  Not just Cats 101, Dogs 101, BUT PETS 101!!!!!!
  
  I’m watching one with a pet pig. The pigs live indoor and outdoor. How attached their humans are to them.. and a couple owns 2 pigs. The lady said “I fear the day that our pigs go to pig heaven..” She teared up
  
  Oh, and piggies can be spayed and neutered
  
  According to my on demand schedule, it says this episode will have: hedgehog, pygymy goat, capybara, mini donkey, skunk.

  What do rabbits need to eat?
  Leafy Greens, small amounts of pellets, LOTS OF HAY.
  
  Rabbits need to be out for a few hours a day.
  
  When letting out a rabbit, you need to rabbit proof.
  
  Spay and neutering can make life span higher.

  Don’t use wood shavings.. use paper pulp bedding for litter boxes. Rabbits can be taught to use a litter box and can be very good about using it.
  
  I don’t like how they showed the famous lady with the flemish. It is nice to show an actual owner, but it showed her feeding her bunny an entire apple o_o and we know what happens if we were to feed our rabbits an entire apple.. fat.

  I was quite impressed with the rabbit feature of this episiode! They didn’t seem to go ‘into’ the rabbit part as much as the other pets, but still good!
  
  The whole apple is not great but Darius also is 50 lbs! I don’t think it would have quite the same affect on our much smaller rabbits!

  I love watching the 101 shows for different dog breeds. We’ve wanted a dog for years but we’re so undecided on breed, we like watching that show for possible clues on dog/rabbit relationships.
  
  I did see some of the rabbit part last night. I was watching the midnight showing and dozed off for a sec, but saw the last couple minutes. Some mighty cute buns. I was pleased that the info was accurate and that spay and neuter was stressed!

  Very cool!
  
  My vet’s office sent out an email that Dr Sitinas, from their practice, is going to be on the show! Did you see him on the pig episode? I haven’t seen this vet before, I think he’s new to the practice, but they see tons of exotics so it’s cool that one of their doctors is on the show. I’ll have to watch the rabbit one if I can find it in reruns.

  Is this episode available online anywhere? I don’t have cable either but would love to watch it! I’m searching on their website and can’t seem to find anything, except for this adorable video of a bunny cuddling two lab puppies:
