My bunny attacked me!?

Question

Ok I went out to my bunny and at the moment shes in a little pen outside in the shade. Its pretty hot and she might be adjitated but it came to a shock to me when she attacked. I moved her bowl. Sometimes she likes to move it around. She never drinks from it(she has a water thing already). After that she went after my finger..I heard a hiss and it didnt hurt. It was just such a shock since shes never done it before. HELP?! Has my bunny gone bad?

Answer 1

Yikes! I always get a bit nervous when my rabbit gets nasty, which isn't very often considering he's 11 years old. What gender is your bunny? Male bunnies are usually more aggressive than female bunnies.

LOL! I don't think your bunny has gone mad. Maybe it was just having a crazy moment. If you're really concerned though, see a vet. Aggression can be caused by hormones- especially in young rabbits. What's his/her name by the way? :)

Answer 2

Has your pet been slobbered on by a rabid wolf?  Better be careful near it.

That's hilarious.  Sorry.  Anyways, this site actually looks useful: http://www.fuzzy-rabbit.com/behaviourfaq...   Especially read the section titled "Why won't my rabbit let me touch it? aka. My rabbit hates me"
