Hi
We’ve just got max an 8 wk old mini lop he’s fab but this is our first house rabbit and abit unsure what’s normal to be honest the internet seems pretty contradictory in the main!
He has a large puppy pen all set up with a den house tunnel scratch mats he’s taken to litter training great all good.
First week we left him be in his cage sat with him to talk to him and after a week he was pretty comfortable didn’t jump or hide. Week 2 we sat in his pen with him and let him come to us all good he let us stroke him, he really took to my 7yr old and will chase her come when she calls etc but with me and partner he seems to have gone backwards he’s not scared but doesn’t really interact anymore. My daughter stays a week with us and a week at her dads so she week 3 now and she isn’t here he seems to be missing her I guess and is sticking to his cage.
He has the full downstairs to explore last week he was all over binkying around everywhere this week quite and sticking close to cage even though the door is always open.
Not sure if I’ve done something wrong here but I’d assumed he’d get more confident with time but seems to have gone back a bit this week. He will flop and sleep while I’m sat here and come sniff me but other than that isn’t really playing with any of his toys or wanting to interact at all.
Just with him been all over and so confident last week he was trying to get over barriers to explore more last week to just sat in his room seems odd.
