Does anybody know if it is ok for bunnies to eat cardboard boxes?
Mine usually have an array of boxes which are their "bunny hotels" and I cut holes in them and make tunnels but they insist on converting them into their own designs.
I have watched them and they do seem to eat the cardboard - will this cause blockages?
I have taken them away this morning as Billy wasn't eating or poo'ing last night and was really REALLY quiet - meaning I could cuddle him for AGES instead of squirming (hes a little rascal!) and he just lay in my arms and when I put him down he just lay there. I monitored him over night (by putting him in a separate cage to Rosie, but next to her, so as to check if he ate, poo'd, etc) and luckily this morning there were a few pellets in the tray and a wee and a cecal one on the newspaper squished. He was jumping about as well THANK GOD.
