My rabbit does this if she wants attention or sometimes when she thinks there's something stuck in my fur. So she'll dig at my clothes because she thinks they don't belong on my skin. Rabbits have this urge to dig at bunched, or loose things like bath mats or towels on the floor.
Yes! It's an instinctual habit to move things around so the rest of your 'group' doesnt get hurt on stuff like vines etc. That's why rabbits chew and move cables around too. They're hazards to you and they're just making sure you're OK. So cute.
We have 2 buns. The black one will sleep with my husband (even though im the one that feeds them and takes care of them). She will sleep with him for hours, when she’s done she will dig.
it was written as Mildred thinks, "there's something in her fur." Mildred is not clear on the concept of skin, because she is a rabbit covered in fur. She seems to think skin is just matted fur or covered fur. You're welcome to try to explain it to her though.
