Thank you! That’s a picture of my old New Zealand White named Mr. Bunny. He was a very good boy.

Average rabbit lifespan is around 8-12 years. Spaying is very important for the females, since it prevents ovarian and uterine cancer – which affects a large amount of rabbits, especially if they never bear a litter. Neutering is more of a behavioral…[Read more]

Also I think your rabbit picture is cute @FluffyBunny

To answer that question I have 1 more question. How long do New Zealand rabbits live with the spay/neuter surgery?

Based on my experiences with the HRS in Colorado (volunteer for 5 years), it was common to have older rabbits at the shelter. There were occasionally rescue cases where young strays, etc. had a litter, but most of the rabbits the shelter took in were former pet rabbits who were already 2-3 years old.

Is this your first rabbit? If so, you might…[Read more]

Thank you so much for your detailed reply. I wish he would eat alfalfa hay. He only nibbles softest part of it. I will definitely try oat hay ( he is crazy about oats, which he has 1 teaspoon once a week) and hay troopers next.

Thank you for your reply. I will give him approximately 1/3 of cup of Oxbow young rabbits pellets in the morning and in the evening ( he is always hungry for it). He will eat some greens or 2-3 small pieces of green vegetables at lunch. He is very active and playful, but I am still worried

Since he is young still, alfalfs is appropriate for him. Young buns need the extra protein and calcium and will by instinct go for the richest food available.

Things you can try ito get him to eat more grass are: Change type of hay. There are many types of hay. Its not just Timothy that is appropriate for bunnies. Any grass hay that horses can…[Read more]

Can you provide some information on the daily feeding schedule he expects? So what time(s) you feed him, the quantity of the foods, etc.

It is not unusual for a rabbit to not eat “enough” hay — there are some rabbits who are hay monsters and need no help with their hay appetite, but a good number do need a bit of encouragement. Hay, for many…[Read more]

A wonderful vantage point for Louie! Rabbits often like to rest on elevated spots!

Last week Louie started peeing on my bed, so I had to leave him in the xpen when I wasn’t around to watch him, but he learned how to jump out of his xpen onto the window sill. I moved his xpen away from the window, and put a sheet over half of the top so he would have a cool place to chill out, since he can’t free roam the whole room to cool off…[Read more]

@Louiethebunny Ok, thank you for the help!
