Brie's spay is tomorrow. I cancelled her last appointment because I was totally not ready. The lady I made the appointment with told me I could take her in for a checkup with a vet before bringing her in for her spay at the local humane society if it made me feel better, so I did. The vet...

Just curious how it was done. Everyone wants me to just grab Brie until she gets used to being held, but she responds very well to baby steps with "clicking". Quotes cause I can't hold a clicker and try to hold her at the same time so I usually click with my tongue. She fights really hard when...

There's a myth that with dogs, two are better than one, cause they'll keep each other company. Truth is, two means more work and more destruction. I'm wondering if it's the same with buns, or if two really means they'll keep each other company so Brie will stop looking for things to destroy...

More specifically, the willow wreaths with leaves still attached and not completely dried out. I only know of Binky Bunny and Busy Bunny, and both stores are sold out of a LOT of items. What's going on? Brie needs more toys NOW. I just had to patch up the carpet. We live in the city so...

Can someone clarify the rabbit heat cycle for me a bit please? My inclination is to assume they get monthly "periods" like humans and dogs, but what do I know? Links would be helpful, if you have any handy. I like knowing about the natural behaviors of animals anyway. I haven't seen Brie bleed...

Hi all, my little cousin's friend has a bunny in Bakersfield, CA that needs a home. The closest HRS I know of there is in San Diego. Any leads on finding the bunny help?

Brie has begun to cover everything I own in fluff. And when I pet her I come away with fur all over my hands, in my mouth, and up my nose. My initial response was that its that time of the year. But you know, I don't know rabbits. What if it isn't? She's losing a lot of fur in only some places...

We've had the harness for a bit now. She grew out of it before we even tried it. Then we got the upgraded size... and guess what? It was a return, cause Brie climbed all over me to get to the harness to sniff it! I'm thinking I would leave a pile of yummies and put it over her and try to...

I tried a while ago to collect the fur I brushed off of Brie, thinking maybe in a few years I'd have enough for knit a glove. :laughsmiley: Anyone else here do this? Have done it? Is successful making things out of the shed fur? I haven't looked up the process yet, just curious about...

I'm looking for alfalfa pellets (for now) AND timothy pellets (for later) . We've started clicker training and I want to use pellets instead of tons of sweets. The banana chips work but the amount limits the training time. I need brands that have LONG PIECES. The pellets I have now barely...

Completely unprovoked. I was sitting at the computer, she was resting somewhere under the chair, then she decided to nibble on her little book, and suddenly there were teeth pinching the top of my foot. Hard! There's a small bruise now and it's slightly punctured. What in the world? I don't...

We're going to adopt a brother for Brie in a few months and really want a bun that we can cuddle! Brie likes to be pet and will flop for it but we want a more affectionate bun. Just curious if statistically certain breed/mixes are more affectionate than others. Who has a cuddly bun and what...

I'm a total DIYer, so I was wondering if anyone weaves their own baskets or mats. Making them isn't an issue but finding the sea grass, long Timothy grass, willow twigs, raffia, etc, is! Does anyone know where I can buy these supplies? Of course they should all be chemical-free. Thanks!

Hi all! Brie and I are doing very well. She's letting me groom her and everything. I've been giving her more pellets so its become a pretty low value treat. I know buns under 4 months can't have greens, but what about the dried bananas, strawberries, cranberries, and bananas? She's responding...

Ok, so Brie just jumped on top of me and the laptop and erased everything I typed. I guess she didn't want me saying bad things about her! :bunnydance: You can't stop me, Brie. So the boyfriend and I have been sick with the flu, and during that time, Brie found her way on to our bed. You'd...

Just in case... I've had Brie since about the 13th of October. I have never seen her sleep as much as she did today. I left her enclosure doors open and she still decided to sleep in. And that's after sleeping pretty heavily for a while in the shelf under the fish tank. I'm probably just...

I can't seem to get a consensus with all my reading. Brie is two months old. Unlimited supply of pellets, or no? She has unlimited Timothy hay for sure, but what about pellets? I don't want her to stop eating hay in favor of the pelletized food, but she's a baby so am I starving her of key...

Hello all. Completely new to the whole bunny thing, but Brie and I seem to be bonding well. There's only one thing that really bothers me. She likes to nip. I've read elsewhere that since she's only about two months old she will try to nip everything and if she sees me as "mommy" she will try...
