I wouldn’t do it — that’s very cold and would be a very rapid change in temperature from indoors to outdoors of a drastic degree.

I wouldn’t be concerned about slower consumption/less enthusiasm around pellets for reasons Dana mentioned too. It is unlikely a teeth issue since hay is the most teeth-intensive/involved thing to eat, but I’m sure exceptions exist is dental discomfort presentations.

Really lovely that you want to have your buns as house bunnies!
I just wanted to second what DanaNM has said. I don’t think there is necessarily any need to wait, as long as you make sure your house stays generally cool it should be fine.
When I adopted my newest bunny she had been outside for 4 years of her life and outside in the shelter, I…[Read more]

My dad is taking me to petsmart today since the bunnies got a gift card for christmas there. I want to take the bunnies there because Cinnimon loves to go places. It is 3 degrees in ferniheit though, sunny at least. there would be a blanket over their carrier for the time they are outside. But I don’t know if it would be too cold.

GlennTheLionhead replied to the topic Possible visually impaired rabbit? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 4 years, 7 months ago
Hey!
Your pair sounds very similar to mine.
I recently adopted a partially sighted bun, her eyes look completely normal so I think it depends on the type of blindness. Is Leo white by any chance? White bunnies are more susceptible to vision problems due to the way their eyes take in the light.
His behaviour could be the behaviour of a very shy…[Read more]

Oh Azerane, this is awful. Fingers so very crossed she’ll recover! I’m so glad your vet could fit her in sooner. Poor Apollo too. ❤❤❤

He’s a lucky bun to have found a dedicated owner! Thank you for rescuing him!

OMG that is terrifying! I’m so sorry 🙁
Poor Luna, what a little fighter she is. Sending so many vibes for her and you that she continues to improve.

I think it is really wonderful that you will be able to move your bunnies inside! It is generally healthiest for rabbits to be inside, so I don’t see it as selfish at all, as long as they will still get plenty of exercise inside.
The main issues with switching temps occur when it is done regularly, because going back and forth between temps is…[Read more]

Hello! Not sure if this is the right place to post so hope this is okay 🙂
I have 2 minilop bunnies, male and female who are almost 4 years old. When I got them, I was living with my parents and they were adamant the rabbits could not live inside – they said ‘my house my rules’ kind of thing. Anyway, my bunnies live in a hutch outside – it’s…[Read more]

DanaNM replied to the topic My rabbit is eating more hay than he eats pellets in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 4 years, 7 months ago
That is a bit unusual! Eating hay is healthy for him, so I think this is probably a positive change as long as he is eating plenty of hay and his poops look healthy and he does eventually eat both. How much pellets does he get per day?
It could be that he’s just a bit tired of his pellets, or that the bag is a bit stale. Sometimes a change in…[Read more]

@DanaNM Thank you! Yeah, I figured the closer ones may have to just grow out a bit to get them loose. His fur is going to be a project, but he is such a sweet bun. I can’t wait to spoil him! 🙂

Happy new year!
I really want to try and get my art business off the ground this year. I love my job but it’s destroying my body with how physically taxing it is.
Apollo is doing well but Luna is very unwell, we nearly lost her this week and still could, but she is showing improvement. Made a post about it in the House Rabbit Q and A section.

My rabbit’s 4 years old and I’ve started to notice something recently about his eating habits.
He would usually munch on his pellets a lot than he would munch on his hay. However, nowadays he does not consume his pellets as much and prefers to eat his hay more.
Is this something I should be concerned about? I’ve observed him for a few days to se…[Read more]

It’s been a very scary week here. Luna became very unwell very suddenly and it was a struggle to get her the care she needed. I’ve surmised the week below leading to where we are today.
-Tuesday night, refused pellets, painful, very small poops (last poops), would eat hand fed grass or sometimes hay.
-Wednesday morning I rang and made an…[Read more]

Chii replied to the topic HELP! Older neutered rabbit started mounting and marking in the forum BEHAVIOR 4 years, 7 months ago
Just wanted to post an update.
I reached to my vet, and she also said it sounds like adrenal issue. She is going to take a blood test for the hormones this Sunday, and then see if levels are elevated. She said it can be treated surgically (by removing adrenal gland, but only 1 side can be removed, other is too close to some major vein) or by…[Read more] - Load More
