Dial A Vet · Accepted Answer

Rabbits thump their hind legs as a warning sign or when they are feeling threatened, stressed, or uncomfortable. It can indicate fear, pain, or even territorial behavior. Observe your rabbit's environment for potential stressors, such as loud noises, unfamiliar people or pets, or perceived threats. Check for any signs of illness or injury, particularly if the thumping is accompanied by changes in appetite, litter box habits, or behavior. If it persists or seems excessive, consult with a vet to rule out underlying health issues. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
