You buy a rabbit brush from your nearest pet shop. Then sit your rabbit on your lap, (putting an old towel under the rabbit is good.) then gently use the brush to brush your rabbits fur, avoiding it's face.
To brush underneath the rabbit, it may take a bit of practice.
1) Pick the rabbit up so it is facing you.
2) Gently lie it down onto your legs, so it is on it's back.
3) It may take a bit of practice, but your rabbit should go into a trance. (if you can't do it straight away, don't keep trying as you could stress your rabbit. Have a break in between each attempt.)
4) Gently brush your rabbit.
Hope this helps!
