Yes that’s right. And it’s the only one – she pretty much free roams in the room, so I don’t have one in her cage.

Happyjeans replied to the topic How to prevent the litter box from messing up the whole house? Looking for recs in the forum HABITATS AND TOYS 6 years, 2 months ago
This is a slightly different variation to the answers you’re received but ultimately I don’t think any set up will result in a mess free house. My recommendation? A cordless Dyson, mounted on the wall right by where the bunny lives. If its a large amount of hay, or really thick hay I’ll use a dustpan and brush but you wouldn’t believe what this…[Read more]

Happyjeans replied to the topic bunny proofing wires– need ideas in the forum HABITATS AND TOYS 6 years, 2 months ago
Getting the cables up high with hooks is a good idea. I also used to run an extension cable from the plug and velcoed it up higher to the backs/undersides of things like my side table, meaning only one cable needed to run at a chewable height. Now, conveniently I’m in a wheelchair accessible flat where all my plugs are at waist height, but unless…[Read more]

poopscoop12 replied to the topic Odor management in litter box in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 2 months ago
Pour baking soda into a bowl and leave it in the room to absorb the smell in the room, and open the windows. I found that helped getting rid of the stench. I use a pack every 2 months.
I found the grate (plastic) made my bun dirtier (just didn’t work for me) coz she doesn’t eat alot of her cecotropes, so I’d pick them up if I see them in the…[Read more]

Is his room very quiet normally? I wonder if there is a new strange sound outside that you can’t hear?
If his room is super quiet normally, I wonder if it might help to have some ambient noise in there so other sounds aren’t so startling? Like maybe a radio on quietly or something? I know people will do that for their birds and dogs when they…[Read more]

Oh so this is her pooping next to a box you have out in the room?
Is it the one from her cage or a second one?

@jerseygirl I was just sitting in my office chair and reached my arm over! I have my “desk” set up right next to her pen. And yes I love her little white paw!
@talesofTybalt lol yes Bun Jovi doesn’t seem to mind (aside from getting humped)… he seems to really like Bonnie and always lays near her pen (he loves the ladies lol), but it’s Myra…[Read more]

Happyjeans replied to the topic What bedding should I get my rabbit He has a very delicate lungs and I'm in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 2 months ago
My rabbit had repeated problems with respiratory infections when he was a baby, the only thing that solved it was a newspaper based pellet that had no additional chemicals in it – literally just 100% compressed newspaper. It’s probably the most expensive litter but it traps smells well so you don’t need a very deep layer in the bottom of the…[Read more]

That all sounds great! Congrats!
If you notice they start to seem more distant don’t be afraid to restrict their space a bit (such as to one room or a pen).

@jerseygirl, whoops, thanks for the heads-up. I knew that we weren’t allowed to discuss that but I didn’t realize we aren’t supposed to mention it at all. Will keep in mind.
Yes, she has hay outside of the litter box – she has a feeder in her cage, so there’s at least five feet between where she eats and where she defecates. And I’ve been using…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic Bonding Help please – disabled rabbit in the forum BONDING 6 years, 2 months ago
Sometimes boys will groom in preparation to mount. Typically the one mounting is the dominant one… but it does sound like it’s still hormonal (or maybe even an incomplete neuter?) which would make it less clear. A request for grooming is a dominant move, usually the submissive rabbit will groom first. That said, in many pairs it’s hard to tell…[Read more]

jerseygirl replied to the topic Stinky Poop in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 2 months ago
They definitely can still produce territorial or marking poops at this age and since they are newly neutered. What you’re describing certainly sounds like those poops. I think it has a bit of a onion & corn chip smell, other people describe it to be like body odour.
The substance comes from a gland inside the rectum – a true anal gland. The ot…[Read more]

That’s hilarious! Glad it worked out.
I wonder if he is split, it just isn’t an extreme case. This would make him look more girl-like down there, but at the same time his genital area would not be obviously abnormal.
