Rabbit Behavioural Problems

Biting
• Give a yelp and jump to let the bunny know that it's not acceptable.
• Continue to cuddle and handle.
• Wear adequate clothing and gloves if necessary.
• Pick your rabbit up from behind the head, rather than approaching from the front. This is less threatening.
• Biting may be only a stage which the bunny grows out of.
• Neutering may be a solution.
• Some rabbits develop a dislike for a particular person, whom they see as a threat.
• Pain, fear, hormones, and territory protection, will affect a rabbit’s personality.
• Consider the cause and ways you may be able to solve the problem

De-sexing takes at least 3 weeks to change behaviour and for the bunny to become infertile.
