View Full Version : Rabbit
I am getting an apartment with 3 friends of mine next August and really want to get a pet rabbit. I want to teach him some cool tricks like Oolong the Rabbit ( Oolong (rabbit) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oolong_%28rabbit%29) ).
The problem is I know nothing about rabbits. If anyone here has any experience with rabbits can they help me out? I want to smoke him out of course and need a good relatively cheap breed. I'm doing other research online but I would like some personal experience also.
Any help is appreciated.

I know they like to shit and make a big mess. Keep the area clean every day or it's gonna smell pretty assy. We had a couple dwarf rabbits when I was younger and those things were a pain in the ass.

Rabbits are awesome :)
For starters, just do a couple of searches
"domesticated rabbits"
"house rabbits"
"how to train rabbit"
Also, look up Rabbit Language
It's neat, just like you can learn how dogs communicate, rabbits have their own special form of communication. For instance, running around you in circles means they like you and are happy to see you. Flipping in midair and sprinting here and there in short gaps usually means they're joyful
I can't wait to get another rabbit
We had one outside that got out and eventually we just let it stay out.
It survived easily for 4 or 5 years nibbling on things here or there, in the garden, it slept with the dog occasionally... One day a neighbors asshole dog jumped our fence and chased it under the house. Never saw it again.
They're pretty chill, a lot of them like tv and cuddling, they make little chitter noises with they're mouths when they're content, and if you pet them for a few minutes straight they'll return the favor with their tongues.
I'm not sure how well they'd react to pot...
might wanna look that up

Bunnies are good to have in your growroom as long as they don't get out and eat your plants. Their poop gives off CO2.

also, make sure you do extra research on their food
There is a lot of conflicting information about what they can and shouldn't eat,
and there is only one right answer.
And you're going to have to fix them.

I had a bunny when I was growing up and it was stinky. My mom was tired of cleaning out the cage so one day my dad got a pet carrier and they said they took it to a bunny farm. He was kind of mean too.

Hey now I was looking for personal experiences. Believe me I live by wikipedia. Not very much information is posted on how bunnies react to THC. :rastasmoke:

There's no proof as to if it's bad for animals or not, THAT I KNOW OF. It's really up to you, but you'd think that they really can't get high as they're only inhaling second hand smoke, unless you do a shotty.

I've had a few dwarf rabbits in my time and I loved them to death. Except they can be bastards and don't listen. You have to keep a very close eye on the, when they are out loose in the house. Mainly electrical/computer wires.
They are very entertaining and playful though. I had loads of fun with mine, but I would avoid dwarf rabbits. They are very high prone to getting cancer and dying very young. The longest one for me lived not even 2 years, so that's why I haven't bothered getting another one.
But normal rabbits, they can live a much longer life. My cousin has one that's about 5 years old now. Keep in mind they are a little bigger, and get about the same size as a cat.
The nice thing about them though is they don't make any noise at all. They don't cry, whimper, beg and whine, nothing!
Big ones can be kept outside in a large pen when it's nice during the summer.
Just make sure you keep their pen/cage clean. You wouldn't want to be sitting in your urine and feces for weeks, so don't do the same to them. When it's dirty, clean it. For food, just go to any retail outlet or pet store and buy the right kind of food. Pellets are good for them, but avoid the mixed food with corn and such added, as that is very high in calories and they'll get fat. Instead, give them a daily does of lettuce, or parsley, even the tops leaves of carrots that most of us throw away.
For drinking, the best would be a drinking bottle that straps to the side of the cage.
And that's about all. To keep the bugger from getting loose when they are out in your yard, simply buy a cat harness for them, and tie them up somewhere so they can't leave the yard. They are fast fuckers and can move man.
Rabbits are cool though. The big ones seem to more laid back that the dwarf ones.

Thanks man. That's what I was looking for. I'm really thinking about getting a big one. They seem so cool. Now, only if I can convince my roommates they are so much cooler than cats.

My ex gal is in vet school. We would get my cat and her cat totally bombed.
Really don't think so. But then again I catch my cat licking the fertilizer lid every now and then.
