How much is “a lot” of cat food? I’ve heard stories of rabbits having a nibble with no ill effects. I’m curious about the paper towels. Those can’t be good to ingest.
So she’s 7 months, which also means her body is going to be changing. Is she spayed? I’ve heard of bunnies having changes in tastes when they start maturing. No liking things they used to like and liking things they used to not like. How much is she getting pellet-wise? That is another idea because at this age you can start weaning them off of unlimited pellets. If she’s eating a lot of pellets, she could just be feeling full.
She would take 3 mouths chews before shes caught. The cat food is not in the same room as her now.
Shes not sprayed yet, Im planning on geting her sprayed at the end of June after the spray and neuter place emails me back answering my questions x-x I really need to get her sprayed casue she keeps harassing my poor cat XD
In pellet-wise, shes getting a half of cup, but she hardly touches it

That lack of water thing does concern me, though. One of my buns refused to drink out of the bottle, but loved the dish. Another preferred the bottle for a while. Perhaps you could try different containers/bottles? When I first had Linus and Luna together officially, when they moved in to the same cage after bonding, I had two different water bottles in there. Linus would not even go near one of them, but Luna would drink out of both. I’m telling you, rabbits are the most OCD, picky creatures sometimes! They’re so smart and particular with certain things.
However, if your bun hasn’t been to the vet before or recently, I’d definitely say to go for a good rabbit savvy vet check-up! My bun Louie showed zero signs of being ill, but when I took him to get fixed he had a severe ear infection! Stubborn dude didn’t want to show any pain. Typical man, trying to be macho.
She has been to a check up around 3 months ago and everything was fine.
She finally drinked a little water after i put some mango in it x-x I ended up putting a bowl of water in the cage along with the cage water attacher.. Hopefully she will drink more

Beautiful rabbit.
I did want to make mention of the cage being way too small for such a big rabbit – are you going to change that to a larger enclosure like an exercise pen?
Thank you ^^
And yeah :\ Its hard to find a big enough cage for her.. Shes only in there for about 12ish hours(~~12am-4pm), then shes let out into the house until 11pmish..

Very cute bun! How much does she weigh? It’s hard to tell her size from your picture. What quantities is she getting of her food?
I agree with Sarita that she is going to need a much larger enclosure. You can still incorporate her store-bought cage, maybe make it a large litter/hay box, but attach an xpen.
In your first picture, she is in an xpen, is she always allowed to roam in that space?
Thank you <3 The last time i checked she was ~3 pounds and a quater.. But that was 3 months ago.. So if i had to guess i would say 5 pounds.
And she mostly get Kale.. and sometimes brussel sprout leaves and Cilantro
I’ve tried her on: Parsley, Bok Choy, and mint but she wasnt too find of them..
She still doesnt like me to pick her up ;-;
The last time i attached an xpen to her first cage(It had a flat top) she jumped over the cage.. XD
I should probably try it again since the top of the cage isnt flat and she cant get away ~
