  Hello,
  
  Ever since I have had my rabbit, when I scratch her back and bum she always nods her head. I have not been able to find anywhere online of something similar and was wondering if anyone could help explain why she does this ?
  
  To me it seems like shes enjoying being scratched, but I wanna make sure its not anything else which could be bad.
  
  Would really appreciate if someone could give me some insight into this!

  So she bobs her head up and down? I’ve not seen any of my buns do that while being pet, but maybe some of the other members have. Sometimes rabbits will like the floor or something in front of them when you scratch their bum. It’s like a lick reflex. :p
  I don’t think it’s anything bad. If it was distressing to her, she would hop away. I agree it seems she likes being scratched.
