These are the really cute new dwarf rabbits at my pet store. I caught them being active, and that one little guy was just having a hopping fit in his little box. I love these bunnies.

i just purchased 2 7week old dwarf bunnies.i bout them pellets and hay.they are not very interested in the pellets.but also they dont really eat much of either.also they are not drinking much of the water.how can i get them to start eating and drinking?is this something i should be alarmed by?
If they are definatly not drinking, you may need to give them water via syringe.
Mash the pellets up a bit so they are easier to eat.
If they continue to not eat, take them to the vet asap.

These two OAPS, grey male and black female date back to at least summer 1999, maybe even 1998 or 1997 and they are still doing fine. They should really be on zimmer frames but good clean living and rabbit fun and frolicks has seen them through to ripe old rabbit age.

I have two already bonded dwarf bunnies and was wondering if i could introduce another rabbit?
2 Comments »I recently adopted two 1 year old netherland dwarf bunnies and was wondering if it would be possible to introduce another bunny similar in age and size?
Also, if its possible how would i go about doing this?
ps they are male and female (spayed and neutered) and my mom suggested getting a baby bunny? is this a good idea?
As long as the hew one that you’re going to introduce to them is spayed,then it will be fine.
There are two types of introduction:
♦Introducing rabbits on neutral territory
~Use a large neutral territory (i.e. an unfamiliar area to both rabbits). This could be an escape proof area of a garden, a large run or a spare room such as a utility room.
Provide lots of hiding places so that the rabbits can get away from each other if necessary. As rabbits are territorial, be careful not to include items that can be defended. Open ended boxes, open beds and plastic tubes are best.
Scatter tasty and interesting items of food (such as fruit, vegetables and hay). This not only serves as a positive distraction when they first meet, but also each rabbit will associate the other with something pleasant.
Place the rabbits at opposite ends of the neutral area and let them meet in their own time. Some chasing, circling and mounting behaviour is normal and to be expected, but you may have to intervene if either rabbit starts to look stressed or they start to become aggressive. This is really important as a rabbit’s skin is very thin and could tear easily if a fight was to occur. Signs that the rabbits are getting on are mutual grooming, eating together and lying down next to each other.
If the rabbits have bonded sufficiently over the course of the day, it may be possible to house them together overnight. Ideally the housing should be unfamiliar to both rabbits, but if you are using the existing hutch and run, make sure it is thoroughly cleaned and preferably moved to a different patch of grass. It is also far easier to introduce the female rabbit to the male rabbit’s accommodation than the other way round, as females are more territorial than males. If you have any concerns at all, it is a good idea to keep them separate at night (as they cannot be supervised) and carry on with the introduction on the following day. In some cases, the pairing process may have to be a much more gradual process.
♦Introducing rabbits using two runs
~This method allows the rabbits to slowly get used to each other’s presence. It is also useful if you do not have a separate neutral area to do the above, or are unable to supervise all interactions between the two rabbits.
Put the two rabbits in separate runs, and arrange it so they are near or directly next to each other. During the course of the day, swap the rabbits over to prevent the rabbits establishing separate territories. As with the above method, add some tasty treats as a distraction.
When the rabbit’s behaviour suggests they are happy with each other (e.g. lying down relaxed, side by side), you can then introduce them to a joint hutch/pen area, following the guidelines above. Take care not to rush this stage. Some rabbit pairs may take just a day to bond, whereas others may take several.
