Yes, I agree that he’s probably a hotot (Blanc de Hotot) pronounced “Ho-Toe”.
Normally I’d be quick to say he’s likely a mixed breed, bring a stray, but that eye matk abs no other black is very indicative of Hotot. The blue eyes make it even more likely.
I looked it up earlier and there are actually Hotot born with just the one eye band. It’…[Read more]

So I followed your advice and got rid of the litter boxes and put down pee pads where I would normally put the litters. I have noticed a decrease in nips and snuffles. One date lasted 1.5 hours and we didn’t have any nipping at all. 🙂
They are both relaxing around each other still, and I’ve noticed Winter is laying down on her stomach more oft…[Read more]

Thanks! We figured it would be more masculine since we found out that he was a he not a she. All our buns are named after supernatural characters.

Sorry for my absence, my hands are still troubling me and computer use is painful. I wrote this in several stages, because I owe this to Breintje, my dearly beloved buddy… I’m glad that you didn’t suffer much, but I’m really traumatised by the way that you went, and our last goodbye traumatised me a little again… It’s been a horrible weekend,…[Read more]

Oh well at least i know im not doing something wrong haha. I will likely be trying to take it to a vet this weekend or so, I hope they will at least do low cost/break even as I understand they need to make money too. But yeah this was unexpected but i couldn’t just let the him die.

Thank you for the reply. Glad you got it working 🙂 His eye color is blue. if someone dumped him over eye markings that would be sad.

That’s great you are able to travel so easily with your rabbit. For future reference, the new domestic vaccine does not require any live rabbits to produce, which is super exciting!
And for anyone coming across this thread, Filivac and Eravac do require live rabbits to produce, but my understanding is that thousands of doses are made from 1…[Read more]

The site has been having issues with media uploading, it’s not just you!
I would definitely recommend getting in touch with a rescue if there’s one in your region. They maybe be able to help with medical costs and spay/neuter given the circumstances.

I managed to get the videos to work. You have to click on them. In the second video, you can see a black band around his other eye. What color are his eyes? I’m wondering if he is a Hotot without the proper markings.

Hmmm. You bring up some good points. Once the flemmies are rebonded, we need to at least give the four leaf clover of buns 🍀 a try. If not we will do the different levels, as that sounds like a great idea.
R.T was supposed to be a girl, but the owner got it wrong. We only found out when they both went in to be fixed.

Yes, I asked our vet in NY for any vaccine really and it was not available as NY was not considered to be an outbreak state, so the vet could not import it. As of last month when I asked, it was still not possible for neither EU vaccines or the domestic vaccine. Glad to hear that the domestic vaccine is moving on. On the other side, from the…[Read more]

Hi there, thank you for rescuing this rabbit! You are likely right in that it was dumped, so sad. 🙁
The main concerns with Southern CA and outdoor housing are heat (as you mentioned), disease, and predators. Currently in S CA there is a deadly rabbit virus circulating called RHDV2, but thankfully there is a vaccine available for it. There is a…[Read more]

Hey everyone found this rabbit where I live roaming around my yard, zoomed in on it the first time i saw it since it didn’t want to scare it. I live in coyote, hawk, snake, etc area, so I didn’t want it to die. It would come up to me but wouldnt really let me pet it at first, but I could touch it with a few fingers before it moved a few inches…[Read more]

Ah, so you have 4! I have 4 too, it can get complicated! I was trying for a quad but that didn’t work out so I ended up with two pairs.
So I noticed with my pairs, that I saw a ton more destructive and frustrated type behaviors when they were housed side by side. Once I moved into a bigger place, I opted to give 1 pair the upstairs and 1 pairs…[Read more]
