I've said this before (I think), but when I goto college next fall, I'm bringing Butter with me, as the apartmentsthe College houses students in (And the College rules) allows smallcaged animals..... This isn't an issue..
But Butter is an outside rabbit, and has been all his life. I've also kept his hay outside.
The problem is.....I'm allergic to hay, and I'm afraid that having hayin a small apartment with me inside would turn out verybadly.
I don't have a problem with the pellets I give him, even though theyhave hay in them, because there's not.....random fluffy hay bits/dustflying in the air everywhere.
Is it possible for Butter to stay healthy if I just feed him the pellets, or does he ABSOLUTELY need the hay?
Maybe substitution with veggies is possible?
I just don't want him to be unhealthy because I'm allergic to hay......
If he really REALLY needs it, I can visit the doctor and experimentwith different allergy medication, but that kind of thing is expensiveand I'd like it to be a last option....
(But not THE last option. I'm definitely still taking Butterwith me, no matter what. I won't leave my baby all alone withmy parents, one of which is allergic to him and won't even pet him :? )
