Can your bunny play "chase" with you?

[Snuggys Mom]

I am dying to get this on video. I need a new camera!!!

Snuggy plays "chase" with me. Ourliving room furniture sits in the middle of the room, so we have a great "bunny500" track.

First, I chase her, making grabby hands and saying "gonna gitchoo,Snuggs". She binkies and runs a bit, lets me catch up, then repeat, repeat until she's ready to chase me. Then she turns around and lunges at me. I run a bit, wait for her, she catches up, and on and on.

What's really funny is she will "hide" behind the sofa until I come back to check on her, then she'll charge at me. I shriek and run, she binkies, and off we go again.

It's great exercise for both of us! Last night we collapsed, panting and then shared some Craisins.

I've tried teaching Baby and Toby, but honestly, I don't think they are bright enough to get it. I love my Snuggy.

That's funny- Carolyn always calls her "puppy paws".

She's smarter than my dog!

I'd love to see video of this!

Nibbles has her own variation, which is also a hide-and-seek game. it works best if I'm down on the floor with her, as she likes me to come just close enough to touch her - then she binkies off. (She also thinks that being chased out of forbidden areas is a big game - argh! )

Truthfully, I let myself in for this - when I was visiting with her at the shelter, she got down onto the floor and had a wonderful time playing chase with us humans. It took 3 people to get her out into the open and into my carrier. (Frustrating for us, but she was having a blast. )

It sounds like what Ronnie does when Maggie accidently gets let out while he is in the yard. Except Maggie doesn't run away when Ronnie jumps out at her she just backs up. I catch one of them as quickly as I can of course.

Eee that's so cute! Loki sometimes asks me to chase him, and Mocha used to when she was a baby, but neither have chased me back. This morning Oberon and I were doing back-and-forth binkies. He binkied, I jumped, he binkied...
