  IT’S EVERYWHERE!!! I didn’t think it would be THIS bad! I brushed her for probably a half an hour and got two huge brush-fulls of hair. But it keeps coming! How long does it last and does anyone have any good grooming tips?

  Mine seem to shed when the seasons change it varies on how long it last. This last time it was a while it seemed. It seemed like about 3 weeks. I just tried to brush them the best I could. Sometimes I would wet my hand and pet them. Usagi loves to be petted but doesn’t like brushing that much. I vacuumed a lot.

  Spike was shedding a lot at the wildlife center when I met him, and they handed me a tape lint roller for myself afterwards. Dollar Stores or Big Lots. Just got one for future use.
  
  BB’s comb that is sold in the store is very good for getting a lot of hair off during a shed. I have a couple. Always comb in the direction the fur grows at a slight angle. They usually like it. It can last 3 weeks sometimes. There’s usually 2 big sheds a year, and two mini ones.

  This is the first time I’ve seen her shed and I’ve had her for almost a year. I need to find that darn lint remover
