Smile Re: my new rabbit

She is beautiful. It's great to know that she has a lovely big hutch to play in, I hate it when people put their bunnies in small hutch with no access to a run and then they just leave them there, poor little things bored out of their minds. Bunnies are much more intelligent than people give them credit for. I had 2 lop eared bunnies for 5 years - Buffy & Willow - they were sisters and unfortunately they started to fight at the age of 4 - 5 months and poor Willow came off worse and ended up in bunny hospital for 4 days, thankfully she recovered but we had to split their run (which was huge anyway) and they were happy to see each other through the wire, there was no aggression then, but once we tried them together without a partition and they fought again.............so back went the partition and they lived happily like that. I guess that is bunny mentality for you My bunnies LOVED plain oatcakes and some dry porridge oats, Willow loved dried BANANA - the kind you get in muesli - they also really enjoyed shredded wheat and I bought these things instead of 'rabbit treats' from the pet shop which are too expensive. Any I am 'rabbiting on' now so will say bye for now and enjoy little Rosie

I agree, rabbits need a run and exercise like any other animal. It's good for them to have a run as well as their hutch/house, it gives them stuff to do and stops them getting bored.

I've had quite a few rabbits in the past and they have all had complete run of the back garden throughout the day if they wanted. They had a hutch with a pen attatched to go in at night or during bad weather.

My old rabbit Snowy used to have the whole garden and he loved it! He used to keep the grass trimmed down
