Not necessarily.I have 2 golden retreivers, which were part of the family before bunny. Bunny lives indoors but when i first got him I kept him in his cage so they could all get used to each other from a safe distance. I then got bunny out and had them all together with me in the room. I did this for a few months But now bunny jumps all over the dogs, he kisses them on the nose and they lie side by side together. I think bunny thinks he is a dog too! It is a very sweet relationship they all have. Sometimes my friends dog comes to stay and she is petrified of bunny...bunny on the otherhand doesnt care. It is a typical case of the elephant and the mouse!!!!! I have never had a cat so not sure what would happen there. I think as long as all the pets know that all are part of the family it should be fine

Why does my dwarf rabbit run away from other big rabbit when they meet making noises?

Your dwarf rabbit is probably afraid of your larger rabbit. You should consider supervised bonding time where neither has the chance to attack the other. If your smaller rabbit can overcome its fear through repeated exposure, your rabbits will probably learn to be good friends. You will have to simply give it time and reassure your dwarf rabbit that he's not going to be hurt. The House Rabbit Society has some good tips on bonding rabbits (http://rabbit.org/faq/sections/introductions.html).

How do you talk to a rabbit?

You have to understand their body language. If your rabbit grunts or tries to pee on what its grunting at it is saying "I don't like when you do that. I'm mad" If a rabbit is mounting another rabbit, the rabbit on top is saying "I'm the dominant rabbit. I'm in charge here." If the rabbit on the bottom is staying still, it is saying "I know you are in charge." If the rabbit on the bottom is trying to get on top, it is saying "You are not in charge, I am." If your rabbits are not fixed, these mounting behaviors might mean they are mating. If your rabbit has its ears flat back on its back and you are petting it and the rabbit is staying still, it is saying "That feels good. You are making me calm." If you stop petting your rabbit, and it nudges or nips you, it is saying " Why did you stop? Keep petting me." If your rabbit is laying down it is saying "I am tired. I am calm" If one rabbit is laying down in the same cage as another rabbit it is telling you "I feel calm with this other rabbit. They are not a threat. I can trust them." If two or more rabbits are laying very close to each other or next to each other, they are saying "This other rabbit is my buddy. I trust them very much." If one rabbit is grooming the other, it is saying " This rabbit is my friend."

Why are rabbits hunted by people?

Well if it's a wild rabbit that you see in the wood it is because they think you will hurt it that you are a hunter. If you meant a pet rabbit it is because it wants it freedom, it wants to be able to run free and they don't really like to cuttle as dogs and cats. And of course they are really scared by almost everything ------------------------------- As with most wild creatures a rabbit's survival instinct will cause it to run - attempt to escape - from anything they fear might be a predator. -------------------------------

prey, they are eaten by foxes, snakes, wolves, and other predatorsA rabbit is definitely prey. It's herbivorous, so it would have no motivation to attack other animals or even bugs, since it could not digest them. On the other hand, rabbits make and excellent meal for any kind of predator, such as a wolf.A rabbit is a predator to plants and small insects, and is a prey to other animals.


Can you take your pet rabbit outside?

The short answer is a qualified yes. If you want to take your rabbit outside, you should:Make sure that it has a contained area from which it cannot escapeMake sure that the area is free from toxins, such as weed killer, fertiliser, pollution (like car exhaust) or other chemicalsMake sure that there are no unfamiliar dogs, cats or other animals around which may attack and/or kill the rabbit, or which the rabbit thinks might attack or kill it.Make sure the weather is fine - not too hot or cold, not wet.It is inadvisable to attempt walking a rabbit in a park, as the grass has most likely been treated with chemicals and there are likely to dogs around.Also note that rabbits are prey animals, and that they can become nervous or afraid when they see predators. It is possible that a rabbit may be literally frightened to death if it thinks that a predator may attack it, no matter how illogical it may seem to the human mind.another answer: You should be ok, just make sure it doesn't get away and that it doesn't get too hot or cold. Also be careful with eating too much grass and such because it can get diahreah.
