^ This is very true. She definitely seems happier now. She has more energy; she comes out and explores; she hasn't grunted at all yet; and, when she reached sexual maturity she stopped doing binkies, and while I'm still waiting to see her jump around again, she has started doing head flicks...
Once she reached sexual maturity my bun became very territorial. She would almost never leave her cage, and the few times she did she would just grunt the entire time. It was behavior I'd read could be altered by spaying her, and was the main change I'd hoped to see in her.
I had her spayed 4...
I am interested in getting a 2nd rabbit, and I would strongly prefer to adopt than purchase one at the pet store. However, I live in Labrador, which is very isolated and the small animal shelter we have here does not have any rabbits.
I know that some organizations are willing to transport...
My bun lives in her cage at the end of my bed, just off to the side. I live with 2 other people and spend most of my time home in my room, so I prefer having her in here with me. The only issue I've come across is her noisiness at night. But it's only really woken me up 2 or 3 times so far (I've...
I ended up going with carpet. I had let her run around in a little cardboard&carpet cat condo I had built before and remembered that she hadn't bothered with the carpet in that, so I figured I'd give her a chance on carpet. And she's doing great! I'm half surprised but mostly proud of her :3...
I wanted something soft to avoid sore hocks. I'm just worried that vinyl would be too slippery? Maybe I can find a slip resistant vinyl and stick it over foam. Thanks for the tips.
Hey everyone, I'm planning to build a NIC cage for my bun, but I am having no luck coming up with flooring ideas.
My bun is a major chewer. She chews almost anything I put inside her cage. I want her to have comfortable flooring at least on her shelves, but I think she'll likely chew carpet...
So I got my bunny when she was about 2 months old, she is now 4 months old. I started her off in a cat-sized litter pan but noticed she was a bit too small and weary of jumping in and out, so I gave her a smaller, shallower container. She has been litter trained ever since.
Until tonight...
My bunny is named "Ralpa" after a quote on the Simpsons. Lol.
Some sweets-style names for your bunny could be: Godiva, Muffin, Sugar, Truffles, Kit-Kat, Licorice, Twix, Trix, Chip, Cocoa, Pudding, Marzipan, etc etc.
Let us know what you decide! :D

Trixie was the 2nd rabbit I had. She was a very fickle rabbit who only really warmed up to me, as I was probably the only person who was patient enough with her. She was not fond of being held or petted much, but was very easy-going with my other pets, as you can see from some of the...

Thumper was the first rabbit I ever owned. He was probably the coolest rabbit I'd ever encountered, he loved everyone and was just a very happy boy :3
This is only the 3rd day since I got my little bunny Ralpa (approx 2 months old) and I'm trying to get her used to being picked up and held so I can cuddle with her.
I've had 2 rabbits in the past, for over 11 years, but it's been about 7 years now since I had my last. So it's basically all...
I live in a small, isolated town, so store-bought chew toys are not an easy thing to come by. I'm looking for some stuff that can be ordered online, or preferably items I could make or find around the house or outdoors.
So far I've come up with cardboard, paper bags, dried pine cones, and...
This is Ralpa, my brand new bunny friend, and the 3rd bunny I've owned. Ralpa is only about 2 months old right now, but already developing such a personality! :)
