bubby screamed

[rabbitgirl]

Bub was running around madly as usual, tossinghis head, showing off, biting the bars waiting for me. And then, justsitting there--out of the blue--he gave this bizarre little shriek.Didn't seem distressed before or after. He kept on bouncing off thewalls, climbing all over me, all the usual.

The only possible thing I can think of is that he was impatient--but I have NEVER heard of a bunny shrieking for minor reasons.

He seems totally fine--I'm baffled!

Any ideas?

What a frightening thing to hear, Rose.

As you know, they usually don't scream unless they're in pain orfrightened. Were you able to feel him for anyabnormalities?

That is odd. Keep an eye on the little guy.

got a guess: he poked himself in the nose with a wire.

That would hurt!

poor bunny

well, he was ripping apart his cage because he was mad. Maybe he'll learn a lesson from that!

He looked just fine when I went out to check on him a little while ago.

Weird bunny!

Ouch! A wirein the nose?! I would have screamed too...Hopefully that's what it was. It's possible...Maybe because he was so mad and got poked, that he just had to let abad bunny word out in a scream. Like my Mom does whensomething is dropped on her foot. =)

Sometimes Mella screams for no reason. I know, itsounds crazy. She'll just walk over and scream. I was so shaken by itthe first time she did it that I posted here right away, worried sick.Pamnock advised me that some rabbits just scream when a noise bothersthem. She had rabbits that shrieked at the sound of pellets hittingtheir bowls.

No WAY! I wondered if any others did that, because honestly he was acting perfectly normal (ripping the cage apart).

I'll bet that was it--freaky, though, isn't it?

SO freaky! I've asked her never to do it again.
