Young Bun
How much time do you spend with your indoor bunny and how do you play with them? Our 10.5 week bunny seems content lying around, being in his house/area eating hay, drinking water and eating pellets. We have tried lots of toys: toilet roll tubes filled with pellets, willow sticks, hay ball, plastic tube (he decided to eat it). He loves the willow sticks, but hasn’t shown much interest with anything else. In the evening he comes out of his area (oven though the door has been open all day) into the free roam area to run around but for the majority of the day he’s happy on his own, in his own area, is this normal? How can we get him to interact with us more during the day? I don’t want him to be bored. Don’t get me wrong he’s happy, chilled and we see binkies etc, but I just wonder if we can do more with him in the day time.
Also he’s not keen on being picked up and will kick initially but settle and snuggle up very quickly . Should we continue to pick him up or just leave him to come up to us when he’s ready?
At what age can we let him out onto the grass (just for a play). The house next door has a dog that barks really loud, should we refrain from letting the bunny into the garden because of the dog/barking?
We are worried the barking will scare him.
For info, our bunny is in a pen type cage overnight and his door is open all day for him to free roam in our utility room.
Sorry about all of the questions I’m really grateful for all of the guidance provided, as experienced bunny owners you have been immensely helpful. Thank you.
