Is it possible for a rabbit to have some sort of cage aggression? I recently got Chocolat a new cage, as her old one got rather small for her. I read somewhere that it's possible to get a cage that's "too big". I didn't really catch when a cage is too big, though. I don't know the exact measurements of her new cage, but it also has a shelf, which she immediately took to the second she was put in the new cage. She loves to hide under it when she isn't lounging on top of the shelf.
I went to take her out a couple days ago, and she clawed at my hands. It's the first time she's ever acted that way toward me. Just last night a friend went to take her out (cuz he loves her), but she clawed at his hands from under the shelf.

It would seem Chocolat is my trouble-maker out of my two bun-buns. She also has this horrible habit of digging at the corners of her cage.. It's only the two corners on the right, too. She did it in her old cage, and she's started it up in this new one now. She always does it at night when I'm trying to sleep, which is even worse. Sometimes she even gets so bad with it that she wakes me up out of a dead sleep. She throws her bedding everywhere, back and forth. It's like she can't make up her mind where she wants the bedding to be. It's driving me nuts and frustrating me; I don't know what to do about it either. Sometimes she gets so bad with both the corner scratching/digging and the bedding digging that I have to sleep in another room in the house.
What's the cause for this? For the longest time, she'd stopped doing these two things, but now she's doing them again. Last time she got so bad with it I was literally chased out of my room.
