Angry Bun

[Cinnamin]

So to make a long story short we had to bathe our bunny because her back paws were brown and cover in pee and poop. So after this bath she is now ignoring us and pouting. She normally comes after shaking a treat bag but she is not doing that now. she is just hiding in a corner behind some furniture She threw her back paws up at us after we let her down free. I am just wondering for how long can we/should we expect this behavior out of her?

Thanks!

You should never bathe a rabbit. Next time, use a warm wet wash cloth to wash her feet off instead. Baths are stressful for rabbits and can quickly lower their body temp which can cause them to get sick. They also have delicate skin that can become irritated easily from water and any soap, and oils on their fur that protect their delicate skin that washes away in water.
