I tried this once. Cinnabun just stared at me like “what do you think you are doing?? feed me”

I can actually wiggle my nose. The first couple of times I did Skipper stopped and stared at me wondering what the heck I was doing. I think she was more or less surprised that I could do such a thing. =p

haha i pretty much got the same response as cinnabun when i tried..kind of a perplexed ‘stupid human’ look lol. However when i talk to Parsley he does wiggle his nose at me, and the more i talk to him the more he nose wiggles

awww the page is down! I wanted to see the nose wiggles!

I often have these conversations with Fiver….
ME:*wigglewigglewiggle*
FIVER: Huh? What you doin’?
ME:*wigglewigglewiggle* Saying hello with bunny talk.
FIVER: You got noms?
ME:*wigglewigglewiggle* Um. No.
FIVER: Oh…too bad…Iz sleepin’ den…go’way.

Awesome. Note to self: Clear several hours off schedule to figure out nose wiggles. I want to know what it means when Olivia glowers at me and flares her nostrils!

I’ve been meaning to do some reading on the Language of Lagomorphs site but I keep getting distracted with Facebook and BB.

After reading this before I tried it with Belle. She did it a little bit I think. If I sped up she did too and then when I slowed down she did the same, it’s pretty neat.

IM TRYIN’ THIS!!!! RIGHT MEOW!!!! !!!!

*update*

annnnnd Yeti has the attention span of a dartboard…. 

i’ll keep tryin

I found it works best if you wait until they are lying down and chilled out

LOL @ Yeti.

I’ve done it several times with Sammy, and it seems to work, though not always 2 wiggles get 2 wiggles, and 3 get 3 etc. I would do it when she was lying down wiggling, and would stop and I’d wiggle back. She’d start up again then. Would go on for a little while between us.

I could never decide whether to do the Bewitched wiggle side to side, the up and down nose twitch, or flare my nostrils, so would end up doing all three.

ooo, just read that great article and there’s a 4th way to wiggle! Pull your upper lip down over your top teeth and it looks like a bunny’s nose. Must go talk to Sammy now….

well its mid day now and hes lounging like he owns the place. i’m gunna give this another shot. lol

Mine don’t respond when I wiggle my nose, but their wiggles do tend to correspond to what I’m saying. When I talk they wiggle faster, as if they’re listening, then when I stop they slow down again.

I tend to do the tooth chat with my bunnies. I’m not good at nose wiggling and am a little wary too. I did get it bitten once when I put my face in somebunnys space.

Foo looked at my like I was crazy the first time I tried, but she’s gotten better at not giving me a side eye when I wiggle at her now. After seeing the Language of… site the first time, I wanted to try so bad. Like Elrohwen said, Foo seems like she’s listening when I talk, she’ll wiggle faster if I’m excited and slow down if I’m not talking about anything exciting, what to have for dinner, or playing with her.

Jerseygirl what is a tooth chat?

That little clicking noise they do with their teeth when they’re content. It’s often called a tooth purr. Mine most often do 3 clicks in a row. Every now and then I get the continuous subtle tooth purr.

I often click back when they tooth purr. Sort of like letting them know im happy sitting there with them too, or I enjoy petting them. Generally letting them know I love them I hope.

Me, too, Jersey. If we are snuggling and they are tooth purring, I do it back and try to imitate the clicks and speed. Sometimes, if they are not tooth purring and I start, they will too. It’s adorable.

I did this with Bean and he copied me it was adorable
