Jeff38002: Thank you for admitting you hadn't bothered to read the ingredient list for Critical Care before posting.

Congratulations on a successful journey!

Last October, as I prepared to move cross-country from California to New York, I learned that I would not be able to bring my large cat on an airplane and also that there were no flights from Chicago or anywhere east of there that would be bring me within 5 driving hours to my destination...

When I had the same problem with one of my lovelies, I purchased cheap but relatively durable throw rugs from Walmart - 3' x 5' for $20 and 5' x 7' for $50. I would avoid shag carpets. Depending on your rabbit's nature, it may or may not begin to "attack" rugs by shredding them, but it should...

I think it is also advisable, when "bathing" a rabbit in a tub or large basin, to fill it first with water to the desired level before placing the rabbit in it. Otherwise, one risks a panicked reaction to a perceived threat of drowning. If this incorrect, I hope someone here will correct me.

My first ever rabbit Piper, a few months after I adopted her, stunned me with a wonderful display of intelligence one day. I awoke from sleep on my futon to see her staring at me. Once she had my attention, she ran around the futon to where my clear plastic water bottle lay beside it. She...

She is much more picky in general than my other rabbit. She will eat dandelion greens, although it's hardly a favorite of hers. I've found it to be a challenge in the past to provide enough greens low in oxylates, but the listing at the House Rabbit Society is ever-changing, as they seem to...

I have two rabbits and one devours romaine but the other won't touch it. They've been that way for 8-9 years now. It's the same with other varieties of lettuce. Don't fret, just be willing to experiment by providing different kinds of produce. Soon, you will no doubt develop a clear...

WARNING: there is a sinister darkness to this historical explication, so beware if you do not wish to read some potentially upsetting content. Spent a month in Japan during the summer of 1973, visiting Tokyo, Nara, Kyoto and Osaka. It was an amazing experience, but it was before I became a...

I have been sharing my shikibuton with my roommate (pictued in my avatar) for nine years. Not surprisingly, I have purchased many many replacement bedsheets!

Congrats on your litter! I also have a female rabbit named "Velvet." Her photo serves as my avatar here.

Organic dandelion leaves are a major component of the diet of my two rabbits. Since both of my lovelies are a bit diffident with respect to other salad greens, they provide a relatively low oxalate level for them, unlike other staples such as kale, broccoli, rabe and collard greens. Here in...

I too rely on Oxbow's 90 oz. bags of timothy hay. My complaint about them is that the quality and cut of the hay varies wildly from bag to bag and it's impossible to tell what is inside the bag until you open and examine it. I've had the same issue with other brands as well. Both of my...

I first viewed "Harvey" when I was a kid. Saw it again a few years ago and still enjoyed it immensely. Plus, it has Jimmy Stewart in one of his more unconventional roles. If you're a fan of futuristic television, Season 4 of "Westworld" debuts this weekend. Is it too much to hope for a giant...

Why? Because all parents are omniscient? Gimme a break...and if the girl and her parents cannot afford emergency treatment for an injured rabbit, she shouldn't have that pet.

Here's a fun fact: the seeds of many varieties of morning glory plants contain a psychoactive substance similar to LSD-25! This is not a consideration for rabbits eating leaves or flowers from this plant. Also, the leaves and stalks (on choy) are frequently consumed in various Chinese...

At the risk of sounding like Debbie Downer, it's impossible to know if the second rabbit will bond with Teddy. I believe the most prudent approach would be to acquire the second rabbit based on the assumption that they may well have to live separate lives, which surely will result in additional...

We may be (kind of) neighbors soon, as I'm moving to Rochester in 2-3 months..

I reside in the Sierra foothills in Northern California, and I sometimes obtain large bags of locally sourced hay for a huge discount, but the quality and variety (grass vs. straw) of hay varies wildly. Most of the hay I feed my two lovelies is from the Oxbow 96 oz. bags. They are a bit...

Actually, Catlyn, a pomegranate and a grenade are two different things (lol):
