@Hazel Tans are so beautiful! My Moose was a Satin and he was soooo handsome, and kind of reminded me of a Tan. Tanlover seemed to disappear from the internet at some point. I was in communication with her a few years ago via facebook but then at some point her blog disappeared and she stopped responding to me. So I have no idea. :-/

Awww this is wonderful!

I’m not crying, you’re crying! <3

Just one hole. Could you give her a couple of soft little rectangular beds? Many pet beds are washable!

That’s great, good luck!

FYI I just edited to remove the swear word.

Most important is to trust your gut. Other signs they are bonded are: sharing food (like, they can yank it out of each other’s mouths), sharing litter box, snuggling, grooming each other, and generally being in each other’s personal space without incident.

Signs they need more work: fast chasing, fur…[Read more]

It’s entirely possible that they’re just playing! I’m just warning caution and to keep an eye and ear out because aggression can happen for a while after bonding while they’re still finalizing their dominance hierarchy.

@DanaNM hit all the points very well, haha.

I will just highlight the cucumber removal. I know one of my rabbits was given it once and immediately had a pretty abnormal poop and gas build up, so even if you find veggies are “rabbit-safe” online, there are variations in the tolerance within rabbits. When noticing cyclical or regular digestive…[Read more]

How is she doing now?

This might not be relevant anymore since I’m guessing you were able to call the vet, but which medications did she give you? Typically pain meds are once a day (but some vets will do twice a day), and motility meds are more frequent.

One of my rabbits is probably one of the most avid chewers, so there probably won’t be too much issue with chewing carpet tiles. They are low-pile carpet squares (the carpet fibers are really shallow, so hard to chew on), so the main thing is just edges not being secured down tightly. Per unit, the carpet squares are the most expensive thing for…[Read more]

Gotcha, that sounds like a much better amount of pellets!

Oh my goodness!! So wonderful to hear about his life with you 🙂 such a great check-in to read about. Thank you so much for your dedication to Happy!!

I watched a video of a girl successfully bonding 5 rabbits as it changed the dynamics when there are more girls/boys https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y06Lz6RDy8M of course all bonds are different! Keep us updated
P.S. I want that fluffy boy that keeps getting bullied omg he is ADORABLE!

so cute! my girl unfortunately will piss on that and then some. I can’t give her anything nice even though I want to give her soft flooring for her disabled legs 🙁

are there 2 holes?

When will I know that they are safely bonded 100% I cannot keep an eye on them 24/7 forever.

None of them ever showed any aggression traits, she lunges at me if I was trying to grab her from under the couch but she has never bit me hurtfully ever?? she will just graze her teeth at me as a warning.
The boy doesn’t do anything, not even the lunge…[Read more]

Thanks so much to both of you! The photos are great inspo and gave me some ideas!

@Wick, do you use carpet squares inside your condo to make the floor more comfy and stable? I am trying to think of a cost-effective, yet still safe, way to cover the grids on the upper level(s). Leo isn’t a huge chewer, but I would have to consider that as well of…[Read more]

I agree with @Louiethebunny.   Hormones will still be floating around after the first few weeks after spay/neuter. Most (if not all) rabbits become more mellow after spay/neuter. Those activities that you described that your bunny did before the neuter, sound like relaxed activities, so he might still do them. My buns who were spayed about a m…[Read more]
