My rabbit has plenty of things to chew on:
– willow balls
– hay balls
– a willow tunnel
– a wooden throw toy
– plenty of card board
– a wooden hay wagon
He rarely, if ever, chews on any of these things! However, he does LOVE to chew on baseboard, chairs, and the books on the bottom of my shelf and the shelf itself! It is easy to just shoo him away so this behavior doesn’t bother me but I am worried about his teeth!
– Why would he only want to chew on the things that he shouldn’t chew on?
– What kinds of toys should I get him to chew on? Maybe I am just getting the wrong things?
– How much do rabbits actually chew on things besides hay?
I want to make sure his teeth stay healthy and it is obvious that he likes to chew stuff so I don’t understand why he wouldn’t want the toys he has.
When we were at the vet about a month ago his teeth looked healthy so I think that his teeth are fine but he is young so I worry about the future.
