    Bunny bonding behavior change

    Hello! I recently adopted a 3yo fixed female and I have a 1yo unfixed male. He’s getting fixed but it’s not until January. I have their cages in the same room, and I’m actually thinking about separating them now as he has started spraying and not eating as much because he can’t stop thinking...

    Your advice re adopting second bunny

    Hi everyone! My family adopted a bunny from a shelter in August - we love her and she's thriving. We're strongly considering getting her a companion. We know it's best to let them "meet" a few other bunnies, but with COVID it's a challenge. Do you have advice on picking a second bunny in this...

    Hi all 😊 I'm a first time rabbit owner. I adopted Harvey from a shelter a few months ago and we became instant best friends. Not much is known about his back story. He was found wandering around a park, and they guessed his age to be around 1.5 - 2 years. He was desexed before I brought him...

    Should I get a second rabbit?

    I have a two-year-old mini lop, Louie, who I’ve had since he was 10 weeks. He lives a nice little life with a decent size cage and running around my room when I’m there, and he loves getting pets and treats. He flops all the time, so he seems pretty content to me. He’s really easy going; I’ve...
