I love Chloe so much and only got her a few days ago.:bunnyhug: She seems comfortable with me because she has been grooming herself and has been purring when ever I pet her/feed her treats etc. and will sit in a comfortable position.But whenever I take her out to hop around she doesn't want me to look at her or even walk around.The previous owner said that boys had been chased her around.
Does anyone think that has something to do with it?

Do you mean aggressive toward you?




:?


If that means, That means she's an un-spayed doe. And when they are in sexually behavior doe's get very moody.

What exactly does she do when you look at her or move around? Does she tense up and act scared?

I think she just needs more time to get comfortable with you - whether she was chased at her previous home or not, some bunnies are just a little more cautious than others. It takes most bunnies many months to really get used to you and your routine (I honestly think it can take a year for them to settle in) so she just needs more time. Just sit on the ground and read a book and she'll learn to approach you on her own time.

My own bun, Hannah, can be nervous. When she's in a new larger space she spends a lot of time looking around and taking everything in. Sometimes if we move too fast, or leave the room them enter it quickly, she gets startled - it's just the way some bunnies are.

Thanks! I think thats just it she tenses up and runs back to her cage.

just remember, when it comes to the food chain the rabbit is food for everyone. If you look at them wrong she may take it wrong.


and you just got her, it'll take her some time.
