My rabbit keeps chewing on its cage bars, why?

[]

Answer

Bar chewing in rabbits can indicate several things. Often, it's a sign of boredom or a need for more mental and physical stimulation. Rabbits have continuously growing teeth, so they instinctually chew to wear them down; they may need more appropriate chew toys. It could also suggest a need for more space or a desire for attention. Ensure your rabbit has a spacious enclosure, a variety of safe chew toys made from untreated wood or hay, and regular supervised out-of-cage time. Dental issues can also cause chewing changes, so if these remedies don't help, a vet check-up is wise. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
