  Can rabbits actually “bond” with their humans? I don’t know, but I think my bunny might have bonded herself to my hubby. We had her for a few months before she was old enough to be spayed. She is always giving him kisses and is far more tolerant of anything he does than she is of me. She always gives me more attitude than she gives him, and will snuggle with him longer and more often than me. Is this because I’m mom and I enforce the rules, or does she really like my hubby better?

  Bunnies won’t bond with humans like they would to another bunny but they, like all animals, can definitely have a favourite human. Both my bunnies like me best because I take care of them way more than my husband. One of our cats likes me best and one likes my husband best. Sometimes there is no rhyme or reason to it, they just have a preference for no apparent reason. Some animals seem to prefer women, some men.
