apparently, the official world record in high jump for rabbits is 99.5 cm....
he is getting old, but if he enjoys the exercise, theres no harm in letting him do it - just dont FORCE him and dont set the jump too high.... if he is jumping it without much effort, I cant see a problem. remember his age and be kind.

Quite impressive - I've seen rabbits jump over a metre high run though! They're pretty astounding. I don't think it would be a problem to let your rabbit carry on jumping if that's what he wants to do - so long as it is out of choice and not to get out of somewhere. It's what rabbits do!

Rabbits have weak hearts so don't encourage him to jump, but let him if it is what he feels like doing.

what do u mean by "give him a rest"? hope u don't give him "RIP"..i think u should let the rabbit do what he like..either jumping or not.
