Caring for your new Rabbit and HAPPY EASTER!- CLICK HERE!

When I was about 10 years old, I got a little bunny rabbit for Easter and didn't have a clue on how to care for it. I figured some carrots from the kitchen and all would be fine.

Here are some tips to help you care for your new Easter Rabbit:

Bunnies are very clean pets and do not need baths unless they are having bathroom problems or prone to getting poop stuck on thier rear ends. If you do need to bathe your bunny, use water only or a gentle rabbit or kitten shampoo like Bunny Bath Shampoo 6oz.

Don’t stick your rabbit completely in water – bathe only the dirty area. Towel-dry your rabbit and don't forget to give him or her a rabbit treat.

A rabbit’s nails can grow to be very long and sharp, and can be uncomfortable for the rabbit (and even you too). You can clip the nails with a guillotine-type nail clipper, the type made for cats and birds, available from any pet supply store. RabbitMart carries these also.

Wrapping the bunny in a towel may help to calm her and prevent injury to you or the bunny from kicking. Bunnies may kick when scared.

Vitakraft Carrot Drops for Rabbits are a perfect treat for your rabbit. These wholesome and tasty treats are a nutritious and satisfying way to reward your new Easter bunny.
