As long as he seems happy try not to worry tomuch. Although my bunnies love their toys the thing they love the mostis running around. I'm sure he enjoys having an entire room to himself.You could always try feeding balls, where they knock them around andtheir food comes out. I always find food motivates them to play!

Our buns like baby key rings, especially if we hang them from something. We also give them the linkng baby rings.
Smore and MooShu like their little balls with the bells in them.
Rosie and Binkie love to play with their blankies. Binkie likes to get it over her head and then round around.
Some of our's will play with a plastic wiffle ball. The kind with the holes in it so they can toss it around.
Try stuffing the toilet paper tubes with hay. A little messy, but they have a good time and a snack as well.
Empty kleenex boxes and beer cartons always go over big in our house. There's always and empty Corona carton in the family room.

If you are getting a new bunny it'd be a good idea to
take it slowly , one step at a time if you are going to try and getyour new bunny to become friends with the bun you already have, ittakes time, bunnies aren't like most other animals that just seem toget along when they met another of the same species as they are, it's agradual process, you can't just put them in together and think theywill play together, not to mention that if they are of the opposite sexwhat could happen.(ummm lotsa little bunnies lol)
So reading on bonding would be a great idea.
Goodluck and let us know how you go.
