How active is a pet cottontail rabbit?

As pets, Cottontail rabbits are much less active than domestic pet rabbits. They don't like to be caged, but when they are out of their cage they just sit there. They don't play with toys and generally don't walk/run around a lot.

If you have a shy Cottontail, he would sit in places where he is hidden. A non-shy rabbit will occasionally sit out in the living room with the family.
