Carrying Styles <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThere is a multitude of different options for holding your rabbit. Each method varies slightly from the other, but all share one similarity<\/strong>: They support and comfort the rabbit. <\/p>\n\n\n\nKeep your rabbit’s body close to yours. Keep them close<\/strong> and keep them stable<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\nOne method is to stabilize the back legs with one hand and stabilize the front legs with the other.<\/strong> With this position, the arm that is pressing your rabbit to your side is in the perfect place to act as a feeding tray or be free to gently pet your pet. <\/p>\n\n\n\nIf you find yourself in need of your opposite hand, you can set your rabbit’s feet against your abdomen<\/strong>. Now they can swivel their upper body with their curiosity, or access treats. Another option is to let their feet dangle. <\/p>\n\n\n\nDangling can seem precarious, but it is actually a sign of relaxation<\/strong>. With smaller rabbits, it is easier to tuck their feet, but for a larger rabbit, dangling is okay, provided the rest of their body is still fully supported. <\/p>\n\n\n\nWhen you set your rabbit down, place their feet first on a flat surface<\/strong>. If you’d like, you can set them on a towel or rug so their feet have more grip and, therefore, more security. <\/p>\n\n\n\nKeeping the back stabilized will keep them safe, but stabilizing their feet will keep them comfortable. <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Rabbits are adorable and soft creatures, and humans tend to want to baby them because of their size and cuteness.
