HI all,
I am new (hence the title!) and was advised to visit this site and use this forum as there is a lot of experienced bunny keepers!
I currently have a new house rabbit. I have had him 1 week exactly, we seem to have gotten past the trying to rip my fingers off stage (as of 2 days ago) but dont want to talk too soon! I can get him out of his cage and cuddle him for hours but he wont come to me yet...my current challenge is litter training him and am wondering if anyone has any tips.
He was out of the cage yesterday and hopping around and depositing his bumbles along the way. I did try to pick him and the bumbles up to put together in the litter tray but he is still nervy and doesnt seem to like me picking him up.....
I am not sure if I am doing whats right by him or me for that matter....he is my 2nd rabbit but unfortunately I had to have my first rabbit put down at about 13 weeks (devestating) so have not successfully litter trained a rabbit as yet......
any ideas?
I am really looking forward to chatting to people who like rabbits and understand and know about the things that I do not yet!
hope to get to chat to lots of people soon
