Lops4Life! replied to the topic How to Litter train Rabbits? in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
Hey! Just an update for you!
So I put it in this morning and put a few of their poops in there..it worked really well! Yes, there are some stray poops still but what do you expect! 😂 Thanks Hazel :)) -
Lops4Life! replied to the topic how soon should I take my rabbit to the vet? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
Hey!
Has your bunny been to the vets before? Do you have any concerns? I suggest if you have no concerns with your bun that you don’t necessarily need to take a visit to the vets, unless they haven’t had their annual jabs that they need. Hope this helps 🙂 -
Lops4Life! started the topic How often do you groom your rabbits? in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
Hey! 🙂
My rabbits have very healthy coats and rarely ever get knots. I usually pull out their moulting fur gently and (sometimes) groom their fur. How often should I be doing this and what are the benefits? -

Hazel replied to the topic my rabbit is acting weird in the forum BEHAVIOR 6 years, 4 months ago
Vets will take emergency cases. This is an emergency, please take him immediately! Because they’re prey animals, rabbits will hide illness for as long as they are able. If he’s this bad, it’s highly likely he won’t survive without vet care.

Bam replied to the topic What type of bed? in the forum BEHAVIOR 6 years, 4 months ago
I have an IKEA bed for my bun. I put a piece of vet bed on it instead of the little blanket and comforter it came with.
The problem with beds for bunnies is that the bun pees in or chews it, or both. Some buns can have a bed when they are a little older, some buns can never have a bed without ruining it completely. In nature, rabbits dont line…[Read more]

Thanks! I will try a high sided litterbox today and put some hay in there…fingers crossed they might go in there 🤞🤞

DanaNM started the topic Ticklish ears?? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
I haven’t formally introduced her yet, but we adopted Myra about 3 months ago. She is just starting to seem like she enjoys pets. 🙂 I’ll have to make a post about her soon.
But I’ve noticed she has very ticklish ears! At least I think that’s what’s going on? She likes nose rubs, but she will flinch if I touch her cheeks too quickly (slow is…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic Bunny is peeing everywhere after having another bunny friend in the forum BEHAVIOR 6 years, 4 months ago
I see! The dividing might have confused them a bit. Yes I think 3 months is still pretty new.
I won’t repeat my suggestions above as they still apply but let us know if those things help. 🙂
Last thought, what are you using to clean up the pee? Vinegar can be good, but I had one bun that kept remarking carpet that I cleaned with vinegar. I…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic Sherwood Pet Health recommends no greens – thoughts? in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
Agree with LBJ10, there is a range of green-feeding that works for different bunnies. I like to feed greens for variety, enrichment, and hydration. Plus the bunnies just love them so much. 🙂 I don’t really trust any pet food company (even the good ones) to be able to 100% address every single nutrition requirement animals have (like, what is the…[Read more]

Louiethebunny replied to the topic New 2 Month Bunny, Sneezes in the forum BEHAVIOR 6 years, 4 months ago
I would keep an eye out, but “honking” can sometimes be a sign of annoyance. She could just be a little frustrated in her new home, but I can’t hear for myself so I can’t be positive.

Isabelle V replied to the topic My bunny keeps nipping me?? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
My family has a hunch that that could be the cause! She gained a lot of weight pretty quickly. I guess we will just have to wait and see!

Louiethebunny started the topic What type of bed? in the forum BEHAVIOR 6 years, 4 months ago
My little bun IS litter trained and thinks any box with any material inside is a litter box. I want to buy him a nice bed to lay in but I’m worried he’ll soil it. What kinds of bed do you like for your bunnies?

LBJ10 replied to the topic Sherwood Pet Health recommends no greens – thoughts? in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
Sherwood pellets contain both timothy hay and alfalfa. The company’s logic behind their diet recommendations can be found on their website: http://sherwoodpethealth.com/the-science/
Their approach is simply a different way of achieving the same goal all bunny-owners (should) have – increase hay consumption. There is certainly nothing wrong with…[Read more]

LBJ10 replied to the topic Rabbit mites- HELP! in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
I wouldn’t use any kind of oil. Certain oils aren’t good for them if they lick it off. It doesn’t get rid of a mite infestation, it just makes it look a little better temporarily… except bunny’s fur is all greasy. Then the mites return once you stop putting the oil on. It’s better to treat with Revolution or Advantage and then you’re done with…[Read more]

LBJ10 replied to the topic Seeing Cecotropes in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
Glad to hear it! Given his age and the absence of other symptoms, I’m going to say it was likely stress-induced. Nothing to worry about, especially if you’ve observed him eating them since the incident.

LBJ10 replied to the topic Dwarf lop or mini lop? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
I’m still going with UK mini lop because that is what a lion lop is supposed to be. Based on his weight and his appearance (face shape, etc.), I’m going to say false dwarf.
