Pet Care Tip:
Being intelligent animals, rabbits can be litter-trained! By nature, rabbits choose one or a few places (usually corners) to deposit their urine and most of their pills (poop). Urine-training involves little more than putting a litter-box and litter ( Breeder Celect’s cat litter is a great option) with one side filled with lots of yummy hay to attract them over.

Dealing With Animal Abuse Online
8th Jul 2011, by SPCA Singapore

Often these are promoted by the perpetrators themselves or are created simply for shock value. Such footage is often meant to incite and u...

Over time, the uneven flooring could cut into their feet and leave them with nasty and painful sores and abscesses. Besides the pain your beloved rabbit has to go through, you would also incur unnecessary medical costs. Please remove that wired flooring toda...
