He looks like a Zuko to me! Maybe that's just my bias with Avatar though :)

I would agree with @JBun , my rabbit is free roam, yet he spends a good portion of his day in basically 2 locations near his food, water, and litter box, where he flops over a lot. It's basically a comfort zone where they know they can access what they need and then he ventures out and binky's...

Welcome to the forum! Your rabbits are adorable!

Hi everyone! My rabbit Dr. Cheese seems to be exhibiting a lot of territorial behavior ever since I got him approx 2 years ago (he's 3). These behaviors all seem to be revolving around me as he doesn't show these behaviors towards my boyfriend who also lives with us. I assume that's because I'm...

Yes, but it's primarily for the harder to reach spots as there's a lot of furniture around his litter box area

Hi everyone! I am looking for a handheld vacuum for the miscellaneous hay/poops that linger around Dr. Cheese's litterbox and eating area, does anyone have a recommendation of one that works well for them? Please include a link and/or model information. Thanks in advance!

True! Specifically blue whales and manatees I adore! The person below me is allergic to hay

Thank you! As for replacing the bedding, is it similar with hay/food swaps to slowly adapt over? I've always used the same bedding so that's one thing I would question. I'm assuming you would leave part of the old bedding so their scent is still there, maybe 50/50 to start? Then 75/50 until...

Thank you! Do you happen to have a link to one that you would recommend?

If your rabbit is licking you, it's most likely a sign of affection. Rabbits generally don't require salt licks unless they have an all hay diet since their pellets do have sodium already per my vet's advice. Generally they lick as a form of grooming which is a sign they have a lot of trust and...

I did have my rabbit show food aggression in the past when I first adopted him, but mainly with individuals he isn't as familiar with or if he is in an unfamiliar environment. He's never shown this kind of aggression to myself or my boyfriend (other than accidental nips trying to get to a...

Hi everyone! I've been using Carefresh natural and Carefresh white bedding since I had my first rabbit, and am now with my second who is about 2.5 years old. The Carefresh bedding has always been great for my previous rabbit healthwise which is my primary concern, but Dr. Cheese my current...

Aside from that, I adopted Dr. Cheese when he was 1 and many shelters will actually cover the neutering/spaying in their adoption fee which is generally cheaper than paying for it yourself. Always better to help a bun in need when you can :)

I may elaborate a bit because I feel very strongly that you did everything you could from the perspective of a 2 time rabbit owner that experienced similar experiences, so I apologize in advance for my lengthiness. To start, I am so sorry... I know it is such a hard decision to make as I had to...

I realize that this may be an older thread, but I do think it is worth mentioning there wasn't clarification to the "dry" vs "water filled" bath tub so I think it's definitely good there be specification on that as many people don't realize this. In addition, in case anyone new to owning rabbits...

We'd love to see a picture of her and help decipher her breed/breed mix! Welcome to the forum!

@JBun gave awesome tips for the physical checks as usual :). In addition to this, based off of my behavioral experience, bunnies have moods just like people. Some days they may be lazier than others. Dr. Cheese alternates between binkying all over the place and terrorizing my home with energy to...

Yes I have had a lot of experiences particularly with Dr. Cheese with marking problems despite being neutered. As long as you clean the area with a proper pet friendly spray they usually catch on pretty quick! I always panic to this day when he has an accident, but it has always been related to...

Welcome to the forum! It's a great place to learn how to be the best care giver to your buns without judgement!

That is a good first step, I would say with urine related concerns, the main focus is definitely monitoring the water level and peeing habits. In terms of a UTI, a bunny will be leaky a bit rather than just peeing in a random area. If you see urine trails that is a good sign of a UTI, but if she...
