    How to Butt Bath an aggressive Rabbit

    I recently bathed my buck's butt. He's not hostile, but he found the whole situation to be undignified and distasteful. I bathed him in the bathtub (no sink large enough) and found that giving him a wadded up towel to stand on helped. That way his front feet didn't really get wet. It also gave...

    Stupid cats why cant you stay in the yard!

    I don't know if this helps you since it doesn't sound like you want the cats inside, but my cat pees on clothes. He had several bladder surgeries, and developed a litter box phobia :shock: He ONLY peed on clothes and carpet.I learned that if I don't ever, ever leave clothes on the floor, keep...

    **Update 4/27 Is this a sign that they're pregnant?

    I feed my New Zealands about the same amount. They actually seem healthier than when I got them, even though I feed the same feed as the woman I bought them from. I think a stable environment that is low stress (not a lot of changes, not other rabbits coming and going all the time, no other...

    sudden runny nose, isolated, now gone?

    My doe has regular sneezing fits. The first time I freaked out bad. She was wiping her nose and everything. But I've figured out it's just dust in the hay. Sometimes it's easy to see boogie men everywhere, especially when they're as scary as snuffles. But there are many illnesses out there, and...

    Made a newbie mistake, need expert help

    Well, the dandruff went away soon after we got him home, it just made me curious because the person who sold him breeds pet rabbits, but said she had never seen it before and didn't think rabbits could have dandruff. His coat is black, soft, and healthy everywhere except his rump, which...

    Ok lets open the Cliven Bundy can of worms

    While it is very disproportionate, and the legality of it definitely needs to be addressed, I'm glad of one side effect of the government holding so much land on my side of the USA. If it was private, it would quickly be filled with gaudy houses built by rich Californians buying cheap land and...

    Yeah! Yeah! Babies!

    Your wish is my command. Baby bunny pictures for almost no reason at all. This was when they were much younger: Here's a couple days ago: OMG, WHY AM I UPSIDE DOWN?! Their feet are HUGE :) We had 8, but the runt wasn't thriving, so we culled him, then last week one got smushed by a box...

    Made a newbie mistake, need expert help

    Thanks everyone for your help and your compliments on our buck! I keep thinking I should attempt to pose him and our doe and see if some rabbit experts can tell me if they're well put together. I've been looking at rabbits for a couple weeks now, trying to tell the difference between good type...

    The Moment we all have been waiting for...

    Have you named him yet? He's a cutie pie. He reminds me of an Ewok for some reason (from Star Wars). A Star Wars themed name would be pretty cool (wink, wink). Sorry, everything in our house ends up being Star Wars eventually.

    Made a newbie mistake, need expert help

    How would I clip his fur? I have an electronic Wahl clipper I use on my boyfriend, or some scissors that have a blunt point. The scissors don't seem like the right tool for the job. On a side note, he's inside till his fur dries, and I think he likes being an inside rabbit. He's being so sweet...

    Made a newbie mistake, need expert help

    Hello all, We got our first rabbits about two months ago. They had changed hands several times in a short period of time, so the seller didn't know much about them. She had other rabbits, and seemed pretty knowledgeable. We were brand new to rabbits, and I hadn't found RT yet, so I was relying...

    Dave Ramsey- Does his method work?

    His program is good, but not really revolutionary. If you like him, his books are great and pretty good reads. If he rubs you the wrong way (I've heard his radio show can be pretty annoying), then there are many other financial programs you can follow. I WOULD NOT follow his advice about...

    Are these really New Zealands?

    I wasn't seriously considering buying them, I don't have the cage space at the moment, I was just thrown for a loop because I didn't know NZs could be those colors. It's good to know that non recognized colors doesn't necessarily mean mixes, just not breeding for show. Thanks for schooling me!

    Are these really New Zealands?

    So I'm pretty new to rabbits, and my rabbits are New Zealands. I like them a lot, and was thinking about making New Zealands my main focus in my new meat rabbitry (especially the blue and black varieties, so pretty :D ). I was browsing Craigslist, as one does from time to time, and ran across...

    Yeah! Yeah! Babies!

    In theory, they are purebred black New Zealands. They're a little smaller than the standard, though, so I think of them as Craigslist bunnies. We are at ten days old now, and have only lost one kit (the runt). Our doe has been a very good mamma, even though it's her first time and she's older...

    Yeah! Yeah! Babies!

    Just had our first litter of meat babies! So excited. My mom had come to visit for the weekend, and had to leave at nine-thirty. When we woke up at seven, we checked, no babies. But I did notice that my doe, Doekey, did this weird, whole body twitch, and I thought it might be a contraction...

    Unemployment has been approved

    There are definitely clinic jobs that are nine to five. I spent about 1000 bucks on my NAC degree, but that was in '05. I know it's more now. Ultrasound I think is a longer program, more expensive. But it pays more and it's less physically demanding. In my area we have several colleges that...
