This is why we require vaccinations!! Please get your bunnies vaccinated.

Rabbit hemorrhagic disease virus 2 is a highly infectious, often fatal disease of rabbits. The virus has affected 8 native species (including 2 endangered species) in 14 US states. https://cdm16473.contentdm.oclc.org/digital/collection/NWRCPubs1/id/75293/rec/1

Due to recent events, we think it is a great idea to review an example of an emergency plan for Tornados.

What can you do before inclement weather?
Ensure your pets are microchipped and your information is updated on the microchip site.
Ensure your Emergency Kit is created for each animal.
Please make sure you have a list of emergency vets in case there is an injury after the event.

What should you do in case of bad weather?
Keep an eye on the weather channel, apps, and news. Always get your information from multiple sources to ensure you get the most up-to-date information.
Be prepared to move all animals to a lower level, interior of the house, away from windows. If you have a basement, that is ideal.
If your bunny isn't used to being held, you may want to put them in the carrier early, but I grab them as soon as there is a Watch.
Your basement or safe area should have an emergency kit that contains fresh hay, water, pellets, and any medications your bun is on in case you have to hunker down for long periods. I always ensure I have critical care and gas drops in my kit as well.
You may want to cover the carrier with a blanket to create a safe dark den for your bunny.
When the Watch has been lifted, go ahead and bring your rabbit back to their enclosure when it is safe to do so. Keep an eye on your pet but do it from afar so you don't cause them to worry. Ensure they are eating, drinking, and pooping. As they just went through a stressful situation.

What else do you do in case of a tornado/bad weather? Did I miss anything? Share below!

After the storms yesterday, we just wanted to let everyone know we are safe. Everyone spent some time in the basement until the storms passed. This is a great reminder to make sure you have a tornado action plan that includes all your animals!!

Did You Know?

Rabbits need to eat hay not just because of its nutritional value, but it also helps them grind down their teeth.

At BunnyBinkyland, we provide all our guests with Unlimited Hay that is refreshed 2x daily as well as timothy hay pellets. This is included in your bun's stay's daily price.

If you have any questions, feel free to call/text 630-815-8887 or email [email protected]

Unfortunately, Rabbit Hemorrhagic Disease has made its way to Illinois. Because it is contagious, we must require vaccinations for ALL rabbits being boarded. Please provide documentation upon request. It is an annual vaccine so you can ask your vet during your annual exams!

To find more information about this disease and to find a location with the vaccine, please check out https://rabbit.org/health/rhd/

I've had a rise in people asking if I sell rabbits. I do not. I only do boarding and grooming. However, there are lots of rabbits available for adoption throughout the Chicagoland area.

Consider checking out Petfinder and find local rabbits available for adoption.

One thing all bunny people should know is about Rabbit P**p!!

P.O.O.P!

Keep an 👁️ on your bunny's 💩! A change in the size and/or number of poops can be your first indicator of something amiss with your bunny.

Wild rabbits are at the bottom of the food chain and our domestic rabbits still think they are too. They always hide illnesses so predators don't think that they are an easy meal. We must always be checking to ensure that they aren't sick. Ignoring signals such a change in their poops can result in death.

Did you know rabbits can eat the entire dandelion from root to bulb? Just make sure they are pesticide-free. You can even buy the greens at the supermarket.

What other greens does your rabbit love?

Do you have a single bunny? Please consider adopting a friend for your bun. Not only do they live longer lives when they have another bunny around, they have better mental acuity.

Go to Petfinder and find a friend today!

Did you know your bun's nails should be trimmed every 2-3 months?

Tips for cutting Bunny Nails
1) Use a flashlight (or the flashlight on your phone) to identify the quick
2) Trim the tips using bunny-safe clippers staying away from the pink quick.
3) If you cut the quick, put pressure on it and use bloodstop to stop the bleeding. It may take several minutes.

If your bunny is fussy, you may need to wrap them in a towel or small blanket in what we call a bunny burrito.

OR, contact us to have us trim your bunny's nails. Nail Trims are $10 and super quick. If your bunny isn't easy to get into a carrier, we also do mobile grooming within 40 miles of Aurora (there is a travel fee).

Call/ text 630-815-8887 to schedule an appointment!

Today is National Heat Awareness Day. So it's a great way to talk about keeping your bun cool.

Try a frozen water bottle
Put ice cubes in their water. Make sure they have cool water and that they are hydrated.
Put a tile square in the freezer so they can lay on a cool surface.
Make sure your buns live in an air conditioned space.

What do you use to keep your bunnies cool?

Very busy day . This bun came in with a big f***l ball that needed removal and we did a sanitary groom as well as a gland cleaning. Now he's happy to hop without di*********es weighing him down.

I hope you have a Hoppy Easter. As a gentle reminder, rabbits do not make good gifts. They are an 8-10 year minimum commitment and have very specific needs. Please research before getting a rabbit to ensure your family will be a good fit for caring for a bunny. If you are interested in getting a rabbit, please consider fostering. Its a great way to get support while you learn about caring for the bun and a great way to see if the bunny is a great fit for your family. There are many rescues looking for fosters. Post your favorite Rabbit Rescues in the comments below!!
