[Fancy77]

OMG SO tru Dave, I couldnt imagine the opposite

 

[cheryl]

Well i have been enjoying my time home...and the weather has been glorious...absolutely sunny...like my Sunny bunny lol....but i may as well enjoy every drop of that sunshine..cause i know there won't be to much of itleft..winter is coming...already :shock:..well not until June..but the months are going by very quickly though.

Daylight savings finally finishes three am this morning..sunday morning...yay..i get my hour back!



On thursday which was our last day of workuntil the four day break...well we got to pig out on hot cross buns...not sure if you guys have them or not...but they are so delicious toasted with lots of butter..mmmm..i prefer the plain ones though..the one's without sultanas...we also got a chocolate easter bunny,,mmmm,,mmm



Well i have to get new pictures of the bunnies posted

I've never had a hot cross bun until this year and now I'm addicted to it. I only like the ones from Entemann's though, $5.00 for a box. I should stock up now before they go away!

Hate to think about winter when we're finally heading into nice weather. So no talk of cold weather!!!

Haha..hmmm lol...i know..just thinking about the cold weather that is to come,gives me the shivers.

 

[Wabbitdad12]

If it would stay in the mid 70's that would be great.

 

[cheryl]

Dave,i think 70F is around 21*C here..that is just a little cool here....i would like it to be around 26-28 *C..that would be perfect.



I just got back from the vet with Charlie...she had to go back to get her eyes flushed again..the right one is looking better but the left one is just blocked...Dr Lee tried to flush it just the once but it was a no go and her eye just kinda swelled up,so he stopped...ohh my gosh i watched him do it...i know this might sound stupid but i had no idea they stick the long bit of the needle right inside the duct.

Charlie was so good though,she just sits there..no problem.

So now she has to go back for the third time next thursday to try and flush it again,and if that don't work then she will have a head xray to check her teeth,but she's eating with no problems though,she eats her pellets,hay,veggies....so i'm just not sure...but we will do an xray anyway just to rule that out.

My poor baby...you can see her eye here

 

[Cabrissi]

Just found your blog! Poor little Charlie, it's amazing how good they can be for the vets when it comes to those sorts of procedures hey? Hopefully this flushing has done the trick! Does the vet think maybe a bit of something has gotten lodged down there and caused irritation from how they can stick their heads into a pile of hay or such? :nurse:

 

[cheryl]

Hey Amanda..Dr Lee said she could just have an infection or something...when he tries to flush her eye the stuff he uses isn't even going in...so i just have to keep giving the eye drops and hopefully that will help with things...but if not,then it's an xray to see if anything elseis going on.

And i know..i cannot believe she sat their on the table with my hands holding her...she didn't even move...such a good girl.

 

[Fancy77]

sorry to hear about charlie

 

[Nummy]

Just wanted to tell you that your rabbits are beautiful!! But I am sure you already know that :biggrin2:

 

[hln917]

Hope Charlie's better soon. Yeah I would have freaked myself if I saw that needle!

 

[cheryl]

Thanks guys

And thanks for the lovely comment Nummy

Charlie is such a good girl though...she will let me put the drops in her eyes no problem.

Each time i have had to take one of my bunnies to the vet,and when i put them on the examining table,they always jump into my arms..like mummy..save me..protect me..or they try to jump back into their basket..where they feel safe....Charlie jumped into my arms last night at the vet..but my bunnies are always perfectly good when they do go to the vet though.

The only bunny that really didn't mind was my Pippi who is no longer with me..he died 26th dec 07 from health issues due to EC...i still miss him terribly....but he used to just sit on the table..no problems at all...he would even clean himself...the vetwould wait for him to finish grooming himself...but he would sometimes want to jump back into his basket

So yeah..i just hope the next flushing for Charlie goes a bit better.

 

[cheryl]

Also while i was at the vet with Charlie,i asked about Cassidy who has cateracts in both eyes,as i havenoticed the white in his eyes are going a weirder kind of white..so Dr Lee was saying that it sounds like the cateracts are calcifying or something like that and that there is nothing that can be done..but as long as his eyes are not red or sore looking then he will be just fine....his eyes look just fine..nothing that concerns me there,i was just wondering what was going on.

But if anything changes..then he wants to see Cassidy

Goodness all i do is worry



But Cassidy is such a good boy...he's just my clever little guy

He has the most softest fur ever

 

[cheryl]

Well..it's quite a cool day here today not cold just breezy...the sky is this dreary grey colour and it looks to be threatning to rain...no please don't rain!,i need to do my washing and hang it out on the line,otherwise i have to use my dryer which i use a little to much lol....even though we desperately need the rain...Adelaide had been going through a terrible drought..so i know the rain is very welcome..just not today.



I buy a big bag of 20kg pellets and i left the bag on the kitchen floor leaning against the cupboard..it's opened but i have just not stored it away in a container yet...so i go into the kitchen and there is Zak and Chocolate Bunny on their hind legs like short fury children digging their little faces into the bag..it looked really cute cause they were both right on their tip toes lol...it was such a shame i had to spoil their fun and take it away...they looked at me like ahh mum why you do that for lol

 

[Luvr of Wabbits and Polar Bears]

lol, Bunnies are so cute when they help them selves.

How is our Jack doing?

 

[cheryl]

I know Rebecca,i had to giggle as it was just a funny sight the way they were both on their tip toes stretched right up,i wish i had grabbed my camera and snapped a picture.



Jack is doing great..his fur on his tummy has grown back...i should have known in the beginning that it was probably mites..but sometimes my worriness just goes into over drive and i just assume the worst.

He does this cute little thing when he knows it's tea time..he wriggles his back end in the most cutest way.

I will get some new pictures of him as well...haven't done it yet..my bad

 

[cheryl]

Well the day was pretty quiet here today..didn't really do much...just did my washing which i put into the dryer after all...watched dvds and just spent the time with the bunnies and on the forum.

My youngest son Jeremy hasbeen on school holidays for end of term...two weeks holidays...this week is their last week though....wish i could have two weeks off from work..that would be just lovely.

I cooked a yummy casserole in my slow cooker today..i love my slow cooker..i can just put all the ingredients in it and just let it cook while i do other things.

So tomorrow is Monday so back to work *sigh*...my work is pretty good though..i work at a company called Palmers (E.T Browne)..beauty products..it's an American based company..and the warehouse that i work exports the products all over Australia..what ever the shops and chemists order...it's great cause Palmers products are not tested on animals which is a huge bonus and i get to take lots of products home....and i also get lots of boxes for the bunnies...they do spoil the workers there..it is a great place though.

Haha i'm known as the rabbit lady there.

Oh well i shall have to post more pictures of the bunnies..Chocolate Bunny says i have to post pictures of her cause i haven't posted any for a while..then all the other bunnies started complaining...so i guess i have to get my butt into gear and get posting new pictures.
