is your rabbit vocal?

Young Bun
Just wondered if all rabbits make sounds? Buttons is our first rabbit and i never knew before that they do. He started being vocal after about 8 weeks of having him, noone would believe me untill they heard him themselves. As his gorwing up he seems to make more different sounds, so far he;

Grunts - means his horney and wants to hump your foot (if your standing he circles you)
Growls - means his just about to jump at you and take a chunk of flesh out of you
whimpering sound - means his scared, he also makes this sound when he thumps his foot on the floor, he also makes this sound when we have to give him antibiotics through a syringe

Also he snores sometimes when his asleep bless him :D
 
Yip, my boy is very vocal.....does all the noises you described, i find it endearing :)
 
mmmm yep ted tells me off when she doesn't get her food quick enough. she gives me a grunt to get out of the road lol. petal doesn't make a sound, she so sweet.
 
Biccy makes the following sounds

honk honk honk as she is running towards a banana or breakfast

Grinding her teeth noise when she is being stroked

Grunting noise when she is thumping her feet - NOT happy
 
Aroma grunts a lot. Usually complaining when she's in her hutch. She seems to want to go out even more now that she has babies (maybe a wild instinct since wild rabbits rarely spend time with their babies)
The babies are quite vocal too when they are hungry. Squeaking and bouncing like a bunch of pink frogs:lol: (true to be said, one is pink, two are gray and three are black)
 
Hector used to grunt/buzz when excited but stopped after he was neutered. Honey makes lots of different noises though :D (even though she has been spayed). She makes a grunting/buzzing sound when she's excited (especially if she thinks there is food somewhere :lol:), a cooing noise when she's relaxed/sleeping, a slurping when she drinks and a wimper when she is frightened (when you pick her up which she doesn't like much).
 
I wouldn't say Boris is a vocal rabbit..he's quiet most of the time,although he does growl occasionally :lol: Usually when being picked up (which he hates) or telling people off lol! He also slurps a lot when he drinks :lol:
 
Daisy has never made any noises until this week. She's started grunting and circling my feet :shock: Really don't want to know what she's got in mind :lol:
 
Alvin buzzes and circles when hes excited :love::love::love: and when hes mad he grunts and boxes :shock:

Pearl is silent apart from teeth purring when i fuss her :love:
 
Both of mine are noisy. Honey "memes for food" and Wesley sings and dances at Honey. If I haven't served up his food quick enough he stamps his food and makes a "muring noise".
