Haha, you dont. :D Its not a big deal if your rabbit nibbles it a little. Id keep using it until its really torn up and then go out and buy some more. If there is a way to keep her from accessing it, that might help. My rat likes to pull the fleece parts that are hanging out of her cage back into it through the bars and chews on it. If I cared more I could do a better job of stopping it. FYI, Joanns is having a huge fleece sale right now. You could stock up! Hope that helps!

Answer 1

Let him nibble. Its harmless. My male rats have fleece lining the bottom of their cage, and sure, it gets a hole or two in it, but thats fine. It doesnt affect the use.

Answer 3

get the fleece away from the rabbit!!! use straw and newspapers for bedding. depending on where you live, the temps are changing and the rabbits habitat needs to be modified for the weather. i line the warren with a piece of plywood and put layers of old newspaper on it. on top of the paper i put a thick layer of straw. i keep the cover on the litter box and put another cover on top of it to keep the snow out.
