I am a fairly new bunny owner. two months ago my mom got a bunny from a friend, and we weren’t at all prepared for the responsibility. Since that time, we’ve gotten another bunny (so the first wont be lonely) and made them a larger indoor and outdoor cage. To take them outside, we have to hold them, which they don’t fancy all that much. I despise both there indoor and outdoor cage, but i can’t do anything about it, expect try and make the best of it. We have three dogs, two of which are aggressive towards little animals, so we can’t let them roam around the house.

I’m mostly worried about my bunnies getting bored, I try and make toys out of paper-towel tubes, and boxes, but i’m worried that its not enough.. My mom doesn’t want to spend any money on them, so it’s a pain to try and get her to buy a toy from the store. Once she does, she goes for the most pathetic one, that the bunnies take no interest in. I want to get them little hidey-holes and such, but they are apparently to expensive. 

We also need to find a good flooring for bunnies, I read somewhere that if the floor is to slippery, it could lead to back damage, and I don’t really want that. For a while we had some of those foam play-mats as a floor, but we didn’t have a litter-box at the time so the bunnies peed on it, so we threw it out. Now that they have a litter-box, I’m not sure if its worth trying the play-mat stuff again. They are very good at using it, and almost never have an accident elsewhere, or if we should just try and find an entirely different floor.

Now, as mentioned earlier we have two bunnies, both girls. They bonded quickly, and I’m pretty sure they’re friends now. The problem is, is that I’m not bonded with them. I have a ton of school, siblings, and other pets that I have to deal with, and it’s so hard to find the time to hang out with my bunny pals. I’m a night-owl, and I could  sit with them for a hour at night, but I’m not sure if they’re as active as night. The first month I had them as well, I didn’t know they didn’t like to be held. I would pick them up and show them to my friends and such. I feel dumb for my mistake, and I think they are a little bit scared of me now. I need them to be more comfortable with me.

I’m not sure how much of this makes sense. As I write this, I am really tired, and not in the mood to read over anything. I apologize in advance if this was a confusing read.
