Understanding Rabbit Mounting Behavior Regardless of Gender

Unneutered rabbits often display mounting behavior. It is important to note that this behavior is not limited to male rabbits, nor does it only occur between rabbits of opposite sexes. When rabbits want to establish dominance, they frequently use mounting as a way to assert control over the other.

Male rabbits in heat may sometimes mount furniture or even their owners. Owners can consider providing toys or towels to help the rabbits release their emotions. However, it's important to keep these items clean to prevent injuries or infections.

While toys can help alleviate the behavior temporarily, the long-term solution is to neuter the rabbits. Neutering is key to ensuring the rabbits remain healthy and safe over time.
