    Should I keep rotating between enclosures? (bunny bonding)

    I really don´t give much credence to my instincts in this area, since I am fairly new to bunnies, and therefore my instincts aren´t really based on.. Well, much of anything. But if I were to still trust them, it does seem like the rotating is actually doing some good. Previously I´ve only...

    Should I keep rotating between enclosures? (bunny bonding)

    Is it also possible that the rotating creates a negative association towards the new bunny for my resident bunny? I could imagine a scenario where rotating enclosures means that he is stressed and angry about being forced out of his territory, and while in that state he is surrounded by her...

    Should I keep rotating between enclosures? (bunny bonding)

    I am working on bonding my bunny with another rescue bunny I got about two weeks ago. My resident bunny has always been free roaming with acces to my whole apartment, but generally kept in the living room, clearly considering this his territory. When I got the new bunny I put a fence between the...

    Bunny absolutely hates being picked up, solution?

    5 days ago. They did shave it, but he is basically a big ball of floof, so the surrounding fur on his legs, bum and stomach still covers the area.

    Bunny absolutely hates being picked up, solution?

    Unfortunately any "passive" method of checking the stitches won´t work since he has a lot of fur and I can´t see the stiches well without actively moving it. I already tried several ways, like having him walk across a glass pane while I was lying underneath trying to check the stitches, but the...

    Bunny absolutely hates being picked up, solution?

    My bunny Belzebub hates being picked up, even more so than the average bunny I think. But after I got him neutered I´ve had to pick him up several times though to give him medication etc, which has taken a strain on our relationship, he is noticably less comfortable around me now, which is kind...

    How much dandelion roots can I give my bunny?

    That´s a good tip, I didn´t know that.. Gonna make sure to keep an extra eye on his pee, seems like simple solution to keep track :) After googling it seems that many sites recommend it for people specifically because of the high calcium content, so I am going to take your advice and just use...

    Throw your rabbit names at me!

    I usually call him Bobby or Belzefloof, and in conversation I just refer to him as the floof 😚

    Throw your rabbit names at me!

    Say hello to Belzebub (although after I pet him sideways over the head he looks more like Donald Trump) ☺

    How much dandelion roots can I give my bunny?

    My bunny absolutely love dried dandelion roots, and it´s a good way to keep him busy and give him something to chew on. I read however that dandelion should only be given to bunnies in limited amounts, because of high calcium content. Is this also true for the roots, and if so, is there any good...

    Can you leave a bunny alone for a few hours after neutering?

    That´s actually reassuring to hear, since I´m a bit worried regarding all this. I´m not usually an overly neurotic person, but when it comes to animals I tend to worry myself sick... I´m still gonna try and find a way to stay home with him either way though. Even if it is not necessary from a...

    Can you leave a bunny alone for a few hours after neutering?

    Upon reflection I´ve decided that I am not comfortable with the idea of leaving him alone either way, so I am simply going to level with my boss and explain the situation. Then I´ll ask for a day off to perform aftercare, but as a sign of good will offer to postpone the procedure a bit because...

    Can you leave a bunny alone for a few hours after neutering?

    I´m getting my bunny neutered on monday, something I want to get done asap since I am working full time and need to be able to bond him with a friend. But I am also working the evening shift on monday, meaning I would have to leave him alone for ~5 hours after he gets back home from the vet. The...
