Omg pls look at this comment @101Rabbits, we used to own Ebony when we were little, though we weren’t good rabbit owners, and didn’t know how to treat them or how to bond etc. So we were compelled to give her to a shelter 5 years ago. We only saw Ebony on this channel recently as we are thinking of getting new rabbits and treating them the way they deserve,( by using your tips so thanks a lot 😃👍). Well me and my sister just wanted to say that we are VERY grateful that she has gone to an amazing owner, keep taking care of her for us!! ❤️ , pls give this comment a like so hopefully 101Rabbits see it. ❤️
Lulu is so lucky to have such an amazing pet mommy like you! I can tell you take GREAT care of your rabbits; I am very happy to see that!
Thanks for talking about older buns and the extra care they need. The mess is fine ... It's real
Thank you for giving Lulu such an amazing life, even through old age theres so much love and heart you put into taking care of her. This video reminds me of my senior rabbit. She died at 9 years old from a different health problem and also had arthritis. I used to groom her a lot on top of my washing machine as well..so this video definitely brought out a lot of emotion for me, I wish I could've had the chance to try arthritic relievers and therapies for my rabbit. Please do more videos of this stuff, and of the rabbit massages. I used to massage my rabbit to relieve pain, I think they appreciate it. But I'm still interested in learning more, so I look forward to these videos based on senior rabbit care.
you are an amazing rabbit caretaker, I admire your dedication. I had owned 3 rabbits as a kid and after watching your videos, there's so many things I was doing wrong and didn't know about rabbits.
Both of my current bunnies are sisters and they are about 3 years old
I’d love to see a video of the massage techniques you use on lulu!
Me too!
This was a tough video to watch but I'm a wimp about needles. It's amazing how much you care for her and for all your buns!!!
I loved this! Lulu is so cute! Please get another bunny! Nice video Haley!
You are very good rabbit owner!
Lulu is so cute hope she gets better
Yay I love how much you care for your rabbits
I really wish I had this info when my rabbit was older and had arthritis and senior bun problems. Unfortunately we had no rabbit vets in the area and there was no internet back then. I wish so much I had known the things I could have done to make him happier like you have Lulu.
Trader Dave if you ever have a rabbit again, you will now know better. I also have an 8 year old rabbit atm and I'm only just learning about all these forms of care for them :)
Oh yeah! For those of us who had rabbits in the dark ages, watching these videos is so guilt-inducing. Atleast I was free roam, but it was all pellets and water bottles. When my senior got weak back lags, the vet said it was just nature's way of weeding out older prey animals. We didn't even know it was arthritus
I'm the biggest fan of yours I love your rabbits they are so cute I subscribed
One of my rabbits is turning 6 this year and I've been hoping you'd make some videos on senior care. Thanks for another great video!
Go, Lulu!!
I love your channel and it gives great advice
I might be getting 2 rabbits and your videos are extremely helpful😊❤️
I recommend glucosamine! I tried Cosequin for my buns (the cat kind), but my bun Spike hated the tuna flavor, lol. Ophelia didn't mind, goofball. I recommend Oxbow's Joint Supplements, which are glucosamine tabs. I can't believe the improvement I've seen in Spike since giving him two joint tabs a day (in addition to small doses of metacam, which didn't help on its own, surprisingly).

If and when you finish the Sherpa fabric liner, I would love to see how you made it and where you got it from in another video.

Hi lulu😍
Good night Lulu.
When will the next video going to be up? I can't wait!!!!!🐰 What will the next video be? Love your videos!!!!!
Who disliked this? You are amazing : )
I tried to buy a shirt and it wont let me it just keeps saying postal code is incorrect :( @101Rabbits
What are your thoughts on the oxbow joint supplement? Would it be good for preventing joint issues? And if so at what age should you start giving them the supplement?
I have a 9 year old spayed female Dutch mix yay twinning
Hi I have a rabbit and where we live we don’t get hay in shops, what should I feed rabbit, because she doesn’t really eat vegetables she doesn’t like it or she just doesn’t eat it only carrots she eats
Hi. Could you show us massaging Lulu and some tips about it? I have a very young bunny who enjoys massages (no health reasons, I guess it's partially because she's very active), but it's a trial-and-error. It would be nice to know how to do it correctly and there's not tht much info about it online. ^.^
Where did you get your wood cages from????
Are you going to sell some of the Sherpa cage liners? I'd love to purchase some.
I haven't decided yet as the fabric is more pricey then basic fleece. But I would probably do custom orders for them if people were interested!
13th comment love you!!!!!💕😘❤️💕😘❤️
Have you tried many herbal treatments and if so which did you find most effective?
Was Lulu your first bunny on the channel since she’s a senior?
Mr. Moji Gaming no she had a holland lop I believe named Mocha, he was sooo cute and sweet ❤️
Check out the older videos of Mocha who was Lulu's husband/mate.
Mocha ruled!!!
I really enjoyed watching some of the older videos with Mocha when he was younger and much more active. It was so sweet seeing how much Lulu and Mocha adored each other.
No
What size is your xpen
(Sorry for all the questions I'm about to get a rabbit)
Question. I have two rabbits. One just turned one year old and the other is 3 months old. I keep them both in a play pen while im at work and are free roam while at home. They both ate young rabbit pellets. But now my one year old should start eating a portioned amount of adult pellets. Would u keep each rabbit in a seperate cage so that they dont eat each others pellets?? They are bonded and are used to being around eachother.
If both rabbits are spayed and neutered and already live together, I would not separate them. Just separate them for feeding times or feed the younger one adult pellets as it wont hurt them. Rabbits don't technically need pellets at all, so I wouldn't worry to much about pellets and feeding separately.
Do you sell those sherpa fleece?
I have a bunny that looks just like lulu
Sis I by the rabbit and I search in Google and there is the 3 months small rabbit want mother milk and if u by small rabbit so that is ded and my rabbit is ded they is bad which sell the rabbits what I will do
LuLu looks a lot like my cousins rabbit Malibu? Also do you know the breed of LuLu because we don’t know what the breed of Malibu? I also got a rabbit 3 months ago and I just wanted to say thank you for helping me care for her the best way I can. I also have some videos of my rabbit Ellie on my channel. It would mean a lot to me if you could check some of my videos out. Thanks again! Love your channel! 🐰❤️🐰
Albino Devil thank you so much! 🐰

HELP
Hi, this may be a lot but I need help and advice! So whats wrong is that my parents surprised me with a bunny cage with pellets, and bedding.. but, the cage is only around 1X3 ft and they won't want to return it or buy anything else because they already spent a lot of money on it and we wouldn't have room for an x-pen. Also I did a ton of research on your channel and found out that the pellets weren't good for my rabbit, and how she shouldn't drink from the bottles that she has been drinking from but she's been eating the pellets and drinking from the bottles her whole life so my mom says that we don't need to change the type of food or the bottles (which I tried to put the water in a bowl and she said no because "it will spill" and I asked to buy timothy hay pellets instead of the type they bought, but she said its to expensive.) Please help me, what do I do???
P.S. If I try to say anything about this stuff my parents will think that I'm just going crazy and they will say "well if this stuff is really as bad as you say, then how is she still alive?" so I can't say stuff or they will literally get annoyed and mad.
I don't know if I'm late tbh! I had the same issue with my rabbits and other pets too.my parents said "bars on the cage are fine"(bout hamsters) I just told her the issue and she didn't seem to care like "they're lying ect. but then when my rabbit went to the vet I got a rabbit care thing and showed my parents as it pointed out the right stuff for rabbits and we now have good food,large cages ect! it really helps and I hope this helps you too;) + Abby Dotson
ok thanks!! :)
What breed is sterling?
So I’m planning on getting a rabbit but my parents don’t really want me to because my other animals will attack it. (Especially my cat.) and was wondering if anyone had suggestions on how to keep the rabbit safe. Also another couple of questions is how big should the cage be and how old should I get my rabbit at?
If you have other aggressive pets a rabbit might not be right for your family right now. I know the last think you’d want is for a bunny to get hurt or killed and that’s possible in a dangerous home. You’d have to have a way to keep the bunny completely separate but still indoors.
The pest cage size is an ‘x-pen’. They are dog exercise pens and are a good size for a rabbit to live in, besides the x pen a bunny should also get a couple hours outside their cage to stretch their paws.
The best place to get a rabbit is animal shelters 100%!!! The rabbits there tend to be pure bred and very socialized and sweet. Rabbits get euthanized so often because of how often they’re given up by unprepared or young owners. Another plus is that they’ll be spayed or neutered for free (a $300 surgery).
Please do more research before getting a rabbit as well, they are VERY high maintenance and expensive pets. A nearby exotic vet and extra funds are a MUST. Rabbits get sick very very easy and have much pricier vet bills than a cat or dog.
Rabbits have very complicated and sometimes pricey diet requirements like unlimited hay, limited pellets, and limited veggies. You should also keep in mind it’s not nice to the bunny to have just one. This means doubling all costs so your bun can have a friend. If you and your family ever seriously intend to get a bun make sure your parents know all this aswell.
Please also do research outside of just TH-cam. Read as many websites and forums as you can, watch lots and lots of TH-cam how to videos to make sure you’re very well versed in rabbit care.
If you are going to let it run loose then do NOT buy a buny. But if you are not and you are going to hold him or her once in awhile and you close the door you will be fine
I wouldn't recommend a cage to be honest. I use an Xpen (when I'm sleeping) so they can move around and stand up and what not. As far as how old, 8-12weeks but look at your local animal shelters to see if there is any to adopt first because bunnies need homes too. Slowly introduce your bunnies to the other animals and monitor all interactions between them. Most Indoor cats will probably be curious and may try to play with them but you can discourage that behavior and just prevent their interaction. If you keep the rabbits in a separate room (such as a bedroom) you can just not allow the cat in (close the door). Otherwise if you don't think you can keep them separated I would suggest not getting a rabbit.
Curious why you use the Gabapentin? Everything else makes tons of sense, and is pretty standard... but Gabapentin in a pain killer for nerve pain, so it doesn't make sense to be using it for arthritis, joint pain, or sore hocks.
Here is a good explanation I could find about using Gabapentin in chronic pain patients:
"Because it appears to work specifically in the nervous system, gabapentin has also shown promise in a variety of nervous system issues, such as seizures and anxiety. It also is a particularly helpful drug for managing chronic pain, which is defined as pain that has been present for over six months. It’s a challenge to find medications that specifically target chronic pain, so it’s reassuring that gabapentin has been helpful for these patients."

Who is the smaller bunny
I have a question : My bunny eats vege but recently instead of eating the whole piece he only eats a bit of it and then like 30 minutes later he eats the rest (ts happening to all his vege) Is this normal for Bunnies?
Yep my bunny does this alllllll the time! Lol 😃
hahahahaha so its normal lol (wants to do emoji)
I have a problem. I have two baby bunnies at the age of 8 and 10 weeks. I havent checked their gender yet.
The bigger bunny has starten to hump little one. This makes the little bunny scream. It has happened twice and I got them 2 days ago.
What do I do? They are not spayed or neuterd
You need to separate your rabbits ASAP. Rabbits should not be housed together after 8 weeks of age until they have been spayed and neutered
Can we do a trade package
Love Ur videos ... Please reply ... I am a youtuber .... 3rd
Hey my rabbit has white thick liquid coming out of her eye i think it might be some infection any tios on what i should do. ❤❤ ly ❤❤
Emily W get to the vet. Maybe try washing with salt water if you can't get there quickly.
Vicky Mc ok great thank u so much xx
Could you give me some advice on my you tube channel
Do bunnies smell?Pls someone answer me❤❤❤
Bunnies are extremely clean animals, as long as you clean up their "area" (poop, urine, etc) the rabbits themselves do not smell. If they do I'd probably take them to a vet.
TheGreymanWalking Thank you for telling me cause my mum says that they smell bad and I really want to adopt a bunny
What do I do when you really want a bunny and your parents say no? Also Love you
Cece Sorenson show them how respsible you are and show how dedicated you are ☺️
If your a minor and don’t/can’t get a job, then don’t, if your parents aren’t completely on board with an animal and just give in, the animal will be neglected, when it comes to proper care as well as vet expenses
Cece Sorenson ok, listen closely, all you have to do is say:
You: Mom/Dad,
Mom/Dad: yes?
You: nevermind, you’ll say no
Mom/Dad: WHAT! Just ask
You: well I really want a pet (insert gross pet here)
Mom/Dad: NO!
You: ugh, can I at least get a bunny then... (with a really sad face)
hi
She is the cutest 😍❤️can u pin this?!
Guess not! You didn't get pinned!
Perfect Piggy damn chill i Hate cats i will kill yrs :)
Sofia Vlogs and games Wtf what is wrong with you psycho!?
Perfect Piggy psycho? Yr name is perfect piggy😑
Sofia Vlogs and games!! How does my TH-cam name have anything to do with the fact that you are saying you will kill cats?
My rabbits live one vinyl fleece, wire, and litter boxes and they have never gotten sore hocks
RabbitCrazyVLOGS that doesn’t make it comfortable you should cover the wire
I agree because if your rabbit does get it then it is going VERY bad for you and your rabbit
Not all rabbits get them. Some breeds just have thinner hair on their feet and can't tolerate harder surfaces as well.
I love your channel but I feel like lulu is your “guinea pig” stick to one thing that works ☹️
So is definitely not a guinea pig. All of these treatments are 100% safe and have been used with arthritic rabbits all over the US for YEARS! The only reason we have to "test" them is because each rabbit is different and responds to treatments differently. Same with humans. That is why we have so many different types of medicines because some humans react differently to things. If we only had one treatment, people who didn't show improvement from that would suffer. That is why there are many treatment options that help different people. Also, each treatment helps with different areas. For example, massage therapy helps loosen up the muscles and increase blood flow to the body which helps the body to overall function better. However it doesn't help so much with the pain that comes from arthritis. That is why I also use a pain medication to help keep her happy and comfortable. Laser therapy works at a deeper level and helps stimulate healing which can heal sores, wounds, and even help with arthritis. Something other treatments don't do. Adequan shots helps restore joint lubrication, relieve inflammation, renew the building blocks of healthy cartilage. Something that pain medication and other therapies don't help with. This is why I choose to do different therapies with my bunny. To make sure I am working all angles to target the symptoms and help treat the problem. I would never do any treatments that were not tested and approved to be safe for rabbits. I also would never do anything a veterinarian didn't want me to do. She most definitely isn't a "test" subject what soever.
