Is your rabbit sleep a lot?

Hi all,

It's now a week that we have little Tiny with us. But he seems to sleep a lot during the day... so I was wondering if this was normal for a bunny or maybe we have a sleepy one! :wink:

He just started to get out of his cage at the weekend, we took him to the Vet for a check on Saturday, everything is fine. He loved his new pet carrier so much that he spend all the day inside and on Sunday as well, maybe it's because he's all cosy in there and has little all to see what's going on around at the same time!

Also he makes me laugh as he can't walk on the wooden floor, he's freaking out... so he stays on his big mat!

I love him he's just a funny one!
(He's 1 year and 1/2, has been at a refuge for a while and was abandoned by a family with kids... poor thing)

Aww poor we soul im sure he will be happy now though.
My bun doesnt sleep a lot, he sometimes does but mainly out running around in his run and being nosey. Maybe yours is just not very confident and maybe a bit wary of wandering about doing his own thing.
I`m sure when he gets more use to noises and his surroundings he will be fine..

Good luck xx

Buns are most active at dawn and dusk. Some days Deej is up and running about a lot, but most days he likes to snooze all afternoon!

Enjoy the fact he's sleeping! :lol:
All day yesterday mine were running through the house then into the garden and back again... I wouldnt mind but when you have things to do and hae to supervise them out in the garden.
He may still be getting used to everything as well... I am sure he will perk up soon enough - thats if your ready for it :wink:

:lol: bertie sleeps more than the cats!

Mine sleep a lot during the day.

Muppet has a definite 'down time' between 11.00 and 15.00 He may or may not be out and about before or after.

I must have a nutty one, I've never seen him asleep - I've had him 6 months!! :shock:

Mine tend to doze all afternoon unless I rustle a vege bag!!! Then they snap awake and come belting through to the kitchen to beg for a nibble!

Mine too - they are so lazy. Apart from the younger 2 who snooze a bit, but as soon as they realise i'm in the house they start demanding attention.
