I’m thinking about a cat study that said something to the effect of……cats spend more time w/ their owners than dogs do! B/c cats spend so much time lounging about & sleeping, people often think that they don’t spend time w/ their owners. It’s more that cats view socialization as being around their people…that’s counted as social interaction.
At this point my 2 rabbits seem to prefer to spend time w/ me while cuddled up together in their cage. I have the door open for hours, Jessi comes out for a few hip hops ever few hours. When I sit on the floor or watch tv down there…they definately don’t leave their cage (I think they despise my forced love pets). Maybe I wrong w/ rabbits, but I feel like they just enjoy being around us, whether we’re watching a movie (they enjoy all DH’s craptacular Netflix pix) or eating dinner. I can’t help but wonder if they see socialization similar to cats??????
