Posting tips

If your rabbit has shown any serious medical concerns, please see a rabbit-savvy vet first before posting. Posts about clearly urgent health issues that require professional care will be removed. If your rabbit has not eaten or used the litter box in the past 12 hours, visit an emergency hospital or make an urgent appointment immediately.
- See Veterinary Emergencies for other common symptoms of problems in rabbits.
- See here for resources if you are in need of financial assistance for your pet.
- We can only give suggestions that are not a replacement for professional advice.
If you have found a wild rabbit, please see here for proper next steps and resources.
For behavior problems, please include the rabbit's age, how long you have had the rabbit, when the behavior occurred, and if/when it was neutered. This will help other rabbitors tailor advice appropriate to your situation.
For breed ID posts, please include the rabbit's age, weight, and full-body pictures of their profile in good day-time lighting. More tips here.
Rehoming posts are welcome, but please read through our guide first.

Please review the rules below for banned topics before posting. r/Rabbits also has a very strict spam and troll filter. Please allow time for moderators to review and approve the queue throughout the day. Posts that do not follow our rules below may be removed without warning.

Rules

No spam.

Spam, bots, trolls, & blatant karma-seeking accounts are not welcome and will be banned.

Limited self-promotion of commercial sites, blogs, or video channels may be allowed, but please participate in the community, and contact the moderators before posting.

Keep individual posts to 2-3 maximum a day. If you would like to share more pictures, please create an image album and share the link in a single post instead.

No vote solicitation.

e.g. "r/aww didn't like my bunny", "Can I get some love..", "I heard that...", "Should I post more?", etc.

Your rabbit will gain karma based on their merit by being a cute bunny.

No help or diagnosis requests for rabbits that require a hands-on medical exam to evaluate.

While there are some issues that can be monitored at home if necessary, users should not be posting online for...

clearly urgent health issues that need to be diagnosed and treated after a hands-on exam
issues that cannot be evaluated with an online picture or description (e.g. weight, bald spots, lumps)

No posts requesting help with wildlife rehabilitation.

This is a subreddit focused on domestic pet rabbits, and while pictures of wild rabbits in their natural habitat are still welcome, your local wildlife department, rehabilitator, and veterinary hospital are the best resources for appropriate care for orphaned or injured wildlife.

Inexperienced care to wild animals can easily be fatal, and most subscribers to r/rabbits are unqualified to offer appropriate advice for your region.

No obvious or regular defensive willful negligence of pet rabbits.

Any obvious posts of sub-standard pet rabbit welfare (including but not limited to small cages, wire flooring, untreated medical issues, dangerous heights, problematic diets) will be removed.

If there is regular evidence of poor pet rabbit care after receiving repeated feedback from the community, a user may have their posts removed and be banned based on moderator discretion.

No image posts about bathing rabbits or handling rabbits on their backs.

Bathing and trancing can cause unnecessary stress to rabbits and are not recommended unless medically necessary due to the dangers of the hold. Photos of rabbits manually placed on their backs may also be removed based on moderator discretion even if the rabbit is not fully tranced.

No image posts of rabbits with other predatory animals.

*Including but not limited to dogs, cats, ferrets, and chickens. *

While many species of animals can co-exist in the same pet household, it is important to be aware that serious injuries can quickly happen even under supervision. Please share rabbit-only pictures in the subreddit without other animals in the frame.

No posts advertising breeders, intentional litters, or asking for breeding assistance.

Many rabbitors feel strongly about spaying & neutering rabbits as it can be important to their health. r/rabbits is a pet rabbit subreddit that discourages breeding and encourages rescue.

Pictures of intentional baby litters are not welcome. Do not advertise specific rabbitries in comments or reddit usernames.

No references to rabbits as food.

r/rabbits is a pet rabbit subreddit. Please be considerate. No posts, mentions, or discussions about rabbit dispatch, processing, or consumption are allowed. Food jokes about rabbits will generally be removed, and suspected trolls will be immediately banned.

Outdated and dangerous advice not welcome.

Recent rabbit care has changed greatly in the past few decades. Recommendations such as pineapple juice for rabbits in stasis are not accurate. Do not assist feed or massage rabbits in stasis without checking for bloat first. Advising users to self-medicate with OTC drugs and mineral oil is often incredibly dangerous. Users may have comments removed or be fully banned with or without warning.

Be polite with constructive criticism.

There is no tolerance for rudeness, personal attacks, or any general bad or poor behavior. You may have strong opinions, but keep them constructive and educational. Do not threaten, harass, or bully other users. Site-wide harassment accounts will be banned. Users may be banned with or without warning.

Post sources of non-original content. No AI generated content.

Leave a comment with credit or best guess at a source if a post is not personal original content. AI generated content will be removed. Users that publicly claim images that are clearly not their own will be banned.

No reposts within 7 days or without explicit credit.

Reposts of viral material within 7 days will be removed. Reposts of other users' content, especially with no credit given, may result in a ban.

No direct requests for personal fundraising.

Non-profit rescue fundraising may be allowed with proof. Please do not use our community for your personal fundraising and look for other resources instead.

Appropriately title and mark content as NSFW.

While posts discussing animal cruelty, animal abuse, or graphic health and care problems are generally welcome as long as they don't target a specific business or individual account, please appropriately warn users of the content by marking it as an NSFW post and in the title. Not everyone is comfortable with viewing upsetting graphic content.
