Rabbits play in a variety of different ways and each individual rabbit is unique in itself. 

Below is a  list of unique bunny behaviors, and how to set up each 'bunny personality type' with the best type of toy to suit their unique needs!


1. The Miners 

The miners  are a dirty little group who like to get in to trouble with the local  houseplants.  Just like wild rabbits, many domestic rabbits like to dig  and burrow. 

Recommend-  Place Hanging toys near the bottom of  the cage.  This gives Miners something to dig their nails  into.


2. Major Leaguers -

These rabbits make  their living a professional pitchers.  They spend all day tossing and  flinging unwary toys about.  It is essential that Major Leaguers have  the means to pick
up their toys.  Don't worry too much about  weight,  even baby rabbits can pick up some of the heaviest toys  and toss them!

Recommend- Give Major Leaguers toys that contain  sisal for easy pick up.  Most toys that remain loose on the floor are  the best choices.


3. Bullies

Bullies are hitters  who have to take their frustrations out on something!  Bullies like  hanging toys most since they box back when attacked.  This gets the  Bully all worked up and keeps him busy for hours.  He has just GOT to  defeat that toy!

Recommend-  Since Bullies like to box,  pick  toys that can hang. 
These toys are best hung in the middle of a  bunnies cage so that
a lot of movement is possible.


4. Busy  Beavers

Beavers my name, chewing's my game.  Chew Chew  Chew, that is number one on the Busy Beavers list of things to do today.  Beavers love to chew and their favorite things to chew are  popsicle sticks and bark covered wood.  Real Heavy chewers take  advantage of anything they can get their teeth on!

Recommend - Most  Hanging toys are great for Beavers,  just try
to match the size of the  toy with the ferocity of the Beaver.  Choose
toys with hardwoods that  will last longer than soft pine.


5. Renovators 

Many rabbits like to rearrange their surroundings and Renovators 
are the experts.  Renovators like to push, bunch and pile anything 
that moves.  This usually means your rugs, clothes, towels, or 
whatever happens to be in the way.

Recommend - Your best bet is to  find some old towels or rugs that can be easily bunched.  Please beware  of loose threads when choosing your Renovators towel or
rug,   rabbits can easily become entangled in these threads as well as swallow  them.  Toys that lay
on the cage floor are also great for  Renovators.


6. Cliff Hangers 

A  weak and timid bunny he is not!  The Cliff Hanger takes daredevil leaps  and breathtaking bounds.  There is no box too high nor couch too  low.  They thrive on being king of the hill and use their high perches  as look outs.
