    Desperately need help child-proofing! Having a really hard time

    Wow this is great advice. When he tests my no, it is so frustrating and it seems like he does it more and more. Sometimes it's difficult to find a balance because every parenting "guru" these days seems to promote "gentle parenting" which in my case manifests as a free for all. I was actually...

    Remy is acting off- strange symptoms. Panicking.

    Hey! Sorry I never answered this! He's awesome. Just turned three and thriving :) Although, I have a toddler now and balancing the two has not been fun. Edit: A human toddler lol. 3 Year old bunny and 18 month old boy

    Desperately need help child-proofing! Having a really hard time

    We've had our bunny Remy for 3 years and up until we had our son 18 months ago, it's been a breeze. He was a spoiled fluff. However, since my son was born, Remy has had to be in his pen a lot more for his own safety. For the past few months, my son has been shaking the cage, banging on it...

    Remy is acting off- strange symptoms. Panicking.

    Sorry typo- pooping. We brought him to the vet. Just dropped him off. Hopefully this will be nothing but I wanted him monitored overnight. Why am I so neurotic. This is going to cost $$$ :(

    Remy is acting off- strange symptoms. Panicking.

    Haven’t been on the forum for a little while so hi everyone! Hope you’re all doing well. Remy is having some strange symptoms. He seemed fine today. But this evening, he began flopping and pooping where he was flopped. He seems a little lethargic and is randomly flopping in places he hasn’t...

    How are his hocks looking? (Photo)

    Aww thanks!! Yup, he’s a youngster. Only 1 years old. Very active little guy especially because we’re home now so we keep his pen open the whole day.

    How are his hocks looking? (Photo)

    We’ve tried it all. We used to have fleece but switched it for a vinyl mat over layers of fleece bc we were advised that the fleece might be doing it. We have synthetic carpet in the room he roams in and wood in the rest of the apartment. He doesn’t often venture out of the living room but when...

    How are his hocks looking? (Photo)

    I noticed today that Remy's hocks are looming more sore than usual. He is prone to sore hocks (Mini rex) and we monitor them. We had him watched at a friend this weekend but when I picked him up and brought him home, I noticed them when he flopped. Should I be overly concerned? My vet has been...

    Hay in the litter box vs. Out of the litter box

    I’d like to hear everyone’s experiences/opinions about keeping hay either in a bun’s litter box or separate. I’m under the impression that most people put hay in the litter box but I’ve recently been hearing success putting it out of it. My bunny pees on his hay and ends up not eating it when...

    Need tips on raising a baby bunny asap!!

    After reading this thread, I really want to address something. Breeding without access to a rabbit savvy vet seems a bit irresponsible. When our bunny was acting off, the first thing the vet did is run a series of tests. This can get pricey but in order to find an internal problem in any...

    Rabbit flooring

    I use a layer of vinyl that I got from a fabric store with a layer of fleece. This set up is temporary for me though since my bunny is prone to sore hocks and this flooring is not soft enough for him. But if that’s not an issue, vinyl fabric is really good and easy to clean. I get mine from...

    Homemade hay cakes/cubes

    You can make treats by maybe using banana, oats, the hay and then baking it. I was literally just researching this. Try Pinterest. They have so many recipes for homemade bunny treats using the hay leftovers.

    I forgot to put water in his pen overnight...

    Very smart! I’m usually really good about this though. I’ve never ever forgotten. Hopefully this will be a one time thing

    I forgot to put water in his pen overnight...

    I feel so guilty. We went away for the weekend and when we got to our destination (after a 2 hour drive), I set up Remy’s travel pen. It was 1 AM and I was super tired and forgot to put a water bowl in. I only noticed at around 9 AM the next day. That means he went almost 12 hours without water...

    My bunnies mated secretly!

    This seems to be a common issue on this forum. Obviously what’s done is done and I believe you’re taking the proper steps. For the future, I think everyone should accept the fact that an unneutered buck and doe living under the same roof may just find their way to each other lol.

    Rabbit spay booked, super nervous mum!

    Aww! What a cutie! If you look back at my really early threads, I probably had about 4 panic attacks before my bun got neutered. I’m neurotic so it makes sense. As long as you have a vet that tells you your bunny should be eating before surgery, is rabbit savvy, and good resources for...

    Waterproof Puzzle Mats (need flooring ideas)

    found this video. im going to try something along these lines. I'm a sucker for nice decorating so I try to keep the enclosure as aesthetically pleasing as possible.

    Where to buy wholesale/cheap material for making rabbit toys

    I think I'm going to go the route of the grass and chew mats. I'm in middle of a pen remodel. Trying out new flooring, larger space. Successful toys for my rabbit have been willow balls, applewood sticks (LOVES), baby cups and keys, balsa blocks, cardboard (but only when we hold it so there's...
