The running is normal and most bunnies run in circles and do sprints around the room, often doing little jumps and twists, called binkies, if they are happy.


But... if your rabbit is thumping, she is scared or unhappy. Is there a noise or something going on at the time that might be upsetting her?

Have you been to the house rabbit society website yet? There are loads of articles about care and behaviour that you may find useful. The website is www.rabbit.org


Good luck, and let me know if you want more links - I have loads!!

I think it could be bordness. And as for the stamping try and give her alot of attention as this means she could be scared or unhappy. God luk.
Most rabbits have poor eyesight up close so sometimes can run into things im constantly getting butted in the legs by mine. He ran into the door yesterday doing like a bunny hop ( no pun) off of it was loud i thought he hurt himself but obviously not as he did it again bout 5 mins later. mine usually thumps in the middle of the night when someone gets up to get a glass of water for about 5 mins.
