ in the forum BEHAVIOR 5 years, 11 months ago
When rabbits communicate with each other, getting right in the other rabbit’s face is seen as threatening, so that would explain why your rabbit is getting defensive towards her.

Ok, that is pretty much what I’ve been doing they are with me all day in the office 8:30-12 then 1-6 and they go in their cages for their own cages until it’s play time. They have been sharing everything so I was shocked there was humping in the non neutral home. We went back to the office today with the increased space. Some chasing and hum…[Read more]
