Static Cling?

So My bunny is building up charges and then when we touch we both get shocked, I swear she is doing it on purpose.

So how do you get rid of it on her?

That's a good question lol. Funny because I just watched the family guy episode where Peter won't take off his pajamas and runs around shocking everyone lol. I wouldn't know what to do other than get off the carpet maybe? Lol. Good luck :clover:

I used to rub a dryer sheet on my cat when she was shocking me a lot

 

[SweetPeasMom]

would dryer sheet hurt her tho?

You need more humidity in the air. Get a humidifier & your problem will go away.

I would think the chemicals in dryer sheets might not be good for rabbits. You could run a damp hand over her fur. I wear slippers, so I will sometimes build up a charge in the house. I will just touch the cage bars or something metal before I touch my rabbtits, so I don't shock them, which I'm sure they don't like at all.

It's been super dry here too. My buns' fur is standing up straight as soon as my hand gets close. Hopefully this recent rain will help.

yeah, I dunno if a dryer sheet's the "right" way to go... just saying, it worked like a charm on the kitty and never caused her any problems (and she licked herself 24/7, I swear). I was desperate to make the shocks stop and figured if it was ok for her to sleep on clothes and blankets that had been dried with the dryer sheet, it should be fine to rub it on her (I just lightly ran it down her a time or two)
