Dissolving Dig Box

We have bunches of these environmentally-friendly packing pellets from Doctors Foster & Smith, and I tried to give Bella an alternative to digging in the litter box. She picked a pellet out of the box, and ate it. It's just made of paper, so she didn't nibble for long. Charlie at least hopped into the …

It’s Bella-geddon…Again!

"Bunny Kiss!" Bella has a new pattern of chaos as of late. Around 1pm yesterday my brother had this odd feeling that something, somewhere was wrong. After realizing Bella was not in her usualy spot, asleep, he eventually discovered her ripping into the baseboard under my parent's carpet. Somehow, she managed to pull out a …

Rip Out that Fur & Carpet!

Charlie's bald spot is still growing thanks to Bella's aggressive grooming but he's getting a white mossy new coat growing in. On the other end, his butt and backside are full of fluff! I've already had to put him on a table twice to groom him. He's never been this fussy about grooming him on …

Do They Make Toupees for Rabbits?

Charlie's going bald-er. He's got an even bigger bald spot on his head now. He doesn't seem to be bothered by it, fortunately. I can manage a comb-over for him. Bella is certainly an aggressive groomer. Lately Charlie has decided that his favorite pillow is Bella. She's soft, warm and even vibrates a bit. I …

Why Is My Bottom Wet??

Charlie was grabbing at some hay on top of a straw box and then, as I figured he would, jumped on top of the box to get at the hay better. Unfortunately, the box was a bit tippy and plop! He fell butt-first into the water dish. I rushed over to help/clean up the water …

I used a pet hair roller on Charlie this morning, and to my surprise, it pulled off loads of his fur! It's freakin awesome. I'm going to use this from now on to pluck him. He seems to tolerate it at least. My god is he eating! I'm going to the store every few days …

Charlie was in and out of mom's room all day. The window was open so he heard a lot of street noises. He decided to start eating the wood under my dresser and made such a mess. He kissed me several times today, wet, and once while my mouth was open. He started squeaking while …

Second Vet Visit

"I had to chase Charlie to get him in the carrier, and then he broke the zipper and broke out. He was not happy in the car, but calmed down at the vet. He sat down several times and ate hay, but not the carrots. He was even better behaved than last time and was …

This morning I plucked a bunch of fur from Charlie's back. He is definitely in the beginning of his summer shed. Poor boy, I hope this is a lighter one. He's still good about letting me groom him though. Mom blocked off her room in the daytime so she didn't have to be afraid of …

…Charlie Asserts Himself

"Charlie chewed Jason's shoe this morning. I hear, ""No! Charlie, No! Charlie!"" Silence. ""Thank you."" That was Charlie leaving the room so Jason could fix his shoes. I swear that rabbit is like a super genius. He grunted when I pet him when I woke up. He seems to grunt a lot more often now. …
