ssMy new rabbit doesn't sound good! I think she might be sick or something!?

All rabbits are different. How long have you had her? Has she always made this noise when you pick her up? Have you see any other signs of possible illness, missing fur, cuts, lumps, discharge from the eyes/nose, lethargic behaviour, not eating/drinking, not pooing/peeing?

Keep an eye on her, remember that rabbits do not show their illness and while she may be 'acting' fine she could in fact be sick. If the noise becomes a more regular thing, or you see her sitting in the corner of her cage loudly grinding her teeth, you may want to see a vet. Some rabbits will just make more noise than others. That noise could be her way of protesting being picked up, as most rabbits do not like being handled.

in keeping with threat you're no longer getting adequate fiber on your weight-alleviation plan. attempt for roughly 30 grams in keeping with day - even a million/2 of which will save your insides moving precise and your stools much less uh liquidy.

shes probably scared/ these are tips on rabbits.

make sure you have space for your rabbit ot run around for an hr everyday.

make sure you have a wire cage (not on the bottom though)

make sure it is not glass and has pleny of ventilation. do not use cedar or pine bedding as this is harmful to their respiratory system, use carefresh. i lay newspaper everywhere and just pput the bedding in the litter pan, it will save you money. when triaing the bunyy to use the litter pan just put a container in the corner with the bedding put some of his/her poo pellets in it and they will catch on fast, we accually trained our rabbit to get in his cage at night(because he plays on our porch all day). we say mosbey (thats his name) get in your cage and we always have a treat waiting for him and he hops right in. it took a good bit to get hm to do this we had to run everywhere trying to catch him at first. haha. :)

!Health:!

if you knowtice cloudy eyes, sleepy rabbit, your rabbit not eating or drinking, diarrhea, your rabbit not playing with his favorite toys or acting abnormal then its time to go to the vet.

!Food:!

really any diet containing pellets, fresh foods and hay is good. (never give a rabbit under 6 months old greens or carrots or ANY fresh foods, it will upset their stomachs)you can buy the food with just pellets or you can buy a brand with a variety of seeds, pellets, timothy hay seeds etc. make sure that your rabbits have hay all the time. since they cant cough up hair balls like cats they get stuck in their system, and the hay makes it easier for it to pass through.

!Grooming:!

with a short haired you will have to brush it at least twice a week, get a soft bristle brush as their skin is very sensitive, even thouogh they are short haired they still groom themselves and digest hair which can cause hair balls and grooming can help prevent them. long haired need to be groomed everyday.

never cut a rabbits fur or give them a bath. a bath is extremely stressful for them. if him/her get into something stcky spot clean them.

•nails: when you start to knowtice your rabbits nails getting long and sharp that means its time for a trim. go to petsmart or petco and buy small nail clippers or even dog clippers if your comfortable using the bigger ones. be carful not to cut to short because you will reach the quik (where the blood is) and it can bled. just cut off the tips of the nail. if it starts to bleed get a styptic pencil (you can also get this from the pet store) and set it against the nail to stop the bleeding.

!Gender:!

i really dont knowtice a difference. i have a male and he is very sweet and will play games and everything. the females are better with other females while males are sometimes aggresive when they meet a new bunny buddy. although when i introduced my grandpas rabbit and mine, they were like best friends.

games:

most rabbits like hide n seek. mine doesnt but we got him these little cat balls, the ones that have like bars on them so he can bite it and he throws the ball!!!!! :) i just sit it right in front of him and he throws it! :)

i think thats about it. :)

I think she is probably fine. When rabbits are frightened or hurt they will let out a high pitched scream. If she is eating and drinking and has normal poops and she seems alert I wouldn't be overly concerned
