This presents a couple of dangers, one to your rabbit s health and another to your possessions. The best way to handle a rabbit s need to gnaw is to confine it to a rabbit-proof area. Be sure there are no electrical cords or other hazards within the rabbit s reach and remove any prized possessions. Meanwhile, give the bunny plenty of safe toys and blocks of wood to gnaw. If you still think a bunny is the right pet for you and your family, the best place to start looking is your local animal shelter.
