When we first adopted Bunny, he was a little over a year old and on a high pellet, hay, and low vegetable diet. After a bunch of research and several discussions, we decided to slowly introduce more vegetables and ultimately get rid of pellets. After all, they are processed and no rabbit would naturally have…
If you have ever set foot in a local pet store, you may have noticed that for every 30 shelves with items for dogs and cats there may be one for rabbits (if you are really lucky). Most of the time, that one shelf isn’t even just for rabbits, it’s for small animals in general,…
Rabbits are very social creatures that don’t like to be alone. Yet it can be quite challenging to get two (or more) rabbits to bond and live together peacefully, because they are also quite territorial. We collected actual bonding stories for this article. Vicky S: It took about 3 weeks for Big’s and Tux to “love”…
Unless your rabbit spends most of its time hopping around outside in a backyard, you will probably have to trim the nails every now and then, because a carpet floor will not provide sufficient friction to wear them down naturally.

They originally come from the Mediterranean (Spain, Portugal, parts of North Africa). Rabbits were domesticated by the Romans approximately 300BC. They were mainly used for meat and fur and weren’t…
At this time of the year it is important to keep our little rabbit friends out of the heat – after all, they are used to dim caves and underground tunnels and therefore overheat quickly. While Bunny is mostly indoors and enjoys our air conditioning, we did have to fall back on less modern ways…
How do you clean a soiled rabbit? Most of the time, the rabbit will take care of all the cleaning itself and you shouldn’t interfere. However, for the safety of your bun there are times when you have to. Every one of us with pet rabbits has probably witnessed runny or soft stool that got…
One of our most anticipated products and it didn’t disappoint! The Snack Board has 7 openings for small treats and comes with 7 lids to hide the treats under.
