Rabbit Owner Chat V.2

[forestunseen]

Does anyone else have a rabbit that chews their plastic litterbox? I replaced it with a metal one but for budget reasons I couldn't get a massive one due to very high cost. She now uses her litterbox less and it's a real problem.

She's a 3 year old Silver Fox mix breed (big, guessing some other large breed-little info was given to me by previous owner). You have to use stuff meant for cats with her due to her size. =/

Yeah my rabbit sometimes does this too. My best advice is to make sure she has a large enough cage/pen, and give her plenty of toys and chews. It's usually out of boredom or frustration that they do it. Cas (my rabbit) tends to chew on the litterbox when I'm cleaning my room around him and he's upset by the noise, or when I have rearranged his pen. So I'm pretty sure it's when he's annoyed haha. Your rabbit sounds precious btw. Silver foxes are so cute.

She's in an XL Large Dog Cage that opens up into a dog pen, give her cardboard,reed toys,etc. She eats ANYTHING that she chews so this limits what I can give her so she doesn't get GI Stasis. I let her out three hours a day outside of the pen but she needs constant supervision when out. =/

My netherland is the SAME way!! He will eat anything he can get his teeth on. I switched to an under the bed storage tote as my rabbit’s litterbox and he hasn’t tried eating it. The plastic is pretty thick too. Also, if your bun is an only bun, she is likely a bit bored. Have you considered a companion for her?

Hi I used to own a pet rabbit it was a Lion headed bunny but I had to give it up, but other than that I love rabbits.

[coffees]

hello all! my guy's name is Mulan. :) I love him, he's a blanc de hotot. he loves it when I pet & kiss him. I impulse bought him on my birthday but I'm so glad I did, I'll definitely have more rabbits in the future.

My rabbit had to go to the vet today he is "on the brink of" GI stasis. But he's eating and pooping tonight so yay! I'm hoping he'll pull through. He's a strong bunny, I think he'll be okay.

Aww, A hotot is a dream bunny of mine! I already have 4 rabbits and 2 fosters though lol! Welcome to the bunny community!

@forestunseen, I hope your bunny is doing better now. Health scares are awful.

I own two one year old continental, flemish giant rabbit breed (Their birthday was yesterday) One of them is Henry and he is brown and he is a big fluffy angel. The other one, Pippy/Pip/Philip is a little bit more trouble. He is constantly chewing cardboard that we (Me and my family) put up in front of the bottoms of the bookshelves, and doing other trouble stuff. But, In the end they are both equally amazing and cute. Anyway, that's everything about my rabbits I going to share. : )

Mhhh, tasteless cardboard, yum! My Philipp (called Flip) loves it as well, maybe it's the name after all.
