Ew. The feeling of a strand of fur being stuck on my tongue... or, a white strand of fur touching my eye and it's so hard to locate and pull away...
Barney's been moulting for, ooh... nearly four weeks now? :? It's honestly the biggest moult I've witnessed him have so far. I've had him now for just over a year. And despite reading how rabbits moult from their nose and then down their backs, then their tummies? Well, there's a clear line along his back now - he's a dutch, and it's rather noticable where longer, darker fur remains and the shorter, surprisingly lighter coloured fur is. But he never finished moulting around his head - it's like the head bit paused. He had thicker fur from half way up his nose, to around his ears. So I was sat outside with him, my head practically in his hutch (he likes making me practically crawl in with him, the imp) plucking loose fur from his head. Which he loves - he gets that dopey, half-closed eyes look on his face and starts doing that tooth purr. Anyway!
I'm sure he's turning back to his light brownish colour. We have an organic free trade (I was impressed!) pineapple in the kitchen ready later. My dad keeps asking why we have it. :roll:
