    Why doesn't anyone sell an attractive, functional rabbit cage?

    Wow, some great ideas there... I definitely see we'd have to make our own. Thanks!

    Why doesn't anyone sell an attractive, functional rabbit cage?

    I've seen the NIC ones.. I actually bought the components, but ended up turning it into shelving in a closet instead as my husband didn't like it.. Plus, my rabbits are pretty darn heavy, I was kinda nervous about how well the NIC ones would stay together with two humongous rabbits hopping...

    Why doesn't anyone sell an attractive, functional rabbit cage?

    I'm talking about something pretty, like a parrot cage and big enough for two californians.. Something multileveled and leakproof.. It's the one thing my husband doesn't like about the rabbits, the way their cage looks. we really want to move them to the living room so we can enjoy them a...

    Erie County SPCA Bunny Overflow

    They don't usually foster out rabbits. They haveenough of a setup usually to have most of them available to view at theshelter. Though, I suppose they would if they were out of space.

    Possibly adding another bunny?

    Me and my husband got our two girl bunniesprobably 3 months ago now. I'd always wanted a Californian, and therewas one at the shelter by my inlaws, along with a NZ Black that she wasbonded to. They are both spayed females and pretty much get alonggreat. They're around a year old. Here's where it...

    What should I do with cage of deceased rabbit?

    It's very hard to find a good rabbit vet. Mostvets don't really know enough about them to be too useful. Though, theycan often refer you to one more experienced and can handle emergencieslike intestinal blockages. I'm looking around for a better vet in myarea as well. I think the house rabbit...

    What should I do with cage of deceased rabbit?

    Did your vet test for Pastuerella? That's a veryvery common disease in rabbits. While it may not affect them much whileyoung, it certainly seemed to shorten the lifespan in my bunnies. Ifit's pastuerella, then just adopt another one that already has it.Though, that shouldn't affect your cats. If...

    Bunnies boycotting timothy-based pellets...

    Alrighty, I got my bunnies almost a month agonow and they came with some of the food the shelter had been feedingthem. I've been trying to gradually get them onto Kaytee Timothy.. Theyso far don't seem to like it at all. They were previously on an Alfalfabased Petsmart brand. Do most rabbits not...

    What should I do with cage of deceased rabbit?

    Is the cage all wire? Are there any woodenpieces? If it is all-wire or wire and plastic then you should be ableto disinfect it. Though, I've heard you can't use bleach withgalvanized wire. There are other disinfecting agents that shelters andkennels use. There's quite a few online catalogues...

    I showed Holland Lops and English Angora... Iwanted to start into English Lops, and had gotten my first one when wehad a bad outbreak of pastuerellosis.. That was enough forme.. I mean, that's something you deal with when you show, and theoccasional case wasn't a big deal.. But, I ended up with...

    I remembered pine and cedar were bad. I did putaspen in there.. Is that safe? I kinda gambled on the timothy versusalfalfa. Couldn't remember which, but, at least by a stroke of luck Ibought timothy. I haven't put a litter box in there yet. They didn'thave one at the shelter, so, I figured I'd...

    Well, I was trying to come up with a female duoto name them after. There's hardly any female duos! Anyhow, they justgot named Mary-Kate and Ashley. Not because I'm fans of them, it justseemed funny to name two big bunnies who love to eat after the olsentwins.. The Cali is Mary-Kate and the NZ is...

    What breed of rabbit do you have and why?

    I used to raise and show Holland Lops andEnglish Angoras. Hollands have a unique personality. Kinda like a toneddown Netherland Dwarf. Playful, inquisitive, fairly docile, but saucyat the same time. They're kinda fussy about being held, but, will jumpinto your lap on their terms. Though, I never...

    Bun-Bun - Behavioral Problems?

    Rabbits have different personalities from oneindividual to another, like cats and dogs do. Some like to be pickedup, some don't. My two buns were raised together in the same cage withthe same people looking after them. One is outgoing and playful butdoesn't like to be held. The other is more...

    They were bonded at the Humane Society. Theywere part of a neglect seizure with 12 other rabbits. These two wereabout 7-8 weeks old when the shelter got them. Unfortunately, thereisn't too much demand for large breed pet rabbits, so my two were there7 months before I adopted them. They are...
