Where are you Chel? We're in Columbus.

Love the pattern, Drunken Bunny! You guys give great advice. I think we'll try some carpet AND the mats for our buns. I think they will enjoy the carpet in their cages for some extra comfort, and something to tug. We provide them with edible tiki huts made out of hay and the chew-alfalfa...

Thanks, Kellyjade. We've had no problems with the buns actually eating the carpet - it's more of a paranoia we have. They don't seem to pull it and sit there chewing, it's more a dig, tug and run thing but I didn't know how many little individual carpet fibers are actually being ingested...

EDIT: I just answered my own question... nevermind!

We are well aware that digging, chewing and pulling is a bunny’s natural instinct and mannerism. We were also told to not stop our lionheads from chewing, digging and pulling but to provide them with something they can chew, dig and pull on otherwise. We’ve done that and it’s not working...

By the way, I'm aware that they change someone in color, length and texture as they get older, but we didn't expect this much of a change. I guess it may depend on the bunnies' genes, too.

Is it normal for lionheads, or any other rabbit, to change length of fur and color? That is one thing I've not come across in books or heard/seen anyone else discuss yet. Our lionheads, Moses and General Snarf Lee have changed tremendously since we first got them. Moses bear is growing much...

This thread has actually been a big help to me as well. I logging onto my computer with the intent to post a new thread asking for help about a change in our bunnies' behavior. Our bunny brothers are 8 months old now, almost 9 months. The vet fixed them at 5 months. They got along fine until...

Oh, Peg, your post brought tears to my eyes. RIP New Hope. You know he's in a much better place, already making another little bunny lover happy. I feel your pain... *hugs*

Hi Bunnicula (great name, by the way!). Your story was more than helpful to me and you are right in that we should do what's best for the bunnies, not the humans! I can't not try to see if they'll rebond first, hopefully without the severe wounds you dealt with when you tried to rebond yours...

Awww.. I'm so sorry for your loss. :(

Thanks, Jess! Photos have been posted in the other forum within the lionhead thread, but here are my boys anyway. Moses is the brown, General Snarf Lee is the charcoal.

Thanks, Senior. When we took them to the vet to get neutered she showes us how to clip them. We bought good smaller clippers and tried ourselves at home a few times but we were so afraid of hurting them. Your ideas about the car rides are great. We're going to get to that tonight and hope for...

She's a precious bunny, Marissa!

That's actually quite helpful, Pipp. I thought about what you said but none of it falls into our scenario, like new pets or people in the mix. I'm so baffled at what would have made them change so quickly. You mentioned the bunny ball is actually worse than them "tussling"? We've had so many...

Thanks, Peg! I posted some photos of our lionhead furbabies in your lionheads photo thread. That was right after we got them. They're both twice as big now, but look exactly the same. I love our little guys.
