Happy Bunny Time

[juliew19673]

Has tony's binkying increased more now that he is getting used to Muffin or is this a thing of the past since he now has friend?

Love the photos of the harmsters - its looks like they are doing DHF! LOL..

(ahem) It's been a little while since I updated, but I'm home from work watching some stinkers who decided they like chocolate to make sure everything's ok.

The only binkies I get to see are the "I'm a bad bunny" or futon binkies, since Muffin and Tony prefer to dance at night with nobody watching. I hear from my bf who often stays up later than I that prime binky time is about 3 AM, and they binky together. It's such a sweet image that I'm not sad I don't get to see them. They still love me, follow me around for food, and lay down for pets, I just know I'm not the love of Tony's life anymore.

We just moved to a new apt this month and also took a trip to GA (12hrs in the car each way, non-stop, 2 dogs and a cat also in the house while we stayed there for a week), and they all did amazingly. We were all happy to be home, but I am impressed in my bunnies' ability to handle stress. Tony was even interested in the dogs a little! It may have helped that the dogs were probably more scared of them.

The cage has been downsized a little but Ms. Muffin is getting more adventurous about going to higher levels, and also lets me pet her more. We're all looking forward to less activity and more routine as school starts up again, though!

Time for more pics! First, the lovely Petunia:

I've taken to giving her "scooby snacks" which are actually dog biscuits. they're good for their teeth, and it's funny to watch her carry them around since they're about as big as she is!

I've also started cleaning out wet litter daily to keep mold growth down. it will mold in just a day if i'm not careful!

Second, the cute little munchkin who may be getting a VERY BIG friend soon!

"you lookin at me?"

and finally, the happy couple (under the futon).

LOL ... Way too funny!!! I ended up taking pictures of Patrick and Luna sittingbehind a chair when Luna was finally able to have full run of the house. Brings back great memories of only four or five month ago. It feels like Luna has been here longer, like her whole life.

I love all of your pic update!!! Tony and his lil' girl Muffin are precious. T-bone pics make me start to think I need a nethie also--such personalities stuffed into little bodies. Who could forget Miss Petunia... such cuteness should not allowed in such an overload of great pics. Your babies are all too special!!!!

Great pics, keep them coming!!!

And finally, Halloween photos. Muffin did not like her hat

she kept on trying to get away

but i got a few cute pics

Tony was more cooperative and his hat fit better. He is also more of a monster than Muffin is a chicken anymore--she's really gained some confidence lately!

in fact his hat even stayed on when he managed to run away!

no pics of t-bone, i'm not allowed to dress him up.

hehe! Benjamin is flattered, but he is now TAKEN! A week ago Sunday we brought home a lovely lady that he has bonded quite closely and quickly to. Her name is Frita/Frida/Frijoles! Pics will come when my life calms down and i get a hold of a camera...

We are *seriously* a full house now. Everybody has somebunny to snuggle with all day. Here's my favorite pic of Frida and Benjamin:

And a recent one of Tony and Muffin in their cage (banished there for peeing where they shouldn't!)

I also have some sad news. Munchkin died yesterday. I had her running around on my shoulder the night before, and gave her and Petunia each some cereal before I left in the morning. When I came home she was dead and already stiff. I don't know the cause, but she passed a lot of poo right before she died. She was about 5-6 months old. Here is her RB thread: http://rabbitsonline.net/view_topic.php?id=41875&forum_id=27

I am taking Munchkin's death pretty hard and will probably not get another hamster (at least for a long time). I know Petunia will not accept another hamster to be her snuggle buddy, since she didn't want to be with Munchkin, no matter what we tried. I just feel like such a failure at caring for hamsters, which are supposed to be a very easy pet. To have 2 die in such a short period of time, from things I apparently could not have prevented, is really hard. RIP sweet Munchkin.
