New Bunny and Her Handler

[Alice-Bea-Goode]

Hello All!

I am relatively new to rabbits, having had one a few years ago but not knowing how to handle her aggressive cage possessiveness (so she is now roaming the wilds of Katama...)

A coworker who breeds and shows rabbits was looking to place a few in loving homes, so I decided to try again. I wound up taking homea beautiful 3month old Dutchdoe. She's very spunky, though maybe a little people shy.

After trying out a couple of different names, Alice seemed to stick. So she is my little (black and) white rabbit, lol. She joins two amphibious brothers, Blue Dumpy tree frogs named Spunky and Baby Froggy.

We are both looking forward to any and all info I can glean from this forum on care, normal behaviour,etc...

Thanks!

Roaming the wilds? Not only is it cruel to release a rabbit into the wild, it is illegal. Domestic rabbits are not equipped to deal with the wild like wild rabbits are. I hope you realize how very wrong this action was and will under no circumstances do it again. Find a rescue next time your animal starts to display a natural behavior that you don't agree with, and never get that animal again.

I didn't know better at the time. I knew it was a natural response but didn't know how to handle it. I am better prepared and better informed this time around. Hence why I have joined this forum.

I would like to welcome you to Rabbits Online, my name is Dave and I am a moderator on the forum. So if I can be of any help please let me know. This is a terrific website for rabbits and their slaves, not only is it very active but also friendly. I am so glad you’re here and I know you will enjoy it.

Many bunnies’ recommend their slaves to this site so we may learn of others methods to keeping our furry masters happy.

If you everhave a sick bunny, please post in The Infirmary and include your rabbit's age, breed and health history as well diet and output details leading up to the problem.

Here are somelinks I thought you might find interesting:

*For reference the Library section

*To brag or tell everyone about the antics of your bunny or just to talk about your day here is where to start a Bunny Blog, you can also look back at it later and remember when you had a life before your bunny.

*Now all the bunny’s like talk to each other when we mere slaves aren’t around in the Bunny Chat is the spot to be.

*The House Rabbit Society has a lot of good information on what veggies are safe for bunny’s, etc.

*Here is a link to learn what your furry master is trying to say to you How to Understand Your Bunny's Language

*Rabbits Online also has regional forums , this a good way to find a vet in your area that has experience with rabbits and to find out from other nearby of good sources of rabbit supplies.

The Let Your Hare Down section is for anything non-bunny related.

Here is a link tothat will help you and your bunny to connect, How to Bond with Your Bunny.

Now every forum has rules and ours can be found with this link Rabbits Online Forum Rules. This gives guidelines on what is acceptable, what is not and how we hope everyone will treat each other.

Everyone on this forum loves to see pictures of each other’s bunnies. So if you would like to post a picture this link will help you do that, Upload Photo's to Photo Gallery. Then in the post, you click on the "G" in the tool bar to insert your photo. Many people also use Photobucket. You just copy the img file and paste it into the post.

Don’t hesitate to ask questions and I am glad you have joined rabbits online; I look forward to seeing you around.
