Molting(shedding) season is upon us. Even Mini- Rexs like Lady Arabella VonFluffin molt as the season changes and the weather gets warmer. Here are somethings you can do to help your bunny get rid of the excess fur and prevent a fur blockage from setting in.
1. Give your bunny a good grooming session. Brush bunny every other day to prevent him from ingesting the fur. This is a perfect time to wear a mask so that the fur doesn’t get all over your face.
2. Bunnies tend to slow down water consumption during weather changes. Decreased water consumption along with molting can lead to a fur blockage. Offer bunny a bowl of water in addition to a water bottle. Get veggies wet and feed veggies with a high water content like romaine and chopped celery.
3. Offer herbs that support molting. @thewellkeptrabbit sells a great Natural Support Molting Kit. Check it out here https://www.etsy.com/…/molting-season-support-kit-2… and Organic Molt Support Poppers which bunnies love https://www.etsy.com/…/skin-coat-molt-support-poppers…
