    My bunny is having whole house as a digging spot, mainly on bed. she jumps so high to get on bed and if she see me there lying, then she will dig at bedsheet, me and try to bite holes in pillow. one day, she climbed and made many holes in blanket while i was not there. now my mom is mad at me but i still let my bunny to get over bed. My bunny don't requires any enclosures, in fact i have just laid down a carpet for her under bed and she likes it. She can go anywhere she wants, and at night, she sleeps at a specific spot near the wall or sometimes climb on bed and wake me up. she give me high five ONLy when she sees a treat in my hand or else she would swat me. i tried to make her friend with a bunny ( a baby exactly), but she just attacked her and she even scratched me hard when i tried to protect that little bun. she is also well potty-trained. but sometimes poop stuck on her tail and she wipe her butt on floor and it is so cute to see her doing it (my mom get angry)

      The bed thing is a territorial behavor, is your rabbit spayed? If the poop is a problem maybe is not eating a lot of hay? A vet can help you with that... Your bunny needs toys to chew or enough hay all the time, maybe that's why she is chewing your stuff... Try to make it better for your mom, keep it clean and dont let her chew the wires is dangerous for him and expensive for your mom. About the baby rabbit friend you need to do it in a neutral space, female rabbits are more territorial and if she is not spayed her hormones make her act agresive.

      @@PerLaStar thnx but she don't poop on bed. she is AUTO-potty trained. she poops in bathroom. and i covered all wires that she can chew, so there is no wire for her. also she have her favorite 2 soft toys, 1 elephant and 1 tiger (i tried to give her dog one also but she rejected it). and now she dont chew stuff.

    So we made our bunnies a cardboard box mansion with several places to enter and exit. They have a spot under my desk near one litter box. They have my whole hallway, my whole bedroom, my bed....I need to refill their hay cube mobiles from their Smell Pet Select play table. Xiao Wu demolished those. Honestly, rabbits are a blessing.

    Out of all the toys we got for our baby bunny she is now 6 months old and she loves my granddaughters fluorescent basketball he pushes it all around the house with her nose keeping it in line with where she wants to bring it she also occasionally rides on it LOL so cute she's no longer entertained with her grass/ hay balls sticks etc any regular rabbit toys she does also does not like cardboard she prefers our baseboards she also likes the ball like it's her friend and we tried to give her a very small basketball of her own but she wants nothing to do with it she's already claimed my granddaughters

    I liked seeing that cardboard box corner! I did my corner naturally, he loves going under the sink, and instead of eating the wall, I arrange a bunch of cardboard underneath it, he loves shredding it and angrily rearranging the pieces, but I'll try the newspaper stuffing idea (hay can get super messy, especially in a very small living area, cleaning up hay is my nemesis)...

  • @juliewinkler9203

    Could you possibly make a video about bunnies who are picky eaters, and how to train them to eating a more varied diet? my bunny-boy, Jorah only wants to eat a handful of different kinds of veggies and herbs (he used to ONLY want coriander and lettuce), and refuses to eat any fruits, other than apples and bananas. I guess he just have very strong preferences 😅🐇

    • @ArtistChibi
      @ArtistChibi 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That would be a good idea for a video, if she hasn't made one already. My little Shen is extremely picky about his veggies when given in the morning. Xiao Wu not so much. Shen will specifically pick out the green leaf lettuce and if there isn't anything left that he does like, he'll SLOWLY pick at the other foods. He's not too fond of herbs and I think the only saving grace about his picky eating is that he is willing to eat his hay above all else, unless bananas are involved.

      my bun was not like it but she is now a very picky eater. when i got her in beginning, she was wild and adopted, so she would eat any herb or grass, but now (after 1.9 years) she got really selective about her food. she always comes to my mom when she eats dinner hoping that she might give her some good food. And for now, she only eats 1 type of grass and SOMETIMES lettuce

    Hi, I love your videos and they’ve been the most helpful since we got our baby bunny. She’s 5 months now! I have a question about her eating habits, we buy her alfalfa hay and she only likes eating the sort of little shaved bits that come at the bottom of the bag and she doesn’t really eat the actual hay pieces. Do you have some advice on how to get her to eat all of it? Even if we go to hand feed her pieces of hay she just spits it out!

    So like 2 days ago I moved my bunny into a enclosure and he was like scared cause before that he was abandoned. I’ve been spending time with him and making toys with toilet rolls and wool and stuff like that. He isn’t interested in the toys and I don’t have pellets. He won’t eat the carrots beans and cucumber I give him as “treats”. He is still scared and that will take time, but if you have any suggestions pls tell me thx 😊

    I rescued an abandoned bunny; first ever bunny. She has been spayed & gets along with my cats quite well. I have gone through videos galore so she has toys, chew treats, etc and rabbit proofed as much as possible. She does have a gated off hallway & room to be when I am away versus a cage of any kind. The one issue I am having in allowing her to free roam more often is picking apart the carpets. I have tried a natural, non-toxix "yuk" spray but this just has her find a different spot or carpet. How can I stop this? HELP!!
