So I'm almost positive Loki has bonded with our cat. He snuggles with him, tries to groom and play with him, and will hop over to the cat and present himself to be groomed. It's really adorable but he also does it.....with the couch. He flops and twists around on it, plays on it, but he also will spend a lot of time grooming it. Does anyone else's buns have a piece of furniture they absolutely love? I thought it was just him being cute at first but he will start at one end and try to groom the entire couch.  He has also started to mark it with poops and that doesn't sit well with the bf, lol.

My bun Milo grooms the couch the whole time he is on it. It is pretty funny. I never thought of it as bonding though lol but i guess it is in a way or just a kind of affection for the couch haha

LOL this is like the funniest thing I've ever heard. XD

I don't know much about bunnies, but I would say that the grooming part isn't a big deal unless the bunny can somehow get pieces of fabric in its mouth and consume it.

Though the poop doesn't sound too fun.

Haha, sometimes bunnies do love to groom carpet/furniture...I have absolutely no clue why, but it doesn't seem to be an abnormal behavior that you need to worry about, unless Loki is eating chunks of it or something.
