They really like to chew! They NEED to chew! Be sure that you are providing things that are safe for them to chew on such as cardboard, sticks from your yard, empty toilet paper tubes, etc. Cloth toys are NOT good! The fibers can get stuck in their intestines.
Rabbits chew their cage for many reasons, like boredom, anger, the urge to be free (get out of the cage), or because their teeth are too long and it's bothering them.
About boredom: Rabbits need enough room in their cages to move around, and they need some toys of play structures in there to keep them entertained. Rabbits that are bored can turn destructive, aggressive, reclusive, depressed, anxious, and sick. See the related questions below about rabbit cages and playing for more info and helpful links.
About teeth: A rabbit's teeth never stop growing, so they might chew on the cage to grind down their teeth. However, this is not a safe way to let your rabbit grind her (or his) teeth down: metal bars are too hard and can injure a rabbit's teeth! The best way to keep a rabbit's teeth in good health is to give the rabbit plenty of hay to eat - unlimited amounts, 24/7. Twigs and branches are also good for this purpose.
Hay: Normal, healthy adult rabbits need grass hay, like timothy, brome, orchard grass, meadow grass, bluegrass, etc. Alfalfa hay (a legume hay) is better for juvenile rabbits (under 7 months), pregnant and nursing rabbits, and some sick/underweight rabbits (under a vet's care) - but it's too high in proteins and calcium for most adults. Hay should be sweet-smelling, fresh, greenish, not mouldy at all, and low on dust.
Twigs and branches: Choose branches that don't have any pesticides on them, or car exhaust, or other chemicals. Some woods are toxic to rabbits (like pine, cedar, and the wood of stone fruits, like cherry, peach, and plum), so make sure you're giving your bunny safe woods. Some safe woods include: apple, willow, and twigs from berry bushes (like raspberry, blackberry, strawberry).

They bite their fur just because its a instink. And its the way they bathe
No,the rabbits not bite people...Only if they have rabies(the zombies)...
All rabbits bite. It is their only self-defense.
Male rabbits either bite ti protect themselves or they bite to protect a mate or their babies, or they just wan to fight and play.
Yes they do, normally they bite because of a reason. If they're new, they might bite you everytime you cuddle them or feed them because they dont know you too well. I also have two rabbits of my own who bite me quite alot.
They can bite but that's about it for harm.There able to bite, but they don't bite often.
Not really, but they can bite hard. I've been bitten enough times. Most of the time they give a softer warning bite before they really dig in. What are you doing to all these rabbits to make them bite you? Rabbits are fairly timid and don't bite unless they are provoked.
From another animal bite?
If you irritate a rabbit, it will bite you or nibble you to show a warning not to do that again. They will also bite if you take away their food, pull their fur, kick them around, and pull its ears. Rabbits will bite for self - protection and warning.
rabbits will only run away if they're scared and may bite if you smell of poo so if they bite u need a shower
No, but they may bite an uncooperative doe. A male rabbit that bites it's mate is not a desirable breeder in my rabbitry.
No, rabbits do not carry any diseases that they can transfer to you unless they are rabid which is highly unlikely.
It will be foaming at the mouth and will have an desperate desire to bite you!! Honestly :0|
