Looking to introduce rabbits into your home? 🐰🏡🐰

There are so many reasons why you should adopt rabbits from reputable rescues and not buy from pet shops or breeders:

🩺 Rabbits will already be neutered saving you a BUNdle on medical costs and unexpected litters!

💉 Rabbits will have already been vaccinated.

💵 It’s cheaper!

🧑‍⚕️ Receive expert care advice. As a first-time owner, this is invaluable!

🫶 Rescue back up for life.

👯 You can adopt ready bonded buns. As rabbits should be kept in neutered, compatible pairs, this not only saves you twice the cost, but the time and effort in bonding buns too 🐇🐇

So if you are thinking of adopting pet rabbits, please visit your nearest rescue centre and

What are some sudden behavioural changes that can occur in pet rodents? And, what could they indicate? 🐀

Behavioural changes can include:

• Rodents who are usually fearful or wary of humans have very suddenly become easier to handle.
• Rodents who are usually friendly and easy to handle suddenly become fearful or even aggressive.
• Social rodents living in pairs or groups who suddenly fight with their bonded companions.
• Rodents who are usually happy to be touched in a certain area who are now guarding this area or are reactive.
• Sudden changes in routine, for example, rodents who are usually active at night being seen frequently in the day.
• Increased time spent sleeping or hiding.
• Previously content rodent that is now ‘destructive’ or trying to escape.

Potential causes of behavioural changes:

• Pain and illness - painful rodents may become unsettled, reactive and dislike handling even when previously well handled. This may cause issues within social groups and cause fighting to occur. However, they may also act in the complete reverse, with rodents suddenly being extremely docile, non-reactive and dull. If you suspect your rodent is painful or unwell, they must be checked by a vet ASAP. Their health can decline very rapidly!
• Fear and stress - Rodents can become suddenly stressed or fearful for many reasons. Perhaps there are changes in the environment such as loud or unsettling sounds, other predatory pets such as cats, dogs or ferrets causing fear, inappropriate husbandry with lack of safe spaces to retreat, inappropriate cage size causing stress, rodents who are being picked on in social groups and more. Assessing the rodent’s living conditions, both inside and surrounding the enclosure is essential in identifying the source of stress. This still often indicates a vet check, as you can discuss the possible causes with your vet and rule out any pain or illness!
• Hormonal changes - As our rodents grow and develop, they will experience hormonal changes that can impact their behaviour both directed to us and their bonded companions. What can be done to ease any unwanted behaviours in this regard completely depend on the species at hand, pushing the importance of researching your pet’s normal behaviours so you know what to expect! 🙏🏻

Did you bring your buns inside for the winter? With spring just around the corner, you might be wanting to move them back outside again. If you are, there are a few important things to consider…

Firstly, don’t go from one extreme to the other! Your rabbits will have grown accustomed to indoor temperatures and could have shed their winter coats, even if you moved them into a shed or garage, so you must take this into consideration. It might be best to move your rabbits into a cooler space first to help them acclimatise.

Remember, it might be getting sunnier but it is still cold outside, especially at night, and we have had a lot of storms recently! Please make sure that your rabbit housing is weatherproof and protected from the elements 🌦️
