Last night, I let Ozzy out for his run time. Everything was going fine- he was zooming around the living room, hanging out under and on top of the futon. Well, at some point, the boyfriend changed the channel and left the remote facing up on the futon... and Ozzy chewed off one of the buttons. The boyfriend, probably needless to say, was very unhappy. It's not exactly due to the button, but because over the last six years, we've gone through so many chewed cords, blankets that have been chewed to shreds, remote control buttons, carpets, etc. I'm sure you all get the idea because you've probably been there before. Anyway, I explained to him that they're rabbits, and really just don't know better, and that we should be the ones being careful not to leave things lying around that would entice them to chew. Of course, that didn't calm him down in the slightest. I ended up putting Ozzy back in his cage, so it would seem like he was being "punished"... I snuck him some treats though :whistling
I let the bf cool down a bit before talking to him about it, and he wondered whether there is anything that we can do to train them to not chew on things. So, I guess I'm asking if anyone's had success in training their buns not to chew on certain things, like cords, remotes, and the walls?
