As I've mentioned, I'm fostering 2 baby bunnies for a local charity. One of them, Cookie, is the fluffiest thing I've ever seen
With my other bunnies, they simply get a cage full of hay and a litter tray of wood based cat litter, and that's fine, but with Cookie the hay gets caught in her fur, so do any poos she hasn't done in her litter tray, and she's been struggling to clean herself properly.
This meant I had to spend a long time the other day cleaning her bum, cutting away dirty fur, getting rid of rogue caecals :? which wasn't nice for either of us. This is despite me checking her every day.
Anyway, can anyone think of good bedding for her? I don't want to use newspaper as it will make her beautiful white fur dirty. I'd rather not have her just on the bare cage floor, it would seem so mean. I'm lifting her hay up into the hay rack (I've never known an animal like using the hay rack, which is why it's not currently in use).
Thanks!
