        First time bunny owner and have some questions.

        I have a female 9 week old Holland Lop. She has been in our home just shy of a week. She has been doing good with peeing in her litter box but still working on dropping her poop everyplace. My question is every time she snuggles on my lap she pees and poops on me. I don’t mind the pooping but the peeing is rather annoying. She does this within the first 5 minutes of laying on my lap. She is comfortable and snuggles right in and is free to jump off at anytime but every time she snuggles on my lap she pees. She does not do this to my daughter or husband just me. Is it just because she is young , does it have to do with how she is held (she is typically curls up in a ball so her feet are at her head)- will she grow out of it or is it something that will become a behavioral problem? And if this can become a behavioral problem how do I correct her from doing this on me?  thanks

          I would wait and see if she grows out of it.

            Having 3 buns, every single one of them peed on me when they were babies and grew out of it. Im not sure if it has to do with them trying to put our scent on us or if they just get so comfy they forget to hold it or what, but all 3 of mine grew out of it after a bit.
