  Hi,
  
  I’ve had my dwarf lop rabbit for 3 months now and has always done alot of binkying etc this last week she hasn’t binkyed once that I have seen and has become very clingy wanting petted and cuddled (unusual for her).
  
  She has free run of 3 rooms in the house and plenty of toys etc. She has plenty of time with me for company and is eating and pooping fine.
  
  I’m just a bit worried something is wrong? Any ideas?
  
  Thanks

  As long as she’s eating and pooping normally, I wouldn’t worry.
  
  A bunny that is unwell is usually withdrawn, so the fact that she wants attention from you is not anything to worry about. Sounds to me like she has started to bond with you and has decided that attention and cuddles are a very good thing.
  
  As bunnies get older, binkies usually become a bit rarer. I’m lucky if I see a binky every two weeks.

  Yes, I wouldn’t worry if the eating and pooping is fine. It might just mean that she’s settle down due to age, or due to getting comfortable in your house and wanting pets.
