Can ferrets use an exercise ball?
They recommend that guinea pigs not use these toys, as it can lead to back problems. Ferrets are much larger, and longer, so no, I wouldnt recommend that you give them an exercise ball, or a wheel.
Can a bunny use an exercise ball?
Rabbits' backs don't really bend that way, very bad idea.
How do I get my bunny to use the exercise ball I got him? He just sits in it.?
YOU DON'T PUT RABBITS IN EXERCISE BALLS. They're not made for rabbits, they're not suitable for rabbits, and they don't need balls- small animals need them so you don't lose them when you let them out on the floor. You'd be an idiot to lose a rabbit. Let the poor thing run around on its own legs and it'll be happy.
How can I give my bunny exercise?
We let r bunnys run in the basement in the winter. we block off an area where theirs no wires or anything and let them play. Or you can take a sheet of plastic a tarp or a few large garbage bags and lay them down ( rip the bags first so it's just a flat sheet of plastic) and let her play:) and NEVER leaver her when she's outside the cage.
How long should my bunny be let out of its cage for?
Question is, how big is the cage you have him in?? My rabbits had playtime for about 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours at night. That gave me enough time to clean there cages, and give them fresh feed and water. They enjoyed it. But with him being inside, i dont know if he is litter box trained... if not, then every 10-15minutes put him back in his cage for a potty break and let him back out. If he is litter box trained, then you can have him out as long as you want no-more than 2 hours, because they get hungry,thirsty and sleepy. Just let him now where the litter box is when you let him out.
What can I use to entertain my pet bunny rabbits?
Ideally, give them a room or several rooms to roam around and explore (which are rabbit-proofed and safe for them). If you have to keep them in an enclosed area most of the time, this is even more important. Rabbits like to hop up on furniture, although if you have an older rabbit jumping down from a high up piece of furniture can be risky for them. Rabbits are pretty curious and love to explore, so this is a good way to keep them entertained. They also like to rearrange and modify their living areas, so make sure they can do that--i.e., chew on their hiding spot or move stuff around in their area, dig at any towels they might sit on, etc.There are lots of toys you can buy rabbits; Oxbow has a lot of good stuff, and The Busy Bunny Home also has good products. Our rabbits thought the hay they use to fill the balls was amazing. Cardboard boxes with a hole pre-cut out for the rabbit to get in and out are also great. Rabbits like to chew on the cut out areas and nudge the box around. Make sure the cardboard box hasn't been coated or painted with anything--anything rabbits chew on you should view as something they might ingest. And if you have way more time than me, you can make something like this: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&...Holding a stick (that's safe for your rabbit to eat) while they chew on it is a fun thing to do with your rabbit if you can get them to start chewing on it, although be careful to not let them chew near your fingers. I never got bit by accident but it's good to avoid it! One of our rabbits would pull a card from our hand if we presented him with a set of cards fanned out, which I think was more fun for us than for him, but he seemed to like doing it.
Can you put a rabbit in a "run-about ball"?
I wouldn't recommend these. The only animals I've seen that appear to use and ENJOY a run-about ball are hamsters. Ferrets get frustrated and rats are usually bored/confused (some exceptions). Bunny proofing an area where he can free roam is highly preferable, cause bunnies like to investigate things with their noses and teeth. Being stuck behind a wall of plastic allows them to do nothing but move. Also, I have yet to see a run-about ball that is really large enough for bunnies. Even the ones they sell for ferrets are far too small for bunnies (or ferrets, for that matter). Bunnies also don't 'hop from time to time' - it's primarily how there bodies are built to move. This type of motion is not suited to a ball - these guys are built for flat-out high-speed movement and if you've ever seen one run you'll understand - putting a bunny in a ball is like putting hobbles on a horse. This is a device for restraint (and human convenience), not exercise. Keep in mind that many of the products in a pet store are gimicky and designed to appeal to customers, rather than filling a genuine need for their pets. And also, just a heads up, I don't know where you're getting your bunny but pet stores often underestimate the adult size, recommend the wrong foods, and encourage you to purchase cages that are far too small. Be informed before you go into the store! Make sure you know more than the sales clerk does. I'm glad you're asking questions! Keep researching your bunny, it's very important. :)
Can rabbits go in those hamster balls?
If it were much larger, yes. But there's no way a rabbit could fit in one of them.
