Typically brushing your rabbit on a weekly basis during light shedding seasons and daily during heavy shedding seasons is advised. However, the frequency may vary based on your rabbit's individual shedding patterns, fur length, and the amount of fur present in their feces. There are different factors that contibute to the growth rate of your rabbit's nails. Typically, they should be trimmed every 1 to 2 months. However, rabbits that enjoy digging or have access to rough flooring may naturally wear down their nails to some extent in their daily activities, potentially reducing the frequency of nail trimming. It's reccommended you assess the length of your rabbit's nails once a month to ensure they don't become excessively long.

When rabbits groom themselves, they can ingest their fur. During shedding seasons, this hair can accumulate into bigger hairballs which can create a blockage in the rabbit's gut leading to GI Stasis. Stasis is a serious condition that requires immediate vet intervention and can lead to death if not treated properly. Additionally, rabbits can develop matted fur which can be painful. Wet fur or contact with urine can contribute to matting. Even the simple acts of running around or sleeping can lead to matting in long-haired rabbits.

Each rabbit follows its unique shedding schedule that is more likely to follow the change in temperature than traditional calendar seasons. Typically, rabbits have a significant shedding phase twice a year, in spring and fall, and a minor shedding period in both summer and winter.

In order for me to be able to sustain providing a mobile bunny care service that works for everyone I have to bundle my services.

To ensure the bunny is safe and as low-stress as possible, it takes extra time and a delicate touch to clean dirty fur &/or remove matted fur. I assess the condition of the bunny starting at $50.00 because this can take longer and may require some additional cooperation from the bunny.
