hi - my 5 year old bunny has started making 'chirping type' noises every time he eats pellets - he has made these noises occasionally before (when eating) and i've associated it with happiness when he gets food but they've become a lot more pronounced just this week. He doesn't make them when he eats hay and he is eating everything enthusiastically and is on top form behaviourally ... so do i just put this down to good mood/age-related increase in vocalness?
He and his sidekick are indoors for winter .. but have been so for a few weeks so no big changes in environment or diet in past two weeks. He was at vet for RHDV2 vaccination in december and his teeth, weight, and general checkover were all good.
It's really cute - as long as it's benign. He's a stasis bunny (diet controlled with no attacks for over 2 years) so i watch for any changes like a hawk ...
