So this little princess is staying with me. Her mother "overcleaned" her at birth and took away one of her paws. Additionally to that, she has a prolapse. Despite all that, she is full of life and mischief. I have to keep an eye on her prolapse but her missing paw does not hinder her at all. She wil live with her mam and auntie. Now I need to find her a name.
Any suggestions?

Five top tips to keep rabbits and Guinea pigs safe this winter! ❄️

🐰 Housing should ideally have shelter from the weather, such as run covers that can be used to keep the rain off your pet’s home.

🐰 During the colder months, make sure drinking water doesn’t freeze, and provide lots of bedding and fibrous food.

🐰 It is important to cover any housing with a blanket or quilt and waterproof materials when temperatures drop – while also leaving space for ventilation.

🐰 Where possible, you should also consider between wall insulation for rabbit and guinea pig housing to prevent extreme fluctuations in temperature.

🐰 In extreme weather conditions, you might need to consider bringing pets indoors.

In our last post, we mentioned that rabbits don’t like to be picked up or handled. But handling pet rabbits is essential for grooming and cutting their nails.

In the wild, rabbits’ nails are worn down naturally by digging burrows and hopping around on rough surfaces all day. Most pet rabbits cannot do this, so manually cutting their nails regularly is essential for their health – which means having to handle them.

While we know that this can be very difficult, you should NEVER trance your rabbits to make the job easier. Trancing is very cruel, no matter how easy it makes the job.

To cut your rabbits’ nails, you can either hold your rabbits with its backside supported as if it is sitting up to cut the nails or place it on a towel on a worktop and very gently pull the foot to the side to get to the nails.

If you aren’t confident with cutting your rabbits’ nails, then you can ask your vet or vet nurse to show you how to do it safely. It’s fairly straight-forward, so it’s worth knowing how to do it! 🐾

🐰 Here’s a great example of how you can use to create a series of tunnels and runs which are connected to a converted garden shed

🐰 Providing the rabbits with lots of opportunities for them to display their natural behaviours and also have lots of places to hide and feel safe whilst providing an enriching environment for them to live in

This runaround set-up includes:

Connection kits
Tunnels
Covered housing
