    How do you social a cat around bunnies?

    Maybe not the correct place to ask the question under but my bunnies are used to cats. All other cats that have been near them have always been quite natural because of how they behaved with grooming them, Sleeping, cuddling and no play. I’ve never had to do anything between a cat and my...

    The finale rest for Odin

    Yesterday I had to put Odin down. Turned out there was something wrong with his teeth and he would need CT scan but the chances of surviving the CT was low and the operations was even lower. It was a big chance he would pass away during the procedure and I didn’t want his last moment to be force...

    Small wounds on the ear

    Hi I have noticed that Freja have small wounds on her ear. She have 3 small wounds (one on the tip of the ear and the 2 others are right in the middle). First I thought she had been nipped by Fenris because she’s hormonal and maybe Fenris had managed to catch Frejas ear through the mesh. I...

    How do you brush a bunny stomach without flipping them (not in trance mood)

    Hi everyone, my girl Freja is a long haired bun that need regular brushing. I wonder how you brush the stomach, back legs and tail without holding her how I’m doing. She stayed that way because I had food in my hand. She have her natural bent back, head above heart. So her back is toward my...

    Hi everyone, It seem like Toste is getting worse vision because he start to react more even though it’s still light. Before he would never react the way he do since I learned he had bad vision but now if you approach him, he can lung towards us. He will always stop when he notice it’s anyone...

    How can they translate so wrong 🤣

    I was just checking on amazon on bunny things but I think amazon missed the whole translation part. They have just opened up for swedish market. I would think a large comapny would at least check the names of the products. But I will keep on supporting the small local markets instead. Than buy...
