Nose bumps

joey&boo

Wise Old Thumper
talking here about bunny interactions with people, so nose to fist bumps:lol:

Do all your bunnies nose bump with you as a greeting? I can't pretend to remember if all my bunnies have done this historically, but I think so. Mouseypies nose were very assertive:love: Boo stopped doing them when her eyesight went which makes sense I guess. Eddy though, he never does them & I wonder why. He does rush over to say hello (if he is in the mood) but normally just flattens himself ready for groomies.Just now I offered him my hand to bump and he chinned me (several times) instead :lol: :love:
 
Aw what a lovely thread J & B :) Treacle was a definite nose bumper, you certainly knew you'd been bumped, like lovely Mousie :love:

awww Treacly. Its nice to hear she gave a solid nose bump like my Mousey:lol: I remember daphnephoebe saying one of her buns was the same. Now if that bun was Phoebe we have a B&W theme going...so far
 
Casper and Sophie nose bump my ankles a lot. But I'm never sure if it's a hello or a "get out of my way" or a "give me food"... :lol: They've never given me a nose-to-fist bump that I remember... They see my hands as food dispensers only; beyond that they're not interested. ;)

I like that Eddy chinned you instead. It's a rather possessive hello. :lol:

:lol: bunnies do "cupboard love" so well. I like that Eddy chinned me too, I'm happy to be claimed.
 
Tui and Froe don't do nose bumps :lol: I'm not offended as they also don't do it to each other. I don't remember what the Rexes did.
 
I love a rabbit nose bump :love:

Phillip is a serious nose bumper, it's a regular occurrence from him. The girls not so much, but occasionally I'll be opening the curtains in their room or something and I'll get a boisterous nose bump to the ankle from Whitney :love:

Aw that's lovely, bunny nose bumps are precious :love:
 
I don't know honestly Cookie doesn't do this, whenever he sees my nose he starts licking it :D

LambChop used to do that and he'd roll over on his back like a puppy but his licks then turned into nasty bites. If I put my face near LambChop now he'd bite my face off.

Omg haha terrible I hope cookie don't do this, I don't want to experience bite phobia/anxiety while he licks my face :lol:

with this thread I was on about when a bunny bops your fist with his / her nose. I think Boo would do the same if I presented my face - give it a good clean :lol:

Ohh sorry I got it wrong. I think Cookie would probably smell it excitedly, hoping for a treat. And then he would go, I never get a lick for this, I don't deserve it hahaha :lol:
 
Fudgie doesn't really do nose to fist bumps, although she does sometimes chin my hand when I offer it. She does nose bump my ankles a lot. She'll sometimes make a point of coming over to do it when she enters a room I'm in, which is quite nice. I like to think it's her way of saying hello.

Scipio definitely doesn't do nose to fist bumps. I offer my fist to him and say "Fist bump, Scips?" and he'll just stare at me as if to say "What are you doing? I don't want that, there's no food on it!" His way of greeting me is to charge at me like a Pamploma bull!
