Ava, can rabbits be domesticated like cats and dogs? Are they trainable to not chew on furniture and stuff?

That's okay, salvete!
I think so, Queen. If a rabbit is neutered or spayed it makes them chew on furniture and things a LOT less. However, my bunny isn't spayed and she doesn't chew on furniture at all. She does chew on clothes, though. She ruined a lot of my clothes because she chews holes in them.
But rabbits can be potty trained to use litter boxes like cats. My bunny is now litter box trained. As far as them being pets, they're a lot like cats and dogs. My bunny will run around and lick my face and act like a dog sometimes by begging for food every time I open the fridge, but sometimes she's like a cat because she likes to be by herself and she sleeps A LOT.

Hmm, I wonder how my husband would feel about having a rabbit. Although we are more partial to dogs, especially larger breeds, pit bulls, German Shepherds, labs and Dobermans. My ultimate would be a lab/doberman mix. 
Is your bunny a specific breed?

They have large breeds of rabbits called Flemish Giants. :D I don't know how they compare to a dog, but they are pretty big!
My bunny is a mutt. :P We don't know much about her other than that she's partially a lop because her ears aren't pointy and they droop. But when I went to pick her up, her brothers and sisters all had pointy ears. She was the only one with droopy ears. D:

Peroxide is good for droplets and small puddles of blood, but anything larger than that and you need an industrial cleanser. Or so I have been told

I find that blood stains aren't that hard to get out, but it depends a lot on the type of fabric you are using!
I use cloth pads during my period and they're all flannel, so as soon as I'm ready to change pads for the day, I take it off, rinse it in the sink under some really cold water, (that gets most of the stain out, usually) then I put them on the shower floor, then when I take a shower, I get them all soapy and kick them around in the water for a little bit, then that gets rid of more of the stain, then I throw them in the wash and when they come out... no stain! :D

Ava, you pose a rather interesting quandary for me, I have never heard of flannel cloth pads. Makes me want to google this and if I can not be a slave to tampons anymore, well hot damn.

I buy my pads from various stores on Etsy.
This shop and this one are my two favorites, though!
I love cloth pads, I could go on forever about why they are healthier and more comfortable than disposable pads and tampons. (Did I mention they leak a hell of a lot less??)

I got curious and Googled cloth pads, holy cow I did not know they were so plentiful. Might just be making the switch. Things to think about.

They're also very cost effective.
While you might waste, what? Anywhere from $10-$15 every month buying pads and tampons, with cloth pads you just buy them once and you're set for years!
I've had some of my pads since summer of 2011 and they're still fully functional! Most of my pads are from 2014 and they're also still good. :D

I've used the tampons for so long, not sure how going back to pads would work for me. Never know until you try, right?

It looks inventive but I wouldn't want to have to deal with that mess, lol
The new pads now have scent blockers and these don't, so... yeah.
That seems like a lot more work to have to wash individually outside of the washer.
I wouldn't want to throw those things in with the normal clothes xD

In my experience, I stink a lot less with the cloth pads than I did with disposables because my craw can actually breathe in cloth ones vs. disposables.
And honestly, who are they kidding with the "scented" pads?! They don't cover up that fish-copper-shit smell like... ever. xD Then, in my experience they didn't. And I don't think it's safe to put perfume on your craw, I mean, powder is fine if it's talc free and then something that helps your pH balance should be fine too.
It's not an awful lot of work, I don't actually wash each one individually rather, I have to rinse them to get the stain out. Then once they're rinsed then I throw them in the laundry and wash them with the rest of my stuff.
Sort of like, if you got blood on your panties. (Not unless you're one of those people that would just throw the panties away. :P)

@ ava; well, not to gross anyone out much but everyone smells differently from strong/mild. lmao
The scented ones work for me and do cover-up any ehhhiness.
I only use always.
But yeah, if those cloth ones work for you better then that's great.
I just wouldn't want to deal with it anymore than I have to, haha!
I already wash my bras by hand because I want them to last longer.
But yeah, I throw away underwear when they are tired and the lace gets holes in it p:
I wear boyshorts vs panties and I don't have much accidents since panties are flimsy and boyshorts aren't (for me anyway).

I know for me, I smelled horrible when I was using disposables. xD
For me, the cloth pads are better. I feel they're better for the environment and just healthier for me, though. :D
I could go on forever about why I think more women should use cloth pads.
I think a lot of people don't give them a chance because they do think it's a lot of work and a lot of girls are grossed out by the sight of their own blood.
I mean, I think it's a feminist issue too, that women shouldn't be scared of their bodies, they should embrace them!  The only reason some girls are scared of their blood is because of the way society says, "menstrual blood is gross and should be hidden". That's why in those pad commercials they use blue liquid instead of red. D:
But yeah, that's just my opinion.
I feel strongly about my glad rags. 8DD

I no longer have a need for feminine hygiene products...
I was a faithful tampon user...but I could only use Tampax...for any other brand would cause irritation that would need to be treated.
I had never heard of reusable pads until I no longer needed such items.
I had heard of the "cup"...and thought that once one would get over the "gross" factor, that would be a cost effective alternative to tampons...but I never tried one.
I was always concerned that I would need to empty the cup in a public restroom...possibly coming to the sink with blood all over my hands...YIKES! Lol!
I'm glad I don't need to worry about such things anymore!
