Rabbits might give a loud thump with their hind legs to show that this is their territory, and they would like you to stay away. A rabbit will also do this behavior to show displeasure of something, such as an empty food bowl that it would like you to fill. Be cautious if your rabbit is thumping its feet repeatedly toward you - a bunny may thump so hard that it could break one of its hind feet. Some rabbits do do this quite a lot but it's not really anything to be majorly worried about as in most cases it will probably just mean leave me alone.

Running circles around you is a sign of affection.

Rabbits that are ready to mate circle a prospective partner. Also, a rabbit wanting to play may circle you. You won't know the difference until he/she mounts your foot!! Check out http://www.lagomania.com/qa.php/#4, for more rabbit Q & A.

There are two reasons why rabbits circle your feet.

  1. They want to play. Domestic rabbits are social animals and they need attention. Pet them, feed them a treat, or give him/her attention.
  2. They want to mate. Young rabbits who circle your feet mean they want to mate. If you listen closely, you can hear them making "oinking" noises. They might even hump some smooth objects. To prevent this, you should spay or neuter him/her.
