An animal hypnotist claims to be the country's first "rabbit whisperer", treating pets behavioural problems. Cliff Penrose, 60, uses a special technique to put rabbits into a trance – leaving them flat on their backs with their legs in the air. He is able to hypnotise then animals by applying pressure and massaging certain parts of the body, including the belly which relaxes them.

This whole 'Whisperer' thing is getting out of hand. What's next, an algae whisperer that can come to your house and convince your fish tanks to clean themselves?

when rabbits go into a trance It may look relaxing but it isn't. Wild rabbits go like that when a predetor has got them but not killed them. They pretend to be dead to fool it. Then they suddenly struggle to escape. This can damage the rabbit's back or even kill it. There are times when a rabbit has to go on it's back but you need more that one person to do it humanely.
