Playing & Toys

Written By clark brace

Your bunny will probably enjoy playing with the cardboard box, paper bag, or paper box-filler at least as much (if not more) than the expensive toy inside.

RABBITS OUTSIDE:
It is a joy to watch your bunny play outside but…..
Do not let your rabbit play on grass that has been fertilized or had a weed killer put on it. Always supervise your rabbit while it is outside, it takes just a few seconds for a dog to kill or frighten your rabbit to death. Never leave your rabbit outside after dark. Predators are raccoons, stray dogs, cats, possums, owls and coyotes. Even in the city, these predators exist. Even in a secure hutch, a rabbit can be frightened to death by a predator attempting to get in.

Bunnies will play with anything!

Note: Do NOT give your bunnies potato chips, or bags made out of plastic or metal that they can eat.
