I need help for my rabbit?

Question

My rabbit has been sick of the hot weather (he lives outside) and he has been laying in the dirt next to a really sharp plant and has been eating it. It's really hard to get him out and whenever you get him out he runs back. I decided to lock him in his cage for a few minutes and he just ran back. The dirt is ant infested and I'm afraid he is going to hurt himself with the plant!

Answer 1

Rabbits die in hot weather so you need to put him in his cage and put him in a cool place with plenty of cool fresh water for it to drink.

Answer 2

You need to put your bunny in a pen and away from the ants and out of the sun

I have a bunny and he is inside

Answer 3

he should be inside.

Answer 4

i live in 100 degree weater and my bunnies live out side go to home depot or wal mart and see if they have any wood and make a little fence and put his food away from the plant and any time he goes near the plant he gets no food al night

i did it on my bunnys and it worked on them

so try it'

Answer 5

put a frozen water bottle outside with ur rabbit. then the rabbit will go to the water bottle instead of the plant. u might want to move his home some place with a little more shade and no sharp plants. hope this helps!

Answer 6

my rabbit used to live outside and in really hot weather, I would just put her in her carrier and bring her inside for a while.  My friend's rabbit died of heat exposure so I would just let him take a break from the heat for a little and bring him inside.

Here is a list of plants that are toxic to rabbits

I couldn't find anywhere to help you ID the plant which I am sorry about

You have to find a way to pick him up and bring him inside.  Rabbits are amazing with temperature changes but he probably needs a break.  If I were you I'd slowly very, very, slowly go to him with a soothing voice, pet him gently for a few minutes, then just pick him up and hold him securely and just bring him inside.  

Good Luck and I hope that I helped

Answer 7

do you think you can move the cage? or maybe you can put him in a temporary cage and then dig out the plant and put some ant killer stuff for the ants. try bleach i did and it works

hope this helped
