  Nugget and my bf have a very special relationship and I know she’s more comfortable with him and than me. He was the one that picked her up from the pet store and surprised me later when I got home, so they had more bonding time together. Anyway, she loves to crawl all over him and any time she ends up on his lap, she likes to get up on his chest and scratch or dig at him. It doesn’t usually hurt so we know she’s just playing or trying to get him naked . Or does she want something to dig? Or want attention? I brought home a phone book the other day and thought she would scratch it up, but she didn’t seem interested at all. Instead I caught her having a long scratching session with the dude again and you can watch it here on Youtube.
  
  Does it look like she’s trying to undress him? Or is it just me? She also kissed him twice that same night, it was the most adorable thing I had ever seen! She’s not that affectionate with me, maybe it’s because I’m a girl…

  Bunnies are natural burrowers! Maybe a fleece blanket (just make sure bunny does not ingest it) for her would be good. My girl bun likes to do blanket binkies and dig in her blanket.
  
  Hahha, some bunnies have hoomin preferences. It is not unusual at all. I have a girl and she LOVES to kiss specific areas of my face, and will only kiss my boyfriend’s forehead. She was picked out by me so I think she prefers me, however I think she loves her Mister a bit too much

  My Mini-Rex used to do the same thing. He loved to dig at my clothes. He would also enjoy if I put a towel or small blanket out at playtime. He loved to dig and bunch it.

  My little girl used to love to dig at our clothes when she was younger. Our newest addition, Hugo, seems to like digging too. So what I did was create a diggy box for them out of cardboard and stuck shredded newspaper in the box.
  
  I understand the preference for specific humans. Skipper is a totallllllll Daddy’s Girl and loves him more than me. =p I’ll call her name and she’ll look at me and be like, “What do you want Ma?” But if the bf calls her, she comes running at break neck speed to see him.
