That depends. The only way to know is to try it. They have reviews that show people that used to love it for its freshness are now saying quality has gone way down and it is dry and dusty. So it depends on how fresh it is. I prefer to get hay locally. That way I can visually inspect it before...

What a cutie! She's just begging for a fitting name with all that fluff! But a good name depends also on your likes and interests. The following is my go-to suggestion list when it comes to naming a rabbit... Do you have any favorite movies or books? You can use character names from those. (She...

Welcome to the forum.

These types of bowls that either twist or slide onto a clamp cannot be tipped over or spilled. And since they are raised slightly (because of the clamp) the rabbits tend to not get in them either.

Going pellet-free is generally not recommended, though can be done with extreme research. This article is written with quotes from some well-respected rabbit experts... https://wabbitwiki.com/wiki/Pellet-free_diet

Could you elaborate on this point? Cats and dogs will "spar" for play -- wrestle and play fight, basically. Rabbits do not "play" in this way. For them (being prey) such actions are serious and frightening. That's why I ask if you could elaborate. Exactly how are the dog and cat interacting with...

Try contacting a local 4-H club.

@New2RabbitsDonna63 , you had some good instincts for introducing your poodle to your rabbit. For further info on dogs & rabbits (either for you or for @So Sad), check out the following... https://rabbitsindoors.weebly.com/rabbits-with-dogs.html

Have the other siblings gone on their way and it's just the one that you're caring for indoors now? Baby cottontails are about the most difficult to hand-raise. Here is an excellent article loaded with info on dealing with baby cottontails...

Adorable!

Yup. You are correct. No need to get a rabbit now that you have 2 dogs and 2 cats. Enjoy your furry pets.

Hopefully now that you are older, you will be able to take the time to research more about rabbit care if you decide you would like to have one for a pet again. It's always a good idea to first learn all the basics and know what vet costs could potentially be incurred. If you decide you may go...

@JBun

I second the idea of looking at some rabbit rescues where you can volunteer and help out. When reviewing the list that Jenny provided, I'd suggest looking for those that are specifically rabbit rescues, as opposed to generic pet shelters. That way you can focus just on rabbits. The people in...

Love the photo!

A couple notes on the diet... Cabbage, cauliflower, and broccoli all have the potential to cause gas issues. Bear that in mind whenever those are fed and keep an eye out for that possibility. Those may need to be limited. Greens are more what we're after when it comes to fresh foods. The...

What was the surgery for on the tail? What else is going on with this poor rabbit? His fur seems to be in terrible shape. What is the rabbit's age? Diet?

Fresh greens and hay is great! What type/brand of pellet food? Generally it is recommended to limit the intake of pellets for rabbits over 6 months of age. These are the recommendations by weight for rabbits getting unlimited hay (very important) and daily greens: 5-7 lb of body wt. 1/4 cup...

Just wanted to say that Sherwood (mentioned by Jenny) is a great company for rabbit food, etc. They are easily on par (or better than) Oxbow. They have a digestive support product and an appetite restore product (among others). https://store.sherwoodpethealth.com/rabbit/ So if you have no luck...
