Young Bun
Hi, we recently adopted 2 bunnies from a rescue. They are 8 months old neutered brothers. They seem very bonded and have settled reasonably well in the 2 weeks we have had them. They are living indoors and have a room of their own 8ft x 8ft enclosed by a 3ft pen around the whole room that comes off our living room with no door so we can see them and they can see us all the time. We bought a 6ft indoor cage for them as a base and they seem quite content in it. We leave the doors open all the time however the thing I want advice on is that they will not come out of the cage. Last week I tried to encourage them out into the space by putting their food outside. They came out but then it all seemed to kick off. It looked like one was biting the bum of the other and then he was turning on him and then there was lots of chasing and turning on one another which looked aggressive rather than fun. They seem to be ok since but still won't come out of the cage even though they could whenever they want. Should I just leave them to find their own way out and not force the issue again?
