Accurate Rabbit to Human Ages

Most people are surprised to learn how quickly a rabbit moves through the stages of life compared to our own timeline. Seeing them grow from a fragile three-month-old into a mature adult happens in the blink of an eve, and understanding these shifts helps in providing better care.
1. During the first six months, a rabbit is essentially moving through childhood and their teenage years, meaning they need extra space to burn off that high-octane energy.
2. By the time they hit the one-year mark, they are hitting young adulthood-think of this as their early twenties where they are fully developed and very active.
3. Between two and five years, a rabbit settles into their prime, similar to a person in their thirties and forties, where they appreciate a consistent routine and a steady environment
4. Once they pass five years, entering their senior years, it becomes helpful to adjust their living area to make hopping and moving around easier on their joints.
Watching a bunny transition through these phases really puts their rapid development into perspective. Being aware of these milestones makes it much easier to spot when they might need a little more help as they gracefully get older. Lifestyle Tips

Years To Human (https://yearstohuman.com/charts/rabbit?utm) website states that their data is in line with veterinarians. Their information is interesting and they have a calculator where you enter your rabbit’s age... It then tells you your rabbit’s age in human years!

There are soooooooooooooo many rabbits in rescues, shelters and on the streets. PLEASE, help to prevent this. It's really not to difficult, call a rabbit savvy veterinarian and schedule their spay or neuter.

Make sure that your vet has recent experience spaying and/or neutering rabbits. This is especially important for females because their surgery is somewhat different than other animals and they do need CURRENT experience. Make sure that your vet gives you pain meds, 5 to 7 days for females and 3 to 4 days for males.

🔆 Good News, if you adopt from a rabbit rescue, 99.5% will already be altered!

🐇🐕 What you’re looking at is Rabbitwoman and Dogman on a Scooter (title can vary by installation)

The sculpture is a bronze work by the Australian artist duo Gillie and Marc, known worldwide for their anthropomorphic characters Rabbitwoman and Dogman. The sculpture matches their signature style and one of their recurring public‑art pieces featuring the pair riding a scooter.
🔹 Artists: Gillie and Marc Schattner
🔹 Medium: Bronze
🔹 Typical size: Life‑size
🔹 Locations: Installed in multiple cities globally, including Sydney, Melbourne, London, New York, and others. Gillie and Marc frequently place these sculptures in urban business districts, exactly like the setting in the photo. The “NSW Sports Club” signage in the background confirms this one is in Sydney, Australia.
?? Who are Rabbitwoman and Dogman? They are the artists’ long‑running symbolic characters:
Rabbitwoman🐇 represents curiosity, vulnerability, and openness.
Dogman🐕 represents loyalty, groundedness, and steadfast love.
🐇🐕 Together, they symbolize the idea that two very different beings can form a perfect partnership.
These characters appear in dozens of sculptures, paintings, and public installations.
🛵 Why the scooter? Gillie and Marc often depict the pair riding a Vespariding a tandem bike sitting, on a bench sharing coffee, or embracing. The scooter versions are meant to evoke freedom, joy, and the thrill of exploring the world together.🌏

WARNING SIGNS OF GI STASIS TO WATCH FOR DURING DIET CHANGES

Watch for any drop in appetite, fewer or no p**p pellets, smaller or drier droppings, lethargy, hiding, hunched posture, tooth grinding, and a bloated or tense belly. Those are the biggest early warning signs that a rabbit may be sliding into GI stasis, especially during a hay or diet change.

WHAT MATTERS MOST
-Eating less hay or refusing food.
-Producing fewer droppings, or droppings that are tiny, dark, dry, or misshapen.
-Acting quiet, withdrawn, or less active than usual.
-Sitting hunched, stretching oddly, or seeming uncomfortable.
-Grinding teeth, which can signal pain.
-A swollen, firm, or distended abdomen.

DURING DIET CHANGES
A brief slowdown in interest in a new hay can happen, but reduced p**ping or reduced eating is not something to ignore. Any change in f***s, appetite, or energy can be an early sign that the gut is slowing down, and rabbits can worsen quickly.

WHEN TO ACT
If your rabbit stops eating, has very little or no p**p, looks painful, or seems bloated, treat it as urgent and get veterinary help right away. The earlier you act, the better the chance of reversing the slowdown before it becomes a more serious emergency.

🪄 YESTERDAY WE LEARNED ABOUT DIFFERENT TYPES OF HAY
🪄 YOU’VE DECIDED TO ADD A NEW TASTE OR TWO
🪄 HOW TO TRANSITION A RABBIT TO A NEW TYPE OF GRASS HAY SAFELY
Like with any new food, you must transition from the old food slowly. The safest way is to change the hay gradually over 1–3 weeks so your rabbit’s appetite stays steady and their gut keeps moving normally. Start by mixing a small amount of the new hay into the old hay, then slowly increase the new hay while decreasing the old hay.

TRANSITION PLAN
Days 1–3: about 75% old hay, 25% new hay.
Days 4–7: about 50% old hay, 50% new hay.
Days 8–10: about 25% old hay, 75% new hay.
By around 2–3 weeks: full switch if your rabbit is eating well.
A slide for pellet transition is attached. Double check with your rabbit savvy vet to ensure that they agree with this for your particular rabbit.

MAKE IT EASIER
Offer the hay in a litter box or feeding spot your rabbit already uses, since many rabbits like to eat while they p**p.
Try blending textures, such as timothy with orchard grass, if your rabbit is picky.
Keep the hay fresh, fragrant, and free of moisture or mold.

WATCH CLOSELY
If your rabbit eats much less hay, stops p**ping normally, or seems sluggish during the change, slow the transition and consider a vet call promptly. Rabbits should always have unlimited grass hay available, and a sudden refusal to eat is a red flag.

HAY – WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF FEEDING DIFFERENT TYPES OF HAY

Different grass hays give our rabbits a bit of variety in taste, texture, & nutrient profile while keeping their diet high in fiber, which supports digestion & helps wear down teeth. Timothy is most common, orchard grass is often softer & more aromatic, meadow hay can be more mixed, palatable, ryegrass or oat hay can add novelty & encourage eating in picky rabbits.
WHY VARIETY HELPS
-Can improve appetite, especially in rabbits easily bored
-Different textures & stem thicknesses can encourage more chewing
-Mixed hay routine can make it easier to find a hay your rabbit consistently eats well
-Rotating grass hays can help you notice preferences, which is useful if appetite changes
MAIN BENEFITS
-Timothy hay: several cuts, high in fiber, & widely used as the daily base
-Orchard grass: usually softer & sweeter-smelling, good for picky rabbits or those who prefer a gentler texture.
-Meadow hay: typically a more varied mix, which can increase interest & foraging behavior
-Ryegrass or oat hay: can be more palatable & add enrichment through different stem shapes and flavors
-Alfalfa Legume Hay: usually for nursing moms, infant through adolescence & again for seniors needing to eat more
PRACTICAL APPROACH
For most adult rabbits, the best strategy is still unlimited grass hay as the foundation, then using different types to keep intake high & feeding interesting. If your rabbit is eating less hay than usual, adding a second grass hay is often more useful than changing the whole diet at once.

ATTENTION - Little Cottontails are still being born...
Every year we are contracted by caring people who have found a baby cottontail and "What do I do? Can you take the little one?"
Initially you should look for the nest and if found, return the kit to the nest, cover the nest lightly. Keep an eye on the nest, Mom should return around dawn and again at dusk. If Mom does not return to feed, you'll need to reach out to Kathy (below).
🐰 Prepare a well ventilated box (tall enough to prevent jumping out) for the baby. Place a small towel or perhaps a placemat in the bottom. Place some damp grass or hay in the bottom - NO other food or drink until directed to do so by Kathy. Put the box in a dark, quiet area in your house.

If you send us a message you will receive an auto-reply directing you to Kathy Meyer, a Licensed Colorado Wildlife Rehabilitator and her phone number 303-726-7897.

Hopping by to remind you - NEVER, NEVER, NEVER go to a veterinarian who tells you to fast your rabbit prior to having surgery.

Any veterinarian who tells you to do so, is NOT a rabbit savvy veterinarian. Your rabbit’s digestive system is very sensitive and not going to a rabbit savvy vet can kill your rabbit!
