Hey, guys
Once again I come seeking advice on Ender, my Lionhead rabbit.
He's suddenly become very hostile, grunting whenever I get close to his cage and lunging at me whenever I leave food on his plate. I'm a bit concerned about his behaviour and I don't know what to do so I need some advice.
A couple of things worth mentioning though:
1.- When I got him, the pet store owner said he was 3-4 months old approx. He hasnt been neutered yet so maybe that's causing it?
2.- He only acts this way whenever he's inside his cage, I usually let him out all day and he's got a couple of cardboard boxes to hide in and a big cardboard castle I recently made for him, he'll come close to my feet whenever I get close and let me pet him, but I have a small apartment and Ender resides in the room where I work, so when I go to sleep I'll usually trick him into getting into his cage. By the time he's inside, he'll cold butt me and start grunting and lunging at me.
Any ideas on how to handle this little devil? I'm concerned that he acts this way, he becomes specially hostile in the mornings, I usually hand feed him but recently he won't take food from my hand and whenever I try to leave him food in his plate which is inside his cage he lunges at me and grunts a lot.
Thanks in advance!
