Bunny Thinks She’s A Cat (and dog)

[andyrichin]

So my bunny thinks she’s is a cat. She will jump up on the couch; jump up on the arm rest; jump onto the back of the couch (couch is against a wall with windows) and look out the window, or attempt to eat the blinds. Now she’s trying to jump onto a table where she has to clear an 18″ gap. Is this normal behavior, or do we have have one adventurous bunny? It’s starting to get a little risky. If we leave her out even for a minute or two unsupervised there is a risk of her injuring herself. Already today she fell off the arm rest, which is probably 3′ high. I was just wondering if other rabbit owners experience similar behaviors.

Mine jumps up on the couch (both of them) and up on the back, on the arm like yours. They don’t have anywhere to jump to from the couch though.

When I had a loveseat by a window Buffy was starting to chew the wood trim. Sounds normal to me!

Sounds pretty normal. Kieko used to do that when we had a sofa in her room, but we found out that she had been laying on the back of the sofa pooping when we moved the sofa! I’ve seen pics of AH’s Henry flopped out on a bedside table, a video of Retrosquid’s Link go airborne over an ottoman onto the sofa, a pic of Hazel’s Oscar chilling on a bean bag chair, just to name a few. Definitely a few catbuns and dogbuns on here, and lots, and lots of goatbuns!
