Soft toys for single bunnies?

I was wondering whether anybody could recommend a rabbit-friendly soft toy or give an example of something they use or have used in the past?

I'd like to get Buddy a soft toy to snuggle up to over the winter for comfort, as unfortunately I just can't give the time and attention needed to bond him at the moment.

I think B3rnie mentioned this in another thread...? Buddy's just as nibbly as the next bunny, so I don't want to give him something which he will tear apart in five minutes or which could be potentially harmful! I don't have kids myself, but I'm guessing that anything suitable for an infant might be good place to start...?

He's already enjoying the warmth of his new snugglesafe headpad in the shed, so this will just be something extra really!

Thanks in advance for any suggestions

Please don't give one of those to your rabbit they are very, very toxic to rabbits, if you want something warm then go for a snugglesafe as they are designed for small animals

Re: Soft toys for single bunnies?

I got Alan and Lottie a teddy each before they were bonded and I bought them one that was actually meant for dogs! So if you look in your local pet shop you might find something suitable.
