My bunnys pen

[Misty the bunny 12]

It is a 4x4 pen. What do I need to fix should I make it bigger. She lives in a garage now. She is a 2 year old agora bunny . I am getting a bigger litter box on the 6-8

Hi, you have done really well! You could make her a digging box? My rabbit enjoyed it when I hid some treats amongst some hay and toilet rolls.

I agree that a digging box would definitely be nice!

Also, if you have the space and money, it'd be awesome to get a second rabbit to bond with her as rabbits are social animals and do best with others, and this will help keep them entertained as well

I accidentally made two

So I actually put the pen against the wall so it is bigger. I want to get a nother bunny for her but she is not spayed yet and my parents are still discussing.is this better

So I will make a digging box is this any better

 

[SavannaJones1997]

In my experience more space is always better! Yes I agree! Bunnies are very social. I used to have three rabbits and they absolutely loved each other's company. Sadly two have passed and I only have one rabbit left. I noticed you have a little rabbit plush toy. Just wondering how your rabbit has responded to it. I was thinking of buying my rabbit one as I'm not sure how easy it would be to bond her with a new rabbit as she is now 5 years old.

so i notice she will lick or groom it but i don't think it is possible for them to bond because its just a toy but i don't know that much

OK thank you! I may have to do some research.

I was going to come on here and suggest using a wall to make the space bigger, but you already figured that out! You can make it even larger if you can secure the ends. Here is a photo of a pen creating a large space by making use of one wall. [It could be even large in a corner (using 2 walls).]


Having a dig box is a fine idea and many rabbits enjoy them. Some, however, don't seem to care one wit for a dig box. Just depends on the rabbit.

I'm not sure how easy it would be to bond her with a new rabbit as she is now 5 years old.

She's not too old to bond. Rabbit rescues routinely bond rabbits of that age and older. The personalities of the rabbits is the major factor in whether 2 rabbits will bond (aside from being fixed).

I might try the corner way if I get a other bunny. I am getting her fixed soon hopefully.

You could have just left it. It is usual for a rabbit to drop poos over a new area to claim it as theirs. That behavior will dissipate in time. (If she isn't spayed, that could make it more excessive.) But bear in mind with any new changes or increases in space you should expect to see an increase in territorial poos as they get used to the new space. It will die down if you don't quickly sweep them all up.

She is not spayed. I am going to get two more pannals. But I don't have a lot of space for. The pen to be like that I have a cabinet that I have her things in and the only way to get to it was to go in her own but if I get more space I will try it again. I like haveing a door to open up is there any to get something like that wile using the wall.

My dad said he doesn't need anything from it so I will try it when I cleen her pen or Tuesday
