    Spay / neuter

    So, I just called to get all the information on our rabbits spay / neuter and the vet I was going to use... said to take their food up. I'm like, rabbits can't vomit and if their digestive tracts empty, it is very dangerous for them. The lady is like "not if you take it up before midnight" ...

    Rex - mini or juvenile?

    And to give a little bit of a scale of her size... She weighs 3-4lbs. I just adopted this rescue from her foster family yesterday. Everyone in the other thread said she is a rex - but I looked up the Rex breed and it said 8-10lbs for females. As you can see, that hidey hut (the twig one they...

    Some care questions on new rescue

    We just brought home the girl bun I had asked about earlier - she has a few issues from her original owner I am unsure about the complications from. 1) Her whiskers were cut. It looks like someone decided they were too long and trimmed them short in spots and they are long in others, all...

    Opinions please - possible bondmate?

    Hello again all - yes I ask a lot of questions lol My rabbit has been "bonding" with his own reflection in a mirror and I want to get him a friend. My plan was to wait until after he is neutered and healed up and then get a new rabbit. However... a lady in town rescued a bunny from an owner...

    Chew materials

    I bought wooden chew sticks at the pet store, but Powder doesn't really like chewing on them. He chewed up a couple, but he seems to prefer to chew on cardboard/paper/hay than wood. He's going to the vet next week to have his teeth checked out/make sure everything is OK/have his claws clipped...

    Nail clipping? Help.

    I've googled the tutorials, youtubed videos, etc. But all the pictures/videos/tutorials show perfectly well behaved bunnies - they let the people stand them on their hind legs, grab their feet, sit in their laps perfectly still, etc. My Powder is NOT that sort of bunny. I want to be able to...

    Powder and the crazy parrot

    I adopted Powder near the end of April, he was living in the humane society shelter since October 19th! Poor baby. They had no luck placing him because the kids who came in thought his eyes were scary. They gave us a carrier to bring him home in and it took him 15 minutes to come out. He...

    DBF are adorable :D

    Powder has joined the ranks of the DBF buns - last night the lights were out and we were in bed, Powder came over near the air vent by the bed and laid down. Few minutes later, there is a THUD! and look down and he's DBF'd lol so adorable.

    Cage phobic

    Powder since getting the advice of the vinyl around the litterbox has been using his box exclusively again, yay! But he still has one issue which I thought would resolve itself in time when he settled in, but has instead gotten worse rather than better: He has an absolute phobia of being...

    Purposefully ignoring litterbox

    Powder still uses his box inside the cage fine - but once he's out he has his little dark spot he likes. He was using one corner, so I put his litterbox there. He used it for a week. Then he swapped to the other corner, so I put a litterbox there. Well, now he's going in between the two...

    Marking

    My bun isn't neutered yet and I know marking will happen, but... he seems to be marking the area my boyfriends scent is the strongest in only (where he spends the largest part of his days at home). Otherwise he is 100% on his litter box. He picked a few spots the second day here and I put boxes...

    Escape artist!

    Powder decided he didn't want to go to bed when I put them to bed normally today and managed to push his cage off it's base by pushing his weight against it and squeeze out of a hole I have no idea how he fit through given how big he is! :confused2: So I guess i'll be figuring out some way to...

    Any way to tell a bunny's age?

    The shelter had no idea how old my bun was when I picked him up - is there any way to tell? Or is it like birds, they are either babies or adults?

    Question about diet

    I brought my bunny home from the shelter yesterday - they didn't know much about bunnies in general, they said their bunny person quit so they only knew the very, very basics. I gave him timothy hay, as much as he wants to eat. I bought pellets without any additions of seed/fruit/veggies etc...

    Brought home my bun!

    Newest bunny member of the forum: Powder Just brought him home from the shelter. I was going to adopt a pair of females that are in foster care, but this bun was in the small metal cages at the humane society since October 19th! People found him "scary" because of his red eyes, bleh. I think...

    What breed is he?

    Shelter just has him down as a mix, can anyone place what breed he is? They say he is about 5lbs and 2 years old.

    I love the people who lived at my house before me..

    So, we were doing some garage sorting because whoever sold this house to our landlord did not clear it out and neither did the landlord - everything in it was fair game to be used / tossed at our leisure. Well, I am about to adopt a bunny and was about to go buy NIC cubes / plastic sheets for...

    Adopting a bunny pair - a few questions!

    I am applying to adopt a bonded pair of lionhead rabbits. I have already scoped out the NIC cages and have plans to build one before they come home. Water bottle (or bowl, i'll ask what they are used to), food bowl, hay rack, litter box (they are already trained). But... I have a few questions...

    Rabbit concerns with bird

    I have a cockatiel and I am looking into adopting rabbits from the local shelter but, I want to clear up a few concerns before hand: My cockatiel is on a pelleted diet - often he throws some of the pellets into the floor. I would like to turn my rabbits into house bunnies. If a rabbit got any...
