    Hi From New Brunswick, Canada

    Hello and welcome from the other side of Atlantic Canada!!

    Earwig infestation!

    Replace the hay and pellets :< A couple bugs probably won't harm the food but you don't want dozens in it. You're going to need to find a new way to keep the hay/food. My guess is you have a barn or something? Try getting an old aquarium off classifieds and sealing the hay and food in there with...

    Help me , super worried

    The behaviour won't stop until she's spayed unfortunately. Check with shelters and vets for low-cost spaying or payment plans. In the meantime, you can try working with her, sit in a room with her (where she cannot escape contact like under a bed) and talk gently to her and pet her on HER...

    Sore Hocks

    What is her normal flooring like? Fleece and soft blankets are needed until this heals. Trim her nails. Go to a pharmacy and pick up chlorhexadine in the first aid section, then dilute that in a bit of water to clean the bunnies hocks. If you pour any amount of water on her belly/back/feet make...

    Becoming a Vegetarian

    I guess I'm also a saucitarian. I add so much dressing to salads it's no longer considered healthy!

    new bunnies' housing - adequate?

    Litter substrate can be anything from aspen shavings, to shredded newspaper to newspaper pellets. It should not be cat litter, pine shavings or corn cob husks. Then the floor can be fleece or flat newspaper, foam puzzle tiles, linoleum or a bedsheet (depending on how much cleaning, discarding...

    Becoming a Vegetarian

    We don't have Morning Star in Newfoundland. There's one brand called Veggie Patch which makes the buffalo nuggets and chicken nuggets and falafel (though its much easier to make falafel yourself) Yay! Lose weight at a healthy rate, I think 1-2 pounds per week is healthy. Rapid loss or gain is...

    Shy, skittish bunny

    Hi! congrats on your little man. First bit of advice, give him time. He will come around. Make slow movements around him so as not to spook him and be slow and gentle about "intruding" on his cage. The only thing he knows now that's steady is his cage because he peed in there. It's his only...

    new bunnies' housing - adequate?

    Okay. First and foremost- are they spayed/neutered? If not, make that your priority so they make better pets and poop/pee where they're supposed to! Your climate does not get too cold for bunnies, in fact, bunnies sometimes prefer cooler temperatures. They do not tolerate heat. You want to...

    relationships...

    Ha how cute!! I'm glad I'm not the only one with a non-cuddly bun. Acacia is, and always has been, a very shy alert bunny. I can have her on the bed with the door closed and she is a doll- demanding pets and snuggles. If I open her pen and sit there she will never come out on her own. I have...

    Becoming a Vegetarian

    As I write this I am waiting on my pasta noodles to finish cooking- I cut my tofu small like hash brown french fries! The small er the pieces, the more flavor per piece :) If you like Thai food, you'll LOVE tofu patties and peanut sauce!

    mature bunny- suddenly nipping

    I know but my place is so small and she can only come out on the couch or bed or in on my bedroom floor. Well, last night I had her on the couch and she was making forts and socialising with us and being very good. She nipped my side once, I think she was only grabbing my shirt to add to her...

    Becoming a Vegetarian

    Congrats on your decision! I have been a lacto-ovo vegetarian for almost 12 years now. Initially it was hard because I was only 14 and mom did NOT support my decision so I literally starved half the time. You're adults so you won't- lol I eat meat substitutes all the time because my bf eats...

    Wooden chew toy- safe to ingest?

    I have been buying the living world wood chews for 6 years, Bunny likes them :)

    URGENT Rehoming Needed

    Omg I wish you the best of luck! Is there a rabbit rescue that can help you advertise them?? My experience here with the rescue is that bonded pairs are extremely hard to home so you might need a bit of extra help on your pairs. *fingers crossed for you*

    mature bunny- suddenly nipping

    Well for chewing clothes, I think Acacia likes the squeaky sound it makes when she grinds her teeth on things like fleece and baby blankets. That's the only thing I can conclude bc she tries a lot of different clothing articles in her teeth. I would compare it to the sound you hear internally...

    mature bunny- suddenly nipping

    I will try the head thing. I know she's easily submissive as I had her trained before. Thanks :) It's awful hard to be mad at her though lol

    mature bunny- suddenly nipping

    Well, she bit my chest while I was sitting up and she was on my lap. And she really only does it on the couch, when I take her in on the bed she never nips and when she's on the floor she doesn't either. My bf usually sits on teh couch with her and so he jumps up when she nips, this I know is...
