Monty's Human
Alpha Buck
I thought I'd wash the windows earlier, it being a dry day. Apparently I committed the rabbit crime of the century :shock:
Ossie thumped at me several times, then ran to her corner and looked grumpy. Just as she settled down, Monty, out of nowhere, went... well, mad, I think. He started flinging himself up and down the room, into furniture, into walls - at one point deliberately - it was actually quite scary. I did a very stern "Stop it! Calm down! Stoopid bunny." At which point, he crawled through the gap between the cupboard and the washing machine and sat behind the washing machine thumping and squeaking. Which did nothing to help Ossie.
We eventually dismantled the kick board and tempted him out under the cupboard with a treat, but honestly :roll: I think it was the squeaking of the newspaper on the glass they didn't like, but so much fuss!
They've been thumping a lot recently and I've been having a real internal debate about whether/when to go and pop my head in, and when to ignore it. After Monty's display earlier, I think I'd better step in to stop any further acts of self-sabotage! Is it just my bunnies being weird, or are clean windows one of the other things you have to give up with house rabbits?
