@LBJ10 Thank you! I’ll check if they have them at the pet store here and see if they work better on the buns. 🙂

@Bu20055 I get that. ): People need to do lots of research online before getting a pet… And never listen to the workers… lol

@Moonlightbunnybunny66

I know! It bothers me so much! Small animal doesn’t equal small space! It’s an issue with all small animals, which is so sad. I’m definitely glad Pepper’s my little man instead of a toy for a child in a critter trail. Gosh! The thought of the mistreatment they go through makes me want to take them all!

@Breakie

I am so very sorry for your situation. 🙁 I have wished more than one time that rabbits would just get along and not have to do the bonding process, but alas it must be. One positive effect of bonding though is your not just bonding the bunnies to each other, you are also bonding them to you too, so you and them can develop a very good…[Read more]

@Bu20055 Yikes. She was probably being defensive since she doesn’t know the proper care. I wish pet stores knew better and would train the employees to give people better advice. Even though hamsters are small, it doesn’t mean they deserve a tiny cage to sit and be bored in! Your hamster should be glad it has you and not that worker. 🙂

@LBJ10 Thank you so much. Good information! Yeah, then I don’t know why she would recommend feeding them yogurt when there’s probiotics that are better for them. I don’t even have my bunnies yet and didn’t ask for information from her. 😬 I guess she was trying to help but ended up giving bad advice. I don’t believe the papaya is necessary…[Read more]

Wow. The stuff the pet store people tell you.
I was once in the store comparing prices on bedding for my hammy and I bought three bags (enough to fill his 75 gallon with half a bag left). The person checking me out laughed and made a joke about stocking for the apocalypse. I told her that it’d be gone in mere months. She was utterly confused and a…[Read more]

Thank you so much, everyone.  I am taking your good advice to heart and am going to wait.  It seems the risk is too high that hormones will get everything off on the wrong foot and/or that any bonding work will be for naught once the second bun gets neutered.

I wanted them bonded before I go because I can get help here from an experienced r…[Read more]

@DanaNM Thank you! It says 100% pine so it should be fine. 🙂

I picked up some Orchard hay and she’s been snacking on it all day, I’m so glad she’s finally eating hay 🙂 I’ll have to try the oat hay here too

@DanaNM Oh no 😧 I know what you mean. I used to have one when I had guinea pigs a long time ago. I probably won’t be buying that again then. I should probably try googling stuff more but I wish they would just list the materials on the packaging…

Gosh, I’ve gotten carried away these past several days and haven’t been checking the forum.

Dana- Thanks! I’ve seen those posts before but I’ve completely forgotten about it.

Hazel- Yeah. I might have found a source of hay but I’m still waiting for the seller to get back to me. If it doesn’t work out I’ll check out some of the feed stores n…[Read more]

I tend to buy most toys online, so I end up just reading the reviews to make sure no one had any problems with it. And when i’m buying stuff in person I end up googling on my phone…. haha.

Some toys are OK to give if supervised but prob best not to give unsupervised. For example there are these wire balls that you can use to stuff hay or…[Read more]

@Thorbunny OMG I love those towels!  SO CUTE!

@HipHopBunny looks to be going well!

@ThorBunny I absolutely LOVE those towels! 😀 They are so beautiful! And Happy Belated Birthday! 🙂

Here are the pics from today’s bonding:

I think either of those options sound fine. 🙂 Could alternate what you try maybe?

It might not be the most attractive set up, but I wonder if you could make a cube grid barrier between the crate top and the desk to block access? Mine won’t really hope over just 1 grid, so that could work. You could scooch the blanket over and then attach them to the top of the crate.

LOL cube grids seem to be my solution to all bunny-proofing…[Read more]

My bunnies love the oat hay from the BB store. 🙂 So I would imagine the timothy is also great (there are probably some reviews for it too). You might try getting timothy and one other variety to see if she likes another type better.

That looks fine to me, it’s a bit hard to see the photo but as long as it’s pine pellets with no additives you should be good to go.

And storing in the garage is totally fine as long as it’s kept dry and not exposed to any weird chemicals that also might be stored in the garage (such as pesticides).
