My rabbits Lola and Ralphie eat newspaper that goes in their litter tray and they absolutly love cardboard boxes. They just enjoy chewing things, and i guess its different textures etc. In the wild they would be chewing and grazing and pulling bark off trees etc, so its only natural they will still have these urges. Also as you give them all their food, a boredom factor comes in to play. They're not searching for food so what can they do, apart from chew stuff. Make sure you have loads of toys, tubes, make dens, hide veggies around the garden/house for them, a large cardboard box can provide hours of entertainment for a rabbit! If you can get wood blocks or bits of tree trunk still with bark on they love these aswell. Good luck entertaining your bunny!

No that is volatile and risky for your rabbit. There might want to be harsh elements contained in the paper and can want to dam up your rabbits intestine. do not supply it for your rabbit lower back yet do not problem about your rabbit because the paper will come out in its droppings, even if that is sweet no longer to allow it eat it lower back quite A4 or higher/smaller products of lined paper because the lines were printed. each so often my hamster nibbles newspaper interior his cage, and he's superb. Your rabbit will stay, yet make effective it would not eat it lower back! wish I helped! :D x

my Jeremy does the same thing. i think they may do that to keep the teeth worn down. their teeth grow continuously. it's totally normal. timothy hay or oat grass (found at most pet stores) is a must in their diet. google House Rabbit Society. anything you ever wanted to know about rabbits is there.

You need t stop him from doing this as i had a pet mouse once who had an overdose of paper - (i was away out at the time) and it died! - so DO NOT LET HIM EAT PAPER!!!!
