        When my bunny is angry he binkies and bunny 500 like crazy. For example, if someone goes upstairs but shuts the door behind them so he can’t follow, he will go to the door, see its closed then run around the room and binky then back to the door to check it’s still closed then run around like a loon again. He can do this for ages just keep checking the door again and again!

        He also sometimes binkies if I bop him off the couch.

        Does anyone else have a mad binkying bun?

          Pete will do an angry binky every once in a while… it’s very distinguishable from the happy binky because the feet kick straight backwards instead of twisting… almost like a horse trying to kick someone. This generally happens after unwanted grooming or petting. He’ll pull back, huff, and then do the angry-binky/horse-kick as he goes to get more personal space.

              When Zorro binkies even in anger it still seems to be the same side flicking type of thing. I can only tell if it’s angry or happy by knowing the context of the binky. He’s so funny!

                JR, that’s what I have always taken it for–basically the bunny version of flipping the bird. lol

                 Nicolle, I have this image in my head now of your little bun running around going “I’m so mad, I’m so mad.. is the door open yet? No.. okay.. Weee! I’m so mad.. weee!  Is it open yet?”

                  Cottontail — that’s exactly it, and Marlee is an expert at it…. with her, the foot flick is the mild and the thump is her using really bad words.
