        I have a 6 week old bunny who likes to lick my face. Is he giving kisses? Will he continue this the rest of his life?

          My rabbit always licks/kissses my face. I’m pretty sure it’s normal for some rabbits. Me and my rabbit have a very strong bond so he only kisses me. Maybe you and your rabbit have a very strong bond and he trusts you. I’m not sure if he will do it forever but my rabbits been doing it since 7 weeks old now he’s almost 5 months old.

            The licking may increase has he becomes more mature and he’s chosen you as his bonded soulmate. It then may calm down after being neutered, but essentially no; it will remain.

            The “grooming” in rabbit relationships is very important! When one rabbit in the relationship (you) takes the time to groom (pet) the other (your rabbit), it’s natural for him to repay you by grooming you in return. Additionally, just as you enjoy petting him, he enjoys petting you!

              Both of my buns give kisses! Opehlia does more, but I have had her longer. I love getting little bunny kisses back! Quincy usually licks my nose and eyebrows but Ophelia will give me licks all over. Just soak in that bunny love!

                Kisses are a bun’s way of giving you the ultimate compliment . Enjoy, and don’t forget to groom him back (pet him).

                  Oh I’m so glad! I have another bunny that doesn’t lick me, she loves pets, but she just isn’t into licking me. When I got another I was hoping he’d be into licking me. I’m going to keep them separate for a few months so I really hope we can increase our bond. I’ve only had him a day so I’m so happy he’s so affectionate.

                    I’m going to try and figure out how to post pics of him and my other bunny, I’m not sure how though, I don’t think you can do it on I phones. I’ll have to try to figure out how to do it from my laptop.
