Hello everyone!
My name is Jaclyn and I recently adopted myself a rabbit. Oreo is a broken mini-lop who has finally adjusted to his surroundings and is now more than comfortable. He is 6 months old and it's been somewhat of a struggle to get him to realize he doesn't always need to be in a cage.

This isn't my first time caring for a rabbit. Two years ago I had a dwarf rabbit, Monty, who unfortunately passed away due to a tumor. So Oreo is a very welcomed new addition to the family.

The difference between Oreo and Monty is that Oreo is adopted, while my family had Monty since he was born. So I'm running into some road blocks as to how to properly care for Oreo and make him calm in the process. Any advice is very much encourage

Jaclyn

Welcome! If you have questions on behavior and taming and such, the nutrition/behavior section would be the best to ask it in since most people won't see it here in the introductions. Congrats on Oreo and welcome again!

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.

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.
