:love::love::love: They are gorgeous, mine had his clipped yesterday, he was not a happy bunny :lol: he turned his back to me in a mood:D
 
Now he is cute... :love:

I remember our bunny clipping used to take 2 people, careful cutting, and the ability to catch him in the first place...:roll:

He's a speedy one and quite slippery to catch so I plonked them both on the table so they couldn't get very far :lol:

Missys had to be done today, I could hear her little feet tapping as she ran, my arms now bear the scars:rolleyes:
 
yep the nails are the fiddly part! I have never had to clip my current two because they are on concrete but my other ones were on grass so nail clipping was always the order of the day...
I wouldnt dare clip my two as i wouldnt get out alive :lol: (they are actually quite good after a battle of wills :roll:)

I do think he is very cute and after having an angora i can symapthise how difficult it is to clip long haired rabbits who don't like it... :roll:
 
Do u trim his fur with sissors or clippers as i have an angora and she is very good would let me clip i think but i use sissors and always looks uneven??

I attempt to trim with scissors but as you can see it doesn't look that good :lol:
 
Wouldn't attempt nails - take them to the vets:oops: but I have given Flopsy a haircut.

He did look like your lionhead - very long top mane. I found a knot in it and as he is not a lover of being groomed decided to bribe him with a tiny piece of rich tea biccy (don't shout at me) and once has his sights on that I just took the scissors out and trimmed away.

He looks rather strange now but I am sure it will be a bit cooler for him in the hot weather.

he's not so bad when its time to cut his nails its the fur cutting, he fidgets a lot so I get scared with the scissors. He definately needs a good hair cut but I'm just haven't got a clue what to do with him.....I dont want him looking like I've attacked him with hedge clippers:rolleyes:
 
Flopsy was actually quite still and I just lifted up his long bits and trimmed them off bit by bit. He doesn't look that bad.

Will try to get some before and after piccies to show you. I think he looks more masculine with shorter hair:lol::lol:

Ohh before and after pics would be great, I've never cut his hair short before. I quite like his wispy bits.
