Wise Old Thumper
My 19 year old niece has recently got a mini lop and it's really brought home to me how hard it is to give a blind rabbit a good life
My niece has only had her rabbit for about a month but already she is confident and happy around people, will run up to you for attention as soon as you go in the house, plays happily with her toys, jumps on everything and is generally so happy.
Poor Louie startles at everything even when you talk to him before entering the room where he is. He runs at every noise knocking his and the cats food bowls flying which in turn scares him even more.
He has loads of toys but most of them he just ignores. I've given him cardboard boxes to jump into and through but he just chews them. I don't suppose you get much fun if you can't see what you are doing :?
He never jumps up on things like the sofa as he doesn't know they are there. He spends a lot of time just sitting on his own.
The only one he really connects with is Molly the cat, although he still startles when he hears her come into the room, he then runs round her and loves to follow her around. She though gets annoyed with him and runs off
I just feel very sorry for him and don't know how to make things better for him.
