Yesterday I thought I'd give Eddie and Elsa a treat so i brought them out a few pieces of dried papaya. They took it straight from my hand :shock: :D !! Now everytime I go near the hutch they come running up to see me to see if I have any thing else for them! I obliged by bringing out a few strawbs and some cauliflower stalk and leaves, I am a very popular bunny mummy at the moment :lol: :lol: Its so nice for them to be getting more friendly and trusting with me :D

Awwwwww that is great news :D :D :D :D so pleased :D
 
Ted and Dougal get extremely excited when they see my shopping bags, they must know its all for them!

Doesn't help when I pull out a carrot for them I suppose!
 
my buns are my bestest friends when they hear the rattle rattle of a food packet, any food packet :shock: they love dried blueberries, cranberries and raisins :D you will never see two bunnies move so fast as Gypsy and Storm when blue berries are involved :lol: :lol:
 
Oooh I'll have to get some! My new bun Evee is still quite nervous as whenever I go to her it's either to spray her (coo her doan) groom her (she gets EVERYTHING in her coat) or put her back in her hutch. I've tried sittin with her for a long time and feeding her things (she never got veg or anythign at her last home, even grass is exciting for her!) so I shall ahve to try papaya, she might like me a bit more!
 
Talking of spraying rabbits - I armed myself with cool water spray bottle on Saturday and went out to cool the hot buns down - they HATED it!! I carried on regardless and gave them a few gentle squirts, but they did NOT look impressed, and both scuttered as far away from me possible!
Does anyone else's buns react like this? I felt quite bad! I put frozen bottles in for them but they don'r bother lying near them.
