I had Oliver out to run around my room and he ran up to my leg and sniffed me. It tickled so I laughed and ran away. He kept chasing me. I'm like what are you doing?! Then he pressed his face against my leg and jumped up trying to hump my leg. I was laughing so hard but seriously? I don't want to be humped lmfao. I have my female up on my dresser in her cage, does he smell her or something? What the hell, lmao. He has never done this before. I put him back in his cage a few minutes ago so my dog could come in and he is now laying in his cage his legs all sprawled out breathing heavily with his head resting on the side of his litter box. Is he okay? Or is he just being horny. LOL.
 
Single male rabbits will often try to mount soft toys, cushions and even people's legs. This is a sign that your rabbit is ready to be neutered. This behaviour usually ceases a month or so after neutering.
 
Thank you! :) I think he knows he is too. Hehe.

Circling Your Feet:

A rabbit that follows you around circling your feet may just be trying to get your attention, but more likely your rabbit is sexually mature and is courting you (especially if accompanied by soft honking or oiking noises).
Interpretation: Usually mean "I'm in love with you" and means it is time to get bunny spayed or neutered. Sometimes simply means "Here I am, let's play."

That sounds exactly like what was happening, except he wasn't making noises. He was just trying to hump my leg and make love with it. Haha.
 
LOL Gary LOVED my slippers before his snip, rather disturbing. In his case he stopped humping the day he was fixed. I think the earlier you get it done the faster they stop the bad behaviors. I had him done within two weeks of his berries descending. I couldn't stand the smell.

He clearly, and literally, loves you :)
 
My female rabbit does this to me. I can't walk across my room without her humping my leg and I'm not even safe on my bed, she hops up and goes for my arm. She sniffs/honks the whole time. It's so awkward. I usually offer her Stuffbunny but she prefers me...
 
Yes! Oliver has a stuffed bunny and I gave him it he humped it a few times and was like no, your leg is better. I can't walk around my room without him circling my feet and trying to hump my leg!
 
Twigs does this to my daughter all the time. I've finally talked my husband in to getting him fixed. Now I have to wait till we can afford it *sigh*.
 
I just got a new male rabbit and he goes crazy with all of my females around. He isn't with them, but near them and can smell and see them. If he catches their scent he runs right over to my yorkie and tries to mount her. They came as a breeding pair, but I don't think I can wait 4 more months of this until the female is ready. So now he has an appointment for a neuter on August 16th... Guess I'll just deal with it until then. This is my first male bunny, so I've never experienced it before. I don't know how people can keep unaltered males!
 
Oh gawd, Harvey was terrible with humping. Not me but my cats. Poor poor cats. He'd hump they, they'd try to leave and then he'd hump their faces >_>

He has not humped once since his neuter. Sooooo worth it.
