hello, i'm deciding to get another rabbit. But i was wondering how i would feed them, My rabbit at the moment has pellets but picks at it throughout the day. I'm just worried that when i do get another rabbit what happens if the new one is greedy and eats all the food in the bowl and leaves non for my original rabbit. please help (:

@O1O792 It is important to feed the correct amount, and for an average rabbit that means two flat eggcups per rabbit once a day. They usually finish it quickly and then eat veg and hay for the rest of the day. Rabbits learn quickly that if they don't eat their fill when the food appears, they will miss out, so therefore will within a couple of days start eating the pellets straight away! COntact me directly by email or phone for more info.

@milly4066 Hello Milly, yes your dad has been in touch and I think a visit is to be arranged so you can come for a chat about the accommodation you will need for rabbits. Peter and Parsley are still available at the moment - Parsley in particular is very gentle and friendly, and they will make absolutely delightful pets. I shall look forward to meeting you! Mairwen

OK Thanks for replying. Is it ok if me and my dad come over on thursday evening at about 5:30? If we can then that would be great. (The reason i sent loads of messages is because I thought youtube did not acept it) I know i am a bit youg to be on hotmail and youtube, but i do it anyway.

Is peter as nice as parsley? If you would make a video on them i would be real happy!

A lot has changed since 1993!

Hi, a few days ago, (4th april 2011) my dad (Ben Combe) phoned you up to ask you about me getting a pair of rabbits. I am his daughter, a 8 year old girl. I have seen quite a few rabbits in your rescue center lately, and I really liked the look of Peter and Pansy. My dad is gonna phone you up some time this week. MY BIRTHDAY IS ON THE 8TH OF APRIL!

this video really amazed me. I've never seen a rabbit eat all there food in one sitting. I feed my rabbit just like you. I give her pellets and fresh greens everyday, yet she will eat all the greens + hardly touch the pellets. Although at night, she will eat all her pellets.

I've never given my rabbit celery as online everything contradict's each other. I may now try her on some. Thank you for posing this, its been a big help (:
