A Day in the Life of Theodore: My Lionhead Bunny

Theo is not only the strangest bunny on this planet, but he is ultimately my best friend. He follows me everywhere, loves eating, playing, and thumps when he wants attention (So my child) He takes naps and the occasional bunny flop...and takes pleasure in pulling all the hay out his willow ball (Not shown in video) He's my baby, a very furry and cuddly baby, my diva, and my BFF I love and take care of each day.
So, in honor of his strangeness and how much I love him, I took the time during my stay-at-home quarantine to make a "Day in the Life of Theo" video for all of you to enjoy. So sit back, relax, grab a carrot, and be amused at how interesting my free-roam Lionhead bunny can be.

Omg. My wife and kids wanted rabbits and under protest I agreed, paid thousands to be fixed, a big home in our kitchen, toys, food etc. I wasn't thrilled with getting rabbits, but the kids were super excited, so... Ok. I'm 44 years old and have had dogs and cats all my life and I swear to God when you earn a bunnies trust and he loves you... There is nothing like it. I am head over heels in love with Howard (my lion head bunny) and he has me wrapped around his finger. He looks forward to seeing me, I look forward to seeing him, my face gets a 20 minute bath every night after work and we are best buds. The female (Albert) has a different personality and doesn't dig humans as much as Howard and that's ok because they adore each other. Rabbits are a way bigger commitment than dogs or cats. These 2 keep me busy daily and that's ok because I would do anything for them. I was never a rabbit or small animal lover because I always assumed it was just a lot of cleaning and mess with little interaction. There is a lot of cleaning, but once you gain a bunnies trust and love it melts your freaking heart. They're only 6-7 months old and I'm already bummed to hear most rabbits only live 9-10 years (I can't even think about that). Awesome vid and my little bunnies look a lot like yours, but different coloring. Howard I'm done watching KZbin. Let's snuggle 🥰

[@nikay02]

Aww such a cute comment.. im getting a bunny and the thing that scares me the most is cleaning.. coz I heard bunny pee smells bad hahaha...

[@chefdave12118]

@@nikay02 it's really not bad at all. Maybe because we got them fixed and they don't spray (or whatever rabbits do), but I change the litter box every couple days and they are gucci. My buddy howard just stares at me with curiousity and love I stare at him with the same. Getting your face licked by a bunny is the best. Good luck with your bunny and get ready to fall head over heels in love 😉

That is great name for a rabbit

[@HisDudeness2020]

He is a handsome boy. 😁 by the way, as he got older, did you decide to get him fixed so he could have a partner or did you adopt an unspayed female so they could have rabbit kits? I'm kinda on the fence because my place is a bit small for multiple rabbits and I'm not a breeder.

[@AlexisZarycki]

Thanks so much. Theo is now 7 and still not fixed. I will not be breeding him but who knows what the future holds!

Great video! Will you do one showing his litterbox setup?

[@AlexisZarycki]

Mahogany Belle oh great idea I can but he doesn’t use a litter box per say, it’s just a cage with some bedding.

[@MahoganyBelle]

Alexis Zarycki Oh ok My lionhead is 12 weeks old and we’re still learning each other. I’ve had him 3 weeks. I’m trying to figure out the perfect setup, especially for the litterbox. I don’t want him sitting in his pee-poop and I’ve already had to switch his litterbox once because the 1st was too tall. Even with the one he has now 50% of the time he will jump in and sometimes he’ll try but then decide to eat any hay pieces that have fallen on the floor. I’m trying to figure out if it is still a little too high for him or if he’s a little lazy😊

[@AlexisZarycki]

@@MahoganyBelle Ah understandable. They are funny creatures aren't they ha! When Theo was little I just got one of these:bit.ly/2E98H9i I put in his cage and eventually I took it out and just switched to using regular paper bedding in his cage.

[@petmomful2260]

@@AlexisZarycki What wood are the pellets made of? Did you get him neutered? I have been looking at one for a couple of days, and I want him bad, but I am not rushing into it because I want to be responsible. But I am a retired grandma, and would have plenty of time to care for it. I am worried, tho, that someone else will get him before I do.

[@AlexisZarycki]

@@petmomful2260 Hi! Did you end up getting the bunny? The pellets are made of paper don’t use wood bedding! The food is hay, corn all on the bags when you visit the store! I use Oxbow pellets for his food. Adult now since Theo is 5

[@petmomful2260]

@@AlexisZarycki I did not. I had to put my cat down, she had cancer. I felt I was jumping into adding another pet, out of grief. I waited a bit, and talked to my daughter, and decided to not get it. I looked at a local rabbit rescue society we have here, and they always have rabbits that need adoption, and older or sick rabbits that need a sanctuary place to live. So if I change my mind I will go that route. Also, I have a free roaming ferret, and I would have to be super careful to make sure to keep the ferret away from the rabbit. I decided to wait for now. Thanks for your help, tho.

My bunnie coconut Laipiti Lapisisi (rabbit stew) in samoan is speckled brown and white. My kiity stitch taught her to go potty in the litter box.

I am looking to get a lionhead! was he hard to litter train?? he is so adorable xx

[@AlexisZarycki]

Not at all

[@AlexisZarycki]

@Jamie Sampson so exciting! So litter training, leave the bun bun in the cage with the litter they sell at the pet store put it in a little box (they sell plastic ones) and then keep the bun in there for majority of time but take out to play. They will learn that’s where they potty. If they have accidents, put back in the cage. Took a few months with Theo, but now he knows!

[@MahoganyBelle]

How tall does an indoor pen need to be for full grown lionhead not to escape? How high can they jump?

[@AlexisZarycki]

Mahogany Belle oh that’s a tricky one theos cage is around 16 inches high and it has a gate to lock him in if needed. If you have a gate, you should be ok!

[@MahoganyBelle]

Alexis Zarycki Have you ever had an issue with him jumping over the gate. 36” high is recommended for most bunnies but I think lionheads are smaller and shouldn’t be able to jump very high. I’m bringing my little guy home Friday and he will have an entire bedroom to himself but I’d like to keep the door open and get a gate that he can’t jump over.

[@AlexisZarycki]

Mahogany Belle a baby gate should be fine!

[@MahoganyBelle]

Alexis Zarycki Thank you 😊

[@richardsdao2948]

We just got a Lionhead Bunny 4 weeks ago. His name is Nacho. We had a 20 inch high pen. After two days Nacho was jumping over it to freedom. After one week we got a cage. The cage is left open. Nacho free roams the whole main floor and goes to his cage for food, water, poops and sleeping. He loves chilling in his cage and free roaming. It's all up to Nacho. He does the Bunny 500 in the morning and night time. They are smart. Nacho has learned two trucks already.
