  • Rabbit Enrichment Ideas
    Firstly sorry about Bigwig's coat looking so messy hehe! I did try to brush him before filming but he just starts growling and gets upset... because he is sassy like that haha :)
    Everything (including the bedding) just seems to get stuck in his fur! I am still working on taming - as you can see Piper is much more confident and I am able to keep her fur in good condition, but I will be spending much more time with Bigwig now so he will trust me better.
    Hope you enjoyed the video and got some ideas too!

    Stuff like this can really enhance a rabbits life. I've had rabbits all my life and after a while you get to learn what makes them tick. I have a rabbit that celebrated his 14th birthday last month :D x

    Thank you for this video :) One of our rabbits sadly died on Friday evening from a fox that had broken into the run. My rabbit, Misty had obviously been grabbed by it by but had managed to escape and hid underneath our guinea pigs hutch. She was in shock, but is doing better now. This video really helps us now to help her get much better after losing her mate. They were both girls so may struggle to find her a partner in the future. She is going to remain a house bunny now we think to give her all the companionship and interaction that she is now missing from her playmate :( She's only 3 months and a half old at the moment so thankfully her recovery may be quick :)

    • @sahanak5041
      @sahanak5041 8 років тому

      +xXAnimal_ LoverXx I think that's fine, but I personally would go a litter bigger. The average housing requirement for a Guinea pig is a 4sqft, so right now you have 10 sqft for 4 piggies. That's ok because they are all bonded, but if I were you, maybe try for a 2 by 6, or even better a 2 by 9, because in my opinion every piggy needs Atleast 6 sqft. Also, if you don't want to buy more grids, just rearrange the ones you have to a 3 by 4 and then you have enough space, also, more space is better so maybe you could try to have the cage up against a wall so then you won't need to waste grids were the wall is so you can expand your cage
      Hope that helps
