Thank you

Update update: she was able to come home last night and we thought she was doing better. I came home from school today and she passed away

Update: not good We took her to the vet and he said her stomach was really gassy, she has an infection, and she's severely underweight. We've been letting her settle in this past week, which is why we didn't notice how skinny she was. She's staying overnight in the vet, and tommorow if she...

My bunny (9 weeks) has been making some strange almost cough-like noises. She's also been opening and closing her mouth, including when she sleeps. Do I need to take her to the vet?

The important thing is not to bathe them. To clean a white rabbit: 1. use a mix 50/50 of white vinegar and water in a spray bottle. 2. Dampen the area to be cleaned and then rub cornstarch into the area until it is the consistency of tooth-paste. 3. Let dry and then brush out. For stubborn...

It would be outdoors, and I can get the pen/hutch to be built any way I want. Is there a specific way that either should be built?

Have you tried any easy diys? For example: Toilet paper rolls Paper towel rolls Empty oatmeal containers brown paper bags filled with hay Dig boxes (Fill a box with sand, dirt, newspaper, shredded paper, bedding ect.)

Would a 6x7 rabbit pen with one floor and a dog house inside, or a two story 5x7 hutch be better for two rabbits?

Thanks! I'm going to be adopting two rabbits, so they're already litter trained. Would washable pee pads be better? Also what should I use in the house part where they sleep, in the winter? I want to use straw but I don't want to confuse them on where to go

Is a 5x7 with two levels (70 sq ft) a big enough space for two rabbits with 1 hour of free roam time per day? Also, since they'd be outside is it ok to have a rug in the run and bedding in the house part? Would they be too cold in the run?

If I use hay in my rabbits' enclosure, will it confused them on where to go to the bathroom if they're already litter trained? The litter in the litter box is pine pellets

During the winter it usually gets down to 10-20 degrees F during the day and around 0 at night. My rabbits have a dog house inside their pen to sleep in, but would stuffing it with fleece blankets or straw be warmer? The flooring in the pen is a rug, so I would rather use a fleece blanket if I...

Sorry now there's a bottom on the run, so its fully weather proof. Don't worry lol. Anyway they're outside because of allergies, and there aren't any spare rooms that we can dedicate to the rabbit

I built an 8x8 pen outside under my back deck. It has a roof and it is mostly weather proof, but I'm wondering what to use on the floor. It is a hard wood floor, that I don't think would be very comfortable. I also don't want to use loose bedding unless I have to (really messy and expensive)...

Aww!!! They're so cute. And not questioning things is very smart haha. Thats so sweet of you to rescue rabbits and give them a home
