Rabbit Behavior

This is simply too amusing to not share...

We have a 6 month old rabbit named Otis.  He lives in our house and has free range as long as we are home to keep an eye on him.  Otis does all sorts of entertaining things that make us laugh.  His newest thing is running, or should I say hopping, circles around our feet.
Every time I sit on the floor Otis will hop circles around me.  According to The San Diego Chapter of the House Rabbit Society circling is part of a rabbit's courting behavior.  So, I guess this is more or less a rabbit's version of "Hey baby, I seem to have lost my number, can I have yours?".  The only exception is that in nature this actually works for the bunny.  I thought it was sweet that my bunny would love me so much.  I didn't think anything else of it.
Last night, the rabbit started to hop circles around my husband's feet as husband was in the kitchen...Now, to preface this bit of information...I have been telling my husband for months that the rabbit was trying to establish himself as the Alpha Male in our home.  There have been times when Otis was hiding under the couch and husband was trying to flush him out, that Otis would start grunting (a sign of disapproval) and then literally charge at my husband.  The rabbit has never charged at me.  Ever.  I laughingly told husband that the rabbit was just trying to show his dominance and show that he was the Alpha.  Since then, from time to time, husband will look at Otis, thump his chest, and say "Alpha male.  Right here."  We always thought it was a bit of a joke.
Last night, I think the rabbit got the best of my husband.  Another rabbit owner said that sometimes her male will circle the females and lower ranking males as a sign of dominance.  Apparently, a 5 pound lop eared rabbit named Otis is currently the dominant male in our household.

But not to worry...I still love my husband more.  :)

and...before anyone can say anything...Yes, we will be getting the rabbit neutered as soon as we can find a vet in our area who is familiar enough with rabbits to safely perform the surgery.
