        Hello,

        I am currently fostering a young male rabbit and He licks everything. He licks cardboard boxes, blankets, pillows, me pretty much anything. I’m not 100% sure but I think this is because he was recently separated from some of his sisters (who he groomed alot)because we found out he was male.
        This makes me think that he is lonely or sad is there anything I can do to make him happier I have a sister right next to him but it doesn’t seem to have helped.

        Thanks for any help

          Some bunnies are just more licky than others! It’s good that his sister is still near him, they will probably get comfort from being able to see and smell each other. Make sure that there is a gap between the cages though, as rabbits can still bite and mate through bars.

          You could try giving him a teddy to cuddle with. You can also try to spend extra time with him
