james24 Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 I've seen loads of normal rabbits for sale but considering our place isn't that big a dwarf rabbit would be great. Any ideas where I may be able to get one and perhaps some advice abouth them if anyone has had experience ...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daoyai Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I have seen dwarf bunnies for sale in the big pet shop on Arak road, I once rescued one that had lived its whole life in a tiny cage, I released it into the courtyard of my house and it ran laps for about 20 minutes.... the are made to run so my advice is to give as much room as possible, out of the cage time. They are cleaner and smarter than we might realize. It made friends with our cat that was twice its size and they would slleep together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainman34014 Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Often fancied getting a couple of Rabbits but worry about the Snake effect? Don't they come in your garden after them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sawasdee Khrup, Khun Daoyai, Fascinating, and so kind of you to liberate that dwarf bunny ! Curious: do the dwarf bunnies like to hang out in a cage when they are not running laps, and do they poop, and pee, everywhere, or just in certain places. thanks, ~o:37; Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james24 Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 Thanks guys Following up orang's point, just wondering about their overall health.. Are they quite stable or are they prone to catching things from mosquitos etc..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trainman34014 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 get yourself a sugar glider the cutest thing you have ever seen and much more fun that a rabbit Because it needs to glide I presume you have to build a fairly large cage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james24 Posted April 22, 2011 Author Share Posted April 22, 2011 A sugar glider... wow what is that....?? I went to arak today and another place near robinson. The one near Robinson was down a soi behind a load of fish. They seem to have loads of dogs there and a few rabbits and my god did that look inhumane. Arak wasnt much better and 2000 baht for a rabbit seemed pretty steep. Would be nice to find a breeder who was a bit more animal loving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

james24 Posted May 21, 2011 Author Share Posted May 21, 2011 Is there actaully a decent pet shop in Chiang Mai We noe have two small rabbits from a breeder and have bought their hay recently. Upon inspecting it it is full of crawly things aswell as some dead fyling ants. Is there knowhere that actually gives a hoot about animals... they really need some decent hay.
