I'm sure most of you have seen my thread about trying to find homes for some of my rabbits because of everything thatis going to be going on here next year.
Anyway, I was getting as many as possible neutered/spayed before finding them homes. Sophie is one that I got spayed. Before she was fixed, which was about three-four months ago BTW, she had some cage aggresion issues and was rather fearful of being touched. Now-I can't even open the door without getting attacked! She's even leaping at me before I open the door, as in attacking the wire!
I really don't get it, I have been so careful to avoid doing anything to frighten or stress her. I move slowly around her, talk in a calm and soothing voice, and she gets a stern tone when she scratches or bites me. Thankfully, now that it's colder I am wearing heavier clothes so she hasn't been able to actually do much physical damage. Do you think mabye she needs more toys? More play time? Although I will admit, I am a little nervous about picking her up and carrying her to the x-pen! Has anyone else ever had one do this, or have any ideas about what could be going on here?
