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.😁

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.

Yeah definitely! I’ll definitely talk about that.

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.😂

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.

Hi DanaNM!

I will have to keep an eye out on whether or not her tail is up, but her ears are often pinned back. This has been pretty constant; however, I got them spayed very shortly after I adopted them so I am not sure if this was happening before they were spayed or not.

Thank you, Louie is only about three pounds, and may reach up to six, (he’s a Havana). I’ll keep him on younger food for a bit longer, and will probably start transitioning to adult food in a few months.

Hmm, I would actually recommend looking at Petfinder at shelters near your hometown if you’re ok getting your hopes up a bit. I looked at many rabbits near me even before my parents allowed me to look into adopting one. If you find one that catches your eye, you could look into that shelter and see what their policies and adoption procedures are.…[Read more]

Aww! Little snoots!

Longhairmike – Who are you calling obsolete? 😯

Seriously though, I think some people still prefer the forum format. There’s just something special about this place. It does feel like home. 🙂

MimzMum – OMG, tell me about it! There is so much catching up to do. I’m so glad to see so many members returning.

Yep, I’ve never had to use anything higher than one of those tension baby gates. I can easily step over it. Some bunnies just aren’t that motivated. And if they aren’t motivated, they aren’t going to bother.

It depends on the breed too. Obviously, a small bunny is going to stop growing at a younger age and can be transitioned to adult food sooner. A giant breed, on the other hand, will stop growing at a relatively older age. The young rabbit pellets are formulated for growth. Does it hurt to transition them sooner rather than later? Not really. I…[Read more]

How old is he? And how long has he been neutered? Sorry, I must have missed your other thread.

aww! I wish I could convince my parents as easily as that! see are actually near a bunch of shelters right now because we are visiting family. I haven’t talked to them about it yet…😬

My mom is an animal lover, but after years of begging for pets she never gave in. I was at the pet store with her buying fish supplies, (we have an aquarium), and I noticed the bunnies. I never gave any thought to it, but during quarantine I stumbled upon several videos and fell in LOVE with rabbits. I did extensive research and looked into…[Read more]
