    dry flaky ears?

    Andy's ears look like they have dandruff, not to much, just a little bit. As i was doing his regular health check today, i noticed it looked a bit flaky. I know coconut oil moisturizes skin, so i was wondering if i could put a little bit of it on his ears? (his ears have VERY thin fur on them)

    Yoga mats?

    Does anybody on here use these for their bunny? I was thinking of getting one or two for Andy's cage (then probably cutting it to size) due to him beginning to get sore hocks.

    Rabbit doesn't like me anymore?

    Lately I think Andy doesn't like me, when he's out of his cage playing he'll come to me I'm not sure what he wants so I usually pet him, he then runs away and kicks his hind legs at me, (I've read that means he's annoyed) He has also been making this clicking noise (not purring) randomly. I...
