    Laundry question

    A few months ago I bought a plush holland lop toy and put it into Dortmund’s space. At first Dortmund hated it. He spent two whole days biting it and throwing it around. Then he spent a couple days having sex with it (he is neutered). But then he fell in love with it. Even after five or six...

    Last minute bonding advice

    A month ago, I bought my little guy Dortmund, a plush rabbit toy on a whim. I figured he would tear it up like he did the plush whale I got him a year ago, indeed the first day he had it, he bit it a lot, threw it down to the bottom level of his hutch, and spent a good 18 hours straight having...

    Bonding question

    An online friend of mine got two bunnies in November. The breeder told her they were both females. Alas, the Breeder was wrong and the female had a litter in mid January. She got the male neutered about 10 days ago, and thought she had been keeping them separate, but alas she just had another...

    How much critical care do I give

    My little guy was acting a bit under the weather and hadn’t eaten a lot all day, so I mixed up some critical care solution and put some in a syringe and fed him one syringe worth. Is this enough? Or should I nab him again and force more down? He’s been more active since I gave him his medicine.

    Dortmund does not like other Rabbits

    I took dortmund to the SPCA to see if I could find him a little friend. They let him play with a bunch of rabbits and the one thing I can say is that Dortmund will be alone forever. Deapite the fact that he has been neutered, evey rabbit they put in front of him, he bit and tried to mount. I...

    Poops about half size

    Was cleaning out Dortmund’s litter box this morning and his poops were about half the size they normally are. Is this something to worry about?

    Oddly picky about hay

    My little Dortmund is picky about his hay. If I give it to him where he normally eats, he ignores it. Won’t even touch it. And begs for better tasting snacks. But if I hide an unopened box of hay under a table, within hours of my hiding it, he will have started gnawing a hole in the side of...

    Rabbits and the cold...

    When I first got my little guy I read somewhere that Rabbits like the cold, that they prefer it to hot, and that too hot is dangerous and can kill them. I only keep Dortmund in my bedroom, so it isn’t cold like it would be outside. Hell, I sleep in my bedroom and I don’t like the cold...

    Rabbits and RVs

    Has anybody taken an extended RV road trip with a Rabbit? Not sure how well it would work given how terrified my rabbit Dortmund hates to drive.

    Are humans acceptable food for rabbits?

    SoI was sleeping last night, when I suddenly woke up to a firm pinch on my butt cheek. Apparently Dortmund had hopped onto my bed an in some sort oF hunger, had bitten my bum. he’s never bitten me before. i’m pretty sure I don’t taste good. And while I am probably to hairy in general, in no...

    Rabbit needs to see me feed him

    I was just wondering if anybody else has this issue. Dortmund needs to physically see me feed him in order for him to believe I’ve given him food. The little guy likes to wake up around 4:30 in the morning and eat. His method of telling me he wants num nums is to do zoomies around my bed...

    Cyclospora

    I just got an email from the grocery store saying that the cabbage I bought for Dortmund on Saturday is being recalled for Cyclospora. I’ve already fed him from this apparently tainted cabbage. How worried should I be. Does this virus even affect rabbits — i.e. some viruses are species...

    Questions about having a second rabbit

    I have a few questions about maybe getting a friend for Dortmund 1) Would I need a second Litter Box 2) Petting them -- Do they have individual times they like being petted or would it be a constant battle for my available hands? 3) Skittishness - Dortmund hides under the bed 98% of the time...

    How long alone?

    I am planning to drive up to the cottage some time in the next couple of days to drop off a TV (my bedroom TV since Dortmund keeps eating the power cord no matter how much I rabbit proof it). I was going to leave Dortmund at home and just drive there and drive back. if I leave the little guy...

    Substance at bottom of litter box

    I clean Dortmund's litter box every three days. This morning when I emptied it out the entire bottom of Dortmund's pan was covered in a clear jelly like substance. It was extremely wet and smelled horrible. The only difference in his diet that I can think of is that he started turning up his...

    Anybody else with a picky rabbit?

    Dortmund is an extremely picky eater. He does not like cucumbers, thyme, parsley, celery, bokchoy, pumpkin, sun dried tomatoes, or raspberries. I won’t include the time I gave him a jalapeño by accident, because I should have known better. There may be other things he doesn’t like, but I...

    Is there a way to lower rabbit fear?

    These days dortmund hides like 90% of the day. He only comes out when he is hungry or when he is lonely and wants to cuddle. A couple of days ago I bought a kind of enclosed area to put his litter box in and now when he wants eat, he dashes in, grabs something green and leafy and then runs...
