- Hi. I'm the proud owner of a mini lop
- named Boutros Boutros-Bunny. I've never
- owned a bunny, I've never known anyone
- who owned a bunny and I'm completely
- ignorant about all matters bunny. HELP!
- I've read a couple books, neither we're
- overly helpful. I love Boutros dearly and
- we're getting to be very good friends but
- I'm terrified I'm going to do something
- wrong and he'll suffer terribly and die.
- (Well, I'm not quite that paranoid, but
- I do want to make sure he's well cared
- for.)
-
- He's pretty well litter trained but he does
- leave scat on one particular blanket. I catch
- him everytime and put him in his litter box
- but it hasn't stopped. Any ideas?
-
- Is there any way to play _with_ bunnies?
- He loves to scamper but doesn't get the concept
- of playing with me.
-
- He's starting to chew now. Will he chew
- everything? Are there any toys I can
- give him that will help?
-
- He has some sleep around his eyes. Is this
- normal? His eyes are otherwise clear and
- he's lively. Also, his shoulder blades are
- pronounced. He has a good little belly but
- seems skinny otherwise.
-
- Any anecdotes, advice, warnings would be
- appreciated.
-
- Thanks!
