OUR FORUM IS UP BUT WE ARE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF UPDATING AND FIXING THINGS. SOME THINGS WILL LOOK WEIRD AND/OR NOT BE CORRECT. YOUR PATIENCE IS APPRECIATED. We are not fully ready to answer questions in a timely manner as we are not officially open, but we will do our best.

My rabbit is almost one year old and has never had his nails clipped formally. I’ve clipped one here and there when I could, such as when he puts his paws up on his cage wire to stand up on his hind legs. His nails are really long, and he had an accident a couple days ago when he snapped one and bled a lot. He is a nervous, jumpy rabbit (as my vet likes to call it). I’ve tried putting him on his back, wrapping him in a towel, and approaching him gently when he’s relaxing. I feel so helpless that I’ve even thought about giving him some drowsy medicine to clip his nails while he’s asleep. Have any of you tried doing this? Honestly, it seems like the only option I have left. Maybe some Nyquil or Benadryl will do the trick? Any tips would be appreciated! Thank you
