oohh I see.. to make them feel tired them first. Not sure if it would work with my bun but I'll try

Im doing the same right now. Since she does not trust me fully yet, i'll just wait till shes chilling at one spot.
Then go near her, pat and comb her

the best way is to bribe them!
i lure them with slice of apple, and let them sit on my lap
after 2-3 days u repeat the same thing, they will automatically follow wherever u go in the house

Yeah, I guess bribing does work too hehe

Just another question, where do you guys usually buy Alfalfa and Timothy hay besides from pet shops? I'm actually planning to introduce Timothy to my bun and mix together with Alfalfa and my Alfalfa hay is running out too. Oh, and any brand to recommend too?

there is two option
if u want the cheapo unit, get it from Mudah.my, but its not so fresh. some of the hay turned into yellow. but still my rabbit eat them non-stop.
if u want it fresh, u buy from the market in garage sales or Critterz.com. they sell it rm20/kg. its not cheap and its not expensive. its just a normal market price.

but for me i think it does not make any difference. my rabbit eat it anyway

my rabbits don't eat and shit outside their playpen

u mean they dont eat at all? or only hay?

Inside playpen very greedy.
But outside they quite discipline no eat no shit.

Btw anyone knows where to make custom rabbit enclosure?

then it should be good for u rite

yup, but can't bring them out too far.

but i thought its such a nice to have bunny that dont shit outside of their playpen.
at least u can have 0 worries on your house whenever they play around
as for me, i need to keep it clean almost everyday and make sure they dont shit behind my kitchen and under my sofa

Well depends.
If its not considered their territory in visiting mode they don't shit.
But if they roam it everyday they will shit there.

buy "panacur for rabbit" imported ebay uk,

or buy fenbendazole for rabbit , from this ,
http://fayumadumidae.blogspot.com/p/mini-pet-shop.html

but if u want panacur fast , I hv , I sell u rm100 / unit ...

note panacur is calculated for rabbit the quantity.

Question: Is it okay to give rabbits cold vege?
from fridge or freezer.

Its okay if its really hot dry days. But depends on your rabbit actually.

Rabbit are a clean creature by nature. Its not recommended to bath them with water but if your rabbit smell awful, you could use dry shampoo instead or I just rub a small bit of cornstarch in the fur and brush it off.

If you're worried about your rabbit's health, you could do a normal checkup (nails, teeth, feel the body, and turn it over to check the bum). I adopted a rabbit with scabies, matted hair, one missing fingernail, digestion problem (small dry poop) etc. First few weeks, its like taking care of a baby. Now he's better and healthier now.

I'm using chipsi strawberry scented wood chips because its the cheapest of the bunch and I have no problem with it so far. There are no reliable studies that prove softwood are dangerous for rabbits other than rabbit sites saying it. There are paper-based pet litter too which you can find on petstore.

The only problem with respiratory problem among rabbits was animal studies on occupational hazard or whether you and your rabbits are allergic to them.

Rabbit urine can have a lot of colors (like humans) but red urine is nothing to worried about and is associated by diet pigments. Hematuria (blood in urine) is a more severe case (can be kidney failure) but it will look more red-brownish (clot) than true red, painful abdominal palpitation and enlarged bladder but if you're worried about it, go to a vet.

During warmer days, you can give them frozen bottles to cool down. Cool veges are fine as long as they do not contain too much water e.g. lettuce.

nowadays are freaking hot so i use frozen water bottle for my bunny to play with.

problem with the frozen water bottles, it will condense and wet the fur. I have an adult lionhead with wooly coat so I don't really like moisture on him.

if possible, on really hot dry days or when you feel their ears became too warm to the touch, put him indoors or shaded areas and feed him water on syringe.

Fortunately mine all live indoors with fan on
