Hi, looking for advice. My boyfriend and I adopted A fixed female IMG_4297 8month old holland/french lop in January she’s about 12 pounds, she’s been with us for three months or more. It took about two months for her to seem like she’s bonded with us. Recently she’s been charging and biting us all the time. She’s not showing any signs of being in pain she had a uti a month after we got her and we got that handled pretty quickly. While at the vet they told us she is incredibly skiddish and hard to handle they said we have to work on picking her up- which we try here and there she really does not like it- the vet thinks she may have been handled poorly by whoever owned her before. We have not been trying to pick her up as much as we probably should be but we’re afraid of scaring her and making her scared of us etc. especially if she was treated poorly before. Nothing has really changed much since we first got her we changed up her room but she seems to like when we do that she gets all binky and curious when we change it up we only have done it maybe three times and the aggression doesn’t appear to coincide with any of the room changes. She also just doesn’t like toys and it’s hard to find toys for her in general because she’s such a big bunny. So we struggled for a while keeping her entertained and happy- she loves what we call “construction” we build her cardboard boxes and tubes she can explore and destroy and she hasn’t seemed bored in a month or so since we’ve given in and decided to go full cardboard box empire for her. She’s probably only ever stomped at us three times in 3 months and all of which we’ve backed off and given her her space. But now it’s just lunging and biting. It’s heart breaking because we had put so much time in effort into bonding with her on her terms and it felt like we bonded with her, but now we’re back to almost zero. She can be so incredibly sweet and so angry in less than a second. Today I pet her head like she loves (she loafed up and closed her eyes and chattered a little) then all the sudden my hand is getting bit and she’s lunging/grunting at me, I did The high pitch squeal and everything to show her it hurt (which it really does! She’s a huge bunny) then a few seconds later she’s letting me pet her again she put her head down and ASKED FOR PETS, so I obliged I did It very slow and gave her time in between each pet for her to leave if she wanted, then yet again I’m being lunged/grunted at I moved before I was Bit. Then I moved To the other side of the room and decided to just pick up some hair clumps because she’s shedding like crazy she watches me and eventually charges me again. This isn’t new exactly when we feed her pellets often times she’s been aggressive and even though she’s eating them out of my hand she bites the hand that’s literally feeding her as if she thinks I’m taking them away. I thought maybe she was thinking I found pellets and I’m taking them away so she lunged and I showed Her it’s hair and she sniffed and seemed satisfied, I move Farther away and just go to pick up the clump to throw it out and I’m lunged at and grunted at. She then jumped into her xpen area and I left. Usually when she bites me and I leave But this time I wanted To try and show her that I’m not a threat and I’m not leaving. I gave Up however because she got me pretty good the last two days and now I flinch Whenever this adorable little terrorist makes any movements. She’s been eating and pooping normal, drinking water and peeing normal. Sometimes after she bites us she flops over. She is such a floppy baby. So it seems odd that she does these aggressive or defensive things then flops in front of us. We’ve done everything at her pace and are constantly thinking of ways to make her happy and it feels like all the sudden past two weeks we’re back to the first day we ever got her… except when we got her she didn’t show any anger she just stayed scared of us for a long time with a food related bite here and there. But this anger is so new. We always let her come to us when she wants love we occasionally go read and hang out in her room for awhile her xpen is her safe place same with the dig box we made her. She used to sprint towards me and ask for pets because I give Her the best pets and now I have To go in the room and stay on the ground till she lets me SOMETIMES pet her. Anyways i dont know what to do, she seems healthy, teeth seem normal size, back nails might need a little trim but other than that nothing is different or seems wrong.
