Rabbit Digging on me?!?!

[madisonl702]

Once in a while my little baby bunny will dig on me. What does that mean? Does he want something??

I believe digging is hormonal behavior. Mine happens to dig on everything and everyone, occasionally accompanied by spraying as well. He might just want your attention, or he's treating you like a fellow rabbit.

How old should rabbits get neutered? How much is it usually? How do I find a good vet? Bc I should save up. Some people say that they think my rabbit is around 1 month old.

There are many reasons why a rabbit may dig at you. It might be trying to get your attention - it wants a treat, wants to be petted, needs to pee, wants you to move out of the way. Then some rabbits just like digging and rearranging fabric, including your clothes.

Where did your rabbit come from? Typically a rabbit is 8 weeks or older when sold. A 4 week bunny should still be on momma's milk.

Males usually can get neutered around 4+ months. Females 5-6 months. Prices vary greatly per vet. I believe there is a section here on RO for finding good vets. There is also a page on rabbit.org that explains how to find a good rabbit vet. Just find the "spaying/neutering" clicks.

My bunnie always stomps his foot does this mean he is mad or happy

I read that it can be both.
