I've been told that I don't spend enough time with my rabbits and that I don't love them or deserve them, and I know I do love them very much but I don't know if I really do spend much time with them.
I go to see them in the morning but never longer than 5 minutes because I'm always running late, then the evening is probably only about 15 mins, and on weekends I will go in and out for most of the day sitting with them and playing with them. I don't let them free range very much, which they love, because I can't catch them. I have spent less time with them recently, and Izzy and Archie are in my room now and rather than running up to me like they normally do, they're just laying in their pet carrier together. Is this because I don't spend enough time with them? Can rabbits ever forget people or like people less? I feel really bad because although they've got all the basic care they need, some things my Mum said earlier have made me feel like I'm neglected them and they're not getting as much attention as they used to get, and I know rabbits don't think like this but I don't want them to think I've forgotten them or don't love them any more.
