What does my rabbit's behaviour mean?
A rabbit's body language can be subtle, therefore it's not always easy to understand how a rabbit's feeling. A good place to start is with a rabbit's ears. If they are close together, facing upwards and pointing outwards, the rabbit is likely to be relaxed and happy. Alternatively, a worried rabbit's ears will be flattened against their back. Other indicators are a rabbit's eyes and their body posture. Additionally, their behaviour can indicate how they are feeling, for example, a rabbit may be anxious if they are hidin]

Rabbits body language can be subtle, meaning that it's not always obvious how they're feeling. Use this guide to help you recognise important body language signals.

If you're concerned about your rabbit's behaviour speak to your vet first who may then refer you to an animal behaviourist.
