Bunny chew on a lot of things. it is so they can wear down their continually growing teeth. Give him other things to chew like dried branches, untreated wicker baskets and paper towel tubues.

bunnies are very very good chewers. Mine chewed an electrical cord (I stopped him before he could do real damage to himself or the cord). Basically you have to bunny-proof your rabbit's area. The fabric can be dangerous if he swallows it.
Provide lots of chew toys.
www.busybunny.com is one good site.
www.hrs.org is the site for the House Rabbit Society
the yahoo group Etherbun is a great group dealing with bunny behavior, health and care.
p.s most bunny toys in pet stores are really not safe for bunnies. Also, salt wheels are NOT recommended.
The House Rabbit Handbook by M. Harriman is a good book to have.

Their front teeth never quit growing (they're like your fingernails) so they chew on things to wear them down and prevent them from getting too long. It's an instinctive behavior, so it's hard to make them stop. I would just keep them away from your clothes!

Ours had a knack for chewing up electrical wires, but never really had an interest in clothes.

i used to have a bunny...and yes, they chew on just about everything. you should get it a "chewing block" (it's recommended just like a salt wheel is....and if u wanna play w/ it then dont wear your favorite clothes!! :] )
