My rabbit chews wires & makes messes. How to stop this behavior?

This is very normal rabbit behavior. I suggest you try to give her plenty of things that she is allowed to chew on like woven hay structures, wood blocks, etc. This website has a lot of options: https://barksandbunnies.co.uk/ As for the places she has already chewed, you can try to spray Bitter Apple on those areas. Sometimes it deters them, sometimes not. Rabbits really are meant to be outdoors. https://www.amazon.co.uk/s?k=c%26g+no+chew&ref=nb_sb_noss_2

Rabbits love to chew. Your best options are to limit your rabbit's access to these items through the use of playpens or gates blocking them, and to make sure Dandie has enough appropriate chew toys in their environment or play area to encourage healthy chewing on those items instead.

Thanks for reaching out about Cocoa. The first step is to have her spayed as hormones often lead to defensive measures. Sometimes these behaviors are ingrained and altering does not calm them down. Then it is training and winning trust. All the animals should be altered prior to attempting to introduce. As for chewing wire et al., providing them with materials they are allowed to chew (hay blocks, wicker animal approved toys, cardboard boxes), can distract. Painting wiring with vinegar or bitter apple (used to deter people from biting their fingernails) can work. Good luck.

Bunnies are notorious at chewing up objects in the house! It is a natural behaviour, which we can try to redirect by giving her other options to chew on, such as timothy hay disguised inside cardboard tubes, commercial hay tunnels, or other types of bunny-safe toys where you can hide the hay in. Basically, anything that involves searching out and chewing hay would be great because it allows them to act out on their chewing in a safe, healthy, and mentally stimulating way. Unfortunately I agree with you, the fleece blanket is not safe if she is potentially ingesting pieces and it should be removed. I hope this helps! And have fun with your bun - she is such a cutie!

Chewing is a natural and essential behavior for rabbits to keep their constantly growing teeth worn down. Ensure he has permanent access to good quality fresh hay and also rabbit safe chewing blocks such as timber from apple trees or commercial chew toys etc, a feed ball which drops pellets as he rolls it can be very helpful. Ensure he hs daily exercise for mental and physical stimulation

He may be bored with the items in his cage. Keep a variety of toys and chew treats for him and rotate their usage to prevent boredom. You can also let him out of his cage for play and exercise each day. Supervision is required so he doesn't chew cords or wires. Rabbits do sleep and it would be good to provide a dark area or turn the lights off at night so he can rest.

Rabbits can be quite mischievous! Eating paper in small amounts isn't going to be too problematic. The best thing you can do is limit the items that your rabbit has any access to, thereby preventing ingestion of harmful substances. Only provide access to chew toys, wooden objects, and food that you want consumed by your bunny. Hope this helps!
