Around this time of the year many children wish for a pet rabbit and who can blame them? The problem is, most of the time they don’t truly want a rabbit, they want what the media tells them a rabbit is. The media, especially around Easter, tells us that rabbits are tiny, cute, and fluffy….
Any time we remove our rabbits from their home and take them to a new environment, it causes stress. The rabbit doesn’t know if the new place is safe, it doesn’t have a properly marked territory any more, and the regular routines rabbits love so much are disturbed. That being said, sometimes we have to take…
In addition to hay, rabbits should have a supply of fresh water within their reach at all times. Even rabbits that get most of their fluids through fresh vegetables and don’t drink a whole lot (like ours) need to always have access to water. Keeping a rabbit well hydrated helps maintain their overall health. Water…
Our bunnies love to eat flowers! They are a great treat and can be sprinkled over hay to make it a bit more interesting and tasty. Here’s a list of flowers you can offer your rabbits in addition to their regular diet. Please keep in mind that potted or cut plants bought in most stores (including…

Every new family member, be it furry or not, will increase the monthly expenses of the household. Before getting any pet it is a good idea to do the math and figure out if you can afford to support it. Here’s what our 2 bunnies cost, so you get an idea what to expect if…
Zucchini has become a new favorite in our family, so I thought it would be a great idea to write about it for the Eat Like A Rabbit series. The goal is to offer rabbits a large variety of fresh food without letting any excess go to waste. Plus, if it’s good for the rabbits,…
Two weekends ago my husband and I decided to go on a day trip and attend the Herb Festival in Asheville, a 2.5 hour drive away from where we live. We thought it would be a great opportunity to learn more about herbs and find a few new options for our bunnies. As you may…
When it comes to wall decoration, there are choices that include rabbits, but none that were designed from a rabbit’s perspective. What would our bunnies hang on their walls if they could choose?
