Pancake brought everyone a lot of attitude and affection for the last two and a half years. I can hardly believe that she was almost four. She died today peacefully, if in quite a lot of pain. I don't want to discuss her condition right now. I'm exhausted, and the vet will likely be able to...

I'm wondering if any weed-n-feed products are safe for rabbits who will be nibbling on the lawn. My understanding is that some of them simply over-fertilize the weeds, so those might be okay for rabbits.

I've had Pancake and Riley for a year and a half now. I've liked the kiln dried pine pellet litter, but for the past few months, Riley's had a stuffy nose. It doesn't get worse or better really. The discharge is grey, but is infrequent. I make sure to change the litter before it becomes...

I just want to share this message I got from Rabbit R&R: http://www.rabbitrr.org/

I've found some videos or documentaries about pet rabbits, such as Equal Hopportunity (their trailer is hilarious), but I haven't been able to find anything about wild rabbits. I've even seen a documentary about oppossums, which by most standards are not nearly as fun as rabbits.

Even though I can't understand hardly a word, I wish I'd seen this before I got rabbits. http://www.youtube.com/v/aNK-lq8EHok&hl=en&fs=1 Why is it posted by "violence against the people"? No idea. I guess the video was posted by a really hard core rabbit fan. Part 2...

Riley and Pancake have been shedding for quite some time, like a month. I went to put them into their cage earlier and since Pancake was licking at her back end I figured I would, very much against her will, help her groom. I found that her hair was coming out again. I mean if I kept plucking...

Every night I go see the buns, Riley and Pancake, give them each an alfalfa chunk (it's from these compressed logs) and put them to "bed." Tonight I latched the cage (they were already in it) and got the alfalfa out and... Pancake didn't want any. WHAT?! She didn't want a pellet either. She...

https://www.msu.edu/~pavilion/events.htm I'm not sure if I'd like a rabbit show or not. It seems like the rabbits would hate going, but I'm just going off of what my rabbits would think. :) I might check it out. Too bad I missed the December 5 one since I bet it would have more specialty breeds.

Soldan's, a local pet store and supply chain, uses this product for all their small animal's litter and bedding: http://www.jpmccrumb.com/pellets.php I bought some to try it out. It doesn't smell very strong but when I leave the room I swear I can feel it in my lungs. I can't feel any oily...

For about 16 hours I tried a new feeding arrangement for Riley and Pancake. Normally their litter box has yesterday's news covered by hay. They end up eating the choice morsels and kicking the less tasty bits under them where it becomes more litter. The litter box fills with hay before the...

I'm having to type this without my right index finger because I was too "get-er-done" with riley's nail.s (I've pushed backspace 30+ times now) After 1 paw he was done but I just couldn't say "OK" and do another paw later. Now if I uncurl my finger it will bleed all over. I can't see fatty...

Spooky @ http://www.cahs-lansing.org/ He's been at the shelter in Lansing, MI for a while now, watching other bunnies come and go. When I go to the shelter I give him nose rubs and he loves it very much. Even a much more moody lop got adopted quicker than Spooky. :( On a side note, someone...

Riley has bare skin all over his belly and behind. I was grooming him and the fur basically fell out. After reading around I'm going to get some desitin to prevent rash and dry skin. Also, since the cage he shares with pancake has a rough bottom, I'm going to cover it with a layer of towels. Is...

The past week has seen a docile Riley. He hasn't mounted or attacked anyone till tonight. He nibbles at me sometimes but he's after my clothes (I think). Tonight I came home, thankfully wearing jeans instead of shorts, and when I walked by him he attacked me! It was very violent. I don't know if...

Hello Rabbiteers! Pancake used to love me, and then she loved Riley. Now she only loves Riley! To give you an idea of what I'm up against, Riley humped Pancake against her will for days, weeks even. Riley bit her head and she bled and lost hair. Yet now she LOVES Riley. Riley gets all kinds of...

Here he is after being naughty: I think it began yesterday when I decided I'd had enough of Riley peeing wherever he thought felt like a litter box. He wouldn't go just anywhere, but for instance I had a tunnel with a towel on the bottom, and apparently that was an ok wee spot for him. I...

Special Cage Edition! (Link) Here is Pancake glaring at everyone. While she's like this, attempts to get close to hear always fail, and so does red eye removal. Later that night, I herded them into their cage. Hopefully Riley will get used to peeing in there instead of wherever he happens to...

Fellow Rabbiteers, I've taken them on a few car rides, but I think they might only be working on Pancake. Afterwords, Pancake is exhausted and wants to chill and cuddle. In fact I can pick her up and she doesn't struggle. Riley still has quite a lot of energy and wants to be alone in his cave (a...
