Snuggles?

[Scarlet]

On a trip to where I got Nimo from I found my new bunny, Harvey. The sellers said he’d not been handled at all and was just around two months old, he didn’t like being touched by them but went happy and content in my arms after kicking at them. When I got him home I noticed he’s a hider, small spaces? He loves them! He hides his face constantly, is very fond of blankets and physical contact.

Today is his third day in my house and he’s fallen asleep beside me before rolling onto his back and side(switching from which every hour or so), which took years for people I know to have a rabbit do and other rabbits I have had/have don’t ever do it. I know it’s the highest form of relaxed and trusting they can get. I am not sure if he thrives off being held and snuggled or if he’s just overly affectionate and clingy. Everything else but me and my spouse spook him and us he can’t stop curling up against and sleeping.

Sounds like he is just very trusting towards you and your spouse The first day we brought our Badger home, I was laying on the floor trying to bond with him and within minutes he was binkying around all over the room and eventually flopped out onto my hand. Some rabbits are just very trusting towards their humans.

Didn’t expect it, he’s very cuddly and doesn’t care if music or noises are around him as long as he can sleep snug against us. I haven’t caught him chewing anything, but he’s getting toys sometime this month as well as introduced to veggies and other treats as he’s snubbing oats a bunch and doesn’t seem as keen on half a carrot piece(quarter sized slice) as my other rabbit is.

I’m just curious, anyone know how likely he is to keep this nature to adulthood?
