Some days, I'm so glad to have rabbits. I had a rough day last week. I trekked out to the rabbit barn later in that afternoon to make sure everyone had water.
I could feel the stress drain away as soon as I got out there. Most of the rabbits were sound asleep, since it was mid-afternoon. They looked so peaceful. But Maximilian, one of the junior bucks, was stretched out on his side - at first glance, he looked dead! I scrutinized him a moment, and then a paw twitched. His nose was next and suddenly all four feet moved in sequence. His nose was next, then the feet stopped and he licked his lips.
Apparently, rabbits dream.

My creme buck, Sam-wise, sleeps like that on his side. Sometimes in the afternoon you can see him yawn and then do a sort of hop/flop that lands him on his side almost on his back and he snoozes and twitches for a bit as he naps.
