Rabbit Training

GENERAL
Rabbits can be trained in a way peculiar to the animal. They are creatures of habit.  Once a location has been used as a 'potty spot', the rabbit tends to use it again.  Take fresh droppings and urine soaked litter and place it in a litter box.  Show this to the rabbit.  The rabbit will find the litter box on their own thereafter.

LETTING A RABBIT RUN
Rabbits enjoy running.  It is natural for them to frisk about.  It is best to do this only when supervised. 

CHEWING
A rabbit cannot resist chewing an electrical cord or speaker cable.  No amount of discipline will change this.  Rabbits also enjoy chewing wood.  A block of wood is a pleasant diversion and represents no harm to the rabbit.  Avoid soft plastic items; the rabbit can ingest them.

PUNISHMENT
Rabbits aren't puppies!  Conventional scolding or swatting doesn't work.  When a rabbit does something unfortunate, just put it back into its cage and ignore it.  Pretty soon it will associate going back into a cage for certain acts.  Remember this: there are no trained rabbit acts.

CARDINAL RULE
Don't try to house two adult male rabbits.  This shy creature will not tolerate male company.  A buck rabbit doesn't have buddies!  However, two does will get along well.
