Do rabbits hold grudges?

Studies have found that the act of forgiveness can reap great benefits to a human's physical and mental health. 

Someone's just got to tell our bunny friends! 

Rabbits are known to hold grudges against both other bunnies and us humans. Don’t say we didn’t warn you!

Depending on how much they feel you’ve wronged them, buns can hold a grudge for anywhere from a couple of hours to a few days! They show this by either shunning and ignoring their human (quite literally turning their back), refusing to take food from you and even showing aggression.

While they’re generally happy to make amends, they can be stubborn. However, giving them some nice head strokes or a massage should help if you’re unlucky enough to experience their wrath!

Adorably, bunnies who are pals will kiss and make up by touching heads and then grooming each other! Find out how to tell if your bunnies are bonded here.
