My son has lovingly fenced off a part of his garden so that his rabbit can at last have the space to run around. He is clearly enjoying it immensely.

However, twice now I have seen one of his cats (male) jump into the enclosure and present itself to the rabbit. The opportunity is taken up willingly, and despite some howling from the cat, he makes no real effort to run away.

It seems so wrong on so many levels. smile

My seven year old grand daughter finds it highly amusing, but we are unsure just how much she understands - probably more than you'd think.

Has anybody observed this behaviour before, and is there a way to stop it?

The cat needs an appropriate boyfriend.

No advice other than to watch your footing when entering the enclosure.

Careful, he could end up with a house full of rats.

Our female German Shepherd humps the neighbours male chocolate lab. Both seem to get something from it because it is a consistent "sniff bottoms, hump, run around the garden". At least it is the same species I suppose.

Basically you need to face up to the fact that you have pair of gay animals in a dom/sub relationship.

On the scale of 1 to weird, the male chinchilla that used to suck itself off on top of the telly when we were all watching it was the best.....never did it without an audience.

Never realised that was a thing. I wonder what they look like? A pussy with buck teeth and big ears.

I imagine they would sell for big bucks.

It's an animal thing. Many years ago I owned a Border Collie, which was very friendly with a few doors up Staffie. She even bossed the Staff. I've seen her take a bone from the mouth of the Staff, by making the Staff back off. Another neighbour had a JRT, which fancied the Collie when she was in heat. JRT got chased, but the Staff had no idea, till the Collie mounted the Staff. Even then the Staff had no idea that the Collie had the hots for him.
