Do not smack him on the head with the broom, rabbit's are prey animals and do not respond to negative physical punishment. It will only teach him to be fearful. It can be challenging to get already spayed/neutered territorial rabbits to change their ways. A few things you can try: Start petting...

What a gorgeous ball python! :hearts The name Jade fits her well. Congrats! :)

Welcome back, Cait! :grouphug Also, Welcome to California!!! ;) :D

No worries, your bunnies are fine. Rabbits tolerate cold weather much better than warm. With their fur coat and naturally warmer body temperature they are practically made for chilly temperatures. I've read they can tolerate temperatures in the 30's *F and even below that, so long as they are...

My best friend has two unaltered male rabbits bonded together. They are best buds! They sometimes hump each other but show no aggression. This isn't the norm though, and any bonding attempts would need be done very carefully and slowly.

All of our animals get vet care, doesn't matter what species they are. From our rabbits, to our cats, to our rats, and gecko. Euthanizing alone for a pet rat usually costs around $40.00, in my opinion people need to be prepared to -at the very least- cover euthanasia costs if the animal becomes...

I'm so very sorry for your loss of Buttercup. You are such a dedicated mom, I know he lived a wonderful life in your care. Binky free pretty boy :pink iris:

Just wanted to update: The admin of Rabbit Addict removed the thread that turned into a "bash RO" fest and apologized. Hopefully there can be peace between the two forums and we can work together to further educate and help rabbits. It's good for breeders to have an outlet for inflammatory...

Amen, Pip! :big wink: There is a reason RO is the largest and most active rabbit forum on the net, it is a great place! Sadly, that can also draw in trolls and folks with bad attitudes who cannot seem to accept the rules set in place to keep things running smoothly. I do have to comment on...

Although I like to see babies stay with mother for 8 weeks so they are strong and healthy, this situation doesn't really allow it. Poor momma, I would never recommend breeding back to back, for the mothers health she should get a few months (my opinion) to recover. Good for you on getting the...

That is not all you have been getting, just what you choose to see and pick out from the posts. I'm glad someone is helping you and I hope they are responsible with proper knowledge. :peace

So she is still eating well, just not finishing all her pellets? I wouldn't be worried about that unless she stops eating them altogether. My guess is she is filling up on all that fresh grass.

Awww, adorable! Well done video too. :)

The most likely explanation is hormones. I saw it all the time when I was volunteering at a local rabbit rescue. People would surrender female rabbits that hit puberty and had become nasty, when all they needed was a spay, which usually took care of the problem. In rare cases the problem...

I'm so sorry for your loss, I just got to this thread. The drooling, not wanting to eat certain foods, and teeth grinding really made me think a teeth issue. Your vet said his molars were longer than usual, but doesn't sound like he trimmed them? I'm concerned by that. They are either too long...

This person likely will not listen to any advice you have to give, or they will get defensive and start insulting you. Yep, I have experience responding to these kinds of ads and they usually go nowhere, except make me more upset. :grumpy:

The only store bought treats my bunnies get on occasion are Craisins from the grocery store and Vitakraft Nibble Rings from Petco.
