when i got a rabbit i didnt know how diva they act

It's no wonder why Doomguy was so pissed when the demons killed his pet bunny Daisy. These creatures are adorable

KZread: this guy looks like he wants to know about bunny thumping "Me watching only gameplays"

i think bunny's are proof the world isint completely hopeless

Don’t own a Rabbit, never watched any Rabbit videos. But this got recommended to me so here I am. Actually learned something too. Good video.

When my bunny thumps because he senses danger, I pet him real quick, then search for the danger with him by calling out loud the mischief who dared scare my bunneh, before petting him a longer when the excitement died down a little ! 😊

Rabbits also thump when they are horny, excited, feeling playful, annoyed, frustrated and rarely, when they are scared. A rabbit on alert is not looking to be pet and the first thing to do is investigate the situation. My rabbit is a massive diva on all accounts and does not thump in fear ever. However, one night she did and was on full alert, eyes big, ears pricked , tense body. I heard the sound that was triggering her and picked her up and took her to go see....it was a mouse stuck in a bucket. The sound of it trying to jump out was what triggered her. 😂

As cute as thumping is my bunny literally thumps at nothing, I can be laying in bed reading a book and he will be just chilling out, nothing will change in the room and he will just start freaking out and stomping his feet super loud, this only happens during the evening and I always just ignore him or just ask him what's wrong every time he does it, I dont get up I just call out to him from where I am, and when I do check out what's going on there's literally nothing wrong, but when I start talking to him he stops, he will stomp a few more times but the more I talk the less he does it. Hes a wierdo, my cute lil wierdo

My old bunny stomps as a display of excitement. If i come near, he'll get really energetic, and if I give him attention, the stomping and binkying starts. I can't seem to find an example of this online or anyone saying that it has nothing to do with fear, annoyance, or being spoiled. I know for sure it's purely a habit of playful expression, but I don't know exactly how it started. It's not a bad habit as you mentioned either, because when I leave him alone, he doesn't continue to stomp for attention even if I'm in the same room and in view. He's 14 years old, so it's possible he gave up on bad habits that weren't encouraged but kept the temptation to stomp? Whatever the reason, it's adorable. (I know what his fear/pain stomping looks like and can tell the difference.)

Ours only thumped 1 time initially when we said he couldn't chew on the wooden furniture. Another time when one of us stomped, he thumped 10 times as if to say "Hey, I'm the thumper here." For 6 years now, no thumping, just lots of peace and love.

This is an old post but just came across it and felt compelled to reply. My male rabbit does the same thumping and it annoys the crap out of me. I have 2 rabbits and one thumps if I show the other the slightest affection but more irritating is when I have to put him back in his hutch...he stomps then runs off and a long chase ensues around the yard (not for the faint-hearted) I feel like rabbit are more spoiled divas as some folks commented. I'm so over it!

This is so sweet, and also very interesting. I saw a video where a rabbit stomped because of the sound of a vacuum cleaner. I find it funny, because I didn't know rabbits stump and why they do. Then, KZread suggested this video, and I clicked it right away as I was curious about the matter. You're so friendly, and I see you know rabbits very well. Thanks for sharing this curiosity about rabbits with us.

I went Awwwwww when the rabbit gave her a high five!

I had a bun called Verity who used to thump whenever I brushed my really long hair with a paddle brush in the upstairs bathroom. It took me a while to work it out, but she pretty much hated the sound of hair brushing. I had to remind myself to brush my hair downstairs, but if I forgot she was luckily easily comforted with treats and a cuddle. I miss my little V.

I hung my overalls to dry in the lounge room because of the rain, my bun thumped for an hour. Didn't put the two together before. Even I was taken aback once, when I forgot I hung my work clothes inside. I guess it does look like an intruder. Keep up the good work Bunny Lady.

I dont even have a bunny nor im planning to have one, but her cute attitude its so genuine that it caught my attention.

Quite impressive quality video 👍 not too fancy but simple and deliver the ideas more efficient wity no nonsense

What an incredibly verbose approach to explaining that wild rabbits thump as a warning of potential danger.

Nice and useful video!

First time my rabbit thumped scared me. I was alone at night out in the country. At the time didn't know why she was thumping but got the idea probably something outside scared her. So I was a bit scared myself - possibly a bear was prowling. Fortunately, her cage was in the house with me.

Oh I never used to notice because I most of the time my rabbits would be on my bed or on the couch Very informative :3

I came here for research because we are new to the Bunny thing. We’ve had ours for two months and he’s spoiled rotten. But today he didn’t get his way. He got in to my book shelf which I have bunny proofed but since he Houdini and can’t get in to our out of anything he got in to the book shelf. My daughter took him out and he stomped for like 20 min throwing a tantrum. So I wondered if he felt scared or was angry and this video answered my question. Lol Thank you! I love your channel and information. My daughter and I think you’re so sweet and nice. She said to say thank you too!

Dis is good Ms b0ss. Please keep taking care of Hop's extended family. Please do not send mail this Easter. Hop still does not understand the egg thing.

There is a few reasons a rabbit/bunny thumps. They can give a warning thump, as in "Don't come any closer" type thump. They can thump to say they are annoyed or angry. They know that if they thump, they can get attention (My oldie did it every night, because he wanted attention, then he was happy once he got it). There is more, but would be quite a list, it is very important to read and understand your family member on what he or she is telling you. A nice video ^^

We once had a rabbit and we use to let her roam around in the garden for a while before putting her back in her hutch. She use to stomp her foot when she got put back inside and then we decided that it was best for her to live in the garden. She even dug herself a barrow. ❤️

When I was in middle school my rabbit would snort and thump at me when I got home from school and she would ignore me for a while. She lived in my bedroom and only liked me. If my mom tried to come into my room she'd chase her out. Greta looked a lot like the rabbit in this video except she had longer fur. Miss her. Had her for about 10 years after adopting her from a rescue in 6th grade.

Excellent videos

Calming video

I've never seen a rabbit do a hi-5 before, and I've had 8 bunns. I know they can be trained for little tricks but I never thought I'd see that one! :-)

GASP!!! YOUR RABIT IS SO SMART!!!!

I love rabbits, they are such cuties.

It's 1am but I must know the secret of the thump

Rabbits are so cute, they can’t be intimidating when they thump. My wife and I just saw aww when our little Holland Lop thumps

so cute bun

I saw a majestic white bunny, I clicked, stayed for information and left a little bit more educated!

They really are super smart

Bunnies is my childhood pet it was so great and lovely

Rabbits are so freekin cute

I heard a bang noise in my closet and when I opened it, my bunny thumped and her ears were very forward and a minute later she thumped again. Its weird how I was scared by the noise and so was she, but it wasn't loud or startling, it was just a weird noise that made no sense, and my bunny isn't scared of loud noises

So rabbits kinda thump for the same reason we would stomp our feet: To either express anger or fear. Or to let others know that there’s a problem.

BUNNY!!!! i like rabbits, so cute and fluffy

Great video!! What would be the reason behind my bunny thumping while having zoomies and doing binkies? It's super confusing... He doesn't do it all the time, though.

I admit I know why, I just wanted to watch footage of them doing it. 😔

My bonded pair used to switch who was top rabbit. The top rabbit would only thump when he sensed danger and once when he was mad at me for eating lox. The scout rabbit (the submissive rabbit would always be the first to hop up to me while the other watched and expected me to come to them with the treat) would only thump when they were excited by a treat - on the level of "I'm so excited I could pee," especially when they heard me loading up the treat ball.

My buck is 8 months old and has thumped for the first time in his life after I returned from a neighbor who has a german sheppard. Is it because I touched the dog briefly?

Its been five months now, i notice this Thumping thing for the first time, at night it came and sleep next to me( almost every night) This morning when i got up it looked at me and thump once. Hope its not a bad sign

What type of rabbit is this? I rescued one living in my front yard that looks exactly like this with blue eyes and one small black circle(kinda mascara like) on it's eye. It's head, body, etc look just like this, thanks.

hey there! first of all, thank you so much for your videos! I have a question. my bunny hit his head by accident at the cage. Should I be worried now?
