I do worry all the time. He lives on his own and I let him have treats and things. Yesterday he bit me but he was frightened and I scoped him up and gave him a cuddle and he fell asleep in my arms. My poor baby boy came to live with me at 4 months old and usually I clean up his cage when he is running around my bedroom and floor when he is in bed. Yesterday I was tired and I started to clean his pen when he was still running around and he ran over growling and attacked the brush. I thought he was playing but he did it again and so I shut myself in the pen. I then noticed he was getting anxious that I was there without him so opened it up he ran in there bit the brush and the bit my back. I felt awful because I carried on stupidly why didn't I stop when he first attacked? Why didn't I realise how distressed he was? I shouldn't have placed him in that position. I didn't know what to do but pick him up and cuddle him. Today he has been helping me sort out in my room and is back to his adorable self. But I have moments when I think why did I get him? I love him though I know that.
I clean him daily and he has good quality food and veg from the garden. I just think that he may be better off without me maybe somewhere where there is space for a friend.
Please don't worry. Rabbits get very territorial about their area - whether its their hutch or play pen. When you're cleaning it out - even though you're doing a nice good thing - they want to defend it!! He doesn't mean to hurt you. Has he been neutured yet? That will seriously help! xxx
