My rabbit like too climb/hop in my bed.

[LuxleoGreen]

Hi!  AJ is continuing to warm up to my mom and I (especially me, since I’m his “momma”.  ) Two days ago, he started hoping in my bed! Well, moreso climbing up the side of the bed and getting in. I didn’t even think he was able to do that, Lol. My bed isn’t that low to the ground. Anyways, I don’t really mind him being up there, but when he is up there he pees. He’s potty trained, by the way. And he usually gets in the bed at night while I’m trying to sleep.(The first time that happened, I watched scary movies before bed and it scared me to death! Lol!!!)  I think he climbed in the bed a little more than 8 times last night.   

Do you think this is his way of trying to bond with me or something else?  Is there anyway I can stop this at night (I don’t mind it as much in the day time)?  

Thanks!

Once Wick figured out he could reach the bed, he’ll go there occasionally. It’s a variable environment that’s very soft and fluffy, so rabbits really like it.

AJ really wants to hang, but his rabbit nature makes peeing pretty common for soft fabrics, haha. You can do litter training for the bed so AJ figures out litterbox rules still apply to the bed.

Wick gets locked away in his hutch at night, but his hutch is right next to the bed, so he still hears and senses me around. I worry about kicking/smooshing him, and then also accidentally crushing a poop on the bed and sleeping in poo dust, haha.

Depending on what you have in your bedroom, you can close your door at night?
