When Bunnies Go Bad by Clea Simon

Remember Professor Dolittle, who could talk to the animals? Make an entertaining visit to the extraordinary world of the curious Pru Marlowe, animal-sensitive and animal trainer,  whose informal sideline in investigation brings her close to danger and crime.  Pru's unique selling point is, not being able to talk to the animals, but her ability to tune in to communications with all manner of non-human animals so that she can acquire intelligence of a most unusual nature.  Set in small town America, this is a good thriller in the Pet Noir genre, and will keep you guessing. It's a fun read.
