Rabbits have a language all their own.
Below are some tips on interpreting your bunnies hops, kicks and grunts.

 

 

Sniffing
          May be annoyed or just talking to you

Grunts
          Usually angry, watch out or you could get bit!

Shrill scream
          Hurt or dying

Circling your feet
          Usually indicates sexual behavior. He/She's in love.

Spraying
          Males that are not neutered will mark female rabbits in this manner as well as their territory. Females will also spray.

Chinning
          Their chin contains scent glands, so they rub their chin on items to indicate that they belong to them. Same as a cat rubbing it's forehead on people and objects.

False pregnancy
          Usually just unspayed females may build a nest & pull hair from their chest & stomach to line the nest. They may even stop eating as rabbits do the day before they give birth.

Bunny hop/dance
          A sign of pure joy & happiness!

Begging
          Rabbits are worse than dogs about begging, especially for sweets. Beware of giving the rabbit treats as overweight rabbits are not as healthy as trim rabbits.

Territory droppings
          Droppings that are not in a pile, but are scattered, are signs that this territory belongs to the rabbit. This will often occur upon entering a new environment. If another rabbit lives in the same house this may always be a nuisance.

Playing
          Rabbits like to push or toss objects around. They may also race madly around the house, jump on and off of the couch and act like a kid that's had too much sugar.

Don't touch my stuff
          Rabbits often are displeased when you rearrange their cage as you clean. They are creatures of habit and when they get things just right, they like them to remain that way.

Stomping
          He's frightened, mad or trying to tell you that there's danger (in his opinion).

Teeth Grinding
          Indicates contentment, like a cats purr. Loud grinding can indicate pain.
