Understanding your Rabbit's Habits

What's inside?

I start by introducing bunny body language - the subtle postures and body movements that give away what your rabbit is thinking and feeling. If you want to interact with a rabbit without causing offense or being nipped then you need to know how to tell the difference between a happy rabbit and one ready to attack.

Over a hundred illustrations!

There is plenty of action too, including digging, eating, washing, pooping, napping, exploring, marking, aggression, and binkies. To help you understand these rabbit behaviours better I've put them into context. Our rabbits might be spoilt pets, but their ancestors were wild animals and that has a big impact on how they behave. Once you take into consideration how a wild rabbit lives, it is much easier to understand the motivations behind some of our pet rabbit's odd habits.

It's not just about understanding rabbits; it is also about making their lives better. An environment that accommodates your rabbit's behavioural needs is essential to their welfare. Rabbits that don't have the opportunity to express their natural behaviour patterns can end up bored and frustrated, and are more likely to be destructive and aggressive. There are tips scattered throughout the book to help with this, and a whole section on environmental enrichment to finish up.
