They are confined to the living room (lounge if yer posh). They have their sleeping quarters in there. They only come out when we are in there just in case they get into more mischief than they should. We have made sure that there are no electric cables for them to chew. They do occaisionally go into the hall , but they are not allowed in the kitchen.  They are litter trained . They arent much trouble really, just that they have to be fed the proper food to keep them healthy. They make really nice pets but not for small children ( thats my opinion)

Nah. I like rabbits to be rabbits. They run around together and bink( jump up into the air sideways) all round the room together. They do come to us and nudge us for a titbit. I don't ever pick them up. When you think about it the only time they get picked up in the wild is when summats gonna eat them They have very weak backs so you can hurt them very easily if you dont pick them up properly. I'm just happy for their company. Tony got them for me 2 years ago when I was very poorly to take my mind off myself. They did the trick so I owe them.

Aw cute!

How do you litter train a rabbit?

They are very intelligent. You just put a tray down with some wood based pellets in and some shredded newspaper (same as they have in their corner tarys and they just go in it

That simple?!  I'm amazed I thought it would take a bit more effort and a few days.  What clever Buns  ;D
