Hey all! I got my bunny (liefie) 4 weeks ago! A patient of mine gave her to me as a present! She was 7 weeks at the time and I became concerned after reading that they should not be removed from mothers before 8 weeks.
She is doing well and we have bonded nicely, but I have a few questions.
1. I read that they should not get veggies too early and need to know which veggies I can feed her now (almost 12 weeks old) I am currently feeding her a grass mix with mostly alphafa hay and pellets(always available)! 2 times a day she gets half a carrot. She loves carrot time and jumps on the bed for them immediately when the enclosure is opened. I wanna know which other snax/veggies I can give her and how much? (She poos a lot and they are normal according to all info I read and she drinks enough water)
2. I ve trained her to use a part of her cage for peeing and pooing, but when she is out of the cage, she jumps on the bed to play and cuddle with me and I've tried to teach her to only pee on a section with a towel... But she keeps on peeing close to my body or between my pillows! I don't wanna keep her of the bed as I love the time, but I can't change my bedding every day! Any advice?
3. Games! We play with toilette rolls and pieces o carton which she brings onto the bed... What other toys can I get for her?
4. How do I introduce her to strangers? She freaks if new people enter the house and then hides under the bed until they leave... My mom is amazing with animals and she doesn't even want to be touched by her?
Ill have many more questions as things progress! I wana give her the best care I possibly can! She's adorable!
Thank you in advance
