Louiethebunny started the topic how soon should I take my rabbit to the vet? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
I adopted my bunny two weeks ago from a shelter. He is five months old, and I was wondering when I should take him in for a vet check-up. He was previously in a foster home so I’m sure he was sufficiently cared for. He is already neutered and microchipped, but I’m just wondering how soon I should bring him in for a vet check?

Louiethebunny started the topic bad eyesight? in the forum BEHAVIOR 6 years, 4 months ago
My bunny Louie is recently adopted and I’ve heard lots of stories about rabbits losing their eyesight. Louie is only five months old so I’m not sure if it’s likely, but I read that signs of bad eyesight are not reacting to things in sight or flinching when approached closely and things like that. Since he is so young it could just be him being a…[Read more]

Thank you for your condolences.
My best friend in the entire world passed yesterday and I am not doing well.
Tommy is absolutely gorgeous! I want so badly to get a second bunny but I lost both of my jobs due to the current events and am definitely not in a financial position to do so. But I’m also not sure Joey would accept a new bun she is…[Read more]

Silver labs are unfortunately a huge hot topic in the labrador world. She’s been called some pretty nasty things by certain lab owners. I choose to ignore it because she is the best girl and I am so so happy her breeder chose her for me.

uneliste replied to the topic Bonded rabbits chasing – is it aggressive? in the forum BEHAVIOR 6 years, 4 months ago
EDIT (sorry I’m new to this so I’m unsure if we are able to edit posts):
My apologies! It seems that the positioning of her ears depends! Sometimes, Kiwi will run away extremely quickly even though Anjou is chasing her with her ears forward. In this case, Anjou’s tail is also in normal position, of course.

Louiethebunny started the topic Vacuuming and other cleaning in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
As everyone knows, rabbits can be pretty messy with hay and twigs everywhere. I want to vacuum around my rabbit to clean up every once in awhile, but I know the sound is very loud and frightening. I don’t want to risk Louie going into shock because of the vacuum. Is that a possibility? if so, should I vacuum around him for very short periods of…[Read more]

Louiethebunny replied to the topic how did you convince your parents to get a bun? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
Hmm, if they’re really against the idea, it might be hard to get them to change their minds.
My mom was actually very convinced by the fact that we are social distancing and in quarantine. She figured it is a good time to adopt if able because the extra time home is good to bond with a new rabbit so he or she is more used to you by the time they…[Read more]

LBJ10 replied to the topic Humping help! in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
Hmm… well, he’s way past having leftover hormones post-neuter. This is interesting. But what you’re describing definitely sounds like he is “finishing”. Did this only happen once? If it was a one-time thing, then he could have just tripped. I guess if you see it happen again, then you might want to explore this further.

Hi,
I’ve only just seen this reply. I should have pointed out that they don’t just have a hutch, they have free roam of my bedroom 24/7 as well as the hutch as a safe place. Sorry that’s my mistake. As for health issues, they recently went to the vets for their yearly vaccines and the vet gave them a health check. Both have a clean bill of healt…[Read more]

Thank you! I’m always scared to ask my parents about getting stuff like even apps on my phone.😂

you sound ready! good luck pitching the idea to your parents!

Definitely! I did plan on doing the DIY storage box hay box until I have enough money for a wooden one that maybe my dad could help me build. Victoria Raechel on YouTube has two like this for her bunnies, Cleo and Lola, which she made herself.

Louiethebunny replied to the topic Convincing Parents in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
you sound super prepared! When you pitch the idea to your parents I would offer as much information and details as you can. For example, “I would like to keep my rabbit(s) in a pen in my room and give them (x) amount of time to run around. I’d keep their hay in a big bin to keep the mess at a minimum.”

Louiethebunny replied to the topic Bunny is peeing everywhere after having another bunny friend in the forum BEHAVIOR 6 years, 4 months ago
My bunny’s foster owner claimed he would pee out of his box, but once I took him home I didn’t notice any problem. her litter box was very small, mine is for a large cat. I would make sure your litter box is large enough. Since peeing is a territorial behavior, make sure when you wipe up his accidents you place the used paper towel in his litter…[Read more]

michaela replied to the topic Convincing Parents in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
Yep! Me too! I found all the stuff online already. Even the hay, I found an add in Craigslist for Timothy Hay, $9 a bale, $8.50 if you purchase 5 or more. This is the only one I found without a minimum order quantity. I even have back ups like Small Pet Select, but it’s more expensive.😁

Louiethebunny replied to the topic Convincing Parents in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 6 years, 4 months ago
That’s great, doing research ahead of time helps a lot. I also found most of the products I would need to start out online so my mother would know I was prepared ahead of time.

There is only one shelter who has cats, dogs, and sometimes small pets in my hometown. Only about 45 minutes- 2 hours aways there are a lot more shelters with bunnies. I look on Petfinder a lot and have at least 3 email alerts for bunnies.😂

Louiethebunny replied to the topic Bulk Veggies in the forum DIET & CARE 6 years, 4 months ago
I have a plot in a community garden, and I grow my own lettuce and herbs. Once the plants get started you can harvest new leaves every few days. This is great in the summer when the plants thrive, but in the winter buying from the store makes more sense.
