Ok, first and foremost here, you need to keep your expectations in check. I’ve taken care of a lot of rabbits, and I’ve never had one that was completely untrainable. That being said, some are better than others. The occasional poop on the floor is totally normal. Only one of mine (ironically the most feral) … Read more
It’s everyone’s dream to have a rabbit that bounces over to sit beside you on the sofa and snuggle up to you. Unfortunately, that’s only the reality for some lucky rabbit parents. I believe that whilst you gain your bunny’s trust, and encourage them to accept pets, it’s almost impossible to change your rabbit’s attitude … Read more
Er, of course they do. House rabbits make awesome pets. Seriously though, rabbits are just as good a pet as a cat or dog. Better, actually. Why house rabbits are my favourite pets House rabbits really suit my lifestyle. I really love animals but I like weather, so having a rabbit that I can exercise … Read more

Litter training a rabbit is actually pretty simple (depending on the rabbit) in comparison to e.g. house training a dog. A lot of people are unaware that it’s even possible to litter train a rabbit, never mind that it’s actually pretty simple. Please note that the level to which you can train a bunny varies … Read more
This article doesn’t intend to shame anyone for only keeping one bunny. Some rabbits genuinely prefer to be on their own. I’ve had single buns before – once because her mate died a couple of years before she did, and another that was too aggressive for a mate. Eventually, we were hoping to bond her … Read more
Haha, I bet non-rabbit people think we’re WEIRD. I think rabbits do understand kisses, but not all rabbits like them. I’ve not had my current bunnies for long enough to kiss them.
