Rocking Rabbit

[bunnychild]

Hello. I have noticed that one of my rabbits, Kiaya, will rock side to side. She has done this since I first got her. She only does it when she is on the grooming mat and I'm not touching her and when I talk to her in the cage. I'm not worried about her, but I am curious about what it means.

Maybe it's similar to weaving? Weaving is a habit that some horses get where they sway side to side, shifting their weight back and forth. I'm not sure why they do it, but they do it when they're bored and it's very hard to break.

I don't think so. Her eyes look kind of like she is in a trace.
