When my son (MidnightCoder) was a kid, he had an indoor pet rabbit named Buffy. She had a wonderful enclosure (for our climate, no good in hot places) a 2" x 4" glass aquarium with a wire lid. We bedded her on shavings and it was easy to scoop out and keep clean.
One day I found she had cleared an arena in the shavings, right down to the glass. She was rolling bunny berries around the arena with her nose. Now that's bored! But it also showed me that she had a capacity for play. We got her some toys. Her favourite was one of those wire cat balls. It was easy for her to grab with her teeth and fling it around her cage. She became an excellent "basketball" player, slam-dunking the ball into her water crock whenever she tired of it.
Quite by accident, we learned that Buffy also enjoyed music, especially soft, sappy love songs. She would swoon whenever I played the Righteous Brothers' Unchained Melody. It was quite funny to watch how she hunkered down and seemed to go boneless as she listened.
One of the nicest things about enrichment for pets is that it provides entertainment for their people as well -- and a greater feeling of empathy for the furry members of the family.
