Dang, those would sure beat tin cans and sticks!
Tin cans and sticks are fun too! But the nice thing about these is that they are designed to be hung up so the rabbits can't soil them with poop.

Wouldn't the plastic rings be bad for them? I know my girl would love to eat it ALL up.
I used to work at veterinary hospitals, and the things that cause blockages are large (usually relatively flat) pieces of things like a chunk of plastic from a squeaky toy or fabric. Lots of dogs came in for surgery to remove socks and underwear from their guts! :x As long as whatever it is is small enough to get through the pyloric valve from the stomach and isn't a long item like string, it should easily pass out of the system.
I have never seen any signs of the plastic in my rabbits manure though, and I pay very close attention.

I've had a few nibble through plastic rings, but it takes a long time.
Most of the rabbits leave them mostly alone, but some do really enjoy chewing the rings up... like dogs, there are "power chewers" who will make short work of the wood and rings, and others that just nibble here and there.

Perhaps, I'll be able to convince the man that every single rabbit needs a Christmas present. Probably. He's a pushover.
Oooh! :greedy: I hope so! :twisted:
Fair warning, though- I sell these at rabbit shows all of the time, and once people start giving them to their bunnehs they are repeat customers. As part of my nefarious marketing plan, I always donate them to the raffle table so new people get to try them out. :hooked:
I like all of my rabbits to have toys. In the morning and evening I really love hearing the jingling of the bells as the rabbits play. It never fails to bring a smile to my face.
