OUR FORUM IS UP BUT WE ARE STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF UPDATING AND FIXING THINGS. SOME THINGS WILL LOOK WEIRD AND/OR NOT BE CORRECT. YOUR PATIENCE IS APPRECIATED. We are not fully ready to answer questions in a timely manner as we are not officially open, but we will do our best.

THUMPING! Hammer has taken to thumping when he is in trouble lol.
I have a tone i say “Hammer no!” in when he is naughty, and he knows the tone and what it means!
And he knows what happens if he doesnt stop and back away from the tempting object, he is sent to his cage without a treat. Like a kid sent to bed without dinner lol, but of course its just a small time out and i just with hold a treat, not dinner. But anyways, now when i yell at him, he still listens and runs from the temping carpet, book, hamper etc. But when he gets away, to where ever he was headed too, HE THUMPS AT ME! 
Its like he absolutely positively must have the last word lol. It didnt really bother me for a few days but now its annoying. “Ill listen to you ma, but I will not let you get away with yelling at me. I will let you tell me what to do, but ill show you alright!” Sometimes I even get multiple thumps, followed by a few min. of bun butt.
Its like a three year old testing his limits lol. This isnt a huge deal and he has had his share of worse habits, but there isnt anything I can do about this is there? Just wondering if anybunny else does this and thought if not.. then maybe my disgruntled bun would bring a smile to ya! lol

Ruby and Honey Bunny tend to thump when irritated. Cotton when strange new sound or item is in his living room. Ruby and HB kind of talk back sometimes with thumps.
