Advice please, bun has started growling :(

You are doing such a great job with her and i am saddened but not suprised that the other bun didn't survive her previous living conditions . Thank god she is with you now. X

You've done so well with her, and she will be a bit fragile and confused. I'm glad she's stopped growling. re; Carpet, if the 'No' works, that's great. I also have willow sticks handy, or something chewy, and I give Stewie that to chew when he starts on the carpet. I also give him a pellet when he plays with his chewy toys, to reward him, it's a slow process, but he's starting to figure that chewing carpet gets a reprimand, and chewing sticks etc gets a treat, and it's working

She's a beautiful bunny isn't she! And so inquisistive. I would say that it can be a bit much for some rabbits to have lots of room when they aren't used to much. As prey animals, they need lots of hidey holes, and a feeling of safety. Perhaps you could give her a corner of the room, (a pen?) with a tray and toys, and give her her own space, then over a couple of weeks, increase it. It can be overwhelming, and buns are scanning all the time for danger, so a more secluded personal space may help her relax a bit. I did it with my last bun who was a terrified abused rescue bunny, but didn't with my present one, who is just very confident.

Thanks

She normally lives in a cage/pen combination in the kitchen (kitchen door is from the living room ,just next to her blanket which you see on the floor in the video), and that is left open all the time while my oh is in, when he brought her into the living room the pen was left open so she could go back in whenever she wanted. She has a cardboard box hide, a tent and a tunnel. I'm not sure if she is using the tent and tunnel yet but next time she's in the living room I'll suggest to him to bring them in so she can hide there if she wants

Oh, and just to add as my oh told me today, the vet said her urine scald has cleared up

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!

Go Temperance!

She is embarking on a very happy life with you. Sounds a bit like OH has fallen for her too!
