Let me welcome you to Rabbits Online, my name is Dave and I am a moderator on the forum. So if I can be of any help please let me know. This is a terrific website for rabbits and their slaves, not only is it very active but also friendly. I am so glad youâre here and I know you will enjoy it.
Well after being a slave to a bunny you become a "super educated bunny enthusiast". These folks are the ones you want to get advice from, people who have had rabbits for years.
I would suggest adopting a rabbit from a rescue or animal shelter. You can go and look at the bunny's they have and be able to spend some time with the ones you like and find the one that is meant to be your furry master.
Rabbits can be litter box trained, it takes patience's and time. Some bunny's catch onto it quicker then others and some will do some of their business in the litter box and some in the cage. I have a flemish giant buck that is good about urinating in his litter box but pooping around the edges of the cage. I also have a french lop that will do everything in his litter box. If your bun ever does pee on your floor a little white vinegar in a spray bottle will get rid of the odor.
Everyone has a opinion on which litter to use, I use pelleted wood litter, it is really absorbent and does a great job on the odor. My rabbits eat a pelleted based diet with lots of hay and some veggies.
Good toys are baby keys, slinkies, bird toys, stuffed toilet paper tubes of hay, old phone books to shred.
Many bunny's recommend their slaves to this site so we may learn of others methods to keeping our furry masters happy.
If you everhave a sick bunny, please post in
The Infirmary and include your rabbit's age, breed and health history as well diet and output details leading up to the problem.
I have listed some links I thought you might find interesting:
*For reference the
Library section
*To brag or tell everyone about the antics of your bunny or just to talk about your day here is where to start a
Bunny Blog, you can also look back at it later and remember when you had a life before your bunny.
*Now all the bunnyâs like talk to each other when we mere slaves arenât around in the
Bunny Chat is the spot to be.
*Rabbits Online also has
regional forums , this a good way to find a vet in your area that has experience with rabbits and to find out from other nearby of good sources of rabbit supplies.
The
Let Your Hare Down section is for anything non-bunny related.
Here is a link tothat will help you and your bunny to connect,
How To Bond With Your Bunny.
Now every forum has rules and ours can be found with this link
Rabbits Online Forum Rules. This gives guidelines on what is acceptable, what is not and how we hope everyone will treat each other.
Everyone on this forum loves to see pictures of each otherâs bunnies. So if you would like to post a picture this link will help you do that,
Upload Photo's to Photo Gallery. Then in the post, you click on the "G" in the tool bar to insert your photo. Many people also use Photobucket. You just copy the img file and paste it into the post.
I am glad you have joined rabbits online and I look forward to seeing you around.
