  Muffin twitches his back/bum sometimes. He does this not just when he eats, but when he’s just laying or sitting down. Is there a reason he does this? Here’s a video (sorry for the bunny poops, this was right before cleaning up, then I gave him a bigger litter box and it seems to be mostly better). Sometimes they’re bigger fur twitches than this little one. Like the fur will move more. I know I post a lot, I’m just concerned about every little thing 😅.

  Or do you mean the twitch? If you look on his lower back at the bun area the skin twitches. It’s kinda hard to see on video. :/

  OK, now I see it. I don’t think the twitching is unusual. I think it’s an involuntary reaction to stimulus, which can include eating something tasty.

  The banana butt twitch is a common phenomena 🙂

  Okay thanks guys. It’s probably just that then. He does it when he’s just laying down or sitting though. Maybe he’s thinking about food idk lol.
