Welcome to RO!

Here is a great place to learn about the wonderful world of bunnies everyone on here has at least 1 bit of advice to give I am sure of that!

But before we go any further we need pictures of Tiny!!!

I am sure other people will ask the same!

So if you have any questions post away someone will always answer you no matter how silly the question may seem!

Lots of love and bunny kisses from Becca and the gang

Hi! Welcome to RO!

I personally love the lagomorph library! It has tons of information about any rabbit-related issue you can imagine .
Reading the section on litter training your tiny (ha!) bun will help you feel better about the never ending number of poops your little guy will create for you. When I first got my buns, I was astonished at how much poop could come out of a small rabbit, so fast. Littertraining my guys made it a lot easier on my housework load

Since you just got Tiny...i'm sure he's still probably scared...what you can do is though is just sit with him without touching him for a while...let him come up to you and check you out first as bunnies are very curious creature's...this way he will learn to gain your trust...and it just make's it easier for him to adjust to his new life and his new family.

When i brought each of my bunnies home of course they were scared and would hide under my bed for ages...but i gave them time and patienceand soon found me not to be a threat to them.

All you need is a bit of patience and loveand he will end up loving you all
