Hi Angie!

As our friends above have said, bunnies dig and chew for different reasons. It can be because she wants out of her cage (5 hours is probably not enough) but also because it gives her joy. My bunny digs in the floor linoleum right before he lays down.

It would be good if you could give her some toys to dig and chew. As said above, a digging box, old newspaper or books, etc. There are plenty of Youtube videos with cheap/free ideas for toys. Even a cardboard box can provide days of fun.
