Does anyone else have a loopy rabbit??

My rabbit, Charlie, or Sir Charles if I am feeling posh (!) is crazy.

We got him in June last year when he was about 8 or 10 weeks old and he was so timid and shy bless him , and gradually he got more and more cheeky and confident, but this year he has just gone bonkers!

I swear he thinks he is dog!

When let him have full run of the back garden when we are at home and he has made it his own garden now, by digging up the plants he didn't like, and leaving all the ones that he does like to munch on!
He even has his own poop corner behind a bush so we can't watch him go!

I have started letting him come in the lounge when it gets dark in the evenings, as I worry about kitty cats getting him (this has happened to one of my bunnies before ) and he loves it but last night he just went loopy.

He was chewing the curtains , he knocked over the washing airer that I was using to hang the bed sheets on to get them dry, and then he decided that he wanted to sit on the shelf under the coffee table, so he climed up, knocked off all the magazines/books/box of tissues and made himself at home.

Does anyone else have a crazy bunny like mine?
He is adorable though.

Here is a photo of him with blue paint on him, as he kept trying to help me paint the fence this summer.
He was covered in it so much one day, that I had to give him a bath.
This was one of the days where he didn't help me so much and just got a few splashes of it on him!

He sounds adorable! My bunnies had their mad moments every now and then. Chewing is pretty normal I used to let stale bread dry out on the heater, gives them something to use their teeth on. Watch out for electric wires!

It might be hormones? Ours had a pet stuffie that he really "related to" if you know what I mean.

Playthings can help, we also had a doggie treat ball, which he used to push around all over the place.

Yes, he chases my feet round the garden and he LOVES them if you get me!!

He also has a football that he chews, pushes round and also....aherm....well... you know!!

Yep, made bunny owner here, also a lop eared one. This one is an indoors one mostly and thinks he is a cat. He also likes to tear up paper, hold it in his mouth so it covers his eyes, and then run aound in circles. When he gets tired he umps up for a cuddle and a stroke, or goes and lies on the stone fire place to cool down.

If he wants some attention andhe is not getting it he will look at who's attention it is he wants and then thump his foot, and he loves to be hand fed. Hover we had him when he qwas very oung and had to hand rear him so that may have something to do with this latter behavour trait.

He also sits with the cat looking out of the patio door at night.
