Wise Old Thumper
Meet Chibbs She's from Burrowed Hearts in Nottingham. Been kept in a hutch all her 5yrs, on her own, although around other bunnies. Here's our new gorgeous girl looking quizzical (album of all photos linked at end):
Here she is with Lopsy:
They're about the same size, but Chibbs is smaller and lighter under her huge amounts of fluff! Her feet are teeny tiny! When they met, it was raining, and Lopsy doesn't much mind the rain, but she's even more waterproof than him! When she got a bit too wet, she shook herself off like a dog and voila, dry! It was brilliant
She took 2hrs to come out of the tube into the run: she was unsure of the space, but she went up the tube very soon after I opened the door to it Lopsy went straight out and went to go down the tube to the hutch-dog crate area, but it was locked off, poor Lopsy! She spent a lot of time looking around when she did come out, reaching up and touching the blue tarp with her nose, poking her nose at everything, having a good investigate
She loves periscoping but if she's concentrating, she's not confident enough yet to do it without support, so a little paw is often resting on something
She isn't very food-oriented (yet!): she's a browser not a glutton. She's gotten faster at eating though, and is starting to try and mug Lopsy Mum gave them a whole small carrot each yesterday XD She managed pretty much all of the smaller one Having said that, night before last at pellets time, Lopsy rammed his nose into her side when he'd finished his (we use a double cat bowl) and was across the windowsill, so she climbed over him to see if there were any pellets in his side XD Then, when they'd both finished, she wanted to jump down but Lopsy was in the way, so she thumped at him, twice, and when he didn't move (he doesn't understand bunny social cues, he's not a very good rabbit!), she humped him so he jumped off so she could jump off and go to the litter tray XD She does groom him a lot though, all over, I haven't seen Lopsy groom her but then he rarely groomed Aboleth (again, social cues!).
Here's the main album on Google Photos: https://photos.app.goo.gl/1pycFHyK4KmAQcCY7 The first four photos are from the first day, which is why Lopsy looks a bit spiky The rest are from yesterday.
