Yes, you can. You can use a human nail clipper or other animal nail clippers, but the best option is a nail clipper designed for rabbits. WARNING: You might be able to see red blood vessels near the end and middle of the nail. DON"T cut this part. Only cut the tip of the nail or where there are no blood vessels or the nail will bleed and your poor bunny will be in much pain. If it's hard to see the blood vessels, shine a torchlight on the nail. But make sure you still do clip enough, or the nail will break and it will still bleed. If this happens, go to the vet immediately.

Yes, you can declaw a rabbit, but be sure to confirm it with a vet, and ask your vet how long to cut it and how old it has to be. For my answer i would say it would have to be atleast about 7 to 9 months old for your rabbit not to feel uncomfiratable.

Yes, you do have to cut rabbit's toe nails. Do you know why? Well, the will rip and your bunny will not feel so good, and it keeps them healthy. And heres another tip, you can put Orange Juice -just a little- in they're water and often feed them with veggies. This will keep they're nutrition. You could also put oatmeal in their rabbit pellets (food).

You can give them a trim but i would recommend you get it done by a vet. But DO NOT get them declawed.
