Barney and Tess' Dad
Young Bun
It frustrates me that a lot of people who dont own rabbits as pets see them as something that you would just leave in the street if it walked past you...
A few comments i've heard...
"he's having his teeth done? how much will that cost?? put him in the pot its cheaper?" - that upsets me but you just have to grin and bear it.
Rabbits can be left alone all day unlike dogs.. who need walking - thats winds me up.. if a rabbit was left on his own all day with no food and no fresh hay etc.. he would proably last a few days at the most before he dies
My two are very clever, and yes although they dont sit on command.. or rollover etc they do things people wouldnt dream rabbits can do..
They know that when they get cleaned out they will have some treats hidden away for them to search for in amongst their hay etc. they jump straight back in the cage and search for them.
You put your head by the cage and they come over sniffing your mouth.. this is because we hold a small milk drop between our lips and they know that more often than not if they come over to us they will get a treat.
Happy Flops!!
they have their own room - but guarenteed around 9pm every night they will come upstairs and see if we have put their fresh greens down and carots for them. if we havent they go down. we'll go and do their fresh greens drop a little down by them in there room and they follow us upstairs as they know they have food waiting.
They come when you call them
when i tickle by their tails they turn round and lick my hand (obviously feels nice for them)
barney snuggles in and really grips tight when your holding him...
These are just a few things to why I love my bunnies so much (i know i sound saft cos i'm a bloke) but I just think they are too cute.
Does anone elses bunny have any traits that they love etc that make them special??
