  Posted in: Our World, Rabbits: Care, Nutrition and Well-Being

  When we talk about the sensitive issue of animal abandonment, the images that most often come to mind are usually those of dogs and cats. Yet every year, many other animals are also abandoned, given up, neglected or entrusted to associations. Rabbits, guinea pigs, pet rats, hamsters, gerbils, ferrets, birds and even reptiles are among these companions grouped together in France under the term NAC, short for “Nouveaux Animaux de Compagnie”, meaning new companion animals. Less visible in the...

  Why does my rabbit do that? Understanding the behaviours that confuse owners the most

  Posted in: Our World, Rabbits: Care, Nutrition and Well-Being

  For a long time, rabbits suffered from a misleading image: that of a quiet, discreet and supposedly “simple” pet. Yet anyone who truly lives with a rabbit quickly discovers a very different reality. A rabbit is constantly communicating. Through movements, body posture, habits, reactions and sometimes almost imperceptible sounds, rabbits express emotions, comfort, anxiety, excitement and a desire for interaction.

  These dogs we adopt for their beauty… without always understanding their real needs

  Posted in: Our World, Dogs: Care, Training, Health and Well-Being

  Some dogs capture people’s hearts before they have even taken the time to truly learn about them. Bright eyes, a wolf-like appearance, a spotted coat or a puppy face that instantly melts the whole family… Sometimes, a single photo, video or encounter is enough to start imagining life together. People picture a gentle, affectionate companion who will naturally fit into everyday family life. And when the dog is still a puppy, that feeling often becomes even stronger: what stands out most is the...

  How to organise a birthday for your rabbit? A gentle and thoughtful approach for a truly suitable moment

  Posted in: Our World, Rabbits: Care, Nutrition and Well-Being

  Organising a birthday for a rabbit does not mean creating a party, but imagining a calm, enriching moment perfectly adapted to its sensitivity. A discreet animal, deeply attached to its environment, the rabbit does not seek excitement or surprises. What it appreciates, however, are stable surroundings, gradual discoveries and gentle interactions. Celebrating its birthday therefore becomes something else entirely: a way to slow down, to observe, and to offer a subtly different experience —...
