She makes better food for her rabbits then I make for myself
Yea but its completely unneeded. Rabbits need only hay or hay based pellets, most of veggies contain a lot of water and should be fed sparingly (leafy greens are ok but only some of them) same goes for fruit that is high in sugar and can cause very soft cecotrophes or gas problems so it should be fed only as treat and definitely not everyday (like many youtubers do for some reason)
you can feed your rabbit some fresh herbs (dandelion, mint, basil) because thats natural for them and wont cause any trouble if you overfeed them
Earl Grey's eyes look so much better than when he first came to you! I am so happy that they are both doing well.
Lady Crow He's beginning to trust that nothing bad is going to happen when he's held ❤
I've had rabbits since I was 8, the first two lived alone without a companion. My last rabbit died of old age a few months before I moved out of my parent's house. They really wanted a new one and even though I wouldn't be around much I was able to convince them to get two. They're so happy together, always grooming each other and stuff like that. I'm so glad that they don't have to be alone.
Fluffy bunnies!! What a perfect end to the day :-)
When she's introducing the rabbits, Iwas amazed that such an adorable llittle creature could be known as one of nature's horndogs and punching bages lol
AHAHAHAHA I COMMENTED EARL GRAY!!!! lol I know many other people did too but I just feel special ahahaha.
Just when I think my day couldn't get any worse you come along with two very cute buns and a bonus Kemosabe to make my day a little better and I thank you.
Thank you for rescuing these guys. I am a very proud bunny dad and wish I could save every one of them in the world.
Hazel is so precious! I also have a Netherland dwarf. She's such a sweet, calm rabbit.
These rabbits are so absurdly cute. Goodness.
A preschool class for children with disabilities that I work in just got a bunny for a class pet and, while I'm glad the kids get a chance to be around animals, that poor bunny stays in a tiny cage all day, has kids screaming and grabbing at him, and is almost always showing signs of fear and distress. I just really hope that the rabbit's actual owner takes him home permanently soon.
No preschoolers can be trusted with rabbits. That's just not the kind of pet for such young kiddos.
especially if they're brain washed by Bugs Bunny of the whole Bunnies + Carrots thing...
make sure the owner knows how to take care of it! maybe show them 101 rabbits youtube channel
Thank you for being amazing! Rabbit breeder here, and I LOVE your videos :)
Yay for Earl Grey & Hazel, they'll be so much happier with a friend. How weird that you post this today - I'm trying to bond a quad here at the sanctuary, it's so heartening to see a successful bond - really gives me hope I can get our 4 together. Our 11yr old is surprisingly mellow about it all :) Thanks Jessi
Earl Grey looks so soft! Oh my goodness ♥ I'm glad their introduction worked out! (also those aratinga screams, wow, haha)
We had to "date" our rescue bunnies in the bathroom for 6 weeks before they accepted eachother. They absolutely hated eachother and we nearly gave up, but now they're totally in love. We had no idea it would take so long for them to become friends or that bunny bonding was such a task!
oh ! I have a similar problem. how often were the dates ?
Get out of their "hare"?!?
Aww!!! All the heart eyes for the bunnies and Kemo! Was that Cheek's enclosure on top of the hutch?
Those are the cutest rabbits I've ever seen in my life!!
Ecuador audio-bombed this video
Yay! This is the episode that I have been waiting for.
LOVE the name... Earl Grey. Brilliant! When u get another, call him Jean-Luc😄😄
Those rabbits are gorgeous 🐇🐰🐇🐇
Eating and going to the bathroom at the same time is multi tasking level 100! Lol!
We had a male rabbit in a puppy pen like that who really liked socializing with our guinea pig and cat. He did try to mount the cat constantly, but NEVER the guinea pig. No matter how much bigger you are, NOBODY is more dominant than a guinea pig.
It would have been very cool if Kemosabe's tail could have been the handle of the mug
Earl grey is so round and fluffy oh my gosh! ♥ blob of love
I love the little noises Kemosabe makes.
Earl Grey is a great name for that adorable bunny 🐇🐰😄
How can you stand the birds chirping all the time? It would drive me crazy! (also you clearly take really good care of your rabbits. Nice job.)
As a bird owner.. we enjoy their songs that is why we adopt them! 🖤 Owning birds DEFINITELY is not for everyone. 🕊️
I remember when that video first came out- so glad they finally met!
I've been a pet sitter for about 4 years now and I've always been experienced with the care of dogs and cats, but I'm still learning about how to care for other animals. So thank you for helping teach me about them!
Hey Jessi,
When you mentioned that you needed to complete the rabbit's morning routine, I realized that you probably have a long task list each day that you can't put off for very long, especially with the large quantity of animals you care for. I know that you have some more help than you've had in the past, but with a job like this where you can't really call in sick, what happens if you or another member of your team are very sick and can't care for the animals for a time? How do you make sure the animals continue to receive the care they need?
+ and also, the video made me wonder how many hours do you personally spend each day taking care of the animals?
Morgan what does + mean ? I keep seeing people write that throughout different videos...
It's a response that the vlogbrothers implemented in their comment section because they realized that the top comments are usually the ones with more discussion, which can be super provocative or incendiary, and not the most upvoted ones. So they asked their viewers to respond with + signs to comments they especially liked to make them more visible. It has drawbacks (like having to go through those responses to follow a conversation) but it spread to other videos and I think at least with vlogbrothers videos it's been very effective.

I have 2 rabbits (back at my parents house, I currently study). First one, a male, lived with me since being a baby and he was neutered about two months before I introduced the other rabbit. The second one, a female comes from a rescue, I don't remember how old she is, but she was rehomed Three times before she came to live with us. The funny thing is, when I introduced them (in their new outside playplace) they fought for about 10 minutes (like, heavy kicking and angry noises involved) and then immediately bonded :) and they been together ever since (3+ years). They have their own big room to run around, the cage is always open and it's only purpose is so we can give them hay (there's 2 litter boxes in the room). Sadly ever since I moved out they became more feral because my parents don't interact with them as much, but they have each other, and big outdoor space in the summer :). But none of them ever liked being picked up and held.
So cute bunny. I LOVE IT.
Adorable rabbits! 🐇 And a surprise visit with Kemosabe! Also, I love your shirt!
Earl grey is such a cuty!
I love you guys Animal Wonders! What you do for these animals is spectacular.
I found your channel through scishow! Super cute and really appreciate what you do for the animals!
multiple bunnies AND Kemo. too many cutes for one video
The football field blanket on the floor was cute!
I just have to say I absolutely love your channel Jessie. Your hard work and dedication to all of these gorgeous and unique animals is inspiring. Always puts a smile my face watching your channel 😊❤️ keep up the amazing work!
You should do a Kemosabe shirt with the same image, I would 100% buy that
Kemosabe is like, "'Tis not food! Away with it!"
Earl looks like a little dork~♡
Thats a great cage for them too!..Great Job! Thanks for the video Jessi!
Aaahh I miss my bunnies. Bunnies are tough pets to keep but theyre sweet animals 😭
they are so amazing!!! look like toys!! only noses move!! so so so cute!!! thank you so much for sharing!! you are the best
I love animals, the bunnies are not mentioned but chubby and cute.
I love every single bunny video. I still miss my little fluffy bondmate, who passed a couple of years ago at a ripe old age. Seeing happy, healthy rabbits sitting and hopping and doing their thing really warms the cracks in my heart. Thank you so much for sharing this with us Jessi! I'm glad the fellas did end up getting along. I do wonder, how long should one keep trying to get buns to socialize well and bond before giving up? How can you tell when it just won't happen? Two weeks is great.
Earl Grey looks much healthier than when you first got him
Ouch.. As a fellow ginger I feel your pain on the partial sunburn. Neutrogena's SPF 100 spray works wonders.
"Get out of their... 'Hare'?" lol
How is Cheeks doing? 🐰
try a litter pan with a few inches of pea-sized smooth rocks, my rabbits love laying on them for some reason, I think it's because the rocks stay cool and it feels good to walk in and lay on
You're such an amazing person and take great care of your animals! I love what you're doing and that inspires my dream to do this when i'm older!
Nonprofit work is hard! Make sure you're prepared and know what you're getting into. It's mostly fundraising and grantwriting, not as much doing the work as you want.
My little sister has been working with nonprofits since college. That's how I know.
Zoo school can set you up with some great contacts in animal rescue community, though!
Seriously? Its 2236 where I'm from, it says this video was posted 5-6mins ago and yet it already has nearly 450 likes, wow!
Love this channel! Thanks for sharing!
Good advises :) I just want to add some things I learned over the years of keeping rabbits. It is normal for rabbits to fight when they don't know each other. They need to establish their hierarchy first. Humping is also a normal behavior and not just for reproducing, (females do that too) it is also for dominating or annoying the other one. So it is not necessary to separate them unless it is getting bloody. Otherwise, they would just start over again later and could get even more aggressive due to boiled up tension from not reaching the other one. Putting two males together is more difficult than putting a male and a female together. Good you made sure both were neutered. Not neutered males can really injure or even kill each other.
But in the end it mostly depends on their characters on how dominant or submissive they are. A few months ago I introduced a new female to my male rabbit (sadly his other girl died of cancer :( ), they took 24h fighting and chasing, the next morning they started cuddling and sharing food.
Another tip, drinking bottles are not that good for rabbit necks and those bottles only give tiny drops. Solid (and heavy) water bowls are better and more natural to drink from.
I feel a bit sorry about the orange rabbit in the tiny cage. I remember you said it can't live with other rabbits? But can it have an enclosure too, so it can run around and play? Or is it sick?
Anyways, keep on doing your good work!
Cheeks (the rabbit in the small cage) prefers the small cage, according to Jessi.
If so, then he might be sick, since rabbits are very active (especially at dawn times) and therefor need a lot of space to run around 24/7. Not moving much can cause problems with the digestive system.
He's a senior, so I would think he already has some health problems that just come from old age, and he knows what he wants and what works best for him. Elders of any species are much the same- grumpy, resistant to change, lethargic and nap a lot.
Since he's preferred living there for some years, whatever sickness you think he has must not be that bad!
Super cute little fluffy rabbits and surprise Kemosabe, I love this video!
What an adorable new bun! Teeny tiny ears, aww!
It's awesome that they're getting along. :)
I don't know if you have crested geckos, but if you do will you do a video about them?
Oh my gosh yes I do remember lol. Hope it goes well and can’t wait to finish the video!!
Aww that's so cute to watch
I like the rabbits! They are so cute!
Make more videos
I also have a bunny named Earl Grey (Earl for short) he is a Chocolate Chinchilla Rex and such an attention hog!
Two weeks?!?! That's so good! My not and girl took a month to be left unsupervised!
Aww I hope Kemosabe is doing better!
Yay Jessi! Adorable friendly bunnies! ... but... can we see more parrots? as much as i love all the videos, the parrots are definitely my favorites
Earl Gray...lol..that is awesome...
Adorable video! Also I can see Cheerio on the background at 2:11
Why is the bun on top of the chin cage in such a small cage? I've watched some of your previous videos and it was in the same small cage then, how come your other bunnies get a large cage but that one doesn't?
Cheeks doesn't like big spaces, and would rather be solitary in his old age. Jessi has talked about this before! :)
I kinda feel like that's an excuse to keep him in a small space, the cage he's in right now looks like the size a hamster would be in. I can see him hopping around quite happily, it's not like he can barely move. They don't have to make his cage massive, Just big enough so he can do more than hop around in circles. I like what Jessie is doing, it's great she's educating people about animals and their needs however I don't know if I can look at her as a transparent individual if she keeps an animal in a cage that small.
I'm not much for merch, but I think I need a Kemosabe mug!
OMG I love them both I just want to cuddle them foreverrrrrr 😍
Sweeties great vid
-love it
Is that a rabbit in the tiny cage near the ceiling? That cage is far too small for rabbits, so i hope this was just temporary.
Love your channel ❤
They're so cute.
Earl Grey reminds me of my first rabbit named Joseph! He was a dwark rabbit with blonde paws, gray fur. And he had 2, or 3 litters with my sisters Mini Rex Buttercup! But buttercup lived for a good.. 4 years? And Joseph died of heat.. I was devistated but luckily we got to keep some of the babies. But that all happend in the past and now we have zero bun buns. So.. yeh
I need a link for the mug too!
mrsbirdies store.dftba.com/products/kemosabe-mug Added to the description too. Thank you!
I have learned it is always best to keep rabbit pellets away from light and air as much as possible since (just like vitamins for humans) they have essential nutrients and minerals that will degrade immensely by being exposed to sunlight ??? Just something I noticed with the big see-through container
Jessica M
It’s possible that they go through the food so quickly that degradation isn’t really a concern.
Buy equine bedding pellets for the litter boxes...its a lot cheaper then the bedding you used....its like 5$ for a 40lb bag....and smells better and absorbs better too
You and me baby we are nothin but mammals. So let's do it how they do on the Discovery channel... 🐰 Cute rabbits ♥️♥️♥️♥️
I love rabbits and my rabbit just died last summer but I like the larger rabbits better because I find them to be smart and chill but I find every dwarf rabbit I have met to be twitchy and aggressive which I assume has to do with inbreeding.
I'm sorry you lost your bunny.
Not exactly. It was because they were breed with wild rabbits to get in smallness, to create a dwarf breed. But that was about 20 years back, dwarf rabbits are now breed with other domestic rabbits, so most if well handled are fine these days.
Napoleon complexes :P
I've always had large rabbits, but it kind of just worked out that way. My second was from a couple that I'm pretty sure bred for meat, so that was a very big buns. She was awesome, but not so chill. I was in high school at the time and she would eat my homework to get attention and hump my leg. I definitely lived in her room, not the other way around.
Can you make a video about your blue fronted amazon parrot?
Little cuties!
Omgshhhh so fluffy!! 😭😍❤️
"Get out of their... hare".
I see what you did thare
First like heck yes!!!!! Love ur videos Jess :)))
damn wth the rabbits are so good looking
Didn't see the link in the description so thought I'd post the link here.
Kemosabe mug:

Matthew Schell Thanks! 🐇
mimi the marmoset is looking so curious lol I
I have a rabbit too. It's name is cookie. It is white in colour. And cute 🙂
Would that trick work for litter training guinea pigs?
I would have been nervous about the rabbits pulling on the newspaper and getting litter everywhere. Have they ever done that?
I have a question about handling kemosabe, since you said you can't hold him - what do you do when you have to pick him up (for example when he has to get checked out or treated for illnesses/injuries and such?) :)
#TEAMOSABE
Is this the Animal Wonders fandom name? Because I am down for that.
Can we get a greet and meet with sprinkles the parrolet? :O
