Hi all, I am new to forums so not too sure if I'm doing this right. My bunny Hopper is a little over 1 year old and is a beautiful rex. I adopted him from a friend who''s children had lost interest in him. He lives in a large run in our living room and his cage is in the middle giving him constant access to his run and he''s able to see all the goings on in our house. I spent a lot of time bonding with hopper when we got him 4 months ago and eventually he would hop onto my knee and my shoulder and lick me furiously. When I come home from work he runs up to the edge of the run to greet me. Lately, he has become less affectionate, only hopping on my knee for treats. Are bunnies prone to moodiness? . He has never enjoyed being held or stroked, in fact the only way to have a crafty stroke is when he is chewing a toy or eating a treat, is this normal ? If I lay on the floor he will lick my face and bump me with his nose, but I'm not sure if this is him being affectionate or not. Also, despite having lots of toys (probably too many) and attention from us all, he persists in chewing the bars of the run and lifting them with his nose in a tantrum. Do bunnies have child like temper tantrums ? I am currently saving up to have hopper neutered as my vet says that it's the right thing to do. He isn't spraying at the moment, but could the other behaviour be sign's of frustration and that it's getting time I booked him in for the op ? I got him a little stuffed bunny friend in case he was lonely (Mrs snuggles) and he licks her and brings her toys and sleeps next to her, but I don't think it's doing the trick. Any advice would be helpful, I'd love nothing more than to have cuddles and strokes with hopper and have him content and happy to interact with me, I'm not sure if I'm doing it right.
