    Perhaps you could let you play in your bathroom. I know my bathroom has an easy to clean floor and is small enough to pick up anything my bunny may want to chew on. Just make sure the floor is nice and clean before hand. You can also get a few things to set the place up like a play pen. Such as a (fairly clean) cardboard box to go in and chew, washed plastic bottle caps to flip around, and my bunny loves to have a toliet paper roll (the cardboard part) filled with hay to play with.

    Silly bunny! She may just need a little time to adjust. I'd also suggest working on her litter box skills. c;

    My bunny LOVES to chew on the wood when I let him out to play in our screened in porch. I scold him and make him stop, but he is very persistent. I specifically got a stone chewing block for his cage so he wouldn't associate wood with chewing but he rarely chews on it. Would getting a water mister bottle and spritzing him with it help teach him to not do that?

We didn't notice she chewed the wires at first, also I would love to put a litter box but then there would be no place for her she is to huge!

    Charlie, my bunny, likes to chew on wires as well. Hmm, I would recomend a bigger cage. Charlie's is a little more cramped with his litter box so I just sure to offer him plently of play time.

I have a dutch and a rex, and they 2 of them are easy to take care of. They also are very calm. Lionheads will have to be brushed every day. And personally, I don't really like them... But it's not my choice.

Lionheads are one of the more common breeds actually. They don't have to be brushed everyday, infact they take little to no grooming. I'm not a big fan of them myself but I couldn't resist having some blue eyed white babies.


I just bought a gorgeous BEW lionhead doe!! They're just gorgeous :)

Rosalind - I use a spray bottle to train my bunnies. I use stream, not mist, and after the first few times, they stopped needing to be sprayed, just seeing the bottle is enough to make them rethink their actions!

Omg, Cerritos<3, the bunny on the lower left looks exactly like my dutch rabbit, Bunny.

I have a question, is it alright to feed your bunnies Cherrios without the homey flavoring? I was just wondering, because I want to feed them more things for treats other than the store-bought ones I have.

    Cherrios are very unhealthy for rabbits, and actually so are many store-bought treats. It's best to just hand feed a veggie to make it extra special. c;
    ~edit~
    At the bottom of this website it tells you some things you shouldn't feed your rabbit. [x] as well as a whole list of veggies they can have. You could have a certain veggie you only feed by hand to make it special.
