We had a dwarf bunny.....they don't stay dwarf if you feed them well!
Also FS is onto something watch out....they bite, hiss, growl, jump and thump and can be evil little things and their bite HURTS.
We used oven mitts, wore long sleeved heavy coats (for sharp nails) and a blanket....and this was for our so called "pet" because once she was out of that cage, she didn't want back in!
RIP Moosom....
(Ill never get another bunny that's for sure!)

It's just not these little guys fault. An irresponsible pet owner decided to abandon them instead of finding them a home. So the adults multiplied. People need to be responsible for their pets and stuff like this wouldn't happen. If they were Jackrabbits, it would be different, but these little guys are domesticated babies with no wild adaptability. They are white. Like little marshmellows waiting to be plucked off, lol.

Yup I agree. I used to be a pet groomer and I had all kinds of evil bunnies in my shop, to demat and do their nails. Our bunnies have always been fun. Bun buns that just died did attack the washer repair guy, and she oinked like a pig when she was mad... but other than that she was sweet.

Moosom was our class pet and was GREAT with kids, just loved them. We used to let her hop around the class all day and she was "potty trained" too....
And the kids walked her to the park outside.
But man, trying to put her back in that cage was a 3 man job and quite the sight to see! All of us in winter jackets with oven mitts and blankets running and dive bombing around the class! As this rabbit is hissing and thumping at us Lol!

Haa haa ha That's awesome!!
ours was the same. She was a Jersey Wooley. She would put the run on the dogs. I'd let her out while I was gardening but she loved the doves. When she wanted to go back into her pen with the doves she'd bang on the door. In the winter she'd run around the house and freak people out. She was litter trained.

haa haaa Ok!! The good part about this adventure is that the kids are taming these bunnies. Their feet hardly touch the floor, so whoever adopts these bunnies will have little love buns.

Awe, just leave the bunnies alone, they are smarter than you anyways.

We used snare's when we were kids, not much fun to pet them when you took them out of the snare, there kind of stiff.
Also had a great German short hair pointer (dog) we'd turn him loose at the farm and he'd fetch the bunnies for you, always brought them back.
Just a couple ideas for you Momma :d

Ya, when we lived in the north and the kids were young we had "snare lines" for rabbits and the homemade soup was awesome.
Sure don't see that aspect of growing up enymore.....

When I was younger living on the farm, my parents decided it would be a great idea to get some auction mart rabbits for us kids. We would raise them for meat and sell them. Sometimes we would have close to 100 of the critters. When they escaped we used a piece of stucco wire about 20 ft long to corral them. One person on each end and someone to chase them out towards the wire. When they hit the wire just circle them. Simple and works. Caught some wild ones that way as well.
