Grooming! Brushing hair and trimming nails !

[JenniferWilcher20]

Hello all,

I adopted a new bunny in January. She is a very bossy and snappy lionhead lol I had a lionhead prior to her and she was very easy to groom and trim nails. But my new bunny sheesh! She has a ton of hair and she need grooming at least every other day. What are some tips to grooming a bunny who hates it? She growls or runs away when I try. Thank you all in advance for any help!

Firstly, your bunny is adorablleeeee. So unique and pretty. My rabbit also had that problem where he hated being brushes and was/is rather head shy (Im guessing it has something to do with his previous bad home) I would cover her eyes and set her on your lap and pet until she is calm and while petting with one hand, brush gently with the other. Make sure you're using a good rabbit brush so it's not lack of comfort thats making her panic.
