MCRS Nail Trim 101

Trimming nails is an essential skill for anyone with a rabbit in their life! Nail Trim 101 is an in-person, introductory-level training class offered by Minnesota Companion Rabbit Society for anyone (18+ years old) interested in learning to trim their rabbit's nails. This class includes a live demonstration, step-by-step instructions, tips, and tricks. We'll cover choosing the right trimmers and supplies, bunny handling, trimming technique for solo trimmers and two-person teams, troubleshooting, breed-specific tips, and more! BONUS: we'll teach you scent-gland cleaning too! There will be time at the end for questions and individual help. The fee is $20, payable by cash or card on the day of the event. Class size is limited. Sign up here to secure your spot!

Things to know: There are no required supplies. However, you may bring one (1) rabbit and your nail trimming supplies to this event. If you do not bring a bunny or supplies, that is OK! To attend, rabbits must be in good health. If you bring your bunny, they will leave with trimmed nails and clean scent glands. We will have water and litterboxes for your bunny, but they will need to be in their carrier for part of the class.

Our trainer is a long-time MCRS volunteer and bunny mom who trims bunny nails for our organization every weekend.
