Question
Whenever I am not touching my rabbit, she starts shaking, especially her legs. It seems like she cannot control it. However, this only happens when I am holding her. Is she ill?

Answer
Hi Rachel,

I am condused at what you are saying.  Your first sentence sounds like she shakes when you don't touch her, but then it sounds like she shakes when you hold her.  I am not sure what is what here.

Can you send me more information on this?  Can you be more detailed about when this happens, and some more detail of what she is doing?  Especially with the legs.  Is she stretched out, laying down when she's doing this?

Write back with a more detailed description, I'll try to help.  My gut says she's not ill, but I want to have a better understanding of what you are trying to say.
