What's the best way to get my free-roaming bunny to use his cage?

I let my bunny roam in my room all day and night. He hardly goes into his home, unless it's to eat and drink. How can I teach him to go inside his home?

I would recommend making his home more welcoming with toys and treats. You can hide treats in his cage and add bunny safe toys to keep him preoccupied. You can also place a nice sleeping area in the cage as well. The more fun/comfortable his cage is, the more likely he will want to spend time there.
