General Bismarck has been with us for a little over three weeks and as neutered yesterday. He's been an absolute joy and I've had a wonderful time making sure he's happy and engaged throughout the day. But I'm feeling awful that the vet requested he get 7 days of cage time since the rooms in our apartments provide too much activity for him.
I feel so bad leaving him there during the week. He's been sitting in his poo box with a grumpy face all morning, and it's only day one! He was happily drugged and blitzed out of his mind last night, so that was not too bad.
He's not a chewer so giving him something new to rip up now and then won't cut it. He like knocking down his blocks, and I have been stuffing papertowel rolls with hay and goodies for him. But there he sits on his "man-throne" out of...boredom?
I have some lovely friends who are rabbit owners as well who's vet didn't request cage time after spaying. Maybe it's different with boys? Or perhaps because he's a climber.
Would any of you be able to talk about the healing of your bunny neuters? Any ideas on how to keep him occupied? Any ideas on how I can stop feeling like the bad guy?
He's also developed a love of licking all the blankets in the house over the last week. He really loves fleece. XD
