Tiberius is usually such a good boy. I've had him for two and half months now and it hasn't been until recently that's he's decided to be a bastard about cords. Before this week he ignored anything I didn't give him as a toy now I swear he's being bad just to get a rise out of me.
I spend a lot of time with my rabbit anyway and he's loose most of the day in my room. But recently he decided to try and chew my computer cord so I disciplined him and expected him to stop like he usually does, instead he persisted. So I dominated him then put him in his kennel to cool off and then he was fine to play.
Now he's trying to chew on every cord and I go to correct him and he gets excited and runs over to me like he's happy even though he knows he's going to be punished. Today he was following me around my room and I dropped something under my desk, I leaned over to pick it up and he ran under my desk next to me and chomped right through my new alarm clock cord, then ran over and was begging to be picked up.
Is it just me or is my rabbit a frikkin' weirdo that's doing these things on purpose just to get me to respond and how to I get him to stop? He's not exactly starving for attention, he has me all day long to play with since I'm an artist so I work out of the home and he's got the cats to play with to. He can go into his house for quiet time whenever he wants to. How do I get him to stop this behavior? I swear, if he had hands he'd be sticking forks in the outlets!
