A kind vet might do it for free. Or I can suggest buying some clippers and doing it yourself -- clippers arnet expensive and it just means that when they grow agian you can do them yourself agian without hassle! Here is a great website with info on how to clip nails without harming your rabbit: http://www.rabbithaven.org/BunnyBasics/grooming.htm Good luck! Rabbits are GREAT pets!

It's not very hard to do or you could ask you vet to help, even show you how. You can use cat nail clippers to do this. Be sure to have some Kwik Stop or some cornstarch to stop any bleeding if you cut a bit too short. It happens, don't panic. Wrap your rabbit in a towel to help keep him calm. It's best if one person holds and another clips. Trim just the tip of his nails. If you do this often you won't need to worry about cutting a lot off. Rest between feet so your rabbit can cool off and settle down. Being in a towel heats them up a bit. If you would like to see it done and your vet won't show you, there is a video that explains how to handle a rabbit and trim their nails. It's at: http://www.rabbitcare.org/video.htm
