  Hello, my bunny has been active and happy this morning so I decided to pick her up, not far off the ground (I’m on my knees), and give her a soft hug (I do that a lot). But today when I did she “coughed?” I don’t know, it sounded like a single cough. She is still acting fine but it was abnormal. Is that normal?

  It’s not really possible to say. The best you can do is to observe her closely for the next few days. If she coughs again or you see thick-ish snot or she starts sneezing a lot, she could have a rabbit cold, which is caused by bacteria.

  Ok, I’ll keep an eye on her.

  Was it a cough? Or a grunt? Rabbit grunts sound weird sometimes.

  As LBJ says, rabbits can grunt. I had a very vocal bun who would grunt if displeased.
