Happy Holidays

Christmas has come and gone. I am sad about that. I really like Christmas. I got lots of neat stuff from Mama, Grandma, my aunts, and Santa Paws. I gots: lots of yummy treats, a stuffed hippo, 2 toy balls (one with a jingly bell inside!) and a new story book about a bunny. Yay! I also got a new blanky. I like to snuggle up with it and nap.

I got to be out of my cage on Christmas morning. Boy oh boy, was that fun. All those shiny pretty presents to look at! I went from package to package, and I even helped open some of them. Then I got to eat some of the wrapping paper.









After we got done with presents, I was so excited I ran round and round the living room! ZOOOOM!!! Then, in the afternoon, I took a nice long nap. I had a lot of excitement for a little bunny.

I hope everyone else had a good Christmas, too!

Santa Paws is coming! Santa Paws is coming!

Santa Paws is coming tonight! Yay! I'm so excited. I even made up with Grandma for taking me to the vet, just to prove to Santa what a good bunny I am.

The weather here is yucky, so we are staying home. I'm happy about that, because I really hate riding in the car. Then, when I get to Grandma's, I'm stuck in my pen the entire time because Grandma doesn't want me to eat her furniture. I was kinda worried about Santa, but Grandma assured me that he wouldn't have any problem with the weather.

In other news, Mama is finally on Christmas break, so she will be able to stay home to pet me and love me all day. And I'm now on Bunspace. It's like Myspace, but for bunnies. I have lots of new bunny buddies. There are even forums there, where us buns can discuss important things, like poop.

I hope everyone has a good Christmas, and that Santa Paws brings fun stuff. But could you all keep a good thought for my pal Scout's people? Scout was sick, and her people helped her get to Heaven a couple days ago. They are very sad. But she's not sick any more and if she could thank them for helping her to Heaven before she felt really yucky and scared, she would. Don't worry Auntie Alane and Uncle Rob - she knows how much you love her and she loves you too.

Winter's here!

I sat by the slider and watched it snow outside this weekend. It was pretty. And it made me start to think of Christmas.

Mama got our little Christmas tree out of the closet and put it on a table. Soon, she'll put pretty lights and ornaments on it. She also hung up my stocking. I checked it out, but there's nothing in it yet. I can't wait for Santa Paws to come visit and leave me stuff.

How many more bedtimes 'til Santa visits???

Horror and Holidays

Long time, no update. Sorry about that. Mama has been busy with homework and hasn't had time to type for me.

My holiday weekend got off to a downright crappy start. I had to go the the vet, my most hated place in all the world! And can you believe it, but my Grandma did it. I couldn't believe it. Of all the humans I know, I thought she'd be the least likely to drag me off to the torture chamber. I felt so betrayed. I made sure to stay away from her and not let her pet me. I sat as far away as I could while still keeping an eye on her. I also gave her the stink eye so she knew I was good and mad at her. She seemed surprised I stayed mad for so long. Well, can you blame me??? My Grandma, giver of treats and forehead rubs, is only supposed to spoil her grandbunny, not stuff him in a carrier and drive him to that horrible place. Geez, Grandma.

But my weekend did get better. I got not one, not two, but three treats on Thanksgiving! I got some banana for breakfast, another bunny treat for dinner, and a yummy carrot at bedtime. And today, I got let out at 9am. Mama said I get to bounce all day long, as long as I'm a good bunny.

It's also Mama's birthday today. I had Grandma get her a present for me, and a card which I thoughtfully signed myself. I wonder if I'll get an extra treat today, too?

Happy Halloween!

I better get some treats tonight. Or else.

Happy Fall

Hello.

It's gotten cold outside. I like to lay down next to the slider because the glass is cold.

I had an interesting experience this weekend. My grandma chased me with a lint roller! I didn't want my head brushed, so she lint rolled it. It felt weird. Then I got my butt lint rolled. I didn't like that at all. Grandma said it was better than a brush, but I don't think so.

I did some reading this weekend (when I wasn't hopping away from the lint roller) - it was my old favorite, the Canterbury Tales. I just couldn't put it down. What else should I devour?

Ooooh, I see some fresh unshredded newspaper! Off to play...

Another bunny blog...

Ok, technically, Buster is a hare, not a rabbit. But her story is pretty cool. Check it out: http://busterjourney.blogspot.com/

Grandmas are awesome

I love it when Grandma goes to the pet store for Mama. Mama just comes home with litter and hay, but Grandma comes home with treats! I love my Grandma.

Mama...

Mama is STILL broken, and my Grandma told me she's going to be broken for a long time yet. I don't like that. Mama hasn't been able to get down on the floor with me to pet me for days and days. But if I hop up onto the couch with her, she'll pet me and tell me how much she loves me.

Grandma has been taking really good care of me. Especially the day Mama came home from the hospital. Mama didn't feel good, and I knew it, and I was so upset. I tried to get out of my pen, but I couldn't and Mama couldn't get down to me, so I got even more upset. Grandma put me back in my cage and I tried, I really did, but I missed my litter box. I felt bad, but Grandma just cleaned it up and pet me for awhile until I felt better.

I hope Mama never has to go to a hospital again. But at least she's feeling better now, which makes me feel better.

My Mama is still broken. I thought maybe she'd be better by now. She has to go to the hospital to get fixed (but somehow I don't think she'll get fixed in quite the same way I did). Grandma will come take care of me. I hope Mama's better soon.

I got in trouble last night. I was sampling the carpet and woodwork, and I tried to get into the desk, Mama sent me to bed early and I didn't get a treat. I threw my bowl around my cage to let her know how unhappy I was about that. I mean, I was just being an active and curious little bunny. And wouldn't you think she'd have more important things to worry about? I hope I get out to bounce for a long time tonight. I'll look up at her with my big brown eyes, and she'll be putty in my paws.

Uh Oh!

My Mama fell and broke herself. It was scary. She said lots of bad words afterwords, and I knew something was wrong. She must have gone to a vet (or whoever it is people go see), and they said her elbow is broken. I don't know if bunnies have elbows, but I bet it hurts alot to break one. I hope she doesn't stay broken for too long. So, think good thoughts for my Mama, ok?

Here I am!

Wow. Summer is over? I like when summer is over though, because my Mama is home more, it gets cooler out, and my Grandma comes to visit a bunch. Grandma came to take care of me awhile ago while my Mama went away. She gave me treats, rubbed my forehead lots, and even bought me new toys. I love Grandma. She came to visit this weekend, too, and pet me for the longest time. I just melted into a happy bunny puddle.

Last week wasn't so good. Mama took me to the vet. Why she insists on taking me there, I'll never know. She knows how much I hate to go and how much I hate the vet lady. Mama tried to bribe me with a fresh carrot from my garden, but she should know better than to think I can be bought for that. The vet was all, "A fresh carrot? What could be better than that!" Well, lady, I'll tell you what could be better - not getting dragged to this torture chamber, that's what! Hopefully, I can think of a way to get out of going there again.

I'm on Facebook now. I'm up to 15 friends. Not bad for a little bunny, huh? I'm not really sure what to do with the whole thing, though.

I suppose that's all for now. Sorry I haven't updated in so long!

Home improvement

My litter box sprung a leak this week, and my house got wet and stinky. I had to sit all the way on the other side. But Mama fixed it. She bought me a new toilet, cleaned my house for me, and put the new box in. Thank you, Mama!

But the big news is my pen got delivered! Check out my new playpen:



Look how much room I have to play now! I'm one lucky bunny.



My week got even better, because my Auntie Cheekee (Augie's mom) sent presents in the mail for me and my Mama. I got treats! I love treats! I also got a neat story about a little bunny looking for his perfect family. He found it. I'm so happy I've found mine, too.

Wardrobe Change

So, I've been shedding my winter coat since it's summertime and I don't need it anymore. I've been leaving it all over the living room floor, on the couch, on Mama, ... That's kind of fun, but as it falls out, it sticks under the outer coat and is itchy. Good thing I have my Mama trained. If I sit still, she will brush it out for me. I even let her mess up my fur by petting me the wrong direction, because it loosens up more fur and then she brushes it out. She says I look skinny now. I feel lighter. Do you think I'm light enough now to bounce over the fence to my playpen?

Good news

My Mama got something called a "promotion" and a "raise" this week. I'm not sure what those things are, but they must be good, because it made her happy. And it's made me happy, too, because that "raise" thing is going to get me a bigger playpen. Mama just ordered it. Yay! More room to bounce!

Uh oh, it's the middle of the day, but it just got really dark outside. I know what that means. Off to hide under a chair...

Crash! Boom! Flash!

It's been thunderstorming outside for the past few days. It gets really, really dark, then really loud with flashes of light. My Mama told me everything is ok, but it's scary and I don't like it. Tonight I hid under a chair until it was all over.

I guess I slept though a storm yesterday. Sometimes I sleep really deeply. Being the cutest bunny that ever bunnied can be hard work.

Arrrrggghh!!!

I had to go to the vet today! I hate going to the vet! There were lots of doggies there, so it was scary, too. I'm very mad at my Mama, even if she did just buy me a new toy.

Mama's car got broken again. Which means no vet visit for me this week! Ha ha!

I played hide-and-seek again last night. I hid in the closet, and my Mama couldn't find me anywhere even though she looked all through the apartment. She even went in the closet, but I sat real still and quiet so she wouldn't find me. But I was a good bunny and hopped out to her when she called for me.

I'm going to tell you a little secret, but you all have to promise not to tell my Mama, ok? Well, she thinks she is training me to come when she calls my name. But really, I'm training her to give me more treats and forehead rubs. Pretty smart, huh?

My Mama got her car back from wherever it was today. The carport fell on it. I had hoped that since her car was broken, that meant I didn't have to go to the vet anymore. No such luck. The car's back, and I think a trip to the torture chamber is in the plans for the near future. How can I get out of it?

Mother's Day

Today is a special day for Mamas. I didn't get my Mama anything, but I've been extra good, and she said I am the best thing ever, so I guess just being me is a pretty good present. I did have my Mama get cards and some chocolate for my Grandma and my Great-Grandma. Wasn't that nice of me? I even signed the cards by chewing off a corner or two. My Grandma came to visit and she really liked the card and candy. I hope my Great-Grandma likes it, too. My Mama bought flowers for each of them but they were way up high on the dining room table, so I couldn't get to them. Darn it. I bet they were yummy, too.

It's all grey and rainy here today, and it's perfect napping weather. So, that's what I'm going to do.

Zzzzzz.....

Away and back

I got to have a little adventure. While my Mama went to my uncle's wedding, I went to stay with my Aunt Kathy and Cousin Maize. Maize is a kitty. I didn't know what to make of her, since I'm not sure I've ever seen a kitty before. But a little while after I got there, we had a stare-down, and I won. A little later, when I was in my pen, I'd hop toward her and she'd go hide behind a plant stand. Chicken. But we got used to each other. We'd even play. I'd hide under the bed until she came along, then I'd hop out at her. I'd also come up behind her and sniff her tail and headbutt her. It was lots of fun. What was also fun is Kathy clearly isn't used to having a bunny around and didn't block things off very well. I was wherever I wanted in no time. And I only got sent to bed early once, for chewing on stuff and not listening when told "No."

My Mama did finally come back to take me home. Even though I liked having a kitty for a little while and my auntie took really good care of me, I'm glad I'm home. This place is all mine, I get to hop all around instead of just in one room, and I missed my Mama. Well, I'm pooped after running all around, so I think I'll go to bed after I get my treat. Nighty-night.

Birthday party

I got a birthday party yesterday. It was cool. There were decorations and everything.



My Mama, my Grandma, and one of my aunts were there, and we had food. They had carrot cake, and I got part of a peach. And a yummy plate.



And the best part, PRESENTS!!! Lookit all the stuff I got!



Birthdays are just as good as Christmas!

Happy Birthday to me!

Since it's my birthday, I got to go to work with my Mama today! I didn't know what was going on this morning when I got loaded into the car, but since I was in my cage and not my carrier I was pretty sure I wasn't going to the vet. I wasn't sure about being in a new place at first, but I got used to it. I had my cage, one of my blankets, and some of my toys so I was all set. Lots of new people came to see me. They all said I'm really cute, and I even let some of them pet me. They loved me there and wanted me to come back all the time. I think once in awhile is enough though, even though I enjoyed the extra attention and being able to be in my pen all day instead of my cage. Mama said I was a very good boy, and I got a treat even though it wasn't bedtime. She said she has a surprise for me later, too. I can't wait! I bet it's food or a new toy. Maybe both?

ETA:
I got a new toy! It's a really colorful rattle in the shape of a phone, like what my grandma calls me on. I rubbed my chin on it, then I tossed it to hear it make noise. Cool!

I got to see my uncle this weekend. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen him, so I was a little shy.

I'm getting a new auntie next week because my uncle is getting married. Should I get them a card? I'm going to have new cousins, too. They are doggies named Lucy and Dixie. I don't know how I feel about this. Does this mean I'll have to share my grandma now? What if she decides she loves them and not me? I like being her grandbunny and having her all to myself. What should I do?

Victory is mine!

My Mama tried to keep me out of the hall because I was digging the carpet and thought a baby gate could keep me out. When she first put it up, I pulled it off the wall. Then I chewed my way through. Today, she covered it with heavy cardboard so I couldn't chew holes. She thought she had beaten me. Silly Mama. What do bunnies do better than dig and chew? We bounce. And I bounced right over that fence. Each time she got me out of the hall and put the gate back up, I bounced right back over it again. Ha ha! I win! No more baby gate!

Is this supposed to be spring???

I thought April was supposed to be springtime, but it is cold and yucky outside. I want it to be nice and sunny.

My Mama got a book about growing stuff in pots when it gets warmer out. She said she will grow some yummy stuff for me to eat. Does anybody have any good tips about how to get lots and lots of stuff from containers on a balcony?

In the meantime, got any ideas about how I can convince my Mama to take down the gate so I can get into the hallway? She caught me digging the carpet, and now I can't get over there. I know I'm not supposed to dig the carpet, but I'm a bunny, and that's what we do.

I still haven't thought of a name for my new little bunny friend. I've just been calling him Bunny.

Bouncing back in...

Hi.

It's been a long long time since I blogged. Has anybody missed me? I've been a busy little bunny: bouncing around, getting into things, pulling up carpet, and shredding paper. I like the really big paper that comes on Sundays.

I've also been keeping an eye on my plants. This picture is old, and the plant is even bigger now.


My cilantro was growing nicely, but my Mama left it on the floor in a patch of sun one day, and it made a yummy snack for me. The mint plant isn't doing too good. Maybe the poo to plant ratio was off somehow...

I'm not sure what the whole Easter Bunny thing was about, but I did get a new little friend. What should I name him?

Look what my poo can do!

My Mama put some of my poo in pots with dirt. I wasn't sure what she was doing, but now I think I get it.

See this plant? Last weekend it looked dead, but now look at it!



Here's my little mint plant. It's growing too. And I don't think you can see it, but the cilantro in that other pot is juuuust starting to come up.



Pretty cool, huh?

Hi.

Not too much has been happening here. My Mama went back to work and school after the holidays, which means less bounce time for me. I liked it when she was home with me to pet me and love me all day. Maybe someday she can be a stay-at-home bunny mom. I’d like that. I bet she would, too.

The little mint plant my Grandma bought for me is still alive, and sometimes I get fresh mint leaves with my dinner. It’s yummy. Mama said she’s going to try to grow some cilantro in a pot for me, too.

I guess that’s all the news right now. I’d like to try the start up the Friday Evening Book Club again, but my Mama’s really been watching me when I get by the book shelves. I’m a pretty clever bunny, though, so I bet I can figure out a way to get my paws on one.

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

Today has been a good day. I’ve been napping in my favorite spots, ate some banana, and my Mama is really happy because her football team won today.

I’m looking forward to this year. Last year turned out pretty good. At the beginning of last year, I was bored, lonely, dirty, hungry, felt yucky, and no one loved me. But now I have lots of toys, a nice clean home, food every day, and lots of people who love me. Since my Mama loves me more than anything in the whole wide world (she told me so), I think everything’s going to stay good. I hope Rudy and Camelot, the other two bunnies at the humane society with me when I got adopted, are having just as good a new year.
