Is it common for pet rabbits to lick people incessantly?
There was a pet rabbit where I lived recently. Whenever I'd go to its cage to visit it, it would lick my forearm for up to five or ten minutes at a time. Is it because of the salt content in the sweat on my arm that attracts it?
By the way, it had one or two salt lick things in its cage, and it would still lick my forearm. Maybe it was just showing affection?
It could be the salt or it could be affection... most rabbits won't lick people... but i have one rabbit that licks me and i KNOW that he does not have a salt deficiency... so it could be either one depending on the rabbit.... some just like you...
