Question for the Bunny Blogger

Here's a question from Beth B:

Hello Bunny Blogger! I have a question for you. How do you groom a rabbit?
-Beth


Great question, Beth!  Every day, our human brushes us.  I'm a shorthair bunny, so she often brushes me with a bristle brush.  Logan's long hair is better suited to a slicker brush or a comb.  


We like the HairBuster from BinkyBunny.  
When we're shedding, she's extra careful to brush all of our loose fur away so we don't ingest it.  Brushing can be a wonderful bonding opportunity. We like being brushed because we get extra treats :)  Our human says grooming is also a good opportunity to check us over for lumps and bumps and ouchies.  We also need our nails trimmed, but only once per month.  Our human recommends taking your bunnies to the vet for a nail trim if you're unsure of how to do it yourself.


For more information on grooming, our human likes to consult the House Rabbit Society.
