Rabbits are burrowers - their natural place is very low to the ground, or under it. Any time they are "up", they feel vulnerable to their predators. No wonder your bunny doesn't like to be held! First, make sure that you are sitting on the floor when you try to hold your bunny. If you cannot even pick her up, try holding her on your lap until she is sure you aren't going to eat her. I had a rabbit that wouldn't even let me touch her, but I patted her when she came to her food dish - and she finally figured out that handling, like food, is one of the good things in life. If she is young, you should be able to get her used to your petting and snuggling fairly quickly. If she is older (rabbits are grown up at 6 months of age), it will be hard going, but with patience she will come to love being brushed and fussed over. Once caught up, rabbits will hold very still - but remember to always be on the alert for those powerful back legs! Not only can they scratch you, which may cause you to drop your bunny, but she can kick so hard that she injures herself. Always support your bunny's back legs, so that she feels safe with you. Your veterinarian can show you just how it is done. Good luck, and remember - patience!
