    Cat Using Rabbit Litter

    I use oxbow pellets. Sometimes sophresh pellets. Topped with hay. I thought the cats wouldn’t like that either. I mean, they aren’t farm cats.

    Cat Using Rabbit Litter

    My cats and rabbit are very comfortable with each other now. They hang out, sit next to each other sometimes, and now I caught my cat using the rabbit litter. The cat litter is downstairs. The rabbit lives in two rooms upstairs. I guess the cat didn't feel like walking all the way down the...

    Success! (trimming nails)

    I only put part of the towel over his head. Other people who’ve posted on YouTube might show this in their process.

    Success! (trimming nails)

    Yep, this is the one I first saw, but my rabbit was not this passive until I covered his eyes. But the technique is perfect after that!

    Success! (trimming nails)

    I think there was a video I first saw on this forum. The rabbit seemed so calm that I had to find other videos that showed how to handle an ornery squirmy rabbit with no fear of anything or anyone. One showed the chase as well, but I didn't need to chase mine. I have a policy of no chasing...

    Success! (trimming nails)

    I finally got up the courage to trim Marlowe’s nails myself! I watched several videos- one was iffy since all the others said not to put the rabbit on its back since that’s not really as calming as it looks. Marlowe was not happy with me but accepted the strawberry top after a bit anyway.

    Why Did You Get Rabbits?

    I never really liked rabbits. Never understood them and they ate everything I planted when I finally was able to get a garden. Then a few years ago my daughters cousin in law - something like that- abandoned her rabbit and left it alone for days and weeks on end and long story short I kept...

    Vacation Question

    So for the first time since I got Marlowe, I’ll be on vacation. My brother is going to come in once a day to give him food and check his water, etc. And I guess that’s okay since I rescued him from being alone with no one checking on him or feeding him for days on end. And he’s got a room to...

    To neuter or not to neuter

    My vet said it’s not necessary if he’s the only rabbit in the house and there’s not any behavior issues. They specialize in “exotic” animals so I trust them.

    Getting neighbor's rabbit out of a bad situation

    I got Marlowe from a neglectful situation, but he wasn’t even outside. He was in a small pen, maybe one hop across and a half a hop wide, in a back room, alone for days and nights on end for months. I’m not sure how he survived. But I actually just asked if I could have him. And she said yes! So...

    Vet says neutering isn’t necessary!!

    Maybe. But maybe the vet also considered him too old at that point? The former owner had him for several years (the last year locked in a cage, alone in a room for the most part). When I got him he might have been five. I’m not sure. But the vet said they weren’t in favor of neutering him then...

    Vet says neutering isn’t necessary!!

    Marlowe isn’t neutered (he’s about 5?) and my vet said he doesn’t need to be. He is single, (the rabbit, that is- I don’t know if the vet is single) doesn’t have any spraying or other issues and they say there’s no need for surgery if there aren’t any problems. The clinic is rabbit savvy- they...

    Learn something new everyday

    [QUOTE="ArtistChibThe more I learn about rabbits, the more like them I find myself to be. Light and heat sensitive, don't like sudden loud noises, don't like being stressed, need a specific diet to survive.... it’s funny - both my rabbit and I run toward loud noises! I do because I’m a mom and...

    Cats and rabbits

    I hate to say it, but the cat's name is Josie. Like in Josie is a Pussycat. My kids hate that name, but then again, it's not their cat. She was in the room a lot when I painted (this was before Marlow arrived and the whole room is muraled because I got a bit carried away) but she didn't even...
