Recently I was talking to a client about a do-it yourself rabbit toy and craft I had made for his rabbit while it was under my care. I first made this for Chestnut when he grew disinterested in his chew toys. Every once in a while he goes through a period where he likes to bite at things. We went through a gambit of chewing products from the pet store but none seemed to interest him. One day, I decided to try folding some origami balls out of paper. Chestnut took to them right away. He liked to carry one in his mouth as he ran around. He also liked to pounce on them to squish them, and of course, tear them apart. There are quite a few steps to making origami paper balls, but they are very easy to make. You can also use different sizes of paper to create large and small balls. Try using paper with different thicknesses. The thicker the better. This is a very inexpensive toy and no loss if destroyed by your bunny. Hope your rabbit(s) get as much enjoyment from this craft as mine does!
