Slide one hand under thorax to secure forelimbs. Second hand lifts
rump. Slowly tip the rabbit backwards until their spine is pressing against
your front. You can lean your body forwards as you do this to give the rabbit
further support. Do not tilt the rabbit any further back than vertical. When the rabbit is in this vertical position, squat down slightly
to bring the rabbit’s bottom on to the table top. Slide your hand forwards to
ensure the tail is un-tucked and not being sat on. Use your free hand to sex the rabbit. Do not at any point swap
hands or relax your grip of the forelimbs. Do not lean forward too much and
squash the rabbit.
