Money Saving Tips When Owning A Rabbit

When delving into the world of rabbit keeping, encountering expensive costs is inevitable. We are here to share a list of the ways we save money while caring for our bunnies!

Look for some local farmers who harvest timothy or other types of grass hay. Bales of hay typically range from $8-$12 and last much longer than the $30 bags sold in pet stores. If you choose to purchase from a farmer, make sure to inspect the hay closely. There should be no mold, weeds, or insects visible, and the bales should be fragrant and fairly green.

Growing your own or harvesting greens from outside is a fantastic way to save money and add variety into your bun's diet! Lettuce and herbs are quite easy to grow, even if you don't have a green thumb! When picking anything outside for your bunny, ensure you are familiar with the area to avoid feeding anything sprayed with pesticides and always double check with a trusted source to make sure the type of plant is safe to be consumed.

Cages marketed towards small animals at the pet store are unsuitable for bunnies and extremely overpriced. A great way to provide more space for your bun while simultaneously saving money is to purchase a dog pen or NIC shelving grids. These are both affordable options especially when buying second hand, and are also useful for covering baseboards when you free roam your pet.

A cheaper alternative for litter boxes are plastic storage tubs. Here in Canada, the dollar store also sells cat litter boxes! In terms of litter, we use wood stove pellets. It is $5 for a 40 lb bag and is extremely absorptive! Some bunnies have trouble adjusting to stepping on the pellets, so in these cases we put a very light layer of hay on top for their sensitive little paws.

Crafting toys with materials you already have laying around the house is another great way to save money. This adds more variety and enrichment into your bunny's life!

While there are ways to cut back on costs when owning a rabbit, it is never a good idea to rescue this pet if you are in a tough financial situation. Booking yearly checkups can stop any health problems before they progress. Additionally, emergency trips to rabbit-savvy veterinarians are costly but unavoidable if your furry friend gets sick unexpectedly. If you aren't able to set aside a sufficient amount of funds for this purpose, a rabbit may not be the best pet for you.

We would like to express our gratitude to the Wilkinson family for their generous donation of litter, toys, treats, hay and a variety of other care supplies. Their beloved rescue bunny passed away recently, and we can tell that she was a very much loved and spoiled girl. Her favourite activities were running through her tunnels, playing with cups and standing up on her back legs for treats 💜 May Muffin's legacy live on forever in our hearts 🌈🐇

Vacation Guide: Leaving Your Rabbit Under A Sitter's Care

As rabbit keepers and pet parents alike, we've all had to make the difficult decision of who to ask to care for our pets when going away for vacation. It can be a daunting task to find a rabbit savvy individual to look after your fur baby. So, we've compiled some tips that may help ease your anxiety when leaving your bun under someone else's care.

First and foremost, find someone you can trust to take care of your rabbit. This can be a family member, friend, neighbour, or even legitimate pet sitter.

Ensure you write up a concrete set of instructions for the bun babysitter. I've added an example of what I send to my sitter who always does an excellent job of looking after my rabbits while I'm away.

Please stop by to check on the rabbits twice a day. Ensure their hay mangers are always filled and their water bowls are topped up. They get an 1/8 cup of pellets each in their snuffle mat in the morning, and greens twice a day. I have left their pre-made salads on the bottom shelf of the fridge. Their litter along with the dust pan and vinegar cleaning solution for cleaning their litter boxes is beside their pen. They can be spot cleaned every two days and fully emptied once a week. Thanks so much for looking after them for me!

Feel free to also add any other instructions such as medications or free roam time in this note along with your veterinarian's contact information in the event of an emergency.

If you have a strict vegetable plan that you feed your rabbit daily, you can prepack the portions and leave them in the fridge so your sitter simply has to pour it into their bowls.

It can be beneficial to bring the sitter you've chosen to your house beforehand so that you can show them your routine firsthand. Following along in real life is typically easier to learn. However, also leaving a care checklist by your rabbit's enclosure as a reference is good practice.

We hope these tips will help put your mind at ease in situations when you have to leave home! 🐇

Hoppy Easter!

We would like to take this opportunity to raise awareness for the hundreds of bunnies who are mistreated, surrendered, and even dumped following this holiday.

Most pet stores portray rabbit care extremely incorrectly. Product labeling shows keeping these creatures locked up in cages so small that they can hardly move. Rabbits require a great deal of exercise, enrichment, and socialization, just the same as any other pet.

Please visit our website for care resources if your family is thinking about bringing a bunny into your home, and consider adoption versus purchasing a bunny from a breeder or a pet store 💕🐇

Meet Bunbun and Lilly, two adorable mini rexes! This bonded pair is looking for a foster or forever home. They are both fixed, vaccinated and are accustomed to free roaming! Bunbun has a very outgoing personality, does not like to be picked up, but loves if you lay on the floor with her and will let you pet her for hours. She will even nudge you if you stop too soon for her liking! She is very smart and loves to play and throw things. Lilly is more timid, but will let you pick her up and cuddle. She is less likely to nudge for affection, but still likes being pet when the mood strikes her. She is more of a follower to Bun, and is the submissive of the two.

Their care supplies such as food dishes, blankets, toys, and grids for bunny proofing will all be sent to their new home. Please contact us if you are interested in adopting or fostering this pair! 💙
