        I have a bonded pair of rabbits, one female, one male- both fixed.  They have been bonded since the beginning of January of this year. Fonzie, my lionhead, is a very gentle, sweet bunny.  He loves grooming and being groomed.  Adalynn, my most recent adoption is a lop.  She can be a bit bossy at times and tends to be a bit aggressive towards humans.  I don’t think her human before me took very good care of her and she was not socialized at all when I first got her back in November . Adalynn and Fonzie loved each other right off the bat.  They groom each other and I never really noticed Addie acting up towards Fonzie until today.  They were in their litter box eating hay and Addie started digging at Fonzie’s side and Fonzie moved, but stayed in the litter box and continued to eat hay.  Was this just communication?  Should I be concerned?  They’ve never given me any reason to be concerned before, but I have never observed this behavior between the two of them.  Does anyone have any suggestions on helping Addie with her behavior?  She’s Miss Princess and knows it!

          Lol your bun is saying, “Move fatty!” Charlie does this to Cadbury when he wants him to move under him so he can groom him or cuddle him more comfortably. If they are not breaking out into a fight then it’s fine. They’re just talking to each other.

            Is Addie actually digging into his side or into his side and the litter? Moshi sometimes seems to get it in his head that there ‘s buried treasure in the litterbox and will set his mind to digging even if Marlee is on the spot where he wants to dig. If she’s on the spot he’ll try to dig anyway. I’ve even seen him try to lay across her and try to dig behind her. She will either move or nip his butt to make him stop.

            Like Usagi said, it likely means MOVE!
