    For the people that keep bringing this up...It's not that they don't like each other, I see it more of a clash in personalities. Like good friends who are simply opposites. One is calm, serious and professional while the other is spontaneous, sunny and sometimes silly. x D

    That's one tolerant bunny. Lily acts like she's being murdered when I try to brush her.

      It's easier if you have a table to put them on for grooming. Then they know they can't run away.

    that is one of the most calmest rabbit i have ever seen, when i had my rabbit she hated being groomed 2x a year, spring and fall, the only way i was able to groom her, i had to give her treats when doing her bi-yearly grooming .

  • @SeabassFishbrains

    My bunny loves grooming time so much, he'll even turn around bit by bit on his own just to let me get all sides evenly ^-^ he always lets me deal with his eye sand too. The only times I've ever needed to do any kind of bathing for him was once when he fell asleep outside and a slug climbed onto him, I had to use a warm/damp wash cloth to get the slug slime off of him because he was too freaked out about it to do it himself properly and one when he scratched his eye and I needed to clean it up with a warm/wet washcloth again. Otherwise bunnies are very good at keeping themselves clean which is much appreciated by me :)

      @bunnymad5049 8 років тому +1

      +POIsonAtTheCircus LOL. My ratbag hates being groomed. So I hold him firmly and pluck gently at major moulting times and always give him a piece of apple each day when he's having a major moult or he gets GI Stasis. Then he doesn't talk to me for a week (except to grab the apple from my hand, lol).

    • @bunnymad5049
      @bunnymad5049 8 років тому +1

      POIsonAtTheCircus awww. Yup. How we care for them has so much bearing on what they end up like. If they are part of the family they are just awesome. Hubby has had to rescue part of his breakfast at times cos Sticky (bunny's name) reaches up at the coffee table and grabs toast and runs off with it. lol

    I used to have a rabbit and every spring when he was shedding the local crows and magpies used to torture him, plucking hair off him. We had to try and keep him in, even though he wanted to be in the garden. We would just brush him and throw the hair outside for the birds.

      @sunwukong2 5 років тому

      Please don't use your pet's fur to needlefelt. It's not sanitary unless you clean it, card it, etc. Also, it doesn't really felt as well as wool, cashmere, alpaca...unless you have an Angora, which I still don't recommend to felt unless you, once again, know what you're doing. I'm not clear on if you have to wash angora but you probably should...
      I know I'm late, but in short, please don't felt fibers without properly prepping them, and its also a little weird or a lost cause for some fibers (like cat fur which is really slick) youre better off buying material than picking loose bits off the floor, table, etc.

    She's very timid and only likes me because I'm very calm and gentle. She will always come up to me and start licking me, she comes to me for attention and love.

    Speaking of scent glands, is there anything you can recommend to curve litter pan odor. I have 3 rabbits 2 of which are Angoras. I have to keep them in extra large bunny pens but after 2 days, they just flat out stink again. I change out the paper litter so often it's not even funny. One of my angoras weighs 11.5 lbs. He is a big boy. So when he goes it's generally a lot. I stay on top of the cleaning and brushing but sometimes I wish there was a better alternative for the odor. I also line the bottom of the litter pan with newspaper to help, but it doesn't really after a few hours.

      +Rizalyn delos Santos You can groom them at any age, it's best to groom them when you notice tht they're shedding a lot but aside from that, I usually groom mine once a week or a little less. Over grooming can be detrimental but I feel like grooming time is also bonding time so I like doing atleast once a week.

    My rabbit does not like to be handled AT ALL. He doesn’t even let us pet him! Any advice as to how to groom him?

    Hey do you have any advice on how to convince my parents to get a rabbit or maybe some tips or facts or something that might help? Thanks.

      Rabbits dont make noise they are gentle and quiet and they can be potty trained. You can also train your rabbits to do tricks.

      also, rabbits are very easily able to be litter trained so they can roam around the house without a problem once that happens.

    Don't pluck him! what if I pull your hair. When you do that, you don't know what hairs are still attached to them.

      shes pulling it lightly so she knows if it comes out that easily that it has already came out

      I can't groom her outside, she tried to run away one time I tried, I'm to worried if I tired too again.

      She's a long haired, she sheds all year long, she just doesn't like getting groomed, so she's tries to get away. Usually I try to calm her down with treats but she's not buying it. She just doesn't like it. I don't know why she doesn't.
