we have had merlin since july 6th..and hes always been a bit of a mischief...but it wasnt until he was given free rnage if nikkis room we found he was a chewer..of gargantuan proportions:shock:
so we had to remove his jaunts onto the landing etc until supervised..which he hates.so in process of bunny proofing that yet again:shock:
hes been jumping in an dout of nikkis bed when shes in her room or asleep or when shes donwstairs even for a few mins whilst i help her try to eat.
the other night hed chewed thru every thing he could try to reach and stuff he couldnt. then she cried..oh mum oh no......hed pooped a lot in her bed..the odd poops is the norm but this..oh my. then hed peed on her pjs and her clean dry towel and her sheet..and her duvet and cover and chewed up her battery operated halloween lights shes had for years...wrecked her toy pingus foot and stuffing....chewed yet another chili light cover to shreds.
hes a very sociable bunny but very demanding and i have had two hours solid of giving him nosey rubs each day..etc
nikkis been pretty much laid up in her room so hes had her almost to himself. he upsets zuzu nikkis cat cos he waits till shes fast asleep then climbs on top of her to go to sleep:lol:
hed not peed on zuzus blanket etc tho.
we have had very tearfully to confine him in a playpen arrangment. hes calmed down a bit now..is back to rushing up to me for attention....
i was very ill last week with severe epileptic blackouts..it was hell. i had to have my flu jab and had to take a cab the few short mins walk to the surgery..i had to produce a card explaining my predicament and how to help me.
i had had enough...the animals were all like..oh gids here she goes again..i almost landed on zuzu!
but merlin had his daily water feed tray change and nose rubs on the floor...
if it was my weird blackouts...hed have done this before hand as i suffer maybe two to fifty of them a day everyday.
We dont know what weve done....no changes...hes used to the smells of bertie and bif as they are of him.
wha happened???
i think its because no matter how much attention we give him...and the cats give him..making him fluent in cat btw.....
maybe hes uberbored and needs a wfey or is it just rebelling cos we havent let him lose upstiars everywhere as we had to modify things as he kept destroying stuff as he went.
hes a very very norty boy...i even threatened to return him to julie at rosie rabbits rescue..he just fluffed up his mane and face and put his head on one side to look extra cute and then the devilish streak shot across his eyes and he flicked his ears and went back to destroying is own stuff as well.
so the pen it is...and tomorrow i hope to supervise landing run arounds without him going too crazy!
hes loved being a house bun...i couldnt have an outdoor bunny...i coudlnt cope....indoor ones have always been easier for me. I said to nikki if he got rehomed he end up living outside as hes so destructive. then we laughed...hed eat how way out of a hutch n run....:lol::lol:
gods knows how he didnt eat thru our old thistle hall hutch julie has now:shock:
