My pet rabbit Bugsy dug out of his pen and normally when this happens Im able to put him back or he comes running for his pellets and goes back by himself but hes been out for 12 days now and he wont let me get more than 5 feet of him and he scurries off. I noticed his eye is swollen shut . He opened it and it was red and watery. I cant catch him and I feel so bad. I wish I never played with the idea of letting him have a pen to run around in. Its 20 by 20 feet and he was content with it for a long time till he learned to dig out this summer. Im expecting to find him dead in the yard one day because of his eye but I hope he just got poked by a twig or something and it clears up. Never ever again will I keep a rabbit in a pen. I really miss my sweet little guy. I will keep trying to catch or trap or lure him with food he likes. I guess Im writing this to vent and to warn others who let their bunnies run around that it is cute to put them in a pen and they are so happy but when they get ill or dig out it could be hard to catch them. He never ran from me before. UGH. Just kick me please
