So for those who dont know, my bunny is a rescued feral that i've had for several weeks now. I've had guinea pigs, hamsters and rats before but never a rabbit. For me, the usual way to 'tame' an animal was to just pick it up despite it's not wanting to be touched, it would get used to it after a while and eventually like being around people. How do i go about gettting my bunny used to people? She's not terribly skittish, and she'll come out of hiding when i talk to her and also i can pet her without her running away, but how long before i really start to see some personality come through? I'm eager for her to start coming up to the bars for attention and stuff.
But i hear all this about how rabbits are like cats, some dont like being held a lot and stuff and im worried that my idea/method of frequent handling will make things worse? so what do i do, hardly touch her and mostly watch, or can i pick her up lots, move her around to my bedroom and stuff and have her in my lap (being allowed to jump off if she wants to)
