Willow Basket

Rabbit Christmas prezzies?

I'm making a homemade rabbit gift basket made of willow.It has 5 small willow balls and 2 medium ones.My local pet store doesn't sell apple tree twigs or any rabbit stuff.What else can I put in her basket besides hay?

Also another quick question.
What can I make my rabbit for christmas.Something good not like a toilet roll stuffed with hay! :p

We recently got some bizarre ecological stuff into the pet shop I'm running that included some rabbit toys. Some of the toys are simply hay woven into unique shapes like flowers or carrots, but you could probably do that with candy cane shapes or something equally suited to Christmas. It's still hay, but it's a lot nicer than a pile of it!

There were also some veggie kabob sticks that are little metal rods suspended by little leather straps from the roof of the cage. That way he can get some fresh veggies without having to put them on the ground where they can get soiled. I was impressed with those, but it might be hard to make them yourself. You might have to improvise, like if you could find a really clean piece of coat hanger wire and use that to suspend the veggies.

Finally, there were some hemp fibre toys wound around a small piece of wood to look like little carrots. I'm not exactly sure how they managed to do it so well, but that might work for you. I gave one to the rabbits in the shop and they take turns just grabbing it from one another and throwing it around. Must be fun or I guess they'd leave it alone. Hope that gives you at least some ideas!
