    Older rescue rabbit - concerned about her health.

    Ah thank you, I thought it would be something like that... will look into getting some lucerne as I only have meadow at present. And thanks for the size portions also :)

    Older rescue rabbit - concerned about her health.

    Thanks for the quick replies. I live in New Zealand, so please excuse my ignorance, but do we even have alfalfa available to us here? I've never for one, heard of alfalfa hay here in NZ (I own a horse and usually buy meadow or lucerne hay only), so is this something I could obtain? Will...

    Older rescue rabbit - concerned about her health.

    Hi everyone, Two-three years back we took on two Netherland x Rex rescue bunnies, albeit we didn't know a great deal, just fed them a decent diet and let them live happily together outside. They were impossible to handle, very frightened of humans, as they came from a home with a child who...

    Change in Behaviour, should I be concerned?

    Thanks! This vet was talking about how she'd need to be tubed - hence the cost being extravagant. Odd because they are exceptional vets and most people use them. Granted perhaps they are awesome for normal pets only! Yes I chose to have mine indoor and monitor their diets. Most people over...

    Change in Behaviour, should I be concerned?

    I rung the vet here that we use and is one of the best in town. Not only did they tell me it would cost me more than it did for my med-large breed dog to be spayed, but the risks were incredibly high and they don't do that surgery very often as bunnies are terrible under anesthetic. I'm terribly...

    Is my rabbit trying to be friends with my dog?

    Thanks again for the incoming stories, they do make me smile with ease. Kuromi and Izzy would never be left alone together. I supervise everything like that as I am more than aware of how easily injuries and fatal mistakes can occur. Ive worked in rescues and have seen the consequences of poor...

    Change in Behaviour, should I be concerned?

    Thanks heaps. Yes the run has enough room to burn off energy and she frequently binkies so I've always taken that as a sign of enough room to move about happily. Didn't think about the space issue, now that I have you're right she is telling me if her house. Last time I cleaned up I locked her...

    Is my rabbit trying to be friends with my dog?

    Thanks everyone!! Yes Izzy is rather laid back in nature and very loyal to me - she's had all sorts of animals come and go around her and is also very good with my guinea pigs when they're on my bed. Thanks again!!

    Change in Behaviour, should I be concerned?

    She is 9months old, and altered as in spayed? She's not spayed.

    Is my rabbit trying to be friends with my dog?

    So Kuromi is in the living room with me at the moment with free access (everything's been bunny proofed prior to her coming in) and she's thoroughly enjoying herself! This isn't the first time she's done this, but she's boldly approaching my border collie x lab. Izzy (the dog) is wimpy by...

    Change in Behaviour, should I be concerned?

    This may be a little lengthy as I wish to give a full picture! Kuromi is a cashmere lop x bunny, and she lives indoors in my bedroom. She has her own large home and a run attached to it. She also gets out to have a good stretch - both around the house and outdoors in her harness, but I have...

    Chewing housing base - help please!

    Miss Kuromi has always been quite active in chewing and scratching. I've learnt with sharing a room with a rabbit, one must put up with a lot of noise in the early hours of the morning when she wakes up, and have adapted - namely by removing noisy items at night - to this behaviour. Other than...

    How To Make A Ramp

    Your ramp is pretty cool. When Kuromi was a baby she had two ramps, but I found them such a hassle. As she grew, I turned a box upside down and put a hole in it ... she LOVED that. Though because she shares the room with me, at night time -I- didn't enjoy it ;) So I put a second grid in as a...

    Cage cubes/grids - where to find some in NZ!

    Azerane~! That would be helpful if you could! I have tried a few places, without much luck. All places that DID sell them no longer do... typical when you're in the market to buy something!

    Cage cubes/grids - where to find some in NZ!

    Because they were left outside some of the bars have surface rust. I have used those parts at bits both of them cannot reach for now but with it chipping off it's rather frustrating!!

    Cage cubes/grids - where to find some in NZ!

    Hi, I house a baby rabbit and guinea pig in my room, and love building the grid cages however, the ones gifted to me have been left outside and the coverings peeled off... whilst sturdy and both animals are safe in them, every time I move them around, more bits of the plastic coating (or...

    Separating Outdoor Rabbits?

    Hi :) As a semi inexperienced rabbit owner, I have a few questions regarding our outdoor rabbits. We rescued them a couple of years ago and they are slowly warming up to people, however they're still very wary due to a terrible past. The cage they're currently in is not suitable, and it has...
