  Hi everyone,
  
  Our rabbit, Junie, make this kind of squeaky/whinny kind of noise when she is getting pets. I am not sure how to explain the noise so haven’t been able to determine what is it. She doesn’t move away or looks upset but I still am not positive if it is a happy content noise or not.
  
  She’s a fairly vocal rabbit. She’ll grunt if she is upset and boxes and thumps (unlike our dutch mix, Frankie). I have a video but you will have to turn it up a little to really hear the noise. It happens around the 3 second mark.
  
  Thanks for all the help!

  Awwww so cute!
  
  My Bertha makes little noises like this sometimes when she’s getting pets, I think it’s happy (especially given her body language)! Like the bunny equivalent of “awwww yeah that’s the spot!”
  
  I wonder if it’s a female bunny thing? My male buns have never done anything similar.
