You may have noticed that your bunny makes sounds with their teeth. This is one of the ways your bunny will communicate with you. Paying attention to how loud their teeth grinding or chattering is can give you an insight into how they are feeling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Teeth grinding can be a sign of pleasure or pain. Bunnies will grind their teeth gently as a sign of happiness and content. However, they will loudly grind their teeth if they are in pain or discomfort.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Gentle teeth grinding often occurs when your bunny is being petted. Louder tooth grinding is often less continuous than gentle teeth grinding and accompanied by other body languages that indicate discomfort. Knowing these signs will allow you to understand your bunny\u2019s signals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When you pet your bunny, you\u2019ll often hear her teeth chatter. This is actually your bunny purring! Just like a cat will purr when they are happy and content, bunnies do the same thing but with their teeth. <\/p>\n\n\n\nMy Bunny Grinds Her Teeth When I Pet Her<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
