We want Harry and Flora and Iris and Lily to eliminate in a particular place, to chew certain objects and not others, and to refrain from communicating with us via biting-and that's just a partial list. A more detailed case history would help us to know what's causing these bites and how to deal with them. The slightest little thing will terrify her, and it seems like all she wants to do is hide under the bed. One of the most useful skills to acquire in living with Molly is to see things from the rabbit's point of view. It's a very different world down there, to your small, sensitive, prey animal.
Shyness can be of great survival value in many situations.
Molly may be able to learn that as a safe, protected house rabbit she doesn't need to be quite that alert to possible danger, but as with the biting bunny, there's nothing abnormal about shyness-in fact, confidence is much rarer in rabbits. Each of the questions above has been dealt with in detail in previous issues of the House Rabbit Journal. If you need help with a specific problem, check your back issues. I hope that you've gotten a sense of the underlying principles that unite the various solutions, so that you can work with your rabbit to solve any communication gaps.
