My poor bunny. I have noticed since she got spayed a few months ago that she is more urine stained. I have washed her lower area but I just do not know what to do. I am afraid the urine might be burning her skin. Her litter pan is the mesh over the wood pellets. She sometimes pulls her hay down...

I have been taking my rabbits to Dr. Tegan at Animal Doctors in West Des Moines, Iowa. The rabbit rescue that is well known in our area recommends Animal Doctors. I really like Dr. Tegan, he is extremely down to earth, kind and even seems to remember a bit about my rabbits. I take my other pets...

My rabbit Emmy is 4 months old. This morning I got an email that her mom was available who is 4 so I impromptu said I would take her. Do you think they will remember each other or not have a clue?

In my state as far as I can tell there are no obvious breeders who breed angora rabbits unless they are 4-H kids. A friend of mine from another state raises Angora rabbits and also uses the fur for making fabric items. I know nothing about that. I am just slightly interested in learning more...

I had a Flemish Rabbit I had 2 years and went to the only vet I know who is recommended as being knowledgeable in the care of rabbits. I took my new rabbit for her initial visit and the cost was 2 1/2 times what it was with my previous rabbit a year ago. I had noticed nail trims went up a lot...

We only brought home 1 rabbit. It didn’t have a littermate available. The rabbit is sweet but I am having a hard time bonding with it myself. I “loved” my rabbit before almost from the start. Any tips on helping the humans?

I believe we only have 1 rabbit rescue in our state. There might be more. The one local is not an actual place. The rabbits are in foster homes. In my opinion they are a bit strict with rules when it comes allowing the bunnies to be adopted out. I understand rules and guidelines are in place...

Well I found an adult rabbit needed a new home. It has lived in a wire crate. Is it possible to teach it to be litter trained or to free roam?

I have looked at bunnies needing a home but most were not allowed to go to a home with kids or other animals. I contacted a rescue that had a pair and they were adopted and she had another pair that would work but never sent paperwork. So I have a bunny on reserve to be picked up next month. I...

Saturday Lucy passed away. She was in and out of the house, laying on the air conditioner airflow. When I think about it she was not as hungry as she typically was such as she wasn't as interested in foods she usually gobbled up but she was still eating. My 13 year old and 8 year old found her...

Well we likely will be transitioning to a smaller home for awhile while we sell and/or before we buy. We might be in an apartment or townhome. Right now my bunny has a long crate that is 5 or 6 feet long which takes up a lot of space. It has not held up well unfortunately. She is a bigger bunny...

My husband got me a beagle pup from a rescue. It was a fairly impulsive thing we did. We were on a waiting list for an hour and decided yes before adopting. He wasn't sure it was a good idea. I read that they could live together in Peace and many have.....so we did. I had been in the hospital...

I was active last year. This year has been and is tough. I have missed reading bunny posts. I still have my Lucy. No problems. She is healthy and has rabbit attitude.

We have had Lucy for over a year and are having our 4th big housing change for her. Our first bunny house was too small and she would pee off the side. The next choice was a very large dog kennel. It was an eye sore and too big. The next choice was a wooden cover over her litter with an X pen at...

Lately Lucy has been more territorial and sometimes aggressive. This morning I was cleaning her litter and she was standing up and leaning on my back. Then she was lightly biting my toes. Later today she hopped up on the couch and was tearing it up (already torn up). A couple weeks ago my...

Lucy is mostly litter trained. She ocassionally puts her poop buy her litter or in a closet. Anyway her area is a dog crate and it I'd an eyesore. I was thinking about getting a covered kitty pan and making a wooden box table to put over it that has a small box "stair" and padding it so she can...

I had surgery today and am really tired. My bunny who weighs 18lbs ate a bite of hotdog that didn't get swept up. Do I need to stay up and watch her? I am not sure how serious it is.

I have a larger breed rabbit. She has her area in our large dining room. She currently has the 2nd largest dog crate and we use an x-pen attached to the crate and give her a long area to play in. We do not have a lot of space to put our rabbits. We may be switching things around a bit. I would...

Lucy has a birthday this week, my son does too...same day actually. I told the kids we are not celebrating Lucy's birthday the same day as Jacob. I would probably get Lucy strawberries as it is one of her favorite fruits or cranberries if they have them for sale. Sing her a song and people...
