        Potato is a very loving and happy bunny, he’s always binkying and giving out a generous amount of licks. But today his behavior was a bit off; he threw what I describe as a “tantrum.” I was doing homework for most of the day on my bed, he came to my bed hopped off and “kicked dirt” at me three times very aggressively. I got up and followed him as he hopped to his play area, and he began throwing his toys around. I put my hand near him once he stopped, usually he’d lick me, but instead he nibbled on my hand once. I started to pet him and cuddle with him after he did that, and he was back to licking and being friendly again. I’m not sure why he did this today, any theories or explanations would be great. Also, last night and tonight when I was getting his pellets he nibbled on my foot (just like he did with my hand). I’m also not sure why he would bite me when I’m getting his food; it’s not like I’m taking a long time. This is something new, so I’m just really surprised by his behavior.

          Throwing toys is usually a “play” thing. It sounds like he really wanted your attention, be with by petting or playing. He knew he could grab your attention by flicking his feet as if he were annoyed at you

          Rule of thumb, youre always taking a long time when it comes to pellets, lol My Blue used to lick and nibble my feet as I got his pellets; it look a lot of “Ouch!”s to teach him out of it.
