He's adorable but what set up have you got the buns in? As pet shops and breeders don't recommend the right size set up/ hutch/ cage or right diet.... I learnt this the hard way and my bun suffered for it until I got help from ru

You can be an owner for years and not know these things it's not your fault it's that shops and breeders are misinformed and give you wrong info or sometimes they know and give you wrong info to get the sale so you don't realise how hard it can be

Heyy, thanks for the advice, atm hes just in a small section of my room sectioned off, with a litter tray, food area, bedding area..

She is supporting hips and shoulders so pretty good! Though I would imagine bun was held like this for the time it took to take the photo, rather than this being how bun is normally held! (I hope!)
He is a little cutie, I have a Thor too!
Just checking you know the basics here, buns should have about 80% of their diet hay with pellet food rather than muesli and controlled amounts of veg/forage. Any diet changes should be done very very slowly, I hope you and your bunny have a lot of fun getting to know each other!

no, i dont hold him like that only for that pic, i let him jump on my lap when he wants to be held, if i do pick him up i use a blacket to get him out of his cage, so he doesnt kick and hurt himself on the doors, and when hes out i sit down and lift him on my lap, he sometimes likes to climb me, hurts but cute.
Oh and my bunny diet atm, is LOTS of hay, pellets, lots of fresh water and the occasionally treat, havnt really given him to much veggies atm as he is still young, did enjoy one large leaf of lettuce the other day, he was so happy afterwards thanks for reassuring tho good to know some ppl actually are on here to help and not judge
