  It just started storming and Waffles is pretty scared since it’s his first big thunderstorm. I’ve been feeding him treats, playing relaxing bunny music, and he has all his toys, but I can’t keep feeding him treats; Does anyone know good ways of distracting bunnies?

  Does he have anywhere cosy to hide and feel safe?
  
  You could try increasing the volume of your own music in the hopes that it’ll drown out the thunder. Also try to play music (can be slightly louder than usual as long as it’s not deafening) around your bunny even at normal times when you play with him etc, so he gets used to (louder) sounds in general. I’m not sure about how long Waffles will take to get used to the storm, but some bunnies do eventually figure out it’s not a threat and continue doing their own thing.
