        Hello again. I have yet another quetion. Sometimes Lily likes to come up and nudge me really lightly. It’s really cute, but I don’t know how I should respond. Haha. I don’t know if she wants me to play. I’ve tried to grab a toy when she does that and she doesn’t seem intersted. Or is she just saying “hey mom, I love you”?

          Aspen will do that to me so i just pay attention to her and pet her. I think when they nudge they just want attention but im not positive. I know when aspen nudges thats what she wants, just some bunny love!

            yes, i agree it sounds like she’s asking for attention, not so much to “play” but usually for head pets… sometiems they will nudge and then run away… i take that to kinda mean, “yup, i’m still here, just wanna let you know… but i’m going away now…”

              I’ve noticed when cheeky does it to me, it just means “move outta the way” and he just hops over the part he just nudged (arm, leg) He’s so cute. When he wants to be petted he assumes the “bundled position” which is feet tucked under the body and sorta laying down. The ears are down and the eyes are closed. Then he sleeps while I give him a nice face and side rub

                  I agree, my two do a light nudge and the translation for it is “notice me, love on me” and if it is a harder nudge they either want me to move or want thier dinner or treat pronto!.

                    He, he, he – I call them “little bunny head butts”.

                    With my two it means “Hi, what’s going on?”. Or, like Bekas buns, “yup, I’m still here, just wanna let you know… but I’m going away now…”
