Jerry-Bun
Danielle
So... I got Jerry last tuesday, April 1st, and I love him so much already. My idea is to let him be a 'house bunny' whenever I'm home and around to supervise, but when I'm at work or sleeping he's either going to be a) in his cage or b) in a rabbit proofed room (that won't be for a little while from now) My point is I am slowly giving him more and more space so that he gets used to things, but also so that he is littertrained and I can't give him too much space at once.
But, what I've been doing is picking him up while I'm watching TV, and letting him hop around on the couch, but where does he want to hop around? on the back of the couch, and that's fine with me.. he actually usually takes a nap up there for a bit.
Question; How long can I leave him up there napping before I have to worry about his litterbox (i don't want him going the bathroom on my couch) and how long can he be away from his hay as well?
Whenever he seems to be uncomfortable or moving around a lot I end up putting him back in his cage and then I'll take him back out later, but I just don't want to cut his napping short since he seems to like it, and I also don't want him going the bathroom on the couch, and I don't want him to be away from his hay for too long either.
