collar for rabbit

[Letitia]

Can you put a collar on a rabbit? Iwould like to put a collar with a bell on my rabbit Freckles.Mainly so that I can find her in my 3000 sqft house. Letitia

 

not advisable ifanything get a H harness to fit yourrabbit and add a bell to it

Collars are dangerous to rabbits ,like cats they can get hung upon something and silently die before you knowtheres a problem .

How about the breakaway collar? My cat of 18 years had one every day of her life. Letitia

I boughta small cat collar and costomfitted it myself so it fit my bunny oliver perfectly. It does have abell on it so I can locate him, but I only let him run around my smallbunny room with supervision. I do agree with gypsy though, and I wouldnot let any rabbit wear one if you are not watching it.

I agree with Gypsy !!!

A Collar can be dangerous to a rabbit, if anything use a harness

 

[Letitia]

I haven't decided yet. I would onlyhave the collar on when she is out of the cage and running in thehouse. The problem with the harness is that it is nearimpossible to get it on her. She fights me every step of theway. Letitia

Ferret harnesses are pretty tiny. I'm not sure they would fitany rabbit.... I can take a picture of mine if you'd like andpost it so you can see how tiny they are.

I use the Ferret Harness made by Hagen...their bunny sized one is still too big for freddy and he's almost 4lbs..

I really don't see any problem with a breakawaycollar, as most very easily come off. She may be able to getit off on her own though.

 

[FreddysMom]

Just b/c of the fact 99%you cant hearthe noisesrabbits make i wouldnt do it. unlessyouhave her under you watch 24/7 you would never know if sheis in distress or not...even with the break away collars a toe nailcould get stuck or something along those lines

Oh, I know which ones you're talking about, I didn't even think ofthose. I have them by Marshall's. The Hagen oneswould probably fit my littler guys too.

is this the H harness you are talking about?http://www.petsmart.com/global/prod...t_id=2534374302023690&bmUID=1121322681296

I have the 'H' Harness. I also have this one too.

 

[kelso]

Is this the "H harness" you're referring to?

 

[FreddysMom]

yes.. they are efficient becaase the weight of tugging is taken off their necks and onto the upper body

 

[rabbitluvr04]
