Reddit reviews Wood Bridge for Small Animal Cage or Habitat - Guinea Pigs, Ferrets, Chinchillas, Hedgehog, Dwarf Rabbits and Other Small Animals

Oh well if the cage is open then my apologies!

​

I wonder does he have any trouble hopping out on his own? Perhaps you could set up a small ramp or bridge to make it easier for him. Something like this.

​

The other thing that I bet prevents him from exploring more is the wood floors (which I myself have). Bunnies often don't like wood floors as they are slippery and feel unsafe.. that alone is enough to make the bun be very reluctant to explore and happened to my GF who could not figure out the issue.

Consider adding a blanket or area run in a couple places in your home for him to be able to do her fast zoomies and play. I highly recommend this indoor/outdoor rug - it is easy to clean, inexpensive, and due to a tight weave hard to chew. It fantastic and a lot of bunny parents use it.

Start by even a blanket outside his cage and see if he spend more time outside on it, that should be telling.

​

One more thing is to add a few hidy houses around your home for him, like even a cardboard box... Bunnies love to be in a place they feel safe in and adding a hidy house provides that feeling of safety and ability to retreat if needed.

​

Another thing is just to provide some toys for him to play with and entertain himself and want to explore. I can share some below.

I recently discovered this awesome thing and test it already ... yup, still awesome https://www.chewy.com/living-world-teach-n-treat-small/dp/131458

More suggestions below:

1. Bunnies like exporting type toys - tunnels, cardboard houses, willow and hay balls, chews, and treat puzzles . The two thread below have examples:
   
   
   1. https://www.reddit.com/r/Rabbits/comments/an8cut/rabbit_room_ideas/
      
   2. https://www.reddit.com/r/Rabbits/comments/ajf2vl/how_to_enrich_my_rabbits_life/
      
2. Also a couple suggestions below that are my personal favorites and all buns tend to enjoy:
   
   
   1. Treat/pellets ball - feed pellets in it vs a bowl
      
   2. Nesting cups - hide little treat bits between stacked cups, I have not met a bun who doesn't love these
      
   3. Plastic slinky - most buns love these
      
   4. Baby plastic keys
      
   5. Play house
      
   6. Dig box
      
3. Also try homemade things - the best I found was an empty egg carton stuffed wit favorite greens for him to figure out how to open. :)
   
   
   1. Or something like this https://www.reddit.com/r/Rabbits/comments/be338f/diy_pellet_dispenser/
      
   2. Or a homemade castle like this person did https://www.reddit.com/r/Rabbits/comments/bcl9p4/cardboard_castle/ - she has instructions on how to make one, send her a message.
      
4. Chew toys specifically
   
   
   1. Willow and hay balls are great - good quality ones here https://shop.smallpetselect.com/collections/natural-toys-and-chews-for-rabbits
      
   2. They also have these logs where you can hide treats and pellets for fun - the bun would love to chew those I think and they last too. :)
      
   3. Great quality toys that are super fragrant and yummy to chew here https://www.farmerdavepetsupply.com/toys
      
   4. And thicker good chew sticks here https://www.farmerdavepetsupply.com/chew-sticks
