Pet Rats

I got my first rat about 3 years ago. I had to put her to sleep because she got breast cancer. My other rat seems very sad and lonely now as she is getting older. Rats make amazing pets and I love mine. They are very smart and very sociable. Mine love to run around with both of my doggies.

Jersey Wooly Rabbit

Thu, 04 Sep 2008 02:53:37 -0700

I'm very sorry but those pictures are NOT Jersey Woolies. They are also not known as Dwarf Angoras. The pictures shown are of Lionheads and mixed heritage rabbits. Please refer to Arba for correct pictures. Editor's note: As all the pictures were submitted separately by the owners of these Jersey Woolies, why don't you submit a picture of your Jersey Woolies for comparison. For a more immediate comparison, check out the Lionhead Rabbit page. The Lionhead has very long fur on its head - resembling a lion's mane. Some think the Jersey Wooly may have been used in its development, though not everyone concurs. The Lionhead is not yet a fully recognized breed by ARBA in the US, though it has been recognized since 2002 by the British Rabbit Council. The Jersey Wooly is known as the Dwarf Angora in Europe. The breed name, Jersey Wooly, is recognized by the ARBA in the US, but not the breed name Dwarf Angora.

Mini Lop Rabbits

Sat, 30 Aug 2008 22:35:29 -0700

Hailey, our female holland lop did the same thing, the vet advised me on having her spayed. So I did that and it calmed her down a lot. She still didn't like being held a lot, but you could at least pet her, and she would come out of the cage and play. Unfortunatly we had just lost her this past monday, and I am hoping to replace her shortly.

Holland Lop Rabbits

Sat, 30 Aug 2008 22:35:29 -0700

Hi, I just recently had a holland lop named cinnamon. She was a 3 yr old female that enjoyed playing and being petted, she constantly ate food and vegetables. Just this past friday I had given her a bowl of food and she began to eat it. Saturday she appeared to be fine and still playing. Sunday she was still playing, but I noticed most of the food still in her food bowl at that time, so on monday I woke up and I noticed at this point not only was her food not gone, but now I seen no droppings in her litter pan. I had called the vet to take her in and as we were getting ready to leave, she got real limp and almost instantly fell over dead. Any ideas of what happened to her, I know my 4 yr old went to the cage constantly to pet her and I am concerned that maybe she dropped something in the cage and the rabbit ate it. Is that a possibility, or could it have been the food I was giving her, or was it something else? I just want to know, because if it was that daughter dropped something in the cage, I know to use extreme caution when letting her near the bunny,w hen I replace the one I had just lost.

o.k. I have had an american fuzzy lop myself. Her name is amy and she is so adorable! Everyday when I come home from school I take her out of her cage and then she either rolls around on her back or she will paw at me and lick me all over my face. It dependes if she is super super happy or if she is just plain happy. alyssa

Mini Lop Rabbits

My girlfriend has a mini lop rabbit and it is 6 months old. Before we went on holidays she was playful and running around everywhere. When we went on holidays we left her at the vets for 2 weeks and while in there the vet gave her a mixamotois shot and now she is a different rabbit altogether; biting everything and everyone and just sitting around grunting at everyone that trys to play with her. Has anyone the same problems or any info to try help get her back the way she was.
