I own a little buck named Toste, I’ve been working with him getting used with being picked up, pet on the stomach and back which would before trigger him to attack and growl. After two months I have a calm bun which I can pick up and do the purring noise which rabbits do when comfortable, when he’s picked up. And he also stopped attacking in the cage. So I no longer get new bruises and wounds.
He’s still jumpy and full of energy, he’s no longer as scared before among humans but everyone must be careful handling him. If I’m not around.
I wonder how I can get him be better used with other humans more, because I want the other in my family to be able to take care of him without being scared of him. I’ve just started with introducing him to my brother and let my brother cuddle with him. But no one in my family can pick him up.
He was first a small child’s pet before he moved home to me, so he distrust humans. So I really need tips on how to help him get less scared around humans and kids. Because I’m out of ideas right now and he have come far during these two months.
