        Someone told me they rock their bunny in their arms while its on its back and that the bunny likes it….do bunnies really like being rocked? I tried it with Bilbo and he doesnt try to jump out of my arms or anything but dont know if he is actually enjoying it or just staying still coz he cant move easily?

          When you put a bunny on their back it goes into a trance and won’t move. Weather or not he likes being rocked is really anyone’s guess though.

            I don’t believe they enjoy this – it makes them very vulnerable.

                Yeah, doesn’t it make them really scared so they just kind of…freeze?

                  Since most bunnies hate being held, I’m guessing that being rocked is even worse. I’m pretty sure my Olivia would pummel my face if I tried that!

                    bilbo doesn’t mind me holding him. he’ll only let me hold him mind but he quite likes having cuddles as he’s used to it

                      That sounds like trancing but holding in the arms. A bunny’s blood pressure goes up when they are tranced, so I only do that when I have to clip my bun’s hind leg nails.
