Mum has been taking a biology course lately, and the other day she told me that my markings (as seen from above) are “bilaterally symmetrical.”
Mum thought this was pretty neat and seemed very pleased with herself.
So I told her that she is bilaterally out of her mind. Then I proceeded to ignore her for the rest of the night.
I think she got the hint.

Our website was down for a few days – but we used twitter as a backup to explain what had happened:

Of course, shortly after this, Betsy had to chime in:

But I have no comment on that one.
Anyway, we kept giving dad the “stare of disapproval” until he figured out a way to work around the problem, and obviously he did manage to do something.
So anyway, that’s why our site was missing for a few days there. Sorry about that, but… it’s all dad’s fault!

Dad and mum both tell me I’ve always loved to lie in my clean litterbox – and they dug up this picture to prove their point:
This is a picture of me when I was very young – less than a year old. As you can see, I was flopping in my clean litter even back then.
I guess mum and dad saw some sort of similarity with the picture they took the other day. Or maybe they just wanted a reminder of how I was when I was little?
But I didn’t need a reminder – I know I’ve always liked clean litterbox day. I mean, who wouldn’t?

I love clean litterbox day.
It is the best.

It’s almost Easter again, which is traditionally the time of year I try to remind people that Bunnies are not Toys. We are real, living creatures that need love, care, and attention – and not just for a little while when we’re small and cute.
Yet some people still insist on giving baby bunnies as gifts to children, just because it’s Easter.
Well, I think you know what I have to say about that:
You wouldn’t give someone a cat or a dog as an Easter gift, so why would you give a rabbit?
I was “given” as a gift for Easter and then abandoned when the people I was given to got tired of caring for me (just shortly after Easter). I don’t want to see that happen to anybun again, which is why I keep bringing up this subject ever year.
Instead of giving a live rabbit, people should just stick to chocolate ones, or stuffed toys. That’ll make Easter a happier time for everyone.

Gus is usually the one who goes on and on about Easter, but it turns out I can be quite effective at getting the message across, too!
This just makes you want to do what I say, right?

Our friend (and fellow conspirator in bunny mischief) Freckles is gone.
This makes me very sad. I always saw a lot of myself in Freckles – I think we were kindred spirits or something. We kind of looked the same (sort-of) and we both liked to destroy things like phone books! (So what if that makes me a kindred spirit with almost every bunny out there?)
Me and Gus and Dad and Mum all send our sympathies to Freckles’ mum, Deb.
Freckles, we’ll miss you, but we’ll see you again someday!
-Betsy
I don’t really know what dad is trying to insinuate with this picture…
…but I approve of the overall message.
-Betsy
Easter is coming up, so it’s time to share a very important message:
You have been warned.
-Gus
Despite how this picture looks, we are not actually snuggling:
In point of fact, we are actually struggling (not snuggling) to get the best spot under the box.
It’s OK though – I can understand how you might be confused. At least now you know the truth.
