Behaviour, Enrichment & Play

Rabbits need exercise everyday. This can be as easy as setting up a playpen inside your home, in your garden or letting your bunny freely roam. You can make this super fun for your bunny by providing places for them to jump, hide and play. There are lots of toys and tunnels for sale online/in stores but you can also create things yourself e.g. sticks from outside, plant pots, houses and tunnels made of cardboard.

Bunnies are playful creatures and often enjoy attention. Just like humans and other pets, some bunnies can be shy, confident, cheeky or naughty, they all have unique characters and it’s up to you to bond with your bunny and form a friendship so that you can both enjoy each other’s company.

Good breeders will be able to offer you information about a bunny’s behaviour. The way they act in a pet shop will not be a true representation of a bunny’s character given the environment they are in. You / your family might actually prefer a cuddly bunny who wants to sit for fuss instead of an energetic bun who likes a lot of activity and enrichment. We try our best to understand what our baby bunnies like/dislike and get to know their little characters so that their prospective owners have a realistic expectation when they adopt them.
