    Help! Naughty bunny problems.

    My bunny ingests a decent amount of cardboard (and he's a nethie) and has never had any issues with it. He'll mostly shred and chew a bit. It's EVERYTHING ELSE that I worry about. He's eaten candles, rubber, foam, and what else -_-

    Where can I buy wood stove pellets?

    I just picked up a 40lb bag at OSH (Orchard Supply Hardware) for a bit less than $7. I still have some of my older bedding to go through, but I'm interested to see how these pellets work! I was wondering though, why are wood shavings a no no for bedding and pellets okay?

    Yesterday's News

    I don't know whether the different versions have the same litter, but I'm pretty certain that the cat version is safe for rabbits because it's made from 100% recycled paper.

    Incessant Urinating/Defecating on Bed

    Rabbits just seem to have this LOVE of peeing/pooping on your bed. There was another topic where lots of others have had the same problem (including me!). My bunny is pretty good about not peeing or pooping while I'm on the bed, but if he has access to it when he's alone, he'll definitely...

    Is this okay?

    I say why not? Try letting him stay in that area for a day and see if you have any problems. As long as you can make sure that the wiring/fencing is secure it sounds like he should be okay to stay in the enclosed area.

    What have they eaten that hasn't killed them?

    OMG you guys have pretty crazy stories! It's so odd how rabbits stomachs are so sensitive yet they eat such a huge variety of non-edible things and seem to be okay. I think it's hilarious that other people's bunnies like remote control buttons as well. Waffle has tried to chew on mine but I...

    Actually EATING litter

    I would recommend changing to a recycled paper litter immediately if your rabbit is eating the corn cob litter. I hear that it can be really bad for them over the long run, but I'm sure just a bit isn't too harmful. Good luck!

    What have they eaten that hasn't killed them?

    So rabbits obviously love to chew on things they shouldn't. I'm always super fearful that one day Waffle will eat something that will either make him sick or kill him immediately! Just a few minutes earlier I went to go wash my bed sheets (because he peed on them) and when I got back, HE WAS...

    need advice on fearful rabbit

    Don't force him to love you. Some rabbits warm up to their owners very quickly, but some can take over a year just to get comfortable. I would suggest hanging out beside his cage while he's in it and talk to him so that he gets more familiar with who you are. Having treats to feed him will...

    Really bad bunny!

    I'm sure everyone else here will recommend getting her spayed. That SHOULD change her personality by getting her to calm down, but that's never a guarantee. Can you get a large piece of carpet and encourage them to chew on that? You might just have to end up confining them to a certain part...

    Holding/handling bunnies

    *Mike, love the photo! Thank you all for the responses so far! It's really encouraging to see that some bunnies can grow to be fond of being held. I definitely need to remember to be patient because I haven't even had Waffle for two months yet. I'll have to make sure he's comfy and feels safe!

    Okay, so I need ideas for the floor of my cage

    How many rabbits are you taking in? You should consider potty training them. Some rabbits take a little while to learn but some can learn to pee in their box within a single day. Poop you never really have to worry about because it doesn't smell and it's solid/easy to clean. If you have...

    Holding/handling bunnies

    Wow it's good to know that a lot of people do have bunnies that are okay with or even like being held! I'll have to work with my rabbit to see what the best solution is.

    Your bunny pee on the bed?

    Nevermind, he just peed on my bed and then ran off. -_- WAFFLE, YOUR POOP BOX WAS LIKE, LESS THAN A FOOT AWAY!!!! I am in agreement that rabbits totally know that they're peeing on your bed and do so just to laugh at you.

    Holding/handling bunnies

    It's general knowledge that rabbits don't like being held since they're prey creatures but I know that some people have more luck with handling and holding their rabbits than others and was just sort of curious to see how their bunnies dealt with it. How often do you handle/hold your bunny...

    Your bunny pee on the bed?

    OH MAN it's kind of hilarious that others have the same issue. The first couple of weeks I had Waffle I wouldn't let him go on my bed, but one day he was able to hop onto it and I saw how happy he was that he could run around freely (the floor in my bedroom is bamboo so it's pretty slippery for...

    Reversal of Litter Training *dire help needed*

    At first I just put a little cardboard box with holes (as someone else mentioned they did) but that wasn't good enough for him. Adding a small towel did the trick! He peed on it the very first night but since then hasn't peed outside of his poop box!

    Waffle's Cardboard Cavern of Doom!

    Oh I didn't know you could use sandpaper! Maybe I'll have to try that because he seems to be using his windows rather than the stairway. Thanks for the tip!

    Reversal of Litter Training *dire help needed*

    Does he have a "bed" area to use? My bunny was peeing everywhere and someone suggested that I give him a comfy spot where he could rest and sleep, which worked wonders. I didn't realize that he was using his litter box to hang out. If you can entice your rabbit with an even more comfortable pee...

    Waffle's Cardboard Cavern of Doom!

    I've been adding more and more cardboard boxes to Waffle's play area (which has now taken over a good chunk of my bedroom) and decided to make him a 2-story condo today! The condo turned out better than expected but it took Waffle a bit to learn how to get to the second floor. He prefers to...
