I just got a mini-rex male rabbit and he has not dug at anything but he constantly digs at my arms and hands?

Question

he is two months old and he is sweet but he just keeps clawing at me very fast and hard

Answer 1

it means that he wants to get away, and has his own space. rabbits hate to be held. When he does that, but put him in his cage, and pet him on the head for a few seconds, adn try again later.

Answer 2

My mini rex also did that, it annoyed me so much! He's probably just trying to get comfy when you hold him, I thought it was adorable when mine did it, just it was annoying too!

He'll stop after a few weeks, when he learns it ain't workin!

lol

Answer 3

There are several reasons why he may do this. He might be trying to "fluff" up your arm and hand to make it more comfortable, and he may be telling you he is hyper and ready to get down and play, try playing with him on the ground for a while and tucker him out and then give him cuddles. You may also try holding him with a blanket over your arm, it will allow him to fluff it up to his liking and protect your skin at the same time.
