I’ve been seeing this question lately. So, here’s my two cents which should be more like two million dollars since I’m a bunny and know how the care should be.
Anyway, we are very social. We like to have the companionship of our humans and other bunnies. I need mama to rub my head and give me her undivided attention. Also, life was much better once Lacy came to live with us.
We eat pellets, hay, and produce. Some of us eat more than others. I love to eat. Okay, so we don’t always eat food. Wood and electric cords are very tasty. Well I could go on and on…(Note from Mama: cord protectors save electric cords and possibly a bunny’s life.)
We like to pee in the same spot all the time. So, if we start peeing somewhere, then put a litterbox there. And we like carefresh pet bedding in our litter box. It keeps down odor and won’t hurt us if when we nibble on it. Apparently, there are other brands on the market. This is the one mama found and we like it.
Going to the veterinary for a check up is very important. Finding a rabbit doctor is crucial for your pets survival. Rabbits are not like any other animal, so your veterinarian needs to understand how our bodies work. Everyone is really nice at my vet’s office and both Dr. Pursley and Dr. Roberts specialize in rabbit health along with other exotics and the more common pets. Your bunny’s life depends on getting a veterinarian who knows bunnies.

I couldn’t agree more…finding the right vet is crucial.
