Scratching to Make it Comfy

Douglas is visiting us for a couple of days this week. He's a very needy boy, and comes right over to me for pets. He made me get on the floor last night, but maybe he'll come up on the couch tonight. He's jumped up onto his little box, but not the couch yet. He …

What No Bun Has Done Before

Since my Cameron moved in with Piper, he's settling in nicely. He's missing out on checking out Douglas in the living room, but with Piper to entertain him, I don't think he minds. Most of the day he sleeps underneath furniture or his boxes, but sometimes he likes to sleep on his little bed. I …

“This Couch is Too Lumpy”

I was lying down on the couch last night after dinner, and Douglas hopped right up onto my chest. Fortunately, living in a house with rabbits, I except such things. He didn't stick around for long though. I guess I'm not as soft as the couch cushions are. When he's not stretched out at the …

Center of Action

Douglas is visiting us for the weekend and he settled in right away under the end table that so many bunnies before him have enjoyed. He alternated between sleeping there, and at the end of his pen. From there he's at the edge of the living room and has a great view of everyone coming …

Mapping out Petting

Douglas bunny let me groom him a little last night. Sides are okay, but not the butt! All rabbits have a "map" of what parts of their body are okay to touch and groom. Each is different, tolerating different amounts of touch, depending on how well they know the human. Most rabbits are fine with …

Favorite Napping Spots

My Piper loves to lie down in the hallway. Even when it's hot and humid outside and thus not as cool in the hallway as it is in a room, she still spends part of her day in the hall. I think she likes to be able to see what's going on. Not that anything …

Is it Too Warm or Too Cold?

Douglas keeps it cool by sleeping on his tile. We're swimming in humidity here right now so the ACs are all on for the buns. I like to keep it under 76 for them, as that is about the high end of temperature tolerance for them. They'd be happy in 60 degrees in the winter, …

Good Hay is Hard to Find

We don't have great hay right now as this is the period between last years cutting and this years. I go through a lot of hay in the house with all of the rabbits, so I usually buy a bale. The last bale we got was pretty tough so I mix that with some better …

Annie Says “Hello!”

Annie bun is visiting for the weekend. Douglas isn't too impressed, but my Cameron is so excited. He loves all bunnies, and cute girls that are just his size are probably his favorites. She hopped up on the couch with me a bit last night, but wasn't too interested in cuddling. She's much more of …

Do You Prefer Humans or Rabbits?

Douglas has been visiting us for a while now and I think he's getting a little homesick. My Cameron was keeping him company at the fence last night. He sat next to his litter box and I guess Douglas wasn't happy about that because he started digging in his box. He got some litter out …
