  I have two rabbits that live in my garage, one of them got out, and we had to chase her around before she got hurt now she is terrified of me i try to pet her and she dashes to the other side of the cage and makes a grunt sound, if she is out in her pen and i enter the garage she makes a sun for it into the cage. i cant get anywhere near her, how do i bound with her?

  Give her space honestly. She’s probably stressed from the chase.

  As A&B says, she didn’t like being chased by you, and now she associates you with being chased. You did have to try and catch her, sometimes we do have to do things that our buns don’t like.
  
  There are ways to get back into a bun’s favor though. First of all, give her some space -don’t force your affections on her. Let her just get used to you again. Leaving sth yummy in the cage for the buns, preferably a healthy treat (parsley, dill, small piece of apple etc) will help her connect you with good things.
