Minus the new to owning rabbits...=) I have had 4 in the past and now have two of the cutest babies in the world...=)
So, I have these rabbits right, Athena and Odysseus. Odysseus is the sweetest rabbit you could ever find...But Athena is just a little pill. The main problem with her that I'm having is that she's chewing on EVERYTHING! Everything, but her toys (and I've spent a lot of mmoney on those darn toys), including wires, paper, baskets, towels, the carpet...pretty much anything she can get her mouth on.
So, how do you stop a rabbit from chewing the wrong stuff and start chewing the right stuff? If I'm not at school during the day, they're allowed free range in my room with their cage doors open...=) If I am at school, then whenever I get home, I open the cage doors and let them out. I've tried timeouts, treats when she chews on the right stuff, have pretty much bunnyproofed everything, buying different toys, getting different rugs instead of carpets, etc. So if anyone has any ideas, I'm open to suggestions.
