DanaNM replied to the topic Bonding 4 bunnies in the forum BONDING 4 years, 9 months ago
So, I don’t have a quad, but I do have a failed one (now two pairs LOL). My experience was I had a M-F pair, then I tried to add a third (F) for a trio, and the girls just weren’t getting a long. I decided to pause and do more pre-bonding/ reassess. Then I fell in love with this other bun, so I decided I would try for a quad, and if that didn’t…[Read more]

If the mounting isn’t leading to fighting, then I would just let it happen. It can be hard to know what they are thinking, but they are communicating in their own way. Bunnies vary in how much they mount each other, and even bonded pairs will do some mounting.

DanaNM replied to the topic Would my dog get along with a rabbit? in the forum HOUSE RABBIT Q & A 4 years, 9 months ago
I think the fact that your dog did very well with your cat is a promising sign. Do you know how strong your dog’s drive is towards small mammals? Like does she react strongly to squirrels or wild rabbits? When she is fixated on something, does she respond to you? Does she know the “leave it” command? Typically the dog’s prey drive and training are…[Read more]

Cats are different than dogs though and most the time are fine with rabbits.

The breed of the dog doesn’t necessarily matter. What matters is personality and prey drive. You also need a bunny who has a strong personality and isn’t terrified at the sight of a dog.
My first bunny Bandit was a dwarf hotot mix about 2lbs. Sometimes we needed to take care of my grandmother’s beagle Sassy, (definitely a hunting breed) for a wee…[Read more]

I cannot imagine lint-rolling to try and get enough fur off during a molt… observe the Fall molt:

Please see here for information on introducing dogs and rabbits: https://wabbitwiki.com/wiki/Relationships_with_rabbits#Dogs
It must be done with the utmost security measures, and if there is any indication that your dog will not interact well with your rabbit (or vice versa; rabbits can be the aggressor too), you must keep both animals separated…[Read more] -

I would not introduce your dog to a bunny. A hunting dog especially, animals are unpredictable and you wouldn’t want anything to happen. That being said I don’t think you couldn’t get a bunny. You would just need to make sure that they will not be able to have access to each other and it would be best if they couldn’t see each other. Rabbit…[Read more]

Hi everyone.Not new to rabbits but semi-new to bonding. I have had a brother/sister pair of Mini Rex that are almost 9 1/2 years old since they were very small babies. We recently adopted two youngsters – a 7 1/2 month old Harlequin girl, and a 5 month old Harlequin boy. All are spayed and neutered – the youngsters are 4 weeks post-op.… -

Recently, I’ve been doing a bit of research on caring for rabbits. Overall, other than having divorced parents (I would use a pet carrier and find an adult rabbit who is used to traveling), there is one major issue. My dog. I’m extremely unsure whether even having a rabbit in the house would be a good idea. You see, she’s a purebred hunting dog…[Read more]

Did a session for a couple hours but Casper after a couple hours started buzzing, circling and mounting Pumpkin like a mating dance. What’s going on?

Thank you for this very detailed report. It must look horrible, but its for good reasons. You have the best vets. Rabbits as a species are “primitive” in that their first line of defense is to wall off infections, i e form abscesses. Their pus is thick and wont drain through a tube, which is why the wound isnt closed. (I know you know this, but in…[Read more]

Dana is right. I know it’s shocking to see, but leaving the wound open like that is not unusual. It does sound like the procedure went well, so that’s good news. The opioid is probably making her sleepy and that’s OK. After a few days, hopefully she will start to perk up again.
