New Kit
Hi,
I recently adopted a bunny, he's 4 years old and is neutured. He was adopted as a lone bun and I was advised this would be best for him as he was previously alone also. (He is a house rabbit). He seems to be bonding well with me- he'll follow me around and seek me out. He has a huge cupboard as his 'room' and the hallway as his own- he's not kept in a cage. In his 'room' is his litter tray, hay manger and cottage which is somewhere covered if he needs it as well as toys and feeding & water bowl.
He does seem to be fairly territoral so I clean out his room when he's in another room, and he's recently taken to nipping my fella when I'm not in the room. Anyway, my concern is that he tends to stay in his room and hallway till later in the evening. I do go to him and sit there to make it easier for him to approach me. If i'm there in the day he does come in the living room and spends time there interacting.
Am I right to be concerned about this? As I write he is lopped over on his side having a snooze, obviously happy and relaxed!
Thanks in advance for any advice
