    Awe they are lovely. Do they live in the house or outside? If in the house, how do you control the poo and pee? Can they be house trained?

    What breeds are they?

    My friend had a rabbit where we used to live, she was giventhe run of the house in the daytime. If you called her and said 'give me a kiss' she'd come up and lick your nose!

    Rabbits are much cleverer than people think - they are all different characters [​IMG]
    No, they dont live indoors - they all have des res' outside - hutches with runs attatched so they have access to the run and hucth 24/7. They take A LOT of looking after - not least of all the cleaning out!!
    Fee - yes they can be litter trained quite easily - mine are mostly on their runs - they dont poo in their sleeping quarters [​IMG] Although Molly is very dirty and does it anywhere - much to Gizs distaste :rolleyes:
    Jay, Polly, Pip, Kami and Tui are all Lionhead x, Miffy is Lionheadxnethie and Craig is a Dutch. Molly is a dwarf Lop [​IMG]
    If you really want to get complicated....Craig and Miffy are Pip and Gizmos parents. Polly and Pip are Kamis parents. Tui is a rescue bun and Molly, Craig, Miffy and Giz were my youngest daughters buns but she cant have them where shes living now :( I find them very hard work but love them all [​IMG]

    Hi Marge, since seeing your beautiful bunnies I have been thinking about getting another bunny.
    Last week I adopted two female dwarf lops from freecycle... they are lovely, one is grey and white, and the other brown and white.
    I am a bit worried that the older brown one is making a nest! She has cornered lots of hay and is pulling out her chest fur- I have never known them to do this unless expecting! What do you think? :confused:

    [​IMG] [​IMG] Murphy from Magic Sam, Candi and Cal. We are not allowed to think like that and neither should you, especially on this bunny-loving forum!

    All of my females have had phantom pregnancies Liz - but Id keep and eye on them. I can recommend you a good rabbit forum if you need some advice. They will usually have a litter if theyre going to very soon after making the nest, so have a sneak peak!! You wont see her feeding them cos they do that at night out of the way, but youd need to get the other rabbit out cos she may attack the young! PM me if you have any more questions!

    Murphy - youll have to get past my DOGS first ;)

    Hi Murphy, these rabbits are not at all frightened of cats or dogs.... I would watch out, I used to have a tiny guinea pig sized dwarf bunny who would corner the cat and try to mate with his hind legs....... :eek:
