Hi! I have an adorable little gray bunny named Mr Darcy. He was born in February 2007 and I had him neutered in September. He is litter trained and such a great little pet. However, on three separate occassions Mr Darcy has lunged after my husband. Granted hubby is 6'4" but he actually likes the rabbit. Hubby works a rotating 12 hour days schedule. So when hubby is at work the bunny roams the house-just me and him. About a month ago, rabbit lunged at hubby and actually drew blood on his foot. Last night, hubby was home, bunny was in the hallway and hubby walked past him. Just as soon as Mr Darcy spotted him, he lunged at him. Didn't bite him, but nipped him. His ears were down and he was mad! I was sitting on the floor and Mr Darcy started growling and came toward me, but immediately backed off. I had to lock him up in his room for the evening. Today, I woke up let Mr. Darcy out and he blinkied all over the house. Hubby woke up, came down the hall, got his pants out of the dryer, walked down the hall. The rabbit saw him lunged at him and stood between me and hubby like he was guarding me. I had to put Mr. Darcy away until hubby left for work. I love having Mr Darcy. He is great company and so easy to care for. However, love my hubby! Is there any advice anyone has for why Mr. Darcy doesn't like hubby and how I can remedy the situation? Thanks!!!!
