  • Understanding Bunnies, Part 2

    Lesson two: how to tell if it’s time to feed your bunny.

    It’s always time to feed your bunny. But there are different ways to communicate how late you are with feeding your bunny. For example:

    Feed me now:

    Why haven’t you fed me yet?

    gus is checking to see why breakfast hasn't been served yet

    Lesson one: the subtleties of bunny communication.

    Mildly interested in you:

    gus is slightly interested in what I'm doing

    Despises your very existence:

    See the difference?

    Next time: how to tell when it’s time to feed your bunny.

  • My New Domain

    So, we moved to a new house.

    Mum and dad say things aren’t quite all unpacked or set up yet, but as long as my food bowl & litter box are in the right spot, I don’t mind. Besides, I’ve got lots of chinning & sniffing to do.

    Oh, and I also need to sit and admire my new domain.

    gus and his domain
    *ahem*

    betsy wonders if I'm just taking a photo or if I've got treats

    Oh, right, sorry Betsy… I mean “our” domain.

    Sorry, what’s that, dad? “Your” house? Ha ha ha, nope! It’s MINE!

    Now bring me some treats.

    Much better.

  • What Do You Mean, “Moving?”

    Wait, what do you mean by “moving?” I didn’t give you permission to move!

    buns are displeased with the lack of furniture

    We’re just going to sit here until you put all the furniture back the way it was.

    Even though dad says we’re not moving far, and that we’ll have a yard to play in (while supervised), a garden to grow food & treats for us, and a bigger house to explore, I’m still not happy with the changes.

  • Give Me Treats!!

    Hmm? What? Did you say treats? Treats! I want treats!

    Gimme gimme gimme. Ignore Gus, just give me some treats!

  • Our Bunny Slave

    Dad says he is our slave and has to do all this work in preparing our food for us. (Well, duh, obviously.)

    Honestly I don’t see what the problem is – it doesn’t look like much work to me.

    Though next time I’d prefer if he put that food in my bowl instead of storing it. In fact, just give it all to me!

  • Dinner Nomming

    Obviously he takes way too long in preparing it, but eventually dad does bring us dinner.

    OM NOM NOM.

    OK, thanks for dinner dad! …Now go away.
