I Have a Rabbit

My poor old senior rabbit (11 yrs old) is almost totally blind now, and he has started to box me and try to bite when I reach out toward him to pick him up or pet him. 馃槶


I did some research on how to care for blind rabbits, and apparently they do best in small, confined enclosures where nothing ever gets rearranged. So I have ordered this for him.

I hope it helps him to feel more secure, and also helps me be able to pick him up easier when I need to groom him.

Awwwww... it's so wonderful you are taking care of him like that in his final years. I lost two senior cats recently. :(

Aww, poor dude. I had an illegal ferret that went blind as a teen. I couldn't even get him to a vet without knowing I'd be fined. 馃槥

That's pretty old for a rabbit isn't it?

@lasergraph they can live anywhere between 8 and 15 years, depending on their level of care. Mine has been an indoor rabbit his whole life and was fed a very healthy diet, so he has lived a while. :)

@DearAmbellina2113 Probably a shorter expectancy in the wild.
