[@familyobringer8299]

Hungry Clone The thing with getting an animal from a pet store supports them. Haven't you seen the cute little puppies in the pet store? DONT BUY THEM! They come from puppy mills. Puppy mills are horrible places where dogs are in very small cages, unhealthy, and never go outside. The female dogs are usually bred to death. The puppies that are born at puppy mills go to pet stores. When you buy a puppy from a pet store your supporting the puppy mills. if you want to know more about puppy mills you should look them up and one more thing, there was a dog that drank from a RABBIT WATER BOTTLE FOR 7 YEARS! This completely destroyed her jaw! Some nice Samaritan rescued her and she lived another happy 5 years. I hope you don't buy another animal from a pet store again.Please respond

I literally bought the exact large cage featured on this video. I also haven't had a bowl of water for my rabbit..just the bottle. I will be adding a bowl in the morning. Thank you for the insights.

[@DrDeliciou]

I made all kinds of mistakes when I got my rabbit when I was a kid. Unfortunately it was pre-internet so we didn't know all the things we were supposed to do. We had an outside hutch with a metal mesh floor. We fed our bun pellets and used a water bottle. In fact we never got our bun neutered nor ever fed him hay in his life. We didn't even know he was a he... it wasn't until much later that I realized the pink pads on his underside meant he was a he. I so wish I could go back in time and raise him like Lennon. He was such a sweet perfect bun and didn't deserve how he was mistreated because of our poor knowledge. I am glad you made a video like this to help new rabbit owners.

[@saphireboop78]

Trader Dave Same. I really wish I could go back and give my bunny more love than what I did for her. There was internet, just that I was a kid and thought itd be simple to take care of a rabbit. I really wish I couldve searched things and learn more about my rabbit. But the moment I dont have a rabbit, I started to search up so many things I never knew. I really wish to go back in time to retake care of her again. ❤♡

[@DrDeliciou]

Saphire Boop I can certainly relate. Yes I was just a kid... and yes we didn't have internet back then... but I still feel guilty for not taking better care of such a wonderful bunny. As kids do... we have all these other interests and concerns that distract us and don't think about if we are providing a happy life for our pets. The thing that made it so bad was when we moved the bunny's hutch got moved WAY WAY far from the house... and he would get forgotten... he was so far separated from the family. If he had been in the house in the basement I would have seen him every day and noticed him paying attention to him giving him the love and affection he so needed and deserved. I wish desperately that I had him back to do everything over again and do it the right way to make him the happiest bunny ever.

[@saphireboop78]

Trader Dave Well at least we know now incase we do get a bunny in the future. And this time, I'll make sure to not repeat my mistakes and give them a proper home.

[@DrDeliciou]

saphire Boop I have tried to make up for it the best I can helping others know how better to make their bunny's lives happier and not make the same mistakes I did. I also have added tributes to my bunny in my books, drawing and writing. I hope to get a bonded pair of buns in the future when I can properly care for them and fulfill that promise to make them the happiest buns possible.

[@saphireboop78]

Trader Dave Wow. Kind of a coincidence, I do that as well, mainly in my drawings and one story I did. And when my friends talk about wanting a rabbit as a pet, I make sure to tell them everything they should do for a rabbit healthy lifestyle. It's really good that you help people incase they might not know how to care for them.

salt rocks taste good

[@mickeymouse2854]

Heres a tip: If your bunny is not drinking its water try putting a slice of apple or banana in the water for a minute or two, take the treat out of the water and this will make the water taste like a treat and that will make your rabbit more willing to drink water! WARNING! Do not do this every time you give your bunny water as that can cause your furbaby to gain un-necessary weight. If your bunny refuses to drink water for even 2 days without the treat trick bring them to the vet as they will know what to do and help you from there. The treat trick is just a temporary thing until you can get your bunny to the vet.

My bunny does not bond with other bunny’s. I adopted her from my aunt last year and she lived alone in a flat. But now she lives in a big outdoor hutch at night and in the day she lives in a large run with a bendy log stick bridge, a large hay rack, kale and other vegetables and I switch her toys every day. I’ve tried bonding her with other bunny’s but she’s very territorial so will not but I spend a lot of time with her in the day but she doesn’t like being touched often she only likes the presence of me. She only has a few pellets in her hutch over night. Should I try bonding her again (she is spayed so she is not as moody as she used to be) 🧡

[@nadhifyulizar4133]

No they're not,same gender would fight..

[@kishaprime9]

Bonding is a slow and methodic practice through which you can get two (or more) rabbits living together peacefully. All animals must be fixed for 6 weeks prior to bonding. Some animals will never get along. Rabbits are choosy about who they room with Bonding can take days to months, so patience and practice is key You can absolutely get two rabbits of the same or opposite sex together. You can absolutely have rabbits that are loners and rabbits that like companions; each one is an individual and has its own needs.

Lots of people AND EVEN WORSE, PET STORES give so much of the wrong information. I learned very quickly that I didn’t need to spend over $100 on a grand rabbit hutch and that my bunny drank a multitude more water out of a bowl than she did out of that darned water bottle.

My rabbit never had a cage. I let her run around the apartment. She was very friendly and liked to jump up with me on the couch. She had a litter box, which she peed in, but she never pooped in it. I was constantly cleaning up pellets. A word of caution. If you let your rabbit run around free MAKE SURE THAT IT CAN'T GET TO ANY ELECTRICAL CORDS. I came home one day to find that my rabbit had chewed into the TV electrical cord and died. That was so stupid of me not to think of that. So, mistake #11.

Jordan Singh don’t be, as long as you disinfectant them every 2 weeks or so with and animal safe method (we use glass bottles and put them in boiling water for about 5 minutes or so, than let them cool down for a few minutes) they’ll stay clean, all you have to do is let you rabbit run around freely (under supervision, of course), clean them and than you won’t have to worry about having your rabbit run out of (or tip over) their water if you’re gone. We can’t even use bowls because of how much our rabbits like to hop over stuff, they always knock down ceramic or metal bowls or chew through plastic ones, so we can only use bottles

When we are home my bunny’s cage is always open for him to leave and run and around freely but some days he happily sits there fully relaxed near the open door and doesn’t want to leave his cage and when you try and get him to leave he hides so actually I think it depends on what your bunny wants as his cage is his home and so his safe place and I don’t force him to leave if he doesn’t want too.

[@x.carbon.x1613]

Lauren McKinlay not true. a bunny will be shy if forced to be in a cage because they can become depressed. it’s not up to you because it is horrible for a rabbit to be in cage

[@laurenmckinlay4006]

April’s Rabbit Care considering you haven’t met my bunny or his vet who can’t get over how relaxed he is around people and also how well he is looked after he is most definitely not shy or depressed. Some days he just likes his cage and sometimes he comes and wants to be picked up. Yes believe it or not he likes to be held, Ik this because he bunny purrs, nustles into me and his ears are completely back and relaxed, just like in his cage whenever I am near. If you know your bunny and their moods, like I do, then that’s the key for them to be happy and content, in or out their cage.

I really, really wish I'd known this information when I was a kid and was looking after my pet rabbit.

I learned the hard way that most "regular" vets really only specialise in cats and dogs, and that she needed to be taken to an exotic vet (which seemed strange at first because I didn't really consider a rabbit to be an "exotic" pet). It's great to see that there's lots more info out there for rabbit owners nowadays.
