Gus really doesn’t like the smell of human food – especially when mum & dad fry anything. ICK!
But mum has started writing about her food, and she seems to like it. But it’s not for me – not for bunnies at all, I’d say – but still, it’s my mum (I love my mummy) so if you are a human or like human food, see what my mum has to say about it here. (Be nice to her, she’s new to this stuff – not an expert blogger like me!!)

I don’t know why dad thought this was so unusual!

Hoppy New Year everybun!
Dad clapped when the clock rolled over to midnight and startled me & Betsy, but then I remembered that it’s the new year thing, so I didn’t mind. Much.
Hope everybun has a great year with lots of treats!!

We learned this morning that our friend Hugo has gone to the rainbow bridge. It’s always hard to see one of our furry friends go away, but it’s especially hard when they look just like me!
We wanted to send nose bumps to Miss Eve and Hugo’s human, but dad tells me that you can’t send nose bumps via e-mail (something about “nose bumps can’t be base64 encoded,” whatever that means). So, Miss Eve and Hugo’s human, if you were here, we’d give you nose bumps.
We’ll miss you, Hugo, but we’ll see you again someday!!

Can you believe it? Mum and dad left us home alone on Christmas!
Oh, sure, they had an excuse – they had to travel back to Massachusetts to see family, and it was only for one night, and we would’ve hated traveling with them (that is true), but still… no one was here to give us TREATS on Christmas morning!
Of course they’re back now, and we had a great time running rampant through the whole house while they were gone, but… still… well I guess I’m just glad they’re back so we can stick to the routine I’ve trained them for (i.e. giving me food and treats at specified times).
I hope everybun had a nice holiday!

Today I came into dad’s office and my chair was gone!
In its place was this big round thing:
I’m not sure how I feel about this!
On the plus side, the new big round chair is mich easier to hide behind – and it creates a neat “tunnel” behind it that you can run through. And it really blocks the corner where we like to hide – you can’t hardly see us at all!
On the down side, I sort of liked my chair – I liked to lick it sometimes, just for fun – and it gave me a nice place to sit when I wanted pats from dad.
So, I don’t know what to do… I will have to think about this change today and see if I approve or disapprove!

Yesterday dad came out of his office and saw Betsy and I in the living room. I guess we were in his path, because he stopped and said:
“Oh no – two vicious bunnies in my way, what am I going to do? I can’t go on, I’m just too scared!”
We actually didn’t mean to block him, scare him, or give him looks of disapproval – so we hopped over to the other side of the room and let dad walk past. (We like to do nice things for dad once in a while – keeps him on his toes.)
He seemed pretty grateful.

Sometimes dad gets up first, so he gives us treats instead of mummy (who usually gets up first and usually gives us our treats). Dad is a bit more strict than mummy when it comes to treats, though…
Gus is always begging for more treats than I do. Mum always says he’s such a “naughty boy!” Not me, though! I’m a perfect lady.
Ummm…. see? Perfect lady, much more dainty than Gus… ummm… right?
Wait, is Gus getting another cranberry? No fair! (Actually dad gave me one after this so it’s OK.)
…are there any more treats, dad?
What?? No more treats!?!?
Well if there are no more treats, then I’m outta here! Goodbye! Harumph!
Mmmm… secret treat from mummy! Yay for me!! 🙂

Sometimes I just like to lounge around.
Y’know, just relax while dad’s off working in another room.
Unfortunately, dad never turns up an opportunity to annoy me with the sound of his camera (or that little green light it flashes when it auto-focuses). ANNOYING!
Fortunately, I was able to give dad the disapproving look he deserved for disturbing me. Maybe next time he’ll think twice before snapping my photo!

Betsy is always hogging the inside of the bunny temple. But sometimes I manage to squeeze in there, too.
In case you were wondering, no, it’s not very comfortable. But I’m staying in there on principle!
Dad says I’m crazy for doing this. He says “Gus, that can’t be comfortable! Why don’t you just go sit on the chair?”
Maybe he’s right…
Ahhhh… much better.
Zzzzzzz……….
