Did you know that rabbits shed fur too? Rabbits are just like cats. They love to be clean and tidy, so they are constantly grooming themselves. However, they do not vomit out hairball, so these hairballs might stay in the stomach, which might be dangerous for your rabbit.

What you can do to help your rabbit is to brush them at least once a week. Every three months, rabbit undergo heavy shedding to lose their old coat of fur, so they require to be brushed everyday during this time so that they do not ingest the hairballs.

However, if you notice that your rabbit is shedding excessively for no reason, do consult your vet immediately.
