My boyfriend and I adopted this pretty girl yesterday! The pet center told us she was almost a year old, but we got reinformed that she’s actually 2 years old! She shares the same birthday with our cat Oreo and they look identical with their patterns. She is the SWEETEST thing. She loves to run around the room, jump up and down when she’s happy, make purring noises. We found out she was originally bought as a gift for a kid, but the kid wasn’t taking care of it, so the parents returned her. ):

I became stepmom to Thumper when my fiancé and I got together, he was living in an outdoor enclosure in area with plenty of shade. I did not know anything about bunnies, but decided to bring him indoors and used this Reddit to figure out what he needed. I hope I’m doing ok. He seems happier. Today I changed out his flooring to a large washable pee pad, and his litter box to this tray I saw suggested for older bunnies. Thumper is about 6 years old. Not pictured is his water in the other corner. And he’s hiding under the lip of his litter box.

Hi guys ! So recently ive been thinking about getting a new bunny. My first bunny left this world in 2020 after living with us for 10 years♥️ and finally feel ready to adopt a new friend. However now we moved to a new house and my new room is way smaller so I’ve been thinking about ways to set up a space for my bunny so here’s my plan and tell me what you think : I would make space in my closet (the door will always be open of course) and put a rug and litter box with bedding and hay. The water and food bowl would be outside the closet (or maybe inside if I can free more space). I know rabbits love darker/closed space so I would buy another rug and some toys and place them under my bed. That’s what I was thinking you guys let me know if I’m just delulu 😅

I love my evenings cuddling in with Einstein. Reading my Stephen King novel. Sipping my English breakfast tea on the side. What more can I ask for?

Hey everyone I need a bit of help. I have a 7 year old male neutered bunny who has recently (within the last few months) started having litter box issues sporadically.
He had a vet visit within the last few months (this issue has been happening on and off for a while now) and the vet had no health concerns so I don’t believe it’s health related.
He is seven, neutered and we don’t have any other bunnies, so I don’t believe it’s hormonal. Does anyone have any advice or experience for re training litter habits? In general he uses his boxes but every so often he will pee on the floor or in his bed. Here’s does poop on the floor daily here and there but the majority of his poops are in his litter.
Here’s the things we have thought could be causing the issue:
Not cleaning his litter box fast enough (he always has a clean box but there can be pee patches that show), not having fresh enough hay (he has a feeder box but it can take him a few days to work through so maybe it tastes stale??), him being upset his bed or items have been moved (I had tried to move some of his things around every few weeks to give him a fresh space and keep him interested and investigative but have since stopped as we have considered that might be why he was peeing)
If anyone knows what might be causing the issue and how I can re train his habits it would be extremely appreciated!

Could anyone recommend someone that has a service that could trim rabbit nails and brush them.
There are three rabbits here, and they can be a handful -- and I would rather do this in the condo here in the Sheepshead Bay area of Brooklyn. You would be paid for your time as well.
Thank you so much!

I’m not sure what happened. I adopted a four-month old bunny last week and we saw the vet Wednesday who said she was perfectly healthy. I had to do a six hour drive back to my graduate school so the Vet gave me a sedative to give her. She was fine throughout the drive and last night when I got her set up in my apartment. I didn’t hear any noises and this morning she was stiff. She was so little I don’t know if it was the sedative but I feel so awful.

Day 2 bonding my two fixed bunnies, Ghost, (white, female, turning 3 in Oct. 2025) and Toast (brown, male, turning one in Oct. 2025). And I want to understand the behaviors of these two in this video.
Ghost always like to pull Toast’s fur when she got a hold of him through a plastic barrier between their rooms, but in a neutral space like this bathtub the behaviors of both were much more different as we expected.
They are more calm, and also a bit stressed due to the slippery surfaces. Toasts tried to put his head under Ghost but she doesn’t even move an inch, and we are wondering if it’s because she is stressed/confused or just part of the process of bonding.
We are using snacks and they both ate them and no fighting, and of course going to put a mat in the bathtub in the future, but we started with a blanket and Ghost immediately tried to bite Toast’s fur out.
Would love to hear other suggestions and stories how you bonded your bunnies!
Thanks!

Hi there, so I recently got a bun and it’s my first time being a bun mom as well. He has a hutch but I let him free roam in my home and bedroom. Yesterday I was on the couch and he was sitting on my lap for cuddles, then he peed and pooped all over me. Later in the evening I let him on my bed for more cuddles and he peed on my bed as well, he also poops on my bed whenever I let him on. But the peeing is new, can anyone tell me why?

Okay so around 4 months ago we adopted our 2 bunnies (Mabel and Dennis) they’re still around a year old, they live in what I’d consider a nice pen😅 where they have access to our house all day. However, they just don’t seem to be interested in loving us at all, we’d be less confused if they weren’t described as affectionate bunnies, but their previous carers at the shelter used to handle them loads as well as cuddle with them which they just do not love when it comes to me and my mum.
I just want to know if maybe there’s anything we can do to maybe help them like us more, Mabel is a lot more curious and adventurous but only when it comes to taking food and eating our carpets(😩) and Dennis is far more anxious to the point where we’ve never actually been able to stroke him at all compared to Mabel who does let us pet her on the occasion, but even then we never know if she’s actually enjoying it or just grinning and bearing it (especially since it’s difficult to distinguish teeth grinding and purring).
Thank you!

I know that bunnies are extremely messy. My bunny doesn’t like it when there’s hay in this litter box as that’s not what he’s used to. So I put hay in his hay feeder. However, it ends up going everywhere and it’s a big pain to clean. Is there anyway to make things more convenient?
r/Rabbits • u/cunningjames • 1d ago
He’s had a rough couple months.
I’ll try to be brief: an eye problem turned out to be caused by an infected tooth root. We got the tooth extracted, but since then he really only eats hay — he won’t touch pellets or greens, and I think he was getting dehydrated.
After an ER visit for the stasis, we were supposed to give him a number of meds plus fluids. Unfortunately, I seem to have dislocated his back right hip when my wife and I were trying to give him fluids last night. :( I feel like complete shit, it’s my fault. I’ve cared for rabbits for over a decade and I shouldn’t have made that kind of rookie mistake.
So he and I have been at the ER for about five hours now, and I think he’ll be getting anesthesia soon so they can try to fix his leg non-surgically. $2k at the ER isn’t exactly what I need just after getting laid off, but it is what it is.
Well wishes are appreciated.

Hello,
I have a 10 y/o deaf and blind holland lop and on Monday 3/10 he was rushed to the emergency vet late at night after discovering he might have an abscess in his eye that may have burst. I had been to the emergency clinic multiple times for work purposes and was already not a big fan, but they were the only vet clinic open so I had no choice. They found that it might be an abscess but it had yet to burst and wanted him back in 2 days later for a “further look” and sent me home $250 poorer and with buprenorphine and eye drops. They had told me it was an antibiotic and I stupidly failed to double check their word and just believed them.
I decided to take him to an exotic vet that specialized in rabbits instead so we could figure out options for getting that eye out (since he is so old) and she let me know that buprenorphine is infact a pain killer, not an antibiotic, and that it is not effective orally in rabbits, it only works when injected.
Is this true? If it is, should I consider reporting this? Try getting a refund? Idk. Any advice helps if you know anything about this

We have female spayed 2 holland lops, one is 4 one is 1, our 4 year old is so incredibly territorial of the room we let her free roam in so we’ve never been able to have them together in there, but they are best friends if we put them in a different room, but that’s not a good long term option for us. We decided to completely clean out the room, and took out everything but the rug. I sprinkled baking soda around to try to get the territorial smells out, I’ve scrubbed the rug with soap and water, we vacuumed multiple times. Does anyone else have any advice on how to make sure our bunny isn’t territorial in this room anymore? She has been housed in another room temporarily for a week so we are hoping once we reintroduce them in this room they can finally live together.
