Hi,
I have a house rabbit called Yoshi, he is a lop-ear he will be a year old in just over a week. He is housed in a Nero 3 indoor plastic Savic cage with a large run attached which is open in the morning and when I get home from work.
He was castrated in Feb/March and just after this he turned very naughty for about three weeks but has since calmed down. Now he is totally inactive, he will come out to eat his food or to scratch his cage (which he has only started to do after the op) but apart from that he just lies in his cage.
Prior to the op he was always out and about, jumping up on the bed, running over the settee and looking out the window, sitting under the coffee table. The only toy he will play with is his toy with treats in, I have tried several toys including cardboard boxes with newspaper but he does not play with any of them.
The vet has said he is healthy and has a nice coat and shape to him. I am at a loss what to do, whenever I do take him out of his cage for a hug he will sit for two - three mins then jump down straight back into his cage. I have sat outside the run with his treats he will come out for them but goes straight back in,I have even tried dropping the treats around the room. He seems to be happy as he flops over to his side to lie down an I read that this means he is happy
Any help you can provide will be gratefully received, I look forward to hearing from you.
