Hi everyone, so my partner and I have had our bunny, Pepper, the french lop since December 29th. She's 5 months old now, born October 3rd so maybe she's going through hormonal changes?
I let her out every night for hours to run around and she's never gone for me but my boyfriend today tried feeding her whilst I was in work. He said he opened her cage, she was fine, smoothed her head which is her favorite spot to be strolked and she was happy, then he reached in and she bit his arm?
I was so surprised when he told me, this was only half an hour ago as I only got in from work 20 minutes ago.
She's never gone for anyone before and my mum feeds her whilst I'm in work and has never had Pepper go for her, either.
I asked my boyfriend in detail what he did and he did exactly as I do when feeding her, and she was fine with him smoothing her etc.
One time a few weeks ago we were playing with her and her toys, and my boyfriend was pulling her chew toy around and she was following/chasing after it but she jumped on it and made a little noise which seemed a bit dominating, could she have remembered him doing that and now have a grudge against him?
I'm extremely surprised and confused
He doesn't spend as much time with her as I do, but my mum see's her even less and she has never had trouble with my mum? I think he needs to spend more time with her?
Thanks everyone, Georgia.
