i see my bunnys lying down all relaxed with there eyes open, having found 2 of my bunnys dead in that exact same position, it sends chill down my spine and i have to poke them to make sure all is well.:?
will a bunny ever be able to relax at my house.....i hope so..:lol:
 
Unfortunately, I know what you mean:(

When my bunnies flop like that my heart stops and I get light-headed because it really scares me. I watch them to see if I can see them breathe before I am brave enough to actually move. I normally just get a look of disgust from them when I wake them up:lol:
 
it's awful . coco throws herself to the floor with a bang. she always looks wide eyed and looks in shock:shock: scares me to death, and rexy has his eyes at half mast and just looks a bit gormless bless him:lol::lol:
 
I hate it when my bunnies do that too. It scares the life out of me, I normally watch them for a timy minute and then say their names or give them a little poke with my heart pounding and then as you say there is a look of disgust and then they ignore me for a while.
 
im the same with nala shes always flopped over asleep and it takes loads to wake her

if u clap call her name she ignores so i generally fling a treat in her direction and see if she moves to eat it which she does cos shes a piggy :lol:
 
im slowly getting used to the dead flopped look.. my panic is Alvin sitting hunched up or in the carrier alone... i go cold with fear.. then the little git spots me and runs over and it was just an atrest pose :oops::oops::oops::oops:
 
I used to go out to see my first rabbit Lopsie in the morning to find him spatted on his shelf with a leg hanging off, or flopped with his head in his food bowl or the weirdest one: alseep on his shelf with his head squished between the shelf and the wire mesh of the hutch...

Poking had to happen or I would never have known. He slept in some amazing positions. :lol:
 
Am I weird? Cos I love it!! I cant get enough of their flopped-over-iness.

That said I am fortunate to have never been in your situation, so I can totally understand why you would freak, I totally would too!

I do look to check that their ribs are moving up and down though, so I do know what you mean. They do it so dramatically too sometimes :lol::lol:

Click to expand...

I have a 9 year old bun that seems to be permanently flopped and out for the count, I am always checking to make sure he is breathing as sometimes even poking him doesn't stir him :?
 
I know what you mean I am the same with all my animals and children:oops:

I can't rest my head on my o/h chest because when I hear his heart beating I think it might stop:shock:

So I shouldn't worry. You could be a complete freak like me:lol:
 
I'm the same too dont worry :lol:

Rainbow's always doing this and it scares me so much! I'm not used to buns flopping and playing dead cos Jose doenst do flopping :roll: It's going to take a bit of getting used to me thinks!!
