Sleep

Does you rabbit sleep with its eyes open?



Murphy does, I've never seen him sleep witht them closed. Hemostly sleeps laying on his back so obviously he's comfortable, but hestill never closes hiseyes (that I've seen) Is itjust because they are a prey animal?

Oh, and if anyone is interested, Murphy is fully litter trainednow. Faster than I expected, considering I've only had him 18days.

I think ive seen Ivory sleep with his eyes closedonce or twice. but then i turn on my camera and he wakes up. usually ithink when he lays down with his eyes open, i think he's just resting.

Murphy-Boy is so smart! Litter trained that fast?! What a sweetie he is.

Tucker never closes his eyes either. The way I can tell if he'ssleeping is if his eyes roll back just a bit. Fauna does close hereyes. They all have their own way. As you know, because they're preyanimals, they sleep very lightly and in short intervals. Even havingsaid that, sometimes no matter how much I'm around Fauna's cage, whenshe's out, she's out. I've actually checked to see movement from herlittle body to make sure she was breathing.

I know, when his eyes are open like that, I sometimes think he's dead lol.





He is soooo smart. He already knows that "time for bed" meansto go back in his cage. And he's learning what "NO!"means.

I don't think Iszy ever sleeps. Jason has caught Lenci sleeping with her eyes closed.
