• Not much going on here

    Lately there hasn’t been much going on around here.

    Mostly we’ve just been lounging around. You know, the usual.

    Though we did get a new cardboard box, which Betsy has been spending a lot of time in.

    gus on top of the box

    Oh, and I may have done a bit of climbing.

    But it’s no big deal. I just used it as a stepping stone to get on dad’s chair. He says these stuffed things are supposed to be bunnies, but I don’t see the resemblance.

    I do like the message printed on them, though. I approve of that.

    Honestly, nothing strange going on here at all. I don’t even know why dad bothered to take photos. Maybe he’s just bored. Which, if that’s the case, may I suggest curing your boredom dad by maybe… giving me some treats?

    Yeah, that sounds like a plan.

  • Sleeping, Again

    Some of you might remember that I like to sleep. I like to think I’ve perfected my sleeping technique. In fact, I was practicing it today:

    betsy totally flopped out This is sort of my de-facto sleeping position.

    betsy sleeping very peacefully Trust me – it is more comfortable than it looks.

    Speaking of which, dad mentioned to me that I look exactly like a previous photo he took of me in the same position.

    I guess I’m just a perfectionist.

    By the way, the nice thing about this spot is that you can’t see me on the Bunnycam when I sleep here. I mean, after all, who wants to be watched while they sleep?

  • Trick-or-Treat

    It’s Halloween today, which means it’s trick-or-treat time.

    Unfortunately, we got tricked.

    Tricked into wearing costumes. WE STRONGLY DISAPPROVE OF THIS.

    gus hates being in a costume

    I maintain that it is NEVER OK to dress a rabbit up in a costume, no matter what.

    trick-or-treat bunnies At least we got some treats out of the deal.

    But mum and dad had better watch out – Betsy says we should go chew something of theirs as retribution for the unforgivable acts of:

    1. Picking us up; and,
    2. Dressing us in costumes

    I think I agree with her. Time to go plot our revenge!

  • A New Challenger Has Appeared

    Lately dad has been lamenting over how much of a mess we make in our area, saying things like we’ve “gotten worse” and “stop making such a huge mess” and of course his exasperated cry of “I just cleaned your area!”

    Whatever, dad. Gus and I have no idea what he’s talking about. Our area is just fine, thank you. And the hay that is scattered all over the floor – well, as we’ve talked about previously, if dad would just give us the good hay to begin with, we wouldn’t have to dig for it and scatter it everywhere. Honestly, can’t he figure this stuff out on his own, or do I have to spell it all out for him?

    Anyway, the other day mum and dad came home with a new box, and then this thing showed up:

    vacmaster shop vacDad said he was tired of constantly picking up after us, and tired of our hay clogging his regular vacuum.

    Now, almost every day, once we’ve left our area and settled into dad’s office for our daily nap, we can hear dad using this thing for a little while out in our area. And then we come out, and all the hay we’ve meticulously scattered everywhere is GONE.

    On top of that, now there’s a new loud thing (which of course scares Gus; but I am made of sterner stuff) and another reason for dad to be invading our space.

    I don’t think I like where this is going.

  • Another Gus

    So I just found out the other day that there is another bunny blog out there with a bunny who is also named Gus!

    I approve of this.

  • More Bunny Food Porn

    For some reason, dad took pictures of our food again today.

    bunny food porn 2 Oh my.

    bunny food porn 1 I think dad is just trying to tease us. Because that just looks so yummy, and now I’m hungry!

    In fact, I think I’m going to go eat some hay and wait for dinner (even though it’s waaaay too early). Bye!!

  • Eating Hay is Hard Work

    It is hard work eating hay. Dad doesn’t believe me, but it is. You have to really dig down to find the good bits in your bowl, and those good bits are often covered by other, not-quite-as-good bits.

    Naturally, there is a certain technique to getting down to the good bits at the bottom of the bowl.

    Dad, of course, does not appreciate the subtleties of this technique and just thinks I’m being lazy.

  • Bunnysitter Service Not Quite 100%

    Mum and dad are away again, so our bunny-sitter is here again feeding us on our VERY STRICT SCHEDULE.

    Sometimes she is not quite 100% on time though, and I have to remind her that it is time for breakfast. (Then again, she is just a human so we can’t expect perfection from a non-rabbit.)

  • Mum and Dad are Back

    Mum and Dad are back – they went away for a bit (about a week and a half). We don’t care where they went. In fact, we hardly noticed they were gone, since our auntie Leisa kept the food and treats kept coming. (Normally we would disapprove of them going away.)

    Anyway, they’re back now (along with our grandparents from Australia). And as you can tell, we’re super excited.

    Ha ha, fooled you – we’re not excited at all.

    One thing I do disapprove of is dad letting the bunnycam go offline. (To be fair, he left it running, but the power went out once while he was gone, so it didn’t reconnect.) But, the bunnycam is back on-line now, so it’s all good.

  • Monday Bunday – Not A Litterbox

    Dad came out the other day and saw me eating some hay.

    gus sits in his hay bowlThen he said “Gus! That’s not your litterbox!”

    that's not your litterbox, gus Well, duh, dad, I know that.

    Honestly I don’t know what he thought was wrong with this picture.
