Okay, that’s good to hear. He is eating hay, but he’s not willing to work for it, so I put it right next to him so he doesn’t have to reach for the hay rack. He did ate a little bit of pellets but he’s eating a lot of veggies. He’s not drinking as much water as he should though because his poop is really hard and small so he’s kind of dehydrated. He ran out of his cage today into the play pen and he’s not jumping around as much, but he looked like he really wanted to stretch, so I let him roam around for like 5mins and put him back in his cage. Moving still looks kind of difficult for him, so I think I’m going to leave him in his cage for another day, just to be on the safe side. I’m just super glad that he’s doing okay.
I’m happy to hear about the fleece blanket because it was recommended for rabbits, but he was just ingesting it, so I was kind of shocked, but it’s been months and he seemed okay and once the hole gets to a certain size, he just stops. I’ll be changing his fleece blanket again (I do it every 2 months) and this time, I’ll make sure that he won’t chew on it.
@JackRabbit, the flooring for the top level is also wire and the hard thing is, he does not permits anyone to hold him because we aren’t bonded yet or he’s just super skittish, so there’s no way that I can hold him up to check his paws to see if he has sore hocks or not, but I will be taking him to get his nails trimmed because when he’s in an unknown environment, he’s not skittish at all, so I’ll be able to check then. Like I said, he’s not litter trained so I can’t cover the bottom of the cage yet, but I will once he is litter trained (reliably). About the top floor, I tried foam mat, putting a bed there, newspaper, towels, pedicure tiles, and a wood tile, and those are just bad news to him. He will refuse to go to the top floor, until I take those things out, or he’ll just try to pull it down and I don’t want him to hurt himself. The top layer is really small, usually he just lays there and at night, he would jump up there and sleep or take a nap. Other than that, he doesn’t jump up and down on it and he doesn’t walk around on it (because it’s way too small) so I don’t think that should be a problem. I will definitely cover up the bottom though and the majority of the time, he is outside of his cage running around his play pen, so the only time you will ever see him on the top floor is from 12-2pm (nap time), 6-7pm (rest time), and 11pm-8am (nighty night time). He will never go on the top floor unless he’s going to sleep and it’s not like he sits on his feet or anything like that, he just lays flat on his side and sleep, so he’s not on his feet. Thank you for the suggestion though, Teddy is just a really spoiled and picky rabbit…
