What's wrong with my rabbit?!?!?!?

I think your rabbit is acting like this because she has been moved to a new place and she has a new owner. She might be a tad homesick.

I think you should just sit in the playpen with her and wait for her to come to you and carry on petting her.

You could also try putting her on her lap and grooming her ( brushing her hair).

Sounds like every thing is fine. She's letting you pet her and give her treats. Just work on trust and bonding by sitting inside her pen and continuing to talk and pet her.

Unfortunately rabbits are not "snuggly" pets, and actually become fearful when being held, especially off the ground. Some may learn to tolerate it it without struggling much, but no rabbit likes it. It completely goes against their nature.

Keep the affection on her terms, with her feet firmly planted on the ground. Try laying on your back and enjoy as she comes up and sniffs at your face; she may even get bold enough to jump on you. Don't do anything. Let her stay in control. Try gently laying your check on her head for snuggles as long as she is easily able to get away. She may or may not like it (rabbit pairs will sit with their heads touching).

You can and should work on picking her up and holding her safely as her life may depend on it one day, but don't look at it as part of your bonding. Give it a little time, and then just start picking her up for a moment, then letting her go with praise and treats. She may be angry (and will let you know with a well-placed foot thump), but she probably won't hold a grudge for too long.

As for the drinking - if she's getting sufficient quantities of fresh vegetables, that will provide her with much of her water intake.

If she is binkying then there is more than likely nothing physically wrong with her. Try just sitting in her playpen with her while she is playing and totally leave her alone... rabbits are naturally curious animals and she will eventually come to see what you are doing... let her come to you before you go to her... dont try to pick her up for about a week... just let her be with you on her own... also make sure you are picking her up properly as you can easily cause pain to rabbits by picking them up wrong.

And to "Southern Belle" you don't know what you're talking about when you say that rabbits don't like to held... That might be true with some rabbits but my baby "Pooper" absolutely loves to be held and cradled like a baby. He actually gets depressed if you don't hold him enough. You just have to be patient and let your rabbit trust you.

To simply reply your query - no. I grew up in an discipline wherein consuming rabbit, squirrels, possum, raccoon, deer (and sure, we did have pork, beef and chickens - I used to be raised on a nation farm). It used to be a culture for me and nonetheless every now and then consume those forms of meat. I have observed that the majority town men and women (who've simplest eaten hoof, fin, or chook) feel that consuming something else (meat) is fallacious, or barbaric and won't even check out it. Do now not push her - simply allow her order what she likes, and also you order the frog legs!

Rabbits DO NOT like to be held in general. Their only instint is to run and when you pick them up you are taking that away the more you try to pick her up and hold her while she is trying to get away the wildier she'll get you can also stress her out and give her a heartattack.

It is nothing to be worried about, your probably not with her 24/7 so she may be glugging down water in the small time spaces and gaps you are not present. Even though she may not be pregnant, has she been spayed? You probably may need to adjust her diet a little.. and handle her a little more. Don't worry about it..

Hope this helps :-)

Rabbits are prey animals. To them being picked up is a precursor to being eaten ad so they panic.

I don't pick up my bunnies unless I absolutey have to.

How do you pick them up? They tend to be happier if they have their feet against something solid. So pick her up and put her up against your chest as quickly as possible. Or have her resting against your arm.
