AL one of our foundation rabbits loves moving our large exercise ball with his nose and body weight.  He’ll nudge the ball or slap his body against it to move it around.  We recognized the soccer player in him him and decided to get a “ball his size.”   I searched around and was able to find a 2″ diameter wooden ball made of birch.  We ordered 3 balls for 3 rabbits.  Here are the results:

All 3 rabbits will play with the ball several times a day at about 5-10 minute increments.   One rabbit plays with his for fun like a soccer ball controlling it around in his cage.  Another rabbit, Calvin, seems to try to eat the ball and finds himself chasing it after every attempt to bite it.  Now Tim he does a little of both.  Once I caught him playing with it.  He was moving it around with his nose in his cage until the ball gets pinned.   I’ve also caught Tim trying to get a bite of it and instead he got in a few laps in his cage…..Muhahahaha (my villain laugh).

I found the wooden balls on Ebay.   You want to get a ball at a diameter sizable to your rabbit and insure it is too big for he/she to try to swallow.   The wooden ball is fun for you and your rabbits.  Keep Your Rabbit Active!
