  I always pull away or give her a little nudge to knock her off. Not sure if I shouldn’t be encouraging that or if I should just let her get some exercise. Is there a best practice when it comes to being sexually assaulted by an adorable little furball?

  Haha I don’t think there’s a right or wrong way. I mean, personally I’d probably stop it but it’s okay if you don’t lol. You could always give her a stuffy to hump so she gives your arm a break.

  What about getting her a male rabbit to please her? My female bunny gets grumpy sometimes and will fight me off. Usually with grunts oink noises and lunging her paws or biting me. And maybe some loud thumps once she hides.
  
  Is it their hormones? Surprisingly, she never got angry or tried biting any of the kids at the park who want to hold her. The most she’ll do is try running away but she never bites / lunges at anyone if she’s not in her home.

  Please dont get a second bunny to “please her”. It more often than not will end in blood. Likewise, dont get her pregnant because shes hormonal. The only way to top it is through spaying.

  yes it’s hormones and the only thing to fix it is getting spayed. getting a second bunny is not good advise. they’ll either just fight or give you a dozen little babies you’ll need to take care of.

  With all due respect, you DO NOT get a rabbit to ‘please’ another hormonal bun Unless you’re wanting a litter or a fight

  Oh great, I wasn’t subscribed to this thread so I never got any emails about replies. Don’t worry, I’ve been diligent with making sure no bunny humping is taking place when she’s around other bunnies and I haven’t gotten her a stud to play around with. It’s cute how when she first comes into contact with another bunny they nuzzle each other a little though.
