Here are some of the things that are just oddly satisfying for me as a rabbit owner!!!
1. Seeing the cage/area brand new and sparkling after a cleaning.![]()
2. A litter box right after you clean it and refill it.
3.Opening a new bag of hay.
4. Seeing your rabbit completely chew up and eat a strand of hay. Same with a whole piece of lettuce or veggie.
Are any of these things something that satisfy you all as well? It’s just so weird!!! ![]()
What things satisfy you guys?
Getting out of bed the day after cleaning day to discover that by some miracle the hay is still contained in the rack and there’s no poop outside the box!
The munchy crunchy sounds of fresh greens being eaten.
Watching a bunny carry something in their mouth and hop around with it (so cute!).
I love the smell of fresh hay.
Hearing them crunching on food.
When they put their soft little feetsies on you and snuffle at you.
Watching them roll around or binky.
Watching a bonded pair or group all groom each other at once.
And a weird one: The sound that sucking their poos up in the vacuum makes. ![]()

getting a shy bunny to open up (Asriel)
snuggling up and listening/feeling their heart beating.
nose boops
hearing/watching a dead flop
watching them explore
their excitement first thing in the morning, and when you get home from anywhere
the smell of a freshly cleaned cage, room, and litter box.
Ha ha those are all really satisfying things too!!! Especially the binkies and flops!!
Seeing a bonded pair snuggle
Seeing how excited they are for a fresh pile of hay
Seeing them periscoping and resting their little feetsies on you
A fresh litterbox which stays clean and tidy for all of 5 minutes (even less if Buttercup is being a little madam)
Binkies. Oh the binkies!!!!
And not forgetting, seeing a big pile of glorious poops (in the litter box)
Hearing Wick crunch on hay while I fall asleep is by far one of the most relaxing things I’ve ever experienced. I go to sleep thinking “Thank goodness. He’s being healthy.”

lol, Wick, I think that too. I top up their hay just before bed every night, and I love hearing them munch on it.
When Caroline digs at a blanket and flicks her head a couple of times before resting on it, I feel satisfied, lol. I also love when Caroline digs at my pants and nudges me for pets.
I have a fascination with hair. Grooming them and seeing how much hair I have collected at the end makes me feel quite triumphant. I particularly like hoovering up the bunny room. I make sure I start with a completely empty hoover so I can see just how much hair gets collected in it at the end. I make sure I hoover all the blankets and everything just to get maximum collection![]()
How about seeing a stretch/yawn combo or a when they spread their toes to wash them? Seriously, there is no animal on Earth cuter than a bunny.
Yess seeing a wonderful neat pile of pops is sooo satisfying. And yawns!!
I love sitting and watching Rain eat her hay. The crunching and little chomping face.
It’s so rewarding for some reason after grooming to see how much hair you caught on the brush! It’s also so satisfying to pull the caught fur off of the brush!
Seeing the shelter bunnies binky when I bring them out to play.
Same LPT! That toe spread thing freaked me out at first but now I find it pretty cool, lol.
Seeing bonded bunnies snuggle
Hearing Guinness give an audible chitter-chitter when petting her while she’s sleepy
Getting the rare lick
Binkies and flops
Falling asleep and finding them taking a nap too or sleeping right next by.
A clean pen….moments before buns go back in and wreck it all over again.
The sound of a bunny digging at something!
The sound of cardboard bunstruction.
Mouth noises.
Honking! It’s so cute! Rain starts honking softly whenever she’s running towards me thinking I have a treat, or whenever she’s excited.
Circling!!!
Pulling out fur during a molt with your hands. Until it gets all over you ofcourse!
The sound of bunny munching is definitely the best sound to fall asleep to!
Muttering/tooth purring when he’s snuggled down for cuddles
Messing up all his floofy lionlop hair and giggling at how silly he looks, then his reaction where he leaps up and gives his whole head a good shake as if to say ‘stop laughing at me hoomin!’
Periscoping/running in circles whenever I go near the treat drawer
Sniffling right up to my mouth when I’m eating fruit because he wants some XD
Mad crazy binkies (and watching other buns binkies on instagram!)
NOSE BOOPS
Heaven: LOL messing up Bombur’s smoosh gets you a glare. Messing up Asriel’s smoosh gives you a glare, foot flick, and sometimes a thump xD And yes!!! The sniffing and the tooth purring <3
Watching Breintje doze off into a full REM sleep next to me on the couch. Who’d have thought that this wild ball of energy would ever trust humans so much?
Awwww Breintje is like Rain’s twin. So fierce and energetic, but trusting and caring at the same time. They even look alike!
