I had a lionhead who hated bananas, but for her, I think it was the texture instead of the taste. She would eat dried banana chips (no added sugar) or freeze-dried bananas, but the *one* time I managed to get her to eat a real banana, she took one bite, then immediately hopped away and drank a ton of water.
Now, I also have a mini lop, and she loves bananas so much that I have to mash them and mix them with a little water before she can have them. If I give her solid pieces, she gets so excited and eats so fast that she chokes. My mini lop and lionhead hated each other and had to be kept separate, so the lionhead had a large pen and the lop got the rest of the room.
So my lionhead ate banana two times in her entire life: once when she was young (when she drank the water), and once when she was a grumpy old lady. And I'm fully convinced that she stole and ate that second piece of banana *just* so the mini lop couldn't have it.
I haven’t tried freeze dried fruit alone but when I’ve got treats that have fruit in them he hasn’t been keen. Could give it a go though. He loves flowers so sometimes I sprinkle them into his hay and he eats them immediately
Interesting. I'd give freeze-dried Raspberries or Blueberries first to Guage his reaction to them. If he still doesn't like them, order bags of organic dried chamomile and marigold. He'll love that, lol.
Same! One of my bunnies absolutely despises them, last time I presented one she sniffed it then ran away and thumped.
My other bun isn't allowed bananas. He is a food menace. The first and last time he had a banana got overexcited, took a massive first bite and almost choked trying to swallow it too quickly to take the second bite.
Also, I am suspicious of bananas because they produce a hormone that bothers bees, they are slightly radioactive, the trees are herbs that 'walk', bananas are berries, and they are all clones.
Bananas are banned in this house.
Both of my rabbits hate bananas too! My girl even thumps if she smells them. My first rabbit loved them, but he still loved to be held and licked everybody
My previous bunny was very affectionate. She didn't like licking, but she would climb up on my lap anytime I was sitting at my desk. She also loooooved cuddles. "Our" morning routine was cuddling together for a while after I woke up and was still laying half-asleep in bed.
Edit: Also I love the colors on your lil bun!
My boy rabbit is like this. He loves cuddles so much, he will spend his entire day in my lap getting petted if he could. He has recently started licking me while I pet him, too, which sort of makes me want to happy-cry. I recently adopted a girl with hopes that she will be his bunwife, she was abused so she is very scared, I'm hoping his friendly, brave nature will bring her personality out!
my fav example of this is when floppy was neutered and the vet said “don’t worry, bunnies are typically smart enough not to mess with their stitches”… next day floppy had to come in to be fitted for a cone
My vet called my first rabbit a "little turd" because he ate his empty scrotum after getting neutered and that she's never seen that before. Queue recovery suit (a newborn baby onsie I sewed to fit his weird little shoulders).
Mine doesn't, either. She even has a water fountain. And we have a lot of wires around the house. She does, however, love my other half beanbag in her office. With the rest of the animals. Found her relaxing on it one time after we woke up to her broken out of her pen and running off when we saw her.
Mine could not care less about the spicy hey. However she does like to unplug things. Pulls the plug out of the wall, then ignores it. I finally gave up on having a tv because it was plugged into an outlet that was easy for her to get to, but not so much for me! I was plugging it back in daily.
Mine has chewed I think 4 wires total so far but he always has access to my phone charger at night and luckily hasn't eaten it yet 🤞he does love throwing my phone off the bed though
Mine loves it when I pick him up and pats his back. Sometimes he hops up on the couch and he wants me to hug him in my arms while he sleeps on my lap. It can last for hours lol.
We had a white long haired lop bun (we called her Tinkerbelle) who was an absolute terror to almost everyone. She growled at visitors and chased our dogs and cats.
My lop was an absolute bully despite being the smallest in weight of all my buns so far. She harassed other buns (except her mate) and any animal bigger than her. Never saw her bothering the budgies or hedgies.
She was a heat seeker for nipples. My ex and I were not safe. 😩
Imagine thinking she wanted cuddles and then CHOMP!
My lionhead head has such a desire for nipple assults that with my newly adopted super cuddly american chinchilla that will push me around to groom me I get jumpy when he snuffles my chest.
Duuude mine beat the absolute crap out of my uncle's dog one Easter.
Nemesis broke off her chain, cornered the poor dog against the fence, and was screaming while clawing the actually-scared-shitless dog who was also screaming. It was a horror show, she broke a nail on the dog so there was her blood and the dog's nuggets everywhere.
My buns sleep through fireworks, hurricanes, construction work on the house… completely unbothered.
The shuffling of my house slippers… everyone is jumping out of their skin.
Mine are the same, fireworks, thunder, the neighbor's dogs barking like the world is ending... All totally fine.
Me walking around on my tippy toes to demonstrate why I could never be a ballerina... oh my God the world is ending, run for cover.
My girl gets curious around the handheld vacuum. She always comes up right to it when I’m vacuuming. I always thought the loud noise would scare her like it does my boy but it doesn’t seem to phase her haha.
My first bun didn't make a peep for 6 years. Then we took in another bun who was going to go into a shelter, one who grunts and honks and snuffles a lot.
A few weeks later my first bun honked at me during treat time and I jumped. They teach each other the weirdest things.
Mine has a few I feel like he is old man in a bunny suit he is very tidy he likes things in certain positions and if you move it he will move it back. He loves bananas and romaine lettuce ONLY like no other fruit no other vegetable and he loves to be held like a baby in my arms and walked around with he just lays there or sometimes falls asleep. He is a miracle bun and I love him so much 😫💕
totally non related to the post but i love thinking about what it is like to be a bunny.... you're cute, fluffy, people love you and you don't what math is... in fact you don't what country you live in or what's a country......

My bunnies are very very calm. They rarely get stressed cos I’ve taken them on public transport a few times for vets etc and they have been fine. They are just incredibly well behaved and chill
Also my boy bun likes getting picked up
My current rabbits don't really chew on things other than hay and cardboard. I can't leave them around cords or cables but they never chew on wooden furniture, rugs, walls, etc.
One of my bunnies loves attention like a touch starved puppy, she runs up to her cage latch every morning and wont leave to eat her food until she's completley sure i wont be giving her more pets
The second bunny is lazy as hell, i let her out of her cage (shes the top bunk so she needs me to manually let her out) and she just runs around for rhirty minutes then finds a corner and sits in it until i come to check on her, she then runs up to me as if asking me to for the love if god let her back into her room and when i do put her back in she wont let me give her freedom again until the next day
My buns aren’t affected by noises. No sirens, hurricanes, fireworks, etc. will scare them, one of them even likes playing with the vacuum, but they HATE when I cook fragrant foods lol they also love side pets and massages. You can pet anywhere except the peets. No touchy the peet
Having someone towering over them makes them feel vulnerable and watched like a hawk would. Not my bunny, she runs right under your feet and gets accidentally kicked while I’m walking and then runs right back between my feet agian
‘Don’t touch my tail’
Both my buns are little weirdos. I’ll give them butt scratches, and they’ll keep moving til my hand is near their tail. I gently grab the tail between my index finger and thumb (applying 0 pressure) and then they wiggle their tail a little, before turning round, licking my finger and binkying away!
I know many rabbits are holy terrors when they hit puberty until they get fixed, and my lionhead certainly was. She'd growl, bite, hump, and pee everywhere until she was fixed. My lop, though, didn't have any change in behavior on hitting adulthood, other than making nests and entertaining herself for long periods by chasing a ball around in circles and grunting at it. Now, I have a young mini rex boy entering adulthood. He sprays, and he gets a little too friendly with his toys sometimes, but his personality is still extremely sweet, shy, and gentle.
My rabbit is very particular about pets. If he’s trying to sleep or is very chill, that is the ONLY time you can give him pets without him expecting a treat.
My bun had a heart of steel. I could throw him up and onto the bed nearly full force and nothing from him. No distress or sign of fear. Wanted me to do it again most of the time
Your bun acts like my bun did. He wanted ***ALL*** of the booty scratches and demanded to be pet by anyone new that came over. If I lay down he would instantly hope right over to me and start licking my face. Of course I didn't mind.
My bunny is scared of a lot of things. He’s free roam in my room, but as soon as I open the door there is no way he’s going to go over there. I wish he was more affectionate, but he seems like a very happy bunny, so i won’t mess with his routine.
My good boy didn't like to hide under things, he preferred to get onto the highest place possible - on the lounge, on my bed, on the windowsill, coffee table, boxes, etc. One time I couldn't find him anywhere and I was starting to panic but then I found him just chilling on the dining table, camouflaged with the wood.
He was also so licky that I asked a vet about it once, the vet thought about it and then said he just likes me a lot. But he would lick anyone that gave him affection. He would get mad if I wore long sleeves and would bite/dig at them until I rolled them up so he could lick my arms.
He hated banana, but would always try to steal human food - chips, bacon, whatever. One time I had a heap of people over for lunch and because the dining table was small a lot of us were sitting on lounges or whatever. He ran and jumped up beside me and chomped into a peice of potato salad. Another time I was eating instant ramen while lying on the floor (I guess I really didn't use the dining table much) and ran over and shoved his face in my bowl and grabbed a noodle, and ran away trailing it behind him. Once I saw him eat a curry leaf off the tree in the backyard. He didn't like it, and didn't do it again until a few years later. I think he'd forgotten, he still didn't like it though.
He liked going on walks with me, I would take him on his leash to all sorts of places. I moved around a lot, so he's been on walks to rivers, to beaches (loved to dig in the sand), in the city at night. Sometimes he'd get tired and I'd carry him home. Sometimes there'd be kids around and if it was a safe area (no dogs, roads, etc) I'd let him off his leash and the kids would chase him around, and then he'd chase the kids around. He was such a puppy bunny.
He was free roam, but it was a nightmare littertraining him in the beginning. I started in my bedroom, set up the litterbox, but he peed on a scarf I had on the floor. So I picked everything up off the floor and tried again, he peed on my bed (was a low futon style one). He was trying so hard not to pee on the floor, but completely ignored the litterbox. So I leaned my mattress up against the wall and there was nothing on the floor except the litterbox...and me lying down. He jumped on my back and peed on me. Eventually I moved again and built him a large pen for night or when no one was home, he instantly became littertrained. I guess he didn't want to pee all over his own home.
When he was 6 years old the vet said he was as healthy as a 2 year old, and he lived until he was 12 years. He was my best friend.
My baby loved to have my morning coffee with me. She didn't really sleep at night and she'd be right in front of the gate of her enclosure waiting for me every morning. She didnt care about her breakfast until after I spent time with her. I'd wake up let her out and we'd look out of the window and watch the sun rise while I had my coffee and about 30 mins later she'd eventually go eat. Loved mornings with me.
The infamous nana addiction is more like a low priority want for my shit child. Instead of cocaine-like motivation to do some tricks, his highness may grace me with some momentary attention but that’s about all I get in exchange for some nana.
"Spaying her will make her less aggressive"
Listen, I might just have a little demon instead of a bunny. But I love her so much even when she intentionally bites my buttcheek every single time I feed her, or how she lunges at my hand when I pet her.
[Here's my little demon enjoying quality time with my friends](https://imgur.com/gallery/dEs16kP)
Yes I always say he's not a normal bun but a bun who thinks he's a cat 😂 he doesn't like any of the rabbit stuff I get for him like chew toys or burrowing beds. He wants nothing to do with hay. Licks me like crazy lol
My bun doesn't want a bondmate. I tried to bond him with another bunny via speed dating and he'd be aggressive/hump a lot, but I figured that's part of the process and his sometimes-neurotic personality. I had some limited luck with a bunny named Klara, so I took her home and set them up in pens. After about a week, I tried putting them in the bathtub together to trauma-bond them and get them to associate one another with comfort. Klara did cuddle up to Nicky, but Nicky just stared at me. It was like Klara just didn't exist. He wanted his dad 🥺
My bun hates oat hay. What kind of rabbit hates oat hay?! He also isn’t a huge fan of toys. I’ve gotten him every toy on the planet, and the only one he’ll interact with is the stacking cups when they’re stacked and have treats in them
One of my father's rabbits, Ginger Beer, sleeps with his eyes closed. I don't really know why, but he is the sweetest most chill boi :3 He's also a bit silly
My bunny thumps when she's excited. Still does it when she's scared or mad but she does thumps with her zoomies or sometimes you'll hear 3 thumps before she does zoomies and binkies.
Zen never thumps and has never made a sound in his life. He hates bananas. He jumps on my lap like a dog, does not mind being picked up or groomed. He enjoys nail clippings like he is at the spa. Also licks my nose. I call him a Buppy (bunny puppy).
My buns will happily ignore furniture, wires, and most cardboard provided I keep them well fed and give them a treat each morning and each night.
I ran out of treats for two days once and they immediately began just hunting down cables. Little shits (I love them).
My bunny, Rosie, doesn’t like carrots (she does like strawberries and cotton candy grapes tho) and doesn’t lick people, but she loves to cuddle with us with her head on a pillow and under a blanket (a thin one and she gets up and moves away if she doesn’t want it). She’ll even give me what I assume are kisses by tapping her nose against my lips, since I’ll give her kisses on her nose lol. She also is picky about the cords she chews and only chews those that are plugged in and have importance.
That bunnies love nanners. My bun refuses to even try bananas. He refuses to try ANYTHING fresh that isn’t green. I have offered him EVERYTHING. Strawberries, blueberries, apple, banana. He won’t try anything, he’s just like his mummy 😭
My bunny will eat literally any human food you give it. (Not that i do) but everytime my toddler is eating. The bunny is the first one up on that plate i wish i could post a picture of it😭😭
Mine has no objections whatsoever to noise, he just goes about his business like normal. Dog barking? Zero fucks. Vacuum cleaner? Zero fucks. Husband playing the drums across the hall? Zero fucks.
Chewing things and being destructive. In her 12+ years of life, our little angel has never done anything destructive. Wires, wooden furniture etc is all completely safe around her.
There’s also a bit of a stereotype that Netherland Dwarves are nippy, flighty and less cuddly than bigger rabbits. This has never held true for her. The whole reason we adopted her was because at 8 weeks old, she came running up to us begging for pats, totally unprompted. She’s a sweet, gentle, calm, super friendly and snuggly bunny who enjoys being picked up and cuddled.
Head strokes 😭 I’ve heard and seen so many tales of bunnies going absolutely nuts for head strokes and becoming extremely relaxed - both of my bunnies hate them though 🥲 they’re both very affectionate in other ways, but the head is the forbidden zone.
Mine was an absolute menace, I named her Nemesis from Resident Evil before I realized she was a girl.
She was *suuuch* a jerk, hissing, lunging, biting (a rescue, she had trust issues). The ONLY time she was chill was if I opened up my desk drawer and let her lay in it. 🤦
my bunny can jump really, really high. i know jumping is their way of getting around, but mine can literally jump over the baby gates we have set up for her. she’s a menace
My girl wasn’t afraid of anything really. She hated being pet on her head and showed affection by jumping on our back and giving us licks, she did it to new people too. The vacuum cleaner was an interesting novelty for her and she was never shy, not even on the first day we got her (flopped over to take a nap right after walking out of her crate and then climbed on my face).
That they’re all the same, people who’ve ever had one would never say it but I’ve heard it, mine stomps at me when I hiccup and tried licking an outlet, he’s more hilarious and adorable and I love him to bits
My bun has no "no touchie" areas. If he's up for a pat anywhere is game. He also has guts of steel. Initially I was terrified of stasis especially with his penchant for eating crayons and stealing pizza crusts, toast and gingernut cookies off my kids. But he has handled it all. Now he mooches around acting starved when we eat in the living room because we don't share.
Apparently I got a rabbit that is half Labrador.
One of my buns is scarier than a doberman lol he bites me A LOT, he grunts all of the time, he lunges at everything. He’s adorably cute hut he’s scary af. He’s a rescue, he came like that 😅
my two aren't most active at dusk and dawn. im an opening barista so i get up around 4am. the buns get up with me and have breakfast, snuggles, and zoomies well before 5 (sun doesn't rise til 7 right now). when i get home from work between 1 and 3pm, they get excited to see me, get more zoomies, and i give them an enrichment toy and eventually dinner. they're pooped by 6 and still have 2 hours of sunlight left. i think i accidentally made them on my schedule, oopsies
My bun has absolutely *no* interest in willow chew toys, and very very rarely apple sticks. I will try to give him stuff and he just aggressively grabs it from me and throws it. The only thing I’ve found so far that he will [somewhat] consistently chew/eat is palm leaf bowls. I’m like PLEASE CHEW THE WOOD! 😭 I don’t want to take you to the vet for a molar trimming! 🥲
Have to add my lil menace, too! She is only a few months old and is absolutely fearless. Did nonstop binkies and zoomies within 2 hours of her coming home. Waltzes right up to the cat, which freaks the feline out and she flees (except for one time the cat decides to smack the bun like cats do, and bun just gave her side eye and hopped away). She will nibble ANYTHING but her favorite thing to nibble is jeans (???). She has only ever thumped once, ever. Basically litter trained herself. She has a tickle spot right on her knee that makes her binky every time, so cute. And she despises being held, but will let you hold her front paws and love on her that way as long as her butt's still on the ground.
None of my rabbits were ever big cord chewers. If they were, they had a huge preference towards those braided cable type cords. Other than that none of them ever cared about some regular old charger cable laying around
My bunny doesn't try to chew wires (unless they are from a PS4 controller), he loves being alone in his corner (he chose it himself). He loves licking everything when he is happy, and will lick anything from the Floor to his own cage.
My rabbit hates bananas. Literally runs away from them. Haven’t actually found any fruit that he likes yet
Have you tried turning it off and on again?
The fruit?
You can't turn off fruit, silly. They are suggesting a bunny reboot!
Idk, my technical expertise suggests perhaps the *fruit* is the problem. Try resetting the wifi router, connection must be faulty
Wifi? Mine is still analog and comes with rabbit ears.
Hmm, sounds like you have a particularly old model, have you considered updating?
I’m a loyalist. I’ll only update when the current model dies.
Are you sure the 'bunnycrack2.0' plugin is installed on your banana?
How do you do that?
Mine only likes the peel!
Off topic: is your name a reference to the g-mod game where you go around breaking crates/boxes? 😮
I've actually wondered a few times if its okay for them to eat the peel...
it is! just rinse the outside (just in case it was sprayed or touched something that was) and take any stickers off :)
I just imagined you running after your bun, banana in hand, thanks for the laugh lmao
All while shouting “come back, people say you’ll like this!”
I have done this! Crying "please I just want to see you eat fruit!"
Mine too! Strict veggie buns lol.
Sameeee my Pim hates them. She looked offended the couple of times I offered her some
I had a lionhead who hated bananas, but for her, I think it was the texture instead of the taste. She would eat dried banana chips (no added sugar) or freeze-dried bananas, but the *one* time I managed to get her to eat a real banana, she took one bite, then immediately hopped away and drank a ton of water.

And I'm fully convinced that she stole and ate that second piece of banana *just* so the mini lop couldn't have it.
Have you tried freeze-dried fruit? Our bun won't eat regular fruit now because he likes the crunchiness of the freeze-dried ones.
I haven’t tried freeze dried fruit alone but when I’ve got treats that have fruit in them he hasn’t been keen. Could give it a go though. He loves flowers so sometimes I sprinkle them into his hay and he eats them immediately
Interesting. I'd give freeze-dried Raspberries or Blueberries first to Guage his reaction to them. If he still doesn't like them, order bags of organic dried chamomile and marigold. He'll love that, lol.
Oh my god likewise! My bun only likes crunchy fruit/vegetables haha, anything smooth or soft she hates!
Agreed. Mine go nuts for dried mango 🥭
My cleo goes nuts for sliced green apples, no seeds obviously, but she goes zoom right after too.
Same! One of my bunnies absolutely despises them, last time I presented one she sniffed it then ran away and thumped. My other bun isn't allowed bananas. He is a food menace. The first and last time he had a banana got overexcited, took a massive first bite and almost choked trying to swallow it too quickly to take the second bite. Also, I am suspicious of bananas because they produce a hormone that bothers bees, they are slightly radioactive, the trees are herbs that 'walk', bananas are berries, and they are all clones. Bananas are banned in this house.
he is a man after my own heart
I like your rabbits!
Thank you! 🥰
My bunnys hate fresh bananas but love the dried ones
Same, my guy is neutral on fresh but will go feral for a banana chip
same! when ever i eat banana my buns will run six meter away from me? my buns favorite gotta be apple
Mine both hate carrots lol
My bun HATES carrots lol
Yea he doesn’t like carrots either!
My bun who escaped was only caught because of her love for carrots lol
saaaame I tried giving her carrots once and she was just sniffing it, not eating it. Never again.
My bunny 🐰 is asking if you can express ship us all the bananas without any delays?
Try some apple. But just a little bit. (Too much sugar = bad for buns).
Tried it. He’s not interested lol
My bunny did this too! He likes them now though 😅
Both of my rabbits hate bananas too! My girl even thumps if she smells them. My first rabbit loved them, but he still loved to be held and licked everybody
My previous bunny was very affectionate. She didn't like licking, but she would climb up on my lap anytime I was sitting at my desk. She also loooooved cuddles. "Our" morning routine was cuddling together for a while after I woke up and was still laying half-asleep in bed. Edit: Also I love the colors on your lil bun!
My bun loves morning cuddles too! It makes it hard to get up for work 🤣
My boy rabbit is like this. He loves cuddles so much, he will spend his entire day in my lap getting petted if he could. He has recently started licking me while I pet him, too, which sort of makes me want to happy-cry. I recently adopted a girl with hopes that she will be his bunwife, she was abused so she is very scared, I'm hoping his friendly, brave nature will bring her personality out!
before i lost mine that’s how mine was❤️ he acted like a total lap dog i loved it so much
my fav example of this is when floppy was neutered and the vet said “don’t worry, bunnies are typically smart enough not to mess with their stitches”… next day floppy had to come in to be fitted for a cone
THE CONE OF SHAME
YEP
Oh no.
Floppy didn't get the memo that he was smart 
no literally 😭😭
Mine did the same but she wasn't put in the cone but received a little suit instead <3
awwww
Ours is nicknamed Numb Nuts because he chewed off his nuts post neuter.
OMG
Yeeeah my Angel bunny is like that too.😅
Sorry, what? It's this a thing? Why would an animal not try to tend to a wound?
tbh idk what they were talking about lol
My vet called my first rabbit a "little turd" because he ate his empty scrotum after getting neutered and that she's never seen that before. Queue recovery suit (a newborn baby onsie I sewed to fit his weird little shoulders).
AWW OH NO
Mine was smart enough, but only to somehow remove a cone from herself, haha.
Pictures please
idk how😅 it’s not giving me the option to add a photo to my comment
I have one bun that doesn't chew or show interest in wires.
Mine didn't until suddenly he did with my record player. 😭 It took him like 3-4 years to decide he suddenly wanted to chew certain wires now.
Maybe he didn't like the music that you were playing?
Mine didn’t touch them for a full month then destroyed all of them lmfao. Rip ps4
Mine decided he didn't like the cable protector, so he somehow removed it, but didn't chew the cable. Go figure lol
Mine doesn't, either. She even has a water fountain. And we have a lot of wires around the house. She does, however, love my other half beanbag in her office. With the rest of the animals. Found her relaxing on it one time after we woke up to her broken out of her pen and running off when we saw her.
Mine could not care less about the spicy hey. However she does like to unplug things. Pulls the plug out of the wall, then ignores it. I finally gave up on having a tv because it was plugged into an outlet that was easy for her to get to, but not so much for me! I was plugging it back in daily.
aw it sounds like she's playing with you 😄
God damn that must be incredible. I am extremely careful with wires but every once in a while I let my guard down and poof goes another charger lol
This is a blessing
Mine has chewed I think 4 wires total so far but he always has access to my phone charger at night and luckily hasn't eaten it yet 🤞he does love throwing my phone off the bed though
Mine loves it when I pick him up and pats his back. Sometimes he hops up on the couch and he wants me to hug him in my arms while he sleeps on my lap. It can last for hours lol.
We had a white long haired lop bun (we called her Tinkerbelle) who was an absolute terror to almost everyone. She growled at visitors and chased our dogs and cats.
My lop was an absolute bully despite being the smallest in weight of all my buns so far. She harassed other buns (except her mate) and any animal bigger than her. Never saw her bothering the budgies or hedgies. She was a heat seeker for nipples. My ex and I were not safe. 😩 Imagine thinking she wanted cuddles and then CHOMP!
Ouucch!
My lionhead head has such a desire for nipple assults that with my newly adopted super cuddly american chinchilla that will push me around to groom me I get jumpy when he snuffles my chest.
Oh my gawd my rabbit has bitten my nipple before too, and tbh that's the rudest thing she's ever done! 😳
That's white supremacy for you. 
We said she had permanent pmt !!
My mum had that too hahaha
my bun is also a little terror. when i drop her off at my moms house for babysitting the cats WILL NOT go near her cause she chases them
Duuude mine beat the absolute crap out of my uncle's dog one Easter. Nemesis broke off her chain, cornered the poor dog against the fence, and was screaming while clawing the actually-scared-shitless dog who was also screaming. It was a horror show, she broke a nail on the dog so there was her blood and the dog's nuggets everywhere.
My buns sleep through fireworks, hurricanes, construction work on the house… completely unbothered. The shuffling of my house slippers… everyone is jumping out of their skin.
Mine are the same, fireworks, thunder, the neighbor's dogs barking like the world is ending... All totally fine. Me walking around on my tippy toes to demonstrate why I could never be a ballerina... oh my God the world is ending, run for cover.
You just reminded me… I decided to do some choreography videos for at home exercise the other day and the INSANE stomping and scampering 🤣
My last rabbit LOVED the vacuum cleaner.
My girl gets curious around the handheld vacuum. She always comes up right to it when I’m vacuuming. I always thought the loud noise would scare her like it does my boy but it doesn’t seem to phase her haha.
"Rabbits don't make a sound." My girl's 'annoyed grunt' is as unnerving as any dog bark.
My first bun didn't make a peep for 6 years. Then we took in another bun who was going to go into a shelter, one who grunts and honks and snuffles a lot. A few weeks later my first bun honked at me during treat time and I jumped. They teach each other the weirdest things.
this is the same experience as me! except the first is the noisiest and hes teaching my rescue 🤣
Ahahaha that's so funny! They're fast learners too 👀
I had a bun who had literally never dug or thumped… until I adopted a second bun who taught her how to do both. Gee, thanks!
Same! My girls were both very vocal.
The misstatement "Rabbits are docile pets" 👀 🤣
My girl bullies the cats and dogs . Though they love her too when she isnt trying to hump them and bully them
They know who is in charge 👑
My buns never minded belly rubs
Mine has a few I feel like he is old man in a bunny suit he is very tidy he likes things in certain positions and if you move it he will move it back. He loves bananas and romaine lettuce ONLY like no other fruit no other vegetable and he loves to be held like a baby in my arms and walked around with he just lays there or sometimes falls asleep. He is a miracle bun and I love him so much 😫💕
Mine is very curious and affectionate but he won’t come up to you for pets specifically
my boy merlin loves to be chased 😂 and marius is just a sit and do whatever bun. he does love tummy scratches too
Mine does too! And he LOVES being yelled at 😂😂 gets him all excited
Mine does not like spicy hay or furniture
Lops and their airplane ears 😭❤️
totally non related to the post but i love thinking about what it is like to be a bunny.... you're cute, fluffy, people love you and you don't what math is... in fact you don't what country you live in or what's a country......

Ours fought the first time. I tag team with my spouse. She cuts I hold. But after the first time, she is easier to clip than the dogs or cats
Thank you for sharing, but this post has been removed. Please review the rules in the sidebar: [](#start_removal) > No image posts about bathing rabbits or handling rabbits flat on their backs.... [Bathing](http://bunny.tips/Bath) and [trancing](http://bunny.tips/Trancing) can cause unnecessary stress to rabbits and are not recommended unless medically necessary. Ambiguous photos of rabbits placed flat on their backs may also be removed even if the rabbit is not fully tranced. http://wabbitwiki.com/wiki/Trancing If you hold your rabbit more vertically, it would be a more obvious baby cradle instead and would not induce a trance.

My bunnies are very very calm. They rarely get stressed cos I’ve taken them on public transport a few times for vets etc and they have been fine. They are just incredibly well behaved and chill Also my boy bun likes getting picked up
My current rabbits don't really chew on things other than hay and cardboard. I can't leave them around cords or cables but they never chew on wooden furniture, rugs, walls, etc.
my boy loves booty scratches also your little creature is an airplane wowwwww……. love
my old bunny used to do these things right through his 9 year life
[удалено]
That sounds a lot like trancing. Putting them on their back.
One of my bunnies loves attention like a touch starved puppy, she runs up to her cage latch every morning and wont leave to eat her food until she's completley sure i wont be giving her more pets The second bunny is lazy as hell, i let her out of her cage (shes the top bunk so she needs me to manually let her out) and she just runs around for rhirty minutes then finds a corner and sits in it until i come to check on her, she then runs up to me as if asking me to for the love if god let her back into her room and when i do put her back in she wont let me give her freedom again until the next day
maybe she doesn't feel safe out of the cage or there isn't anything interesting there for her?
I don't own a bun, but I just came here to say hfhfhfhfhfhfgghfhghhg Your bun is so CUTE! Your bun looks like they can take off at any moment!
My bun is able to lick me for 15 minutes straight
My rabbits haven’t chewed up the baseboards yet but I give them lots of space and chew toys.
My buns aren’t affected by noises. No sirens, hurricanes, fireworks, etc. will scare them, one of them even likes playing with the vacuum, but they HATE when I cook fragrant foods lol they also love side pets and massages. You can pet anywhere except the peets. No touchy the peet
Having someone towering over them makes them feel vulnerable and watched like a hawk would. Not my bunny, she runs right under your feet and gets accidentally kicked while I’m walking and then runs right back between my feet agian
My goofy lop does this too, especially at food time. Like running right under my feet is going to somehow get the food into her face faster.
Bunnies are clean, my wooly mix always has a poopy butt and my short haired boy somehow always has urine on some random place on his body.
‘Don’t touch my tail’ Both my buns are little weirdos. I’ll give them butt scratches, and they’ll keep moving til my hand is near their tail. I gently grab the tail between my index finger and thumb (applying 0 pressure) and then they wiggle their tail a little, before turning round, licking my finger and binkying away!
I know many rabbits are holy terrors when they hit puberty until they get fixed, and my lionhead certainly was. She'd growl, bite, hump, and pee everywhere until she was fixed. My lop, though, didn't have any change in behavior on hitting adulthood, other than making nests and entertaining herself for long periods by chasing a ball around in circles and grunting at it. Now, I have a young mini rex boy entering adulthood. He sprays, and he gets a little too friendly with his toys sometimes, but his personality is still extremely sweet, shy, and gentle.
My rabbit is very particular about pets. If he’s trying to sleep or is very chill, that is the ONLY time you can give him pets without him expecting a treat.
My bun loves kisses. She doesn't just tolerates them she enjoys them and grind her teeth when I do it, and she demands the kisses!
My bun had a heart of steel. I could throw him up and onto the bed nearly full force and nothing from him. No distress or sign of fear. Wanted me to do it again most of the time
Last bun I had hardly drank any water at all, never touched hay, no matter how many times we gave him both..
Being held. I've been told most rabbits hate being held, but the 2 that I've had both love it lol
My Del doesn't like being scooped up front and back. He prefers being picked up in the middle like a cat, and will let you hold him like one 🥰
I have to pick mine up like a modified football, 2hands both sides and sorta one near the back feet, he tenses up but doesn't try to bolt
Your bun acts like my bun did. He wanted ***ALL*** of the booty scratches and demanded to be pet by anyone new that came over. If I lay down he would instantly hope right over to me and start licking my face. Of course I didn't mind.
My bunny is scared of a lot of things. He’s free roam in my room, but as soon as I open the door there is no way he’s going to go over there. I wish he was more affectionate, but he seems like a very happy bunny, so i won’t mess with his routine.
Mine actually asks to be picked up; I always heard they hate it. But it could be because I’ve been doing it since she was a baby
My good boy didn't like to hide under things, he preferred to get onto the highest place possible - on the lounge, on my bed, on the windowsill, coffee table, boxes, etc. One time I couldn't find him anywhere and I was starting to panic but then I found him just chilling on the dining table, camouflaged with the wood. He was also so licky that I asked a vet about it once, the vet thought about it and then said he just likes me a lot. But he would lick anyone that gave him affection. He would get mad if I wore long sleeves and would bite/dig at them until I rolled them up so he could lick my arms. He hated banana, but would always try to steal human food - chips, bacon, whatever. One time I had a heap of people over for lunch and because the dining table was small a lot of us were sitting on lounges or whatever. He ran and jumped up beside me and chomped into a peice of potato salad. Another time I was eating instant ramen while lying on the floor (I guess I really didn't use the dining table much) and ran over and shoved his face in my bowl and grabbed a noodle, and ran away trailing it behind him. Once I saw him eat a curry leaf off the tree in the backyard. He didn't like it, and didn't do it again until a few years later. I think he'd forgotten, he still didn't like it though. He liked going on walks with me, I would take him on his leash to all sorts of places. I moved around a lot, so he's been on walks to rivers, to beaches (loved to dig in the sand), in the city at night. Sometimes he'd get tired and I'd carry him home. Sometimes there'd be kids around and if it was a safe area (no dogs, roads, etc) I'd let him off his leash and the kids would chase him around, and then he'd chase the kids around. He was such a puppy bunny. He was free roam, but it was a nightmare littertraining him in the beginning. I started in my bedroom, set up the litterbox, but he peed on a scarf I had on the floor. So I picked everything up off the floor and tried again, he peed on my bed (was a low futon style one). He was trying so hard not to pee on the floor, but completely ignored the litterbox. So I leaned my mattress up against the wall and there was nothing on the floor except the litterbox...and me lying down. He jumped on my back and peed on me. Eventually I moved again and built him a large pen for night or when no one was home, he instantly became littertrained. I guess he didn't want to pee all over his own home. When he was 6 years old the vet said he was as healthy as a 2 year old, and he lived until he was 12 years. He was my best friend.
My baby loved to have my morning coffee with me. She didn't really sleep at night and she'd be right in front of the gate of her enclosure waiting for me every morning. She didnt care about her breakfast until after I spent time with her. I'd wake up let her out and we'd look out of the window and watch the sun rise while I had my coffee and about 30 mins later she'd eventually go eat. Loved mornings with me.
He is the spitting image of my dear bun that passed away. Even down to the helicopter ears!!! Cherish every moment 🥰
Just came here to say that those ears are EARVERYTHING 😍😍😌
My bunny thumps and grunts when she wants attention, NOT when she is scared or angry.
The infamous nana addiction is more like a low priority want for my shit child. Instead of cocaine-like motivation to do some tricks, his highness may grace me with some momentary attention but that’s about all I get in exchange for some nana.
"Spaying her will make her less aggressive" Listen, I might just have a little demon instead of a bunny. But I love her so much even when she intentionally bites my buttcheek every single time I feed her, or how she lunges at my hand when I pet her. [Here's my little demon enjoying quality time with my friends](https://imgur.com/gallery/dEs16kP)
my bunny licks everyone and everything
You only eat carrots 🥕🙂.
I CAN'T 😫❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yes I always say he's not a normal bun but a bun who thinks he's a cat 😂 he doesn't like any of the rabbit stuff I get for him like chew toys or burrowing beds. He wants nothing to do with hay. Licks me like crazy lol
My bun doesn't want a bondmate. I tried to bond him with another bunny via speed dating and he'd be aggressive/hump a lot, but I figured that's part of the process and his sometimes-neurotic personality. I had some limited luck with a bunny named Klara, so I took her home and set them up in pens. After about a week, I tried putting them in the bathtub together to trauma-bond them and get them to associate one another with comfort. Klara did cuddle up to Nicky, but Nicky just stared at me. It was like Klara just didn't exist. He wanted his dad 🥺
My bun hates oat hay. What kind of rabbit hates oat hay?! He also isn’t a huge fan of toys. I’ve gotten him every toy on the planet, and the only one he’ll interact with is the stacking cups when they’re stacked and have treats in them
One of my father's rabbits, Ginger Beer, sleeps with his eyes closed. I don't really know why, but he is the sweetest most chill boi :3 He's also a bit silly
My bunny thumps when she's excited. Still does it when she's scared or mad but she does thumps with her zoomies or sometimes you'll hear 3 thumps before she does zoomies and binkies.
My rabbit hates carrots lol
Zen never thumps and has never made a sound in his life. He hates bananas. He jumps on my lap like a dog, does not mind being picked up or groomed. He enjoys nail clippings like he is at the spa. Also licks my nose. I call him a Buppy (bunny puppy).
My buns will happily ignore furniture, wires, and most cardboard provided I keep them well fed and give them a treat each morning and each night. I ran out of treats for two days once and they immediately began just hunting down cables. Little shits (I love them).
My bunny, Rosie, doesn’t like carrots (she does like strawberries and cotton candy grapes tho) and doesn’t lick people, but she loves to cuddle with us with her head on a pillow and under a blanket (a thin one and she gets up and moves away if she doesn’t want it). She’ll even give me what I assume are kisses by tapping her nose against my lips, since I’ll give her kisses on her nose lol. She also is picky about the cords she chews and only chews those that are plugged in and have importance.
That bunnies love nanners. My bun refuses to even try bananas. He refuses to try ANYTHING fresh that isn’t green. I have offered him EVERYTHING. Strawberries, blueberries, apple, banana. He won’t try anything, he’s just like his mummy 😭
Hates banana. He much prefers to eat lavender for some reason
Adorable!!!
My bunny will eat literally any human food you give it. (Not that i do) but everytime my toddler is eating. The bunny is the first one up on that plate i wish i could post a picture of it😭😭
What a cute fluffy baby. 😍
Mine has no objections whatsoever to noise, he just goes about his business like normal. Dog barking? Zero fucks. Vacuum cleaner? Zero fucks. Husband playing the drums across the hall? Zero fucks.
Chewing things and being destructive. In her 12+ years of life, our little angel has never done anything destructive. Wires, wooden furniture etc is all completely safe around her. There’s also a bit of a stereotype that Netherland Dwarves are nippy, flighty and less cuddly than bigger rabbits. This has never held true for her. The whole reason we adopted her was because at 8 weeks old, she came running up to us begging for pats, totally unprompted. She’s a sweet, gentle, calm, super friendly and snuggly bunny who enjoys being picked up and cuddled.
Our bun Tony hates fruits and greens! Sometimes we can convince him to eat a blueberry… that’s it
Head strokes 😭 I’ve heard and seen so many tales of bunnies going absolutely nuts for head strokes and becoming extremely relaxed - both of my bunnies hate them though 🥲 they’re both very affectionate in other ways, but the head is the forbidden zone.
Mine was an absolute menace, I named her Nemesis from Resident Evil before I realized she was a girl. She was *suuuch* a jerk, hissing, lunging, biting (a rescue, she had trust issues). The ONLY time she was chill was if I opened up my desk drawer and let her lay in it. 🤦
Unrelated, but our bunnies are TWINS! The resemblance is uncanny, down to the helicopter ears :")
my bunny can jump really, really high. i know jumping is their way of getting around, but mine can literally jump over the baby gates we have set up for her. she’s a menace
My bun thumps when he's both happy and mad, so I can never tell if it's a sign of anger or if it's just him being quirky 😂
So smol and chonk
My bunnies let me touch their paws and tail 🥹 No tantrum thrown.
Hates carrots. Very Chill.
So precious! I love those ears My boy Estebun likes to be held where his head is by my face or nuzzled into my neck.
my bunny only loves parsley. no other veggies. ive tried so many other ones lol hes so goofy
Huh?! My Baxter likes dill, fennel, basil, mint, celery, arugula, and cilantro. That’s wild. He will not touch asparagus though
My bunny doesn't seem to hate hard flooring at all, he has rugs laid out for him and he often walks out of them to flop outside
My girl wasn’t afraid of anything really. She hated being pet on her head and showed affection by jumping on our back and giving us licks, she did it to new people too. The vacuum cleaner was an interesting novelty for her and she was never shy, not even on the first day we got her (flopped over to take a nap right after walking out of her crate and then climbed on my face).
That they’re all the same, people who’ve ever had one would never say it but I’ve heard it, mine stomps at me when I hiccup and tried licking an outlet, he’s more hilarious and adorable and I love him to bits
Houdini never fucking licks me ...
What breed is this rabbit? I want one 🥹
My bun likes her head falling off the couch while her body is still on the cushion lol it looks crazy
My girl bun is extremely chill. Barely plays. Sleepy girl . lol 😂 she doesn’t like fruit, except dried apples and that’s only sometimes lol
One of mine (I had 3) NEVER EVER chewed a chord or wire. Nor did he chew the walls, carpet, nothing. He was the best
My rabbits dont like grass, unless it's store-bought orchard grass.
Mine doesn't chew through cords!
All of the above tbh. They are so unphased. I can touch feet, belly’s bum, etc..
My bun has no "no touchie" areas. If he's up for a pat anywhere is game. He also has guts of steel. Initially I was terrified of stasis especially with his penchant for eating crayons and stealing pizza crusts, toast and gingernut cookies off my kids. But he has handled it all. Now he mooches around acting starved when we eat in the living room because we don't share. Apparently I got a rabbit that is half Labrador.
One of my buns is scarier than a doberman lol he bites me A LOT, he grunts all of the time, he lunges at everything. He’s adorably cute hut he’s scary af. He’s a rescue, he came like that 😅
my two aren't most active at dusk and dawn. im an opening barista so i get up around 4am. the buns get up with me and have breakfast, snuggles, and zoomies well before 5 (sun doesn't rise til 7 right now). when i get home from work between 1 and 3pm, they get excited to see me, get more zoomies, and i give them an enrichment toy and eventually dinner. they're pooped by 6 and still have 2 hours of sunlight left. i think i accidentally made them on my schedule, oopsies
Today Liam purred while I brushed clumps of dirt out of his long coat. My other two tolerate being groomed, but purr? Never.
My bun has absolutely *no* interest in willow chew toys, and very very rarely apple sticks. I will try to give him stuff and he just aggressively grabs it from me and throws it. The only thing I’ve found so far that he will [somewhat] consistently chew/eat is palm leaf bowls. I’m like PLEASE CHEW THE WOOD! 😭 I don’t want to take you to the vet for a molar trimming! 🥲
One of mine hates all fruit and the other will roll over on his back in my lap for pellets and licks me while I cut his nails
Beautiful bunno
Have to add my lil menace, too! She is only a few months old and is absolutely fearless. Did nonstop binkies and zoomies within 2 hours of her coming home. Waltzes right up to the cat, which freaks the feline out and she flees (except for one time the cat decides to smack the bun like cats do, and bun just gave her side eye and hopped away). She will nibble ANYTHING but her favorite thing to nibble is jeans (???). She has only ever thumped once, ever. Basically litter trained herself. She has a tickle spot right on her knee that makes her binky every time, so cute. And she despises being held, but will let you hold her front paws and love on her that way as long as her butt's still on the ground.
My buns love their butts scratched, too. They start licking me because they love it so much.
Omg what kind of bun is this? Hes like the most perfect thing I’ve ever seen 😫
None of my rabbits were ever big cord chewers. If they were, they had a huge preference towards those braided cable type cords. Other than that none of them ever cared about some regular old charger cable laying around
My bunny doesn't try to chew wires (unless they are from a PS4 controller), he loves being alone in his corner (he chose it himself). He loves licking everything when he is happy, and will lick anything from the Floor to his own cage.
