I’m very sorry for your loss

Greetings, I’m going to grow some Kentucky Bluegrass to complement Ted’s diet of Timothy hay + veggies. I tried doing a search for rabbit-safe fertilizer to keep the grass growing, but the results gave conflicting answers. Does anyone have an informed opinion about which fertilizer is safe...

We bought our special viewing glasses at the grocery store. Hopefully it isn’t too cloudy here next Saturday morning. https://www.greatamericaneclipse.com/october-14-2023 https://science.nasa.gov/eclipses/future-eclipses/eclipse-2023/where-when/

I’m glad that Artemis is doing better now!

I brush Ted once or twice every day. I’ve saved his fur from the last 10 days of brushing, just to see how much he actually sheds . It‘s a big ol’ hairball! It’s so much better to pull the loose fur off of him, before he grooms himself and gets it in his gut. :) @allenstacy74 i hope...

YES……life is better with a rabbit!

Great mugs, all of them very amusing

Anyone else care to share their favorite mug?

I got this one for my partner last year

I can’t remember when I got this mug, it was at least thirty years ago. I’ve been using it for my coffee every almost every day. It still works good 😆

No worries, the clarification was helpful

yes my brush has the ball tips also here’s another pic so maybe you can see it better

I brush Ted on a regular basis. He loves it, and comes running when he sees me holding the brush. I like it too, it’s a good bonding exercise. Also there is a financial incentive to brushing him. I spent $7000 last year to have a hairball surgically removed from his gut. Would like...

I’m not an expert on these traps, but I would guess that they are pretty safe. When the rabbit goes for the food he steps on a plate that triggers the door closed, on the other side of the cage. So I wasn’t worried that the rabbit would be injured. However I was a little concerned that...

I caught my rabbit using a trap. I just put food inside and waited for him to go inside, then the door springs shut. You don’t necessarily have to buy a trap, if you have a local animal control or cat rescue organization nearby, they may have a trap that you can borrow. Good luck!

FYI I got a fence system via Amazon at the beginning of 2023. It works well, and Ted doesn’t try to chew it at all. I bought 24 panels, but you can buy them in multiples of 8, whatever you need. Each panel is 32”x32” and you can configure it anyway you want. It’s on sale now during...

I think any rabbit can get hair balls . So that’s why I posted about Ted’s problem, to share my experience and pass along the importance of brushing rabbits to remove loose fur. BTW Those areas that you mentioned are very scenic, nice places to live. I am in the process of trying to sell...

@JBun @marilynpearson237 thanks, Ted is almost back to normal now. yes, we are lucky to have such a great vet in our area. They have 13 vets on staff, and only deal with exotics like rabbits iguanas parrots toucans etc. they are like the Mayo Clinic for animals 😁

That’s a good idea, thanks. I think we will use a combination of both plucking and brushing to remove fur, in the future

I just had experience with this vet. They call themselves CBEAM….Center for Birds and Exotic Animals Medicine. They might be the best vet in the Seattle area, or at least in the top three.
