What r some2007-11-24 22:17:18

what r some fun excersises/ games to do with a 1 year old female Netherland Dwarf rabbit? we let he run at least 1 every other day in the living room. every day i put a blanket in the kitchen and let her rome it for about 15 minutes (shes afraid of the tile) what more can i do? she enjoys running and it makes her less irritable... but i want to do more with her 2 bond more. if she is more active she doesnt bite as much when u try to hold her--- in fact she doesnt bite unless u put ur finger in her mouth!

No, do not use a running ball with rabbits! They can be painful on their backs and they're meant for walking in, not hopping. It would simply make it difficult and uncomfortable for the rabbit to move.

My rabbits like to check out what I'm doing when they're out. Once they've had their fill of dashing around like loonies they start following me around, poking their noses into whatever I'm doing. Folding clothes, reading the newspaper, cleaning up the room. I guess they think that if I'm more interested in that than them, it has to be neat.

Another thing I do is I put out cardboard boxes for my rabbits to play in. I keep the box closed and cut two rabbit-sized holes in them. Paper bags are fun too. Sometimes I put newspaper and hay inside. They love running through them, digging in them, and tearing them apart. I've also made mazes and castles out of boxes. The rabbits love them... to death actually, but that's the point. After they destroy their boxes I get to make more. :)
