  I am curious what behavior is this from my bun where he would be sitting with both front paws really close to his hind paws with his back hunched, I guess the best way to imagine it is like the cat would sit and then he would do this sudden shiver, it would shake the whole cage. he would shake 2 to 3 times… I don’t know what is wrong with him. but other than that, his eating and droppings are normal.
  
  Thanks for any feedbacks

  Hmmm..hard to picture what you are describing. Does he do this often?

  He does this while sitting?
  My bun does little shivers sometimes, not necessarily because it’s cold, but the same was us humans do.
  If what you’re describing is what I see sometimes, I wouldn’t worry about it, but see what the others say!

  He would do this here and there… and one time I saw him doing that and went to pick him up to see if he’s ok and saw his genitals fully erected? I guess it’s nothing to worry about then.

  Oh, I think I know what you mean! Bindi sometimes does that right before he starts humping something (usually a stuffed bunny). Like a vibration and then sometimes he will make this buzzing sound. Not sure why they do that. Serenading maybe?
