Moulting

Are any of your buns moulting as my two are moulting really badly. They hate being stroked or picked up so it's a challege getting the excess fur of them. They are both in a mood with me now

Yep, Nena looks like a hobo bunny! I've been plucking her fur like mad for weeks and it's still coming!

I find brushing isn't always that effective, have you tried just plucking out the big sticky out-y bits and leaving it at that? It gets the worst out but is nice and quick, so hopefully your bunnies won't hate you for too long :shock:

I have a lot of moulting bunnies and some are moulting heavily. It doesn't seem to bother them though.

My 2 are actually having a full moult for the first time in 3 years. This is Coco:

Actually it's a lot, lot bigger now; spreading all over her shoulders and three quarters down her back. It's fab to pluck but really strange to stroke :lol:

Thumper's not as bad. She rarely moults as much as Coco anyway but actually has a patch about the size of a 50p on her back at the moment.

I really annoy them sometimes as it's like an addiction, plucking all the loose fur, it's fab! Thumper doesn't stand still for long though but if Coco's found a nice patch of grass she'll stand me plucking her for a good few minutes. Her fur comes out in sheets! Could make a new rabbit :lol: You wanna see the garden - there's fur everywhere :lol:; looks like there's been a right scrap between them! :shock::lol:

My two will only let me if hold their front legs up so their Periscoping son they can't move

My Bugsy is moulting around his rear end, but whenever I try to brush him with the slicker brush ( a kitten one that is really good) he gets all frisky and starts humping Bramble :shock: Now I have to distract him with a few ss pellets whils I brush him :lol::lol:

Kizzy seems to moult nice and evenly but poor Bob looked like he had a fur tutu at one point. He hates being groomed (unless it's by Kizzy) but it had to be done because I was worried he might get matted fur or even a mucky bottom. Much as Bob hates it the promise of a fenugreek crunchy means he'll put up with it.


On the plus side my mother-in-law is over the moon as she's using their fur to spin into wool - I'm hoping that my Xmas present this year will be a luxury wool scarf made with 20% Bob and Kizzy

Tessie is an absolute mass of tufts atm. The others are all looking pretty smooth (except for the usual lionhead fluffiness on 4 of them).

They all dislike being touched, except the totally smooth Sunshine, so I will have some major sulking after my next 'catch n pluck' session.

Amy seems to be moulting very slowly- you hold her, you get fur on your clothes, and petting her causes it to fly off and there are loads of sticky outie bits I gently pluck, but it's been this way for months now really.

Rosie is moulting a lot at the mo. It puts her in bad form ... Or maybe it's just me that has her in a mood. Lol! Who knows but I groom and pluck her twice a day so I can understand why I'm not her favourite person !!!

My wee Smudge has a mouldy skirt and looks like a tramp... Poor wee man, he now associates me with a brush and he avoids me like the plague... I can't get near him now...
