Welcome to the forums! Thank you for rescuing these rabbits!

You are correct, in order for them to be bonded, they should be de-sexed. Males are as a rule cheaper to neuter than females, so you could perhaps start with the male/s, if you have male/s. Keep in mind though that a male bun can have viable sperm for up to 4-5 weeks, so its not safe to…[Read more]

I guess that makes sense. Thanks for responding!

When people say to use pellets that don’t have “junk” in them, they are referring to the pellet mixes that have pellets combined with colored cereal pieces, whole seeds, dried fruit, etc. Oxbow Garden Select does not contain this “junk”. You will only find pellets in the bag. The pellets are made primarily of grass hay, but there are other…[Read more]

Are they cecotropes?

I’m slightly concerned about him again. I cleaned out his litter box this morning and all of his poop looked perfect, but this afternoon I found a bunch of wet, dark, and mushy poop in his litter box. He is acting fine and eating normally, but I’m worried that he could have been exposed to some of the antibiotics that I’m giving my cat (Clav…[Read more]

I have a “rabbit vacuum” and a “regular vacuum”. Yes, hay can clog up the vacuum. Hence why it’s not a bad idea to keep them separate. A cheap shopvac works great.

Something just occurred to me. I’m wondering if they are discontinuing because there isn’t a consistent source of recycled newspapers anymore? I mean, most people do not get newspapers anymore. It’s sad because I used Yesterday’s News for many years too.

There have been no documented cases of natural infections. They proved in a lab setting that it was technically possible for the virus to replicate in the sinuses of a rabbit, but the rabbits in the experiment did not exhibit any symptoms. If COVID was a real concern with pet rabbits, then I think we would have heard something by now. We would…[Read more]

Yes. It’s just hay/fur/and poop (that gets stuck to their feet). He keeps changing his explanation but he mostly says that the hay will hurt the washer.

I asked him but he still threw it away. D:> He told me “no matter what you do the hay will stick and ruin our washer.”

Hoppy Gotcha-Day, Apollo and Luna!

Unsure of all the litters offered by SPS, but SPS has a pine pellet litter as well that, in my experience, is identical to the Tractor Supply Co pine pellet litter many people use. SPS’ version is more expensive and seems to more reliably not smell like wood (i.e., scentless).

Adora-babies! It’s just so cute seeing them together like that. Your face must ache from smiling so much. 😉

Hallelujah for one habitat shared time out.

Is it just hay/fur/poop on the blankets or are they peeing on them? Just curious as to why your Dad is throwing them away. He doesn’t want all that to go in the wash? (I can understand that and use an old washing machine for my pet towels and blankets)

I’ve come to like fleece blankets that have a more “velvet” like look to them. They are still t…[Read more]
