My bun recently got over a bout of stasis/blockage and had to be syringe fed & medicated 3-6 x a day. (Went to vet for teeth trimming since he wasn't eating hay and found 'mass' instead)
He typically has run of a 9x12 room all to himself complete with his cage, a hutch holding the bun supplies and 4 cardboard boxes he likes to run around and hide in. During his ordeal we had him stay in his cage and a puppy play pen over roughly half the room.
Previously a persnickety bun that didn't really care for us but has become very friendly and for the first time since having him-binkying!(OH saw as I was working, so jealous!)
My question is- should I allow him to still have the cardboard houses? He spent A LOT of time in them and I think that may have been part of the reason he stopped eating but I can't be sure.
Also- we plan on getting him a friend and as I have heard they are supposed to be in view of one another could I just section off half the room and have him in the one he's in now and let the other bun have the other half when we get it?
