Awe  poor little bunny.  She must be so relieved not to hear those dogs day n and day out. 

Is there a way to get a ramp for her to get down easier.  Some bunnies just don’t have a lot of confidence with jumping up or down. Seems like a ramp would help hopefully.

Thanks for adopting! Had she had a vet check at the pound? You may want to get her eye sight checked out. Rabbits do have a challenge with depth perception because of the way their eyes work. They don’t see directly in front of their nose but can see all the rest of the way round. I think also, the vision from each eye overlaps somehow (??) Anyway, you’ll often see them up on a level peering down continously until they get a feel for the depth and then they’ll jump. Pansy may still be adjusting but do keep in mind possible vision problems. Do you use ramps or does she just jump up to levels?

Well Ruby has a ramp in her giant cage. I mean a shelf.  She is not a good jumper.  Hubby had found a little ladder with a small space between rungs.  I am glad I kept it. 

I put it in Ruby’s house today attaching it to the shelf.  Then I put her on it and she climbed up to the shelf.

I checked on her a little later and she got down. She is very noisy when she jumps down I don’t know it she used the ladder cause I haven’t heard her thump as she got down. I hope she did.

It is like a little bird ladder but it doens’t have the hooks on it.  Maybe try something like that without the hooks. Or a ramp and attach carpet to it.

You know I wish we could order things like that.  Either one comes with the cage when you buy it or you dont’ get anything like that with the cage. And there is no other way to buy one you got to make one.

What is allowing her to get from level to level?  ramps? and open jump area?

You  mean Ruby ?  she could jump to the shelf but is too scared  I put it as low as it would go which is like 8 inches from the bottom  of the cage. She prefers to hide under it I think   for I haven’t seen her up there again.  

Yeah I am going to take the ladder out.  Ruby hasn’t used it and I would like her to have more room in there. So I can put her a toy to occupy herself with.  Hope u find somethign that works.

That might work as well (making it wider) we made ramps out of metal shelving material, and then carpeted them. Once the buns got real used to the ramps we just took them out and they preferred it that way. But off the bat, i don’t think they would have hopped the levels, they needed the ramps at first for sure.

Congrats on adopting and welcome here!
