Rascal is sat next to me on the coach, and is behaving normally but twice today he's started mildly twitching :shock: He'll just be sitting down then his entire body will just twitch several times, it doesn't look like it's voluntary either, not like he's shaking off an itch of anything

Why could he be twitching?

 

Hoppit!

Pickles does this too. It really freaked me out at first, but he's been doing it for some years now so I don't think it's anything to worry about.

:wave: just thought I'd make sure it wasn't a sign... I'm not overbearing, honest, but ever since Firefly died I still over-analyse everything my boys do

Awwwww, I'm sorry you lost your baby. I know what you mean though. I worry constantly about my pair.

My Evie does this when she's eating her bunny salad - usually around her back. Can only assume it's a happy thing!

It is a happy thing! Some bunnies do this when they really enjoy their meal.

But the whole body twitching is something different I think. Not sure.
