  • @Yifto101 man i have thr same issues with the black slaves i have in my drugoen.

  • I just trimmed all of my rabbits' (3) nails this week- I came out with battle scars. One vet told me to make a "bunny burrito". Basically, if your rabbit won't hold still, or kicks and hates being held, wrap the bunny in a stiff towel or blanket, and do the nails that way. I only suggest doing this if your rabbits are really tough, because they tend to breathe harder and that always scares me. I usually use this tactic ONLY for back nails.

  • I have on bunny that nips, and one who makes nests in your laps when you make her sit on you for long periods. What I do is I put them on their backs. Most rabbits go into an almost trance. It's great for trimming crazy rabbits nails.

  • But that rabbit is nothing like my rabbit. That rabbit is totally calm...

  • wait...how often should you trim them?

  • I don't know if this helps, but sometimes if you can keep your pet's head turned the opposite way, so they don't see what you're doing, it might be a little easier.

  • thankyou this will help me so much with my wriggly rabbits! Xx

  • is that rabbit urs orbelongs to the expert village

  • My rabbit has black nails... A bit harder to clip?

  • @LucariosNumber1Fan you should defently get a rabbit becuase rabbits dont bite they only bite when they try to defend there selfs
