Roger is being such a pain! I love the little guy to bits but I was just wondering if his behaviour is going to improve any. I've never had a rabbit from as young as I had him (I've always got them older) so I'm not sure how their behaviour changes from this time.
He's extremely destructive. This I don't really mind, because I can bunny-proof to the greatest extent possible. He's gone through a fair portion of carpet and wallpaper though.
I seem to annoy him? Whilst he definitely isn't afraid of me and approaches me, flops in my presence, etc, he just does not seem to want anything to do with me unless I have food. Whenever I try to touch him he hops away unless he is eating or lying down when occasionally he will even grind his teeth in pleasure. I don't understand. He actively pushes my hand away with his teeth. He is a very active little bunny - can't stay still for long.
He was neutered about three weeks ago and is about 3 and 3/4 months old. He is bonded to my older doe, Riley, who on the whole loves attention and is around 10 months.
Will he get any friendlier/enjoy the attention or is he always going to be like this? I'm thinking it might be his age.
Thank you!
