Hi
I've had my rabbit, Molly for 7 years. She's always been kept outdoors until a month ago, when we decided, due to age and local foxes, that we would bring her indoors. She is bonded to Gerry, who we rehomed in May last year. As far as I'm aware, he's always been an outdoor rabbit too.
They seem much happier inside, and more relaxed. There is definitely more binkies and flopping from them both. Gerry also had an excess caecotroph problem when we got him. Since he's been indoors, he's eaten them all and never leaves any which is fantastic. Any ideas why he's done this? Should he be kept indoors from now on because of this?
They are so cheeky and mischievous, I never knew rabbits could be so cheeky. Even though Molly is 7 years old and has chronic sore hocks, she leaps easily from a standstill to my 3ft high bed, and makes herself at home. :lol: I also barricade an area beside their cage which has all their food and herbs, and Gerry has found a way to get to them. He's highly intelligent. Should I give them more things to do? Should I get them interactive games (like you can get for dogs)? They get a run around outside the cage daily for around 2-3 hours in the evening. Once spring comes, they can go outside in their large run during the day, which will hopefully help with boredom.
