Does anyone elses bun do this? I can't figure out why - but Stickers loves to dig the wall o.O she'll just stand up on two legs and start digging with her front paws against the wall in her room. It's so weird. The wallpaper in there is super ugly anyway, so I don't really care if she damages it, but she has so many things to dig on the ground (dig boxes, etc ) would think it would be more comfortable to dig those!

yeah, you would think Mine don't dig on the wall itself but they do go up to a corner sometimes and dig like mad.

Mine don't do that, but Hannah will dig on the vertical back of the couch or on my upper arm (as I'm sitting on the couch) if I'm wearing a baggy sweatshirt, so she does dig vertical surfaces sometimes. Hopefully she doesn't move to the walls!

Haha Pam, true enough. Powder has already been peeling the wallpaper off the walls, leaving me a nice little mess to clean up, I guess they don't like plaid any more than I do.

Tehehee! My Missespants digs at several corners. And the futon covers.

Mind you, she also has a room full of cardboard condos and apartments that she digs and chews at it. Bunny real-estate is really profitable. If one building goes down, a new building quickly rises up. (New cardboard box replaces the old.)

My baby Sally also digs at the floor sometimes. She almost becomes obsessive compulsive and I get the impression that she does so when she is irritated. Does anyone know how this relates to wild rabbit behaviour and why they do this?
