If my bunny licks a little stuffed plushie cow, does that mean he loves it?

That's absolutely adorable! Maybe he thinks of the cow as his friend or job to look after! Mine aren't really lickers, although Foxwell sometimes tries to stand on my feet and lick my shins when I'm getting ready in the morning... It's very distracting and weird, but it definitely makes me laugh!
Haha! I love that! And ya it’s adorable. He has a loft that he likes to go up on and he tosses everything we put on it EXCEPT the cow plushie. He’ll rest his head on it, lick it, and just chill with it.

Sounds like he is grooming his little plushy friend! That's okay. Trixie does the same thing with her baby rabbit plush that I have for her too. She will occasionally lay next to it and give it a few licks before resting. I think of the plushy rabbit as a friend for her.

You're really missing out on some tender moments with your bun if the cow is getting all the kisses and grooming. Our little Blue has a furry ball that came off of something or other that he has adopted. He does the same thing with it. I made a mistake one day and picked it up and threw it for him, like we doHe likes to play fetvh with his willow balls, so one day I picked up his fur ball and threw it. BAD MOVE!!! This is definitely not a fetch ball. To him it's a living breathing companion. I was shunned for the better part of a week. He wouldn't even eat or drink if I was the one to serve it. My wife had those duties to herself until I was forgiven, or had served my sentence. I'm still not sure which it was.

That's SOO cute. & I'll admit, I find it really entertaining when bunnies "rearrange" their space or toss things.

They can really hold a grudge can't they?? I can't help but giggle a little bit but this is good to know! My rabbit grooms her soft plush bed and all of her stuffed toys.

Ellie does this with her 2 stuffed rabbits. Hope it is a good sign for the soon to be bonding process
You must get the stackable baby cups. My bun goes crazy for those. Well wake up in the morning and see that he tossed them into his food bowl or litter box. He really is weird.

Awww that's so sweet. He is soo cute. They love us when they want to. Funny thing about buns. I've never had an animal teach me so much patience ♡

YESSSS. I WILL HAVE TO BUY THOSE.
And they’re like $4 on amazon so not exactly the biggest investment. And get baby keys! He throws those around whenever he gets pissed about life.

Gosh, our buns may be personality twins. She gets in her mood and loves to toss her bowl of kale, etc. Thanks for the ideas
We're lucky I guess--Cosmo grooms both of us and runs around our feet or picks up an egg carton or paper roll and runs around the room about 8 or 10 times--then the grooming begins. He was one of the problem bunnies we rescued from death row for behavior issues (biting) but after 2 days with us he's never done it again. Just got to love it when your bunny shows affection, even if it is a stuffed companion.
