This is a good thread. I use a box for Dortmund, but he's a bit of a spaz and any movement in the room causes him to panic and kick his litter all over the place. A higher litter box wall or a hood is a great idea.

Just guessing I would say that your bunny isn't bonded with the other rabbits. I'm new at this whole rabbit thing but from reading on this site, I've learned that Rabbits can be territorial and there is a process to bond them to other rabbits so that they share the same space. Otherwise they...

Yeah, he is extremely unhappy with me right now. Normally his favorite time of the day is when I feed him. This morning he treated me like I was a terrifying demon who loves to torment small furry creatures and ran as quickly as he could to get away from me as I cleaned his litter box. Gave...

Hey, a couple hours ago I ordered Vietnamese food for delivery. Usually when I get pho they send too much extra basil, bean sprouts, and hot pepper, so I unthinkingly gave the left overs to Dortmund who gobbled it all down. I know that Dortmund loves green and red bell peppers, so I thought...

It is a little early but I think he is transforming into the Cadbury Bunny and is about to lay an easter cream egg.

I’m back in Iowa. Getting Dortmund back into her carrying case before I left Florida was difficult and took me close to 3 hours. He really did not want to leave my sister’s place and hid under every dresser and chair in his quest to stay. One thing I learned on this trip is that if you go to...

As long as each type of hay is healthy for your rabbit it is fine. My vet actually recommended this when I first got Dortmund. It allows the little puffball to choose the type of hay he feels like eating and provides a variety. Normally I mix second cut timothy with orchard grass and oat...

From my limited experience it means he is bonded with you and he trusts you. I think it is just standard rrabbit behavior. I’m basing this on a bunch of videos of a gorilla that had bonded with a bunny and that bunny followed the gorilla atound everywhere. And also on my Dortmund who (when he...

My sister lives in St Petersburg. But her kids have exams tomorrow so I decided to take my time and arrive after their exams are done. So right now I’m in a hotel in Gaithersburg. Essentially Dortmund has 100 miles left to travel, plus the whole way back in two weeks.

This is a bit of a shout out to my travel kennel. It takes up almost no room in my trunk. Sets up in seconds. And Dortmund loves it. Plus it would be almost impossible to coax him out from under the TV cabinet if I let him hotel free range

I might be exaggerating that last bit a little

He hates driving. I’m hold up in a hotel just outside of Atlanta and when I moved him from his cary case to his portable kennel, he thumped so hard it measured a 6.7 on the Richter scale

Dortmund does not like Tennessee at all. Nor did he like Kentucky or Illinois or Missouri. He wonders why he had to leave Iowa at all.

I’m trying to make a list of thing to bring on my drive from Iowa City Iowa to St. Petersburg Florida, and my stay there for a couple weeks. so far I have: X Pen Pet travel carrier Water bottle Travel litter box Hay Bedding Pellets Salad Greens Dried Strawberries Litter box Wooden Hiding...

I bought Dortmund a jaunty hat and bow tie off Etsy and tried to put it on him just a second ago. As soon as he saw it he ran under the bed and began thumping like he's never thumped before. Any advice?

Mostly go to sleep you silly rabbit I have to get up early.

Dortmund clacks his teeth when I scratch him in that special spot between his eyes and ears. Sometimes just a little and sometimes a lot.

Dortmund is only a few months old and he spends most of his time under my bed. I'm not sure if he sees me as some sort of rabbit eating monster who feeds him, cleans up his poop, scratches him behind his ears, and gives him strawberries. It is weird though. When he was confined in his cage...

Your second rabbit looks suspiciously like a guinea pig. Not that I judge. If you guinea pig feels it is a rabbit then it is a rabbit.
