house rabbits

I have two bonded pairs of rabbits. My first pair, I have had for 5 years and my second pair, I adopted last year. I keep them outside so I can give them lots of room to run. Both pairs have a covered dog kennel with a hutch inside, and then they have an 18' X 18' free range area (covered...

Introduce your Pets Well I just thought it would be fun if we all introduced our pets. . . again, so that way everyone can get to know all the pets and its easier to learn about everyones pets if its all in one place (mostly) ~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~ Okay, first up in...

I need to get Mopsy neutered but when I have been looking at websites I keep reading about how there are so many vets out there that will sterilize rabbits but not really know what they are doing. If any of you here are from Mass, could you suggest a good vet. Or even a bad one that I should...

Ok. Sooo, I've heard about housing chinchillas and degus together, and I've also a few times heard of housing degus and guinea pigs together. I also know on degus.org it says degus could also live with rabbits, but I was wondering the accuracy (for lack of a better word) of that. Regardless of...

The House Rabbit Society (House Rabbit Society Rabbit Care Guide) has some useful holiday tips for keeping your rabbit happy and healthy this holiday season! I figured it's useful information so it couldn't hurt to post it here :)

My rabbit won't eat his pellets. He devours his hay and vegetables and his occational piece of fruit, but he just won't eat his pellets. Should I cut off his vegetables and then he might be hungry for his pellets?? I don't know what to do! :(

:confetti: I just got a new bunny! He is a male Mini Rex named Thumper and he is soooo cute! He's about 18 weeks old (considering that I got him on July 16 when he was 8 weeks old). I'll have pics at the bottom! I was doing research on what to feed him and there are way to many websites! I...

Hi. My name is Diane and I just bought 2 mini lops for my children. They are the cutest things ever! The pet store guy said they are brothers and are 12 weeks old. He said they can live together in the same cage. Well, the first 2 days at our house they were great. Snuggling with each...

We just added two dwarf bunnies to our family. We are already the proud owners of two kitties and two dwarf hamsters. We got a dwarf lionhead named Charlie and a netherlands dwarf named Chysanthemum. They are only 2 mos. old... so we can't tell the sex yet. We've only had them for 3 days, but...

Okay, so I know we just got Wicket, but I felt bad for him all alone in that HUGE cage. (Even though he rarely gets put down. LOL!) So I thought he should have friend. And I thought it would be better to do it now while they were both babies so they could bond to each other. So today I got a 6...

Does anyone have any experience with angoras. I know someone who would be interested in knitting with wool from these rabbits... but I'm not sure if I should get into keeping a few to supply her. Is a major commitment of time and energy required to keep these animals happy and healthy? Also, how...

i went to the petstore today and happened to stumble upon a new product which i personally have not ever seen....it was a Marshall ferret product which was a clear, relatively soft, plastic covering that was infused with citrus to prevent animals such as ferets and rabbits from chewing...

I noticed that the rabbit section doesn't have a sticky on good rabbit sites. There are some very informative sites listed over at guinealynx. I thought I would share them with you all. :) House Rabbits - Behavior, Care, Rescue, Adoption, Education | House Rabbit Society The Language of...

How old is your rabbit?

There is an animal hospital near where I live, that has formed a relationship with a battered women's shelter to help the women and children get their animals out of abusive homes. The people from the hospital foster the animals until the women can change their situations, and then the women...

I only have one rodent now. One hamster. My female mouse died and soon after my male mouse died as well. I still have the mouse babies, but without their mother I doubt they will live. This is so depressing. On top of that, I was forced to give away my 3 dwarf hamsters because they were breeding...

I have 2 adorable house rabbits that have lived happily together for the last months. The neutered male hs always loved licking the face of the female bun, but in the last 2 weeks he has made 2 bald spots above her eyes and continues to lick, lick, lick. She seems happy enough and is always...

Hiya everybody, I have a 1 1/2 year old english lop rabbit named Hunny Bunny. Shes basicly our (hubby and I) first bunny although Ive had bunnies in the past but I was not the main care taker. Anywho, we found out she really likes fruit. I looked it up and found this big long list of safe...

I just got my first foster bun last week and last night she started making a nest. I can't find anything on the house rabbit site about the signs she is about to give birth. She was chasing her tail this morning like she was in pain. It figures....1st foster and she would be pregnant. Anyone...
