  1. At petco, or at alot of pet stores, they have rabbit and small animal shampoo , and that will probly work


  2. white on the feet are normal. does not come off. Same with black rabbits, but under the feet is brown.

  3. White rabbits often have some discoloration around their feet and rear ends.

    For starters, keep their cage clean and dry and don't bed them on straw.  Straw tends to yellow white animals.

    You can try a whitening shampoo for animals.  Spot cleaning feet and rear ends (not bathing the entire rabbit) will get the stains out.  Make sure you rinse the shampoo thoroughly and dry your rabbit.

    For quick clean ups prior to show, hypoallergenic baby wipes work great on feet!

  4. I don't show my rabbits but the white ones don't have yellow patches. they have dirty feet but that's all. I know that they hate water and shouldn't be bathed unless they are extremely nasty. They should go away if you keep their pen clean. I don't clean ours every day but i do try to clean them twice a week. I also use cedar chips for bedding. Its a natural flea repellent and the rabbits love it.  

  5. Nothing until he sheds out without using harsh chemicals that rabbits should not be exposed to ever- it's only a cosmetic issue.  In the future keeping his enclosure scrupulously clean will help to prevent urine stains.  I have 4 rabbits, 3 are mostly white.  No urine stains.  I change litter daily, keep a layer of timothy hay over the litter to drain away urine, and clean up any accidents properly.  So, wait for him to shed the stained fur and keep his enclosure cleaner to prevent them from reforming.  

  6. I know how you feel! I have a white fuzzy lop and he likes to spray.  He gets it on himself and it is so hard to get off.  I show my rabbits, so I really need him to be clean for the show!  I you find a really good way to clean them up tell me!  I just let him clean himself and he does an okay job at it... shedding works to, but I hate when they shed!
