Toys!

[Peterbunny]

Hi,

We adopted a Peter, a lovely lop 4 month old bunny, last week He is a very inquisitive little chap, during the day loves bounding around in his run, however when I put him back in his hutch he looks abit fed up Its not a very big hutch (we are planning on getting him something better next year) and currently he has a jumbo cardboard tube (that he chews and lays in), a plastic jingle ball, a metal ball (hangs on bars, stuff with veg in morning) and a couple of chewing blocks.

Is there anything else anyone can suggest? I've got a massive Pets at home very locally but they don't have much. Is there anything I could make myself??

Thanks

Toilet roll tubes stuffed with hay

if you can find any in a local asda, a bundle of thin sticks for rabbits is very entertaining. my bunnies don't usually bother with toys but they liked these.

Aww thanks for your replies!

I love the toilet roll idea! Peter loves his hay :lol: Do I need to do anything to the toilet roll tube to make it bunny friendly??

Thanks also for the tip about Asda sticks!!

Just get all the toilet paper off and it's good to go :thumb:

Another thing mine like to do with loo roll is I pop a little bit of hay and a few pellets in the tube, fold the end up and they like to toss it around and rip it open.

Mine enjoy just a cardboard box with a hole cut in filled with hay with hidden treats in.
Also you can buy wicker chew mats online for £3/4 they keep them occupied for ages and they sit and destroy them!
