Rabbit update

Hi readers! I can't believe it has already been 2 years since I got rocky and Flopsy!
They have come a long way since I got them.
They will now come up to me and have a treat. They are still not keen on being touched or picked up but they are getting better.
Rocky is the more confident of the 2 but Flopsy is getting better at coming up to me for treats.
They are still in their big enclosure and only have hay on the top level as it turns out I am allergic to them and they weren't using the top level to go to the toilet.
They have started to use their digging box and are pretty much always using the litter trays.
Rocky and Flopsy are around 4 years old now and will be going onto senior food next year.



I hope you enjoyed this post!

Hi readers! Rocky was a bit silly this morning!
She decided to sit in their grass pot and eat the grass under her.

5 Tips For Keeping Rabbits On a Budget

Hi readers, most people don't really have a big budget for their rabbits so I thought this would be a perfect post.

Tip no.1
Litter train them so you won't use as much bedding. Also buy bedding in bulk if you have the space.

Tip no.2
Use a hay rack so the bunnies won't go to the toilet on the hay!

Tip no.3
Don't overfeed dry food(this will also stop them getting over weight which will cause health issues).

Tip no.4
Buy a good quality second hand hutch or build one yourself. My recommended size: 1.8m(L) by 50cm(W) by 50cm(H) DOUBLE story for a pair of rabbits.

Tip no.5
Put a small amount of money aside for vets bills each month. This will be good for emergencies as well as routine checks.

I hope you find this useful,

Mo :)

Daily rabbit routine- Jan 2017

Hi readers, I have got a routine established with the bunnies now! It was quite easy but it is very similar to my daily guinea pig routine.

Morning
Around 09:00am I go out and un-cover them and let them out into their enclosure. Then I give them a small amount of pellets and some veggies.

Afternoon
Around 13:30 I go out and check they have food and water still and give them some pea flakes or other treats.

Evening
As it gets darker earlier in the winter I go out around 16:00 to give them the rest of their pellets, shut them into their hutch and cover them up for the night.


This is only a very rough routine as it can vary from day to day,

Mo :)

My rabbits story

Hi readers, I've now got my rabbits! It took quite a long time to build the rabbits enclosure but we did get our rabbits as soon as it was finished.

How I found them
I was searching online and I came across an ad on Gumtree for 2 large rabbits (I wouldn't normally re-home from Gumtree!). When I contacted them they were still available and were fine with waiting a few weeks for us to finish the enclosure. A few days before the enclosure was finished we went to see them and they were so cute I knew I had to have them.

Their story
They were adopted from Pets At Home and the old owners were told they were 2 MALES (they turned out to be 2 females) and that they would not grow any more. They got them neutered and they grew quite a lot bigger! They had bought a double story indoor cage that would have been big enough for their size at the time but they grew. The owners decided that the best thing for them would be to
re-home them.

What are their names?
Remove all the: V's,W's and X's.

VRWXOVCVWKWYVX and VFXVLWOVXPWXVSVXYXV.

I will post some pigtures(hmmm does that work for rabbits?) soon!

Welcome to: Rabbits R Cute

Hi readers, most of you will know who I am but if you don't here's some facts!

Name: Mo
Pets(the most important bit!): 3 guinea pigs(Bramble, Patches and Maisie), 1 small(ish) Fantail goldfish and soon to be a pair of rabbits!
Blogs(I have quite a few.....): 
The blog that got me started!,
The first one for the guinea pigs!,
The product reviews for guinea pigs(and other small pets),
Crafts for you and your small pets
I love taking photos when I'm out and about in the lovely British landscape and of course this new one!
Hobbies: Reading, blogging, watching endless guinea pigs on YouTube(this is how I discovered how cute guinea pigs are), photography and cuddling the piggies(that is definitely a hobby!).

This blog is going to have lots of rabbit care and cute photos of my rabbits as often as I can (with so many blogs it is hard to keep up....Actually haven't done a book review since August! So I probably should do one!). Just so you know I have owned rabbits before but it was before I started blogging so I know their basic needs.

I hope you will enjoy finding out about rabbits and their care,

Mo :)
