Hello everyone. I just got a mini rex rabbit whom I named Thumper. He is pretty well trained, since we got him from someone else. I have a few questions about rabbits. Is there any way to get them to stop scratching when they're being picked up? I know he is scared, but is there any way to calm him down a little bit? He is really friendly, so he only scratches. Also, what is the best type of litter for his litter box? When we got him he had these greyish pellet like litter in his litter box, but we don't know what it is called. And one last question, would putting blankets in his cage for comfort be bad in any way? He has a metal cage like bottom, which looks pretty uncomfy for a rabbit.
Thank you everyone
