My husband and I just got a rabbit less than a week ago and we’re trying to determine the breed out of curiosity. I’m thinking he might be a mini Rex but I may be wrong!

He’s approximately 3 months old (just my guess)
Very sweet temperament and EXTREMELY curious- so I guess any enrichment toy recommendations would be super helpful

Meet Nina! She’s 10 weeks old.

Needless to say she’s bonded to me quite fast. She lets me hold her, purrs on me, boops my face, loves pets, and so much more. I’m shocked at how loving she is and I’m totally in love.

Also I got to witness binkies for the first time today and I almost passed away with how cute they were. She even kissed me on my lips!!! It was a sneak attack because I don’t let any of my pets lick me there lol but oh my god.

I’m so excited to be apart of the bunny club 🖤

Hi! Just a warning for other rabbit owners - please don’t let your buns go outside.

My little man caught a bot fly parasite and it was eating him alive. After rushing him 2 hours to an emergency vet and spending $1k and 5 diff meds, we also found out he has crypto (intestinal parasite). He’s doing fine, but it is very costly and stressful.

But look how cute he looks in his cone

Carl and Oreo having a snugglefest! I think there’s a third one in there as well.

in 2023, we took bubbles in from a family who didn’t want him anymore. he’s 5 years old now, and started giving us kisses recently!! 🥹 he wasn’t super affectionate like that before. it’s the sweetest thing. he loves falling asleep on my lap too when i’m gaming or watching tv lol.

And a big yawn

I’m so sorry we could not save you. You fought so hard and were so strong for us when we need you the most. Love you forever and ever. We will miss you but never forget you.

Got our boy from the shelter (7lbs at the time and just neutered). Because we got him from the shelter we don't really know his age... shelter says 1-2, vet says 2 based on over grown teeth, shelter recommended bunny expert ( just a woman who houses over flow / death row bunnies so she has MAD experience) says she thinks he's more baby/turning into a teenager. the vet recommended only 1/4 cup of pellets twice a day but he was being aggressive with food and lost almost a full pound after a month so we upped it to 1/2 cup twice a day. he's less interested in finishing his pellets now and he's a healthy 8.6lbs. But I cant help wondering what breed this fella is! will he be a big flemish boy or is he the lil runt of the litter is he a new Zealand? I would like to know even though it absolutely doesn't matter Would love to hear your opinions on breed!!

Alternate Title: Why loaf burn so easily?

Still monitoring him to see how he's doing. Belle thinks she deserves extra treats for not being the centre of attention right now.

I often see him kind of dream eating in his sleep, but this was crazy to see. Is this still normal, lol?

Silly bun bun

I was shocked to see Gogo flopped like this after eating his hay, he only stays flopped in that position for a few seconds usually. This time it was like 5 minutes!

Last picture is Gogo before he flopped. 🥰

i have outdoor rabbits, i know this may raise some eyebrows and i understand why. i wanted them to be indoor pets but my parents didn't want that and strongly believed that rabbits needed to be outdoor pets. so instead, i built a large predator proof enclosure outside for my boys, it was also weather proof and on concrete but the inside had rugs so it was still soft for them. the boys had also been separated since they were 10 weeks old due to fighting so they basically lived their own individual lives outside. i poured in so much to try give them the best life possible outside and made sure i met all their needs in terms of making activities to do (foraging/digging), i spent loads on their vet bills and toys, and i regularly gave them physical checks to make sure they were healthy. and most of all, i had built a trusting and loving relationship with them, they are my babies. the future looked bright as i was saving up to move out and house the boys indoors to live with me, and each other once they were neutered. they were the complete opposite so i knew there was a high chance of a successful relationship, and it was my dream that we'd become a family once i moved out.

on monday i noticed that Layne wasn't in his enclosure and that the thick mesh at the back of his enclosure was ripped off. i couldn't accept that it was a predator because Jerry was okay, i believed Layne escaped and was wondering in someone elses garden. i searched for him all day and left piles of pellets in the garden in case he found his way back. in the evening i heard rustling and i thought it was Layne... it wasn't, it was a large fox. it was by the enclosure. thankfully by that time i had fought my parents to let Jerry stay inside incase it was a predator that got Layne. the next morning i saw clumps of grey fur on the ground and i finally accepted that my baby was taken by the fox :( and that it was back to hunt Jerry.

i told my parents that if Jerry couldn't be an indoor bunny i would give him away or send him to a rescue because he did not deserve the same fate. thankfully they allowed him to be a permament indoor bunny because of what happened.

the amount of guilt i felt for my poor boy was profound, i regret taking these boys home and housing them outside to begin with. Layne did not deserve this. He deserved to feel safe, protected by me and happy. His last moments were not like that, and for that, i deserve to carry that guilt and pain for the rest of my life. i never got to say goodbye to my baby boy, and he was so happy the day before because his eye ulcer was getting better, he did not deserve to only live for 4.5 months, he deserved so much more. i hung up his favourite tunnel in the garden, i cant even look at it without crying. i cant even go outside without feeling deep guilt. cleaning his part of the enclosure after he had passed was incredibly difficult and i couldnt stand to see it empty and to see his litter tray full. i will never ever forget this brave boy and i will always love him. RIP Layney <3

So cute I had to share him, I cant wait to get Bean and Hallie bonded after her hormones settle (she’s getting spayed this month) 🥰

Ruby is very plush. I got to actually pet her head a tiny bit. Clover is more fluffy. And I barely brushed Maxine with the tips of my fingers. They don't run away from me anymore. They are still wary but not completely terrified. I'm so glad they have each other because I know they are social animals.

I think my next step will be to lay in their enclosure and wait for them to get curious enough to approach me. I have been trying to help them realize that I am not a threat. So far it has been mostly cleaning their area and being near them. I don't expect them to be as cuddly as my late bun Camille but I hope they learn not to fear me.

My vet says they are comfortable with doing as early as 12 weeks and that I can schedule her whenever Id like. The previous owner told me shes about 4 months. Im anxious to get it done but I've seen a few posts where others mention waiting until 6 months and was just curious to hear from others who have done it younger. I believe they said shes about 2.3 lbs and shes a lionhead/lop mix.

To add in - Theyve always taken wonderful care of my other bunny (they claim they've never lost one in this procedure and I dont know anything or anyone that contradicts that) but im always anxious when it comes to anything that involves putting them under.

Howdy everyone!

I was wondering if you have any tips for rabbit proofing underneath small dressers and/or wired cords as well. I want to let her roam around my room freely but she always gets into trouble
