Absolutely! Would you consider getting a domesticated bunny as a pet? They definitely don't smell like poo poo, heck, I think somebody in this thread has a bunny that smells like coffee most of the time.

Jesus. Harriet on Coffee. That would be terrifying.

That being said, as some of you are probably already aware, I have harnessed the destructive power of Harriet in the matter of petty revenge. Excellent

I spilled an energy drink once and before I was able to clean it up my bun had a few sips of it. She was doing those happy jump-and-twists that buns do for like a half hour straight, then passed out for a good long nap

So I got a second bunny. I didn't know how much work it would be to bond them, the new one REALLY hates my rabbit right now, but she has a very shy personality so it's going to be awhile before she's comfortable period.

Guys, I am really starting to wonder how much Harriet loves me because in the past month she has not destroyed any of my stuff, only my roomates. My socks are uneaten, my bedroom carpet is clean, my phone charging cables are untouched.

Either Harriet really does love me, and is acting as my instrument of vengeance on my roomate, or she dislikes me enough not to show her usual loving ways.


She did groom my hair though so.....

My bunnies now endeavor to be at all times just outside my peripheral vision as they follow me around the house. Every time I look at them they avert their gaze and bury their faces in one another. Is this fear? Respect? Disrespect? Are they hiding? I don't understand.

Harriet did something really, really bad and she's buttering you up so you won't be as mad once you figure it out.

What I'm saying is expect to find a human femur with bunny tooth gnaw marks in your closet.

My roomate didn't seem to be home last night....and Harriet was affectionate this morning.


So, bleach, and garbage bags to hide the remains?

This rabbit hopped into my backyard today. At first, I thought it was just a cute visitor, but then it turned its head.

It wasn't pretty.

I've never seen such a thing before - and I have no experience in handling rabbits. Does anyone know what happened to this poor rabbit's eye?

Rabbit vets can be hard to find, and expensive. I figure a cat probably got that bun. Check your local rescue of they take rabbits if it looks like a dumped pet.

It's a domestic based on its coat. Looks like it probably got attacked by something, got an injury that turned into an infection and abscessed.

Could possibly live a long healthy life if you want to invest the money in keeping it alive. It's probably gonna be costly if you can find a vet with rabbit experience.

Does anyone buy hay from local farmers? I'm nearly out of my normal KMS timothy order and they are set to be out of it until August. I live in a reasonable driving distance from several farms but I can't be sure what their hay is comprised of. Did you ask for a break down of what the majority grass component was or just say "screw it" and feed it to your rabbits anyway?

So for the last couple days I've noticed something I've never seen before. I see on the floor what looks like a normal dropping but it looks smushed. I've never seen it before. It's like a thin layer of toothpaste? (I don't know how to describe it)

I'm trying to move my 2 rabbits between cages, so I'm not sure if I upset the digestion or something weird (rabbits are so sensitive!)

It doesn't appear runny, it's almost a fruit roll up texture. Has anyone seen this before? Is it possible he just smushed it himself with wet paws or something?

Are you sure it isn' just a squished cecal?

Smooshed cecal. If it keeps happening, talk to your vet. It could be a gut flora imbalance.

Peanut tugs at the fence when we close her in but isn't strong enough to open their house that way. We basically have a cage, around which we have attached fencing to create a large play area (which forms their house). It doesn't latch closed, but the fence naturally bends closed and I've weighted the bottom to make it hard to open.

I think our two get out on occasion thanks to their natural clumsiness. There are carpets abutting the fence, they jump down from the roof of the cage onto the carpets, which then skid comically into the fence and force it open. Snoopy is a little ninja, she is completely quiet when hopping around but Peanut is an elephant that thumps her big feet around the house so she inevitably announces their escape before they can cause too much damage.

I have the jump-laziest rabbits in the world. Pepper won't jump for anything. When she was little, she might have hopped about a foot off the ground if there was hay in it for her, but even then probably not.

My husband was stunned when he saw my old rabbit Camille hop 4+ feet onto a box to get some hay. He had no idea "they could do that." I'm like, you idiot, it's a rabbit.

When we had ours they would all jump onto the couch. Two of them would get down by going to the edge and hopping downward and then run off.

But not Sascha, oh hell no. She would go to the edge, look down, and jump as hard as possible and smash face first into the coffee table and fall down.

Hey, our vet (finally) got the results for whatever it was she cut off Pepper's leg. It turns out it was a "trichoblastoma"? She says they're usually benign, but since Pepper's grew so quick, we should keep an eye on it.

Here's the thing: I'm not convinced it grew quick. It was in a weird spot (like, the bit of leg leading up to the crotch), and I think I just didn't see it until it was huge.

Either way, tell me more about rabbits having those things and otherwise assure me that she'll have a long and ornery life.

She'll be fine. She was fine when you last asked and your vet says she's fine.

Relax. Benign tumors happen, it was treated successfully and wasn't cancerous.
