House rabbits may sit motionless and stare at the human when they want attention/food. That means it has sensed danger and is assessing the situation. If a rabbit does this while being sniffed by another animal or touched by a human, it really doesn’t want the attention and you should let it be and/or remove the other animal.įreezing: Sometimes a rabbit will simply freeze and breathe heavily, with the eyes wide open and the head held high. During the bonding process, it means that the rabbit submits to the other rabbit. House rabbits may thump to demand food or cuddles.ĭucking: When a rabbit ducks and makes itself flat, with the ears pressed against the body and the eyes wide open, it is highly uncomfortable. Your rabbit may also be very angry and aggressive and warn you or others not to come closer. Your rabbit may be scared – then the thumping alerts the rabbit’s family of danger. Thumping: Thumping can mean different things at different times. It’s very amusing to watch and generally known as a “binky”. When they are happy, excited, or playful, they will do the same thing to express those high spirits.
Bunny has a couple of designated large cotton towels and will make a nest out of them frequently.īunny is inching into the carrier, carefully assessing the situation.īinky/Zig-Zag Jump: When rabbits run away from enemies, they often hop in crazy zig-zag motion to get away. In the wild, they constantly dig in the house, fabric is the next best thing. Rummaging: Rabbits often love to rummage through clothes, towels, or blankets on the floor. That means it had enough and while it still wants to be near you, it doesn’t want to be touched anymore. Hopping Away: After a cuddle session your rabbit may get up and hop a few steps away. You can try reassuring the rabbit by calmly talking and offering food, but let it come to you on its own to prevent further stress. If that happens, let the rabbit calm down on its own. This behavior may be triggered by a sudden sound, smell, or movement. Sudden Flight/Escape: When a rabbit senses danger, it won’t sit around to confirm, it will immediately race away and hide. After the bonding process and/or getting fixed, this behavior should stop. This behavior is most prominent in rabbits that aren’t spayed/neutered. Marking with Urine/Feces: Rabbits may mark their territory with bits of poop or small amounts of urine to warn other rabbits, especially when a new rabbit shows up. So everything that gets chinned is claimed as the rabbit’s property. Rubbing the chin on things/people leaves a bit of the scent and alerts other rabbits that they are entering a claimed territory. One rabbit, no matter if it’s male or female, will hump another rabbit to confirm their dominance or to establish it during the bonding process.Ĭhinning: Rabbits have scent glands under the chin. Humping: While humping certainly indicates sexual maturity and readiness to mate, it can also be a display of dominance. As much as you want to go over and cuddle, it’s best to let the rabbit sleep to confirm the feeling of safety. Flopping Over: If a rabbit flops over on its side to sleep or simply rests with the feet all stretched out, it feels safe and secure. Well then, I better get to work ) You know what, I was thinking to finally use this bird thing I drew a couple of years ago for an abandoned game idea, for the new game. It can be something about bontegames, about the kind of games I post here: puzzles, braintwisters, escape games, about my own games, maybe about factory balls that is also almost turning 10. to me (bontegames at ) and I'll do something special with it next month! (If I get your creation by October 1st, that is fine). I was also thinking that if you enjoy drawing/doodling/writing maybe you could make a little something in a spare moment for the celebration? That would be amazing! Send your creation/drawing/doodle/comic/etc. Maybe you've also heard that the end of life of the Flash swf file format (around 2020) was announced so this is also the perfect opportunity to brush up my html5 knowledge and make a html5 game to ensure the future of bonte web games )īut no worries, if you are waiting for that mobile sequel to Yellow, I'm also continuing to work on that :) Well of course this calls for a celebration! I will try and come up with a new browser game by next month, because browser games is where it all started. I can't believe this myself, but next month this site will be turning 10 years old! Of course it's you, the visitors, that kept me going for all those years! I still love hunting down those games to post here and then reading your thoughts/questions/answers in the comments! And I still love to find new developers and shine the spotlight on their creations!
