  Mini Lop Advice Hi All, I am hoping to adopt a mini lop rescue in the near future. I have a friend who adopted a bunny from the same organization (Minnesota Companion Rabbit Society) and have a great vet recommendation from her. I am looking for advice specifically for mini lops -- what is the best cage for a mini lop indoors? Can they go on a harness? What should I be aware of? I have had many pets during my life, but never a rabbit -- I want to be as best prepared as possible! ​ Thanks!

  

  ChonkiestBunny replied:

  There's not much different for the care of mini lops compared to other rabbits besides the fact that they're more prone to ear and dental issues. Rabbits shouldn't be in cages, so an exercise pen would be the ideal indoor housing. Harness depends on the individual rabbit, some hate it, some are fine with it. Harnesses come with their own risks so familiarize yourself with that. [Rabbit.org](https://Rabbit.org) is where I would go for care info for rabbits. Hope you find your perfect bunny match! Good on you for adopting from a rescue!

  Looking for shelters in Edmonton that have bunny rabbits

  

  munkymu replied:

  Your friend should check out info at [http://www.rabbit.org](http://www.rabbit.org) if they haven't already, as much of the information that people assume about rabbits is wrong and a lot of people who haven't done their research are unpleasantly surprised. They might also want to consider adopting two rabbits (if they can afford it and have the space) as rabbits are social animals and if your friend works full time and the house is empty the rabbit will be lonely. Other than that, the Humane Society almost always has a few rabbits up for adoption.

  Ashley G. asked:

  Need advice...first time owning a rabbit. Woke up this morning to this red splatter in her cage....looked all over and no cut on her body so only can assume it is pee or vomit as her poop is normal. No change in diet. Fast forward to this afternoon, i feel like she is swelling or has more 'rolls' in the front than normal. She is active, hopping around and eating like normal but I am worried about her. Is there a good rabbit vet...on a saturday?

  Hi, I'm looking to buy my daughter a pet bunny and was wondering if anyone knew of local breeders with babies. Also, recommendations as to where to find a reasonably priced well built cage, or perhaps referrals to people who would independently be interested in building this cage... thank you!

  Ashley B. asked:

  Where is the best place to get rabbits spayed/neutered? FREE

  

  Delaney W. replied:

  If you have a female rabbit and don't spay they are more likely to get uterine cancer at an older age. Check out rabbit.org for more info on it but I called around about a year ago for this specific reason and I want to say someone in piper city did it and then somewhere in Kankakee.

  Maryellen S. asked:

  Any bunny lovers out there know of a low cost/free spay and neuter clinic for bunnies in the area? Any info would be appreciated.

  

  Linda K. replied:

  There aren't any low cost spay neuter for bunnies in the area, but you can look up some bunny groups for their vet recommendations. Females are more expensive and males are a little less expensive. There are listings from rabbit.org, Bunny Bunch, and Zooh Corner. You can try the vets up here, but they aren't exotic vets by training. It can be costly, but all bunnies should be spayed/neutered. They have health and other issues if they are not.

  EMERGENCY~ ISO RABBIT SAVVY VET! My rabbit means everything to me and is going to starve to death due to her teeth going into her jaw. I need something done ASAP and everyone around here seems to be clueless when it comes to rabbits.

  16082327044.this is the house rabbit society's phone number. They are wonderful and can help you find a good vet. I lost my bunny last year he was 10 and his vet moved. But I know they can help.

  

  Amber S. replied:

  I am a vet tech student and did my internship at Spartan animal hospital in Mcfarland (westside of Madison). Dr. Mike has dealt with my rabbits teeth issues (removed teeth and monthly teeth trims). He specializes in exotic animals as well as cats and dogs. He is also recommended by the house rabbit society.

  Hazel E. asked:

  NYC area folks: my friend is thinking about getting her 6 year old dwarf boy neutered, and was quoted about $250. That seems high since the SPCA did my rabbit's spay as part of her $75 adoption fee (in Boston). Are there reliable and cheaper vets she should be looking in to? She's in Brooklyn. Thanks for any help.

  

  Jennifer A. replied:

  Here's a list of rabbit-savvy vets to call and check prices. $250 is probably going to be low, esp. in NYC metro. http://www.rabbitcare.org/vets.htm Please be sure your friend interviews any vet she chooses: www.rabbit.org./faq-how-to-find-a-good-rabbit-vet

  Krysti B. asked:

  New bunny owner here and I have a question for veteran bunny owners. I recently got a Jersey Wooley. We did a lot of research on not only the breed but bunnies in general. We feel pretty confident in providing a safe, healthy and happy environment for him. His diet is pretty specific, and we looked up on many site for serving sizes, good and bad food, etc. Here's the part I'm struggling with; on many sites experts are saying a weekly ounce to an ounce and a half of Cheerios is a healthy treat and others are saying to avoid any kind of breakfast cereals. We are ATTEMPTING to litter train him and I'm thinking a Cheerio or 2 would be a nice positive treat for him when he does his business where he is supposed to. Any thoughts on the great cereal debate? Lol. Thanks!

  

  Noah B. replied:

  Cheerios and any cereals aren't good for them, also too much fruit can give them squishy poop that will get stuck in their fur (which I think would be a problem for a jersey wool, they're long haired right?) it's recommended that fruit should be given in moderation, about the size of a quarter or less. For feeding information I suggest looking to the house rabbit society, they have a lot of information on rabbits (rabbit.org is the website) good luck on your new bunny :) rabbits are wonderful pets to have.

  Melanie D. asked:

  I'm on NC (Charlotte), and am looking for a low-cost spay/neuter clinic who does rabbits. We rescued and have 10. Would like to get them all spayed/neutered, but our vet will charge over $200 per (shopping around- it's the same), and many of the vets we have spoken to know VERY little about rabbits which makes me nervous. Anyone here in NC and knows of an option? (Or would like another bun?)
