Senior Care
Adapting home environments for aging rabbits
Recognizing early signs of stiffness allows timely adjustments to litter trays, flooring, and daily routines, ensuring older rabbits move through living spaces with comfort and confidence.
Room Adjustments
Step-by-step home modifications
01
Low-lip litter trays
Replace standard high-sided boxes with shallow, accessible trays to prevent strain on aging hind legs.
02
Padded fleece pathways
Lay down soft non-slip rug runners and fleece mats over slippery hardwood or tile surfaces to prevent slips.
03
Ramp accessibility
Add gentle, textured ramps to favorite resting spots and enclosures to remove the need for jumping.
Daily Care
Grooming and environmental setups
Hygiene
Gentle daily spot-checks
Senior bunnies with reduced flexibility benefit from daily gentle checks around rear quarters and soft brushing sessions.
Hydration
Elevated water bowl placement
Position heavy ceramic bowls at comfortable head height to reduce neck strain while drinking.
