i haven't noticed him straining to do his business. i didn't know their urine could be naturally red. there were no clots or strings of blood, it just looked like a splotch of red with the yellow. i clean his cage each day and have only seen this once. the fact that he's not using his litterbox...

basically what the description says. dexter is a 6 year old rabbit, i only got him in the fall from a person that could not keep him due to personal declining health. i have since learned that this person did not know as much as she thought she did about caring for bunnies. i have since had...

yeah, i think he's happy doing what he's doing otherwise he wouldn't be doing it. but i miss him coming over to see what i'm up to and chilling on the couch with me. i figured there would be some temperament change but i guess i just wasn't expecting this. i kinda miss the old dexter, though...

so dexter still has the same cage but he has been neutered and is now MUCH better about the litter box. at least for pee anyway. the pooping outside of the litter box has decreased but still isn't perfect. he seems less grumpy in general and is much more active then before (inside the cage...

wouldn't the tiles make the flooring slippery? and i've used them with rats, the urine will get underneath between the small cracks then you have to throw it out due to smell, has anyone had this issue when using the tile with bunnies? i will certainly look into putting the cage on its side as...

a crock is esstenially a heavy bowl and most hook to the cage, if i'm not mistaken in my terminology. if they like being destructive then the homemade ones would probably be best.i use them for my rats from time to time. essentially its a scrap of fabric with a bunch of goodies folded in then...

i'm glad this is a viable cage! now i just need to get it from my mother.... so to some up the alterations i need to make and to consider: i need to cover and move shelves so that dexter can jump to them. how many do you think i should leave in there? perhaps just the larger ones (there's a...

oh, that's a picture from 2 years ago when i first got it was starting to set it up for rats. i think the rats have actually since eaten those hammocks. but why no hammocks? i've seen pictures on this site with rabbits using them. are they bad for bunnies or do they just generally not use...

does it make a difference that dexter is only a 3lb dwarf? if the cage really is too small then i won't use it of course but i thought i had something here...! *sighs* i guess its back to the drawing board then... so close....

i can move the levels around and bit and take the ramps completely out and i could probably attach carpets to the levels with some velcro as well to make the footing more secure. or would the velco not be strong enough when a rabbit jumps to keep the carpet in place? as for turning it on its...

shoot, i thought i had fixed the picture. i can see it, i wonder how i could fix it... here, i'll try this, maybe one of them will work... (all following images are the same so if you can't see one but can see another, you're not missing anything) does that work for anyone? well i was...

some of you may remember this cage in my introduction thread. i was originally planning on using it for my rats but its going to take some modifcation before it would be suitable for them and they already have a cage that isn't too bad anyway. so i got to thinking, maybe using it for dexter...

"the brand of pellets i'm guessing isn't the best, i got it at walmart. its a 10kg bag of topcorp rabit food. i fill his bowl and when its empty (about every other day) i fill it back up again. Yup, probably horrible. It is the "Small World" food? You want a pellet with no colored bits in it."...

thank you everyone that replied. i think dexter is really cute too. and we're getting to know each other better. i did that head toss thing to show i was happy and he did it back! it was so cool!! undergunfire: sorry for replying back so late. the holidays was anything but relaxing. which i...

thank you for all the information and fast replies. i will keep the NIC cages in mind but i am still going to keep looking for other alternatives. the big thing i have against the NIC cages is my fear that minion or dexter or maybe even sesshoumaru would knock the cage over and that it doesn't...

thank you for the invite. the place looks really nice. i was skimming through the bunny 101 before i made this post and plan to look more thoroughly though it later, (i'm getting ready for bed for the night after this post). unfortunately the NIC cages are not a good fit for me. with the cats...

hello, i'm raven and my new bunny that i sort of inherited is dexter. i know he's a he, a dwarf, about six years old and he looks kinda like a siamese cat with the markings he has but that's about it. i've been reading about rabbits, trying to lean more about them to be the best rabbit mom i can...
