My rabbits don't care, especially Butterscotch who would just jump right into your arms for a nice hug, pet or rub.

Thanks everyone! I just wanted to make sure Iwasnt doing something wrong hehe She seems to like being pet, as longas its BEFORE play time. Once I turn her loose, she's a wild bunny andwhen I catch her to put her back she freaks out LOL

Anywhere from the nose to the back of the neck,including the ears. They don't like having their bodies pet (my theoryis that they associate it with our grooming them and they don't likeit)
Ours don't like any petting during playtime unless they come begfor it or lay down fro a break and you carefully walk over, lay down,and pet them.

I am currently learning the art of bunnymassage. It claims to really relax them, is good foremotional issues and eases the bunny in stressful situations.Pez seems to really enjoy it, but then again you could shave all hisfur off and he thinks he is being loved. Cleo is stillsitting on the fence, she is the typical fickle female, it has to be onher terms or forget it!... I'm not sure about how Gracie feels aboutit... she just kind of lies there rolling her eyes at me!

Bunny massage? Is there a website for that? Sounds kinda interesting.
So far, Chinny is pretty calm when Im holding her before play timestarts. Ill sit with her for a few mins and pet her face and head, rubher neck and even pet her back. She just sits there and looks at me lolShe even lets me flip her onto her back to trim nails.
Once I put her in her room for play time, thats all done with lol Icatch her when its time to go back, and she freaks out and tries to getaway. So far, she wont take any treats from me. Not even stuff she eatsregularly in her cage. So I guess it will just take some time. I justgave her two cheerios in her dish, and she ate them. So I am hoping shedecides those are really good. I need some craisins lol
Kricket, arent dutch bunnies adorable? hehe

Lop you can touch all over. (You can practicallydo anything with her)I have been known to lay on the floor with my headresting on her.
Loo, only when it suits her. She is a very independant bunny.
Poppy is very much like Loo, but she has her moments of 'I want strokes'

From the info. I have read, you're not reallysupposed to rub their keysters, nor the length of their ears - why not?Especially, if he likes it?
