My old girl's fave toy was a large purple beatle toy car of DS1's! Know the ones that are about the size of a large bunny and all plastic?

She also loved a cardboard tube (loo roll tube) stuffed with Hay and some treats. A box (or one of the balls you can buy) with holes in it and it spills treats (or food) as they push it around. Playing fetch with an apple, tug of war with a dog rope toy (she had some canine issues).

For your nethies you can buy large white pipes from B&Q and the connections for them (the size you use for your toilet pipe) to make mazes and simulate burrows.

I have a Mini Lop who is about 8 Months old (male.)

He is a house rabbit for the time being but will have him in a run in the garden when the weather perks up a bit!

Now he does chew(as all rabbits do) and nip occasionally. Hes taken to running round our feet in circles when were stood up, and making a grunting noise. Obvs something to do with mating.

I was wondering will the snip benifit him or not?

Regards

Lucy

Yes it is worth getting it done, haven't got time to write all the reasons but useful link below, and please make sure your vet is a rabbit savvy one.

yes, get him done - it is mental torture for them if they have all those hormones running around them by no way of releasing them, he will become aggressive too - and will try to shag anything in sight - believe me, my rabbit mounted a brick just before i had him done!. in fact, there is no reason not to get him done really.

I thought as much. Thanks For Your Help

Any ideas how to find a "rabbit savvy" vet in my area?

We would recommend castrating a rabbit as a routine op from 3 1/2 months onwards.
