Bunnies Get the Zoomies!
Zoomies are when a bunny suddenly runs really fast, jumps, or spins. It looks like they are having a happy, silly race!
Why they do it
- Happy energy: They feel good and want to move.
- Exercise: Running keeps them healthy and strong.
- Playtime: They want to explore and have fun.
- After the bathroom: Sometimes they zoom right after they go potty.
How to tell it's zoomies
- They run back and forth very fast.
- They jump up in the air (this is called a binky).
- They twist, kick their back legs, or spin around.
What you should do
- Watch quietly and smile — your bunny is happy!
- Give them space. Don’t chase or try to grab them while they zoom.
- Make the room safe: pick up small toys and close doors so they don’t bump into things.
- Wait until they calm down before you pet them.
Fun and safe ideas
- Make a soft tunnel or a clear path for them to run through.
- Give chew toys and things to hop over.
- Play with them before nap time so they can burn off energy.
Zoomies are normal and usually mean your bunny is happy and healthy. Watch them, keep them safe, and enjoy the funny bunny zoom!
