Caring for Your New Bunny Friend

Pellets give over 1/4th cup for smaller breeds, over 1/2 cup for larger breeds in the am and pm. Depends on breed of bunny.

Timothy Hay a fistfull in the am and pm

Always make sure they have fresh water

Be careful to not feed them too many treats or too much food. Bunnies can get diarrhea and that is one of their number 1 causes of death. Watch their poop. If they look like they are getting diarrhea take them off pellets and feed them hay. I will also feed them some celery to make sure they are getting enough liquid, if they are not eating. If taking them off hay doesn’t turn their poop around, email me and let me know what is going on and I will try to help.

A good natural treat is a little old fashioned oats!

Do not feed your bunny head lettuce. It causes diarrhea.

Do bunnies need a companion bunny? No that is not necessary. Turn the 
radio or tv on for the bunny when you are away. Have several toys (empty
boxes, etc.) for the bunny to play with. When you are home let the 
bunny out to socialize with you.

Do bunnies need to be fixed? Honestly, there are pros and cons each way.
Research to decide what you want to do. Since my bunnies do not get
fixed, I am not an expert on that subject. 

Can you litter train bunnies? Yes, I have heard from quite a few people that
have my bunnies that potty training them was not a problem. I do not 
suggest cat litter. I have heard from some people that the bunny tries to eat it.
They say since the bunny is already used to going in the cage they leave the
cage door open. When the bunny goes in the cage they verbally praise the
bunny and give the bunny a little treat. After some repetition, the bunny
learns it is a good thing to go in the cage. One lady also lays down some
pet urine pads around in case the bunny can't make it back to the cage.

Depending on the breed of bunny that you buy from me, you may have to comb the bunny. It is easier to keep up with the grooming than to wait and have mats all over the bunny.

Nails need to be trimmed. Some breeds require it more often than others.

Bunny Babysitting- worried about your bun-bun when you have to travel bring it by to have us professionally babysit it. We will groom your bunny while it is here.

Purina Fibre 3 is what I buy for the bunnies. If you do not want to buy a 25 lb. Bag from the feed store (too much for 1 bunny and may go bad) I will sell you a bag. It is a well balanced diet food that is better than some others that you can buy at a department store. I recommend buying it especially for small bunnies who have sensitive tummies and keeping them on the same good quality food.
Timothy Hay/fescue/or orchard grass- I can sell you a bag full cheaper than you can buy elsewhere.

If at any time you can not care for your bunny, like it needs to be cared for, I have a no questions asked return policy. Bring the bunny, in its cage with its accessories, back to me. I would rather have the bunny returned to me and make sure it is being cared for than to have the sweet bunny not cared for. No refunds given.
