Rabbits might grunt for a few different reasons:

  • if the grunt is like a growl, the rabbit might be angry
  • if the grunt is softer and repetitive, the rabbit might be excited (it could be playing, or it could be sexually stimulated)
  • when your rabbit is hungry it will grunt

Bunnies can make various noises such as grunting, honking, or teeth grinding to communicate different emotions such as fear, pain, or pleasure. It's important to pay attention to the context in which the noises are made to understand what your bunny is trying to communicate.If the noises seem unusual or concerning, it's best to consult a veterinarian to rule out any health issues.

Your rabbit could be relaxed and making a snoring sound that sounds like groaning. You should get the rabbit checked out to be sure it is not suffering from a respiratory infection however, just to be sure.

Rabbits grunt if they are mad or very excited! If the grunt sounds like a growly yell, then the rabbit is mad. If the rabbit is running around, playing, and grunting repeatedly and quietly, then it's more likely the rabbit is excited (and/or sexually stimulated). See the related link below for more info about rabbit body language and communication.

If your rabbit is happy it will make a kind of grunting noise. Not all rabbits do this, my previous bun didn't! If your rabbit does this, you will probably find it running or bouncing around because it's happy.

If your bunny squeaks, that means he/she is scared. If you have ever heard a guinea pig squeak then a rabbit sounds almost exactly the same.

Your rabbit will thump his back leg if he is agitated , annoyed, frightened, or he feels threatened. My bunny occasionally thumps his leg not because of any of the above, and goes off into a binky! Also, the size of your bunny will determine how loud the thump is. My rabbit is a holland lop cross otter and he is in the garden. However when he thumps we can hear him in the house and so can our neighbours!

Finally; when a rabbit is seriously hurt or even dying, most buns will scream. It is not dissimilar to a child of under fives scream. If your rabbit is playing or in it's hutch and you hear it scream, my best advice is to take it to the vets immediately and get it checked over.

Rabbits squeal or scream because someone/something scared it, like when they are being chased by predators or in distress.

One person writes that it is most likely because they are happy to see you. But, generally, gentle grunting is what rabbits do when they're happy to see you, and they circle your ankles (if they make any noise at all). Guinea pigs often squeal in excitement or happy anticipation, but not rabbits.

Well, boy rabbits will make a grunting sound too show distress or anger. Some rabbits ( if sometimes young ) will practice. To see how it feels, and know how it works.

If your rabbit is making grunting and squeaking sounds it probably means she wants some space or quiet. Just make sure your not disturbing her to much especially if she's pregnant.

What sound or movement do rabbit make?

A rabbit can make many sounds, such as squeak. My friend has a bunny and when I visited it, it had squeaked a lot when I met. It almost sounded like a shriek. I don't know if that is the same for your bunny, however I would be on the look out for any weird noises. Sometimes, the bunny my friend has whines, almost like a dog. I don not think that bunnies have a certain sound, I think the noises they make fit to their personality. Hope this helps!! :-)
