Ha, you are lucky your bunny was good during the whole vet trip. When Fern went to the vet she was good when the vet was examining her, but the vet took a long time when they were trying to draw blood, and someone had to come back to tell us that everything was OK, she was just being uncooperative. Haha! Fern! and when she was done with it she gave me the bunny butt for a while.

Yea I just give Fern a stuffed toy outside the cage, she does not really care about it and pays not much attention to it.

Yea I know what you mean about your bunny just pays no mind to some toys, Fern does that too. She only really likes cardboard boxes and things she can shred or dig. I guess Fern is a digger. She received the phone book very well, Except she had black feet after a couple of days playing with it. Yea, Fern seems to like the texture of some things to chew, but not others. It makes me sad if I make/buy a cool toy and Fern totally ignores it. She does love pine cones! I was happy about that, you just get them from the yard, wash them cook them and voila, a cheap and cool toy. I guess you have to find what toys she likes and stick with those.

I can’t wait to see if Fern likes the willow stuff from Binky Bunny, Christmas is coming and she will be a lucky girl! I have the stuff I bought saved for her for Christmas.

Yep she sounds liek a normal bun except for the vet part.  Great going bun bun and mum too

yay Sammy! gosh she’s cute… she looks kinda “english-spotty” in that pic…

mine love the willow stuff (LOVE IT!) unpeeled gets the highest marks. did you say in another thread that the tunnel is peeled willow (the whiter willow)? that might be partly why, it has a different texture or taste. i got the unpeeled tent here and it sat virtually unchewed for a couple months. they slept under it all the time but no chewing. then all of a sudden i think they realized it’s the same stuff that their toys are made of and now it’s mere twigs… i need a new one in january… with some buns, i think it takes them time to accept a toy. plus she is young… so maybe she’ll get into the habit soon enough… BB has the willow stars and candy canes… at 2 bucks a pop, i can never get enough of those… those little willow rings are awesome too!

Your vet sounds great! So nice that it wasn’t all too stressful for Sammy. She’s a champ! She’s reminding me of Jersey quite a bit. She was also 3 pounds for sometime and eventual matured to the 5 lb mark. She also never really took to toys. She preferred to nominate her own items to keep her occupied. Leather, bag straps, books etc. Sammy may use the toys more when enclosed for longish periods but if she’s mostly out, theres too much to explore then sit in a spot and play with toys. At least that’s the way it is for Jersey.

Awww she sounds so sweet-behaving so nicely at the vets And your vet sounds really great too! Chuck gets his stuffed animals all the time and he doesn’t chew them; You could try giving her a stuffed animal in the cage and if she doesn’t chew it up too much then she can keep it in there.
