The best bun vet that I know is not too far from you! His name is Dr. Beldon, and he’s on Sega Dr. in New Milford. Here is the website http://www.newmilfordanimalhospital.com/
Thank you for saving that poor bunny! I shudder to think what may have happened to the poor little guy if not for you!

Hi! I found your site thru Bunspace.com. I live in CT and have a young bun who needs to be neutered and would like to know if there is a bunny vet somewhere in Litchfield county or NW Ct. I hope to get Benjamin a companion when I get more room. He has his own space right now but I don’t think enough for 2. I’m new to bunnys though. I rescued him from a coworker who didn’t want her son to have him and was going to turn him loose in the backyard on a 15 degree night. He is very well adjusted and potty trained himself.
Thanks for any help! Jo Ann

well….first of all I only have TWO so studying their pattern was certainly easier. Consistency is the key. I use this method for my dog and he also has a “corner” of my property. I just modify it for small pets. I bought a set of towels specifically for their cage and I use that to line it. I use smaller tea towels as runners and change it each day or every other day as needed. I just find towels to be cheaper and easier to wash. White works because I can see where they pee more consistently…..then I only used the eco bedding in the bottom of that transport cage tray I brought. They seemed to go more in the back area of the larger cage so that is where I put the potty tray a strip of the towel they went on under the eco bedding. After a day or so I omitted the tea towel and stayed with just the eco bedding strips. I always keep one or two “raisins” in there and a few stips of the old eco bedding each time I change it.When I take them out for any reason the first place I set them upon returning them is to that tray. I noticed after about two days they only went in the tray, I then brought it into the free range area and same thing placed it in their “spot” putting them in it before and after play. They now go to it. I find a good size tray or large rubbermaid works….they seem to still like to sit on one end so it needs to be big enough for this or at least two rat size. Having them go in one place makes it easier to clean daily. They seem to still sleep in the hammock or fleece tube and those I hang off their floor as well. Realistically with any pet, I take one to two days when they have adjusted and trust me to work with them on an hourly to couple hours basis, tapering off a bit as they get the idea. It is a bit time consuming at first but gets less so as they figure it out. Honestly, I have no idea how or why it works, but I figured if I trained 6 kids, 2 dogs, 3 cats, and a pair of mice to “go” in one spot in my lifetime…..how hard could the Ratties be?

Yay!!! I’m so happy to hear that all is well and that they’ve adjusted so fast! I can’t believe you got them potty trained already! What’s your secret?
