"hi my name is ceri and 5 weeks ago myself and my husband bought arabbit from a pet sanctuary. Chubbs is about 1 years old and in goodhealth we have managed to litter train him but now we desperately needhelp on how to tame him, he doesn't bite but he doesn't like to besmoothed or picked up either. I know I'm holding him correctly but hejust doesn't like it. He is a house rabbit of which he is in a largecage during the day and then comes out in the living room in thevenings however he has ripped all my wall paper off the walls andstill doesn't want to know us, it's a Case of "go away I'm free" Idecided to try to put in a large run the length of my living room so hehad lots of space but he seemed to be stressed and wanting to get outthen when i tried to help him and pick him up he runs away. It's reallyhard as i feel he's not happy. Sorry this is such a long email butplease help I've read most rabbit books but none of them help????????"
