Rabbit First Aid
| RABBIT BEHAVIOR |
| ||||||
| +Bunny hop/dance: A sign of pure joy and happiness. This "dancing" includes leaping and/or spinning in the air, racing around, etc. +Chinning: Rabbits rub their chins (which contain scent glands) on items to get their scent on them. This indicates that the items belong to them and also defines their territory. +Thumping or Stomping: The bunny is either frightened, mad, or sensing danger (real or imagined). Reassure him that everyting is ok. +Teeth grinding: Soft grinding indicates contentment and is usually heard when petting the rabbit. Loud grinding can indicate pain and is usually heard during an illness. +Circling your feet: Usually indicates sexual behavior (even when neutered) but basically means "I love you". +Playing: Rabbits like to push or toss objects around. They may also race madly around the house, jump on and off the couch, and act like a child that's had too much sugar. +Grunts: Usually angry - watch out or you could be bitten! +Spraying: Unneutered males will mark female rabbits and their territory in this manner. Unspayed females can also spray. +Territorial droppings: Droppings that are not in a pile, but scattered, are signs that this territory belongs to the rabbit. This will sometimes occur upon entering a new environment or if another rabbit is brought into the house, and may be temporary or ongoing. Droppings in piles indicates that the rabbit needs more litter box training. +Don't touch my stuff!: Some rabbits do not like when you rearrange their cage as you clean and may grunt, charge or even nip you when you try. They are creatures of habit and once they get things just right, they like them to remain that way. +Shrill scream: Hurt or dying. +False pregnancy: Even though a rabbit may not be pregnant, unspayed females may sometimes build a nest & pull hair from their chest and stomach to line the nest. They may even stop eating as usually occurs the day before they give birth. |
