Instructions

    • 1

      Cut rabbit's nails every three or four months. Use pet nail clippers.

    • 2

      Clip only tip of nail, being careful not to cut into the quick.

    • 3

      Have a bottle of "stop bleed" on hand in case you cause the nail to bleed. This will help clot the cut.

    • 4

      Brush rabbit twice a week to remove dead hair. Use a small cat brush.

    • 5

      Wash rabbit only if you have to. Then wash only soiled area - not the whole rabbit. Don't get water in ears or up nose.

    • 6

      Keep the cage clean to eliminate having to wash your rabbit.
