    Great insight and creativity in addressing the topic. Especially loved the last tip, #15. Rabbit are such complex and intelligent animal. Few realize just how much I'm afraid. The world needs to be educated on rabbits in general. Your video's always provide insights and wisdom that would otherwise go unnoticed. Useful tips any rabbit owner would be happy to come across. thank you.

    I was thinking of trying those indoor cat running wheels for my bun she is still under 2 months old right now but she came home a day before 6 weeks as she bonded with me and my mom instantly and was already weaned from milk fully she came from a farm breeder for pets. she’s gonna be the size of a small dog or a medium sized cat. We have a chihuahua mix that loves her and she’s bonding with and 2 cats also. thought that may be a good enrichment item for the cats also. Also Sally’s parents are both 10-14 pounds. Her dad is a silver fox cross Flemish giant and her mom is a New Zealand cross Rex. Sally is a gorgeous little baby and not fazed or scared of much so when older we will leash train her also. First step is litter box training. My first rabbit was a lop she was almost 10 years old when she passed she loved people and was bonded with cats and dogs but her best friend in the whole wide world was my sisters black lab golden retriever lol they would sleep together on my bed, the dog bed or on the floor. she was raised as a free roam of my room and minimally destroyed anything. Also liked car rides. Rabbits are great pets and thanks for these tips on using behavioural stimuli and positive reinforcement as well since it can combat behavioural destruction. I also find rubber mats under an hutch or play pen helps save carpet and floors from accidents even with box training it happens. rabbits are incredibly smart and learn things like a cat or dog. Also bonding to other animals in the home if introduced properly watched and also reprimanded if needed Is pretty easy also. Only almost 2 weeks into this process she knows her name. Comes when I tap on the floor. Likes pets and attention. Not scared of the dog or cats. Also loves showing off Also starting to know the word no when I snap my fingers and point. I’m saying sally is gonna be broken like a cat. my lop was vary cat like and fully house broken.

      Ideally it's best to get a rabbit spayed before they're a year old, but before they're 2 years is pretty normal. The surgery starts to become more dangerous for aging rabbits, so I would definitely get the advice of a veterinarian for rabbit's older than 5 or 6 years, but you've still got some time before you'd have to worry about that.

    • @kennafarley3669
      @kennafarley3669 3 роки тому

      if you're talking about moving, take it slow and let your rabbit acclimate to your family first if possible. have your family over and lay on the ground with treats - not too many - to bond with your rabbit. if your family has any other predator animals, you'll probably need an x pen to keep your rabbit in so the other pets don't have a chance to attack the rabbit. get the biggest one you can find/ afford. they have some 8ft x 8ft (16sqft) pens on amazon for about $46 . you'll need to purchase a carrier (or use a lined cardboard box) to transport your rabbit. you'll probably want to rabbit proof to keep your rabbit as safe as possible and keep your stuff intact. protect any cords with flex tubing and any corners with corner guards. they have paint-able ones to blend in or transparent ones. you'll want to keep your rabbit out from under your beds and couches, so you can buy metal closet shelving and attach it underneath. also, i think it's a good idea to put outlet covers in. an idea not commonly talked about in the rabbit community, but i think that taking extra precaution doesn't hurt. when you set up your x pen, you'll probably want to line it with fleece because rabbits don't have paw pads so they can't get traction on tile/hardwood floor. if you have carpet, this may not be an issue unless you rabbit isn't fixed, therefore not fully litter trained. to setup your rabbits litter box, many people prefer a covered litter box designed for cats, because if the litter box isn't covered, when rabbits jump from the litter box they kick litter everywhere. the perk of a covered litter box is that litter will be contained so you won't have to sweep as much. you will need a clay/dust free litter like unscented Feline Pine or some bedding. i think feline pine is more absorbent, but litter alone could cause sore hocks, so use whatever your rabbit seems to prefer. your rabbit will also need enrichment and chew toys. clean tp rolls work great. make sure to use water bowls not bottles. also, you can use a non-hooded litter box if you want to use a hay rack. hay racks are good if your rabbit seems to soil a lot of hay in the litter box. thats mostly it. unless you meant taking them on vacation - i don't recommend that since travel stresses rabbits out - unless they're nearby and they're your sitter, then go ahead :)
