First of all, I am starting to think y'all are alllll crazy for loving cilantro so much. Lol. Cilantro makes me gag...bleh! So when I bought it for Buster I didn't think that it would stink of my house and it did t but it made my hands stink! Oh it was horrible, it made me gag so I ran and washed them real hard and couldn't smell it afterwards so then I sat down with my snack, some chips, after I was done I went to lick the good stuff off my fingers and I tasted the cilantro!!! Ugh! It was horrible!!! D: then he didnt eat it fast enough and it got old and the weird icky sticky nasty stuff on me and i freaked out, so I stopped buying cilantro. And now I have an even more heightened sense of taste and smell for it.

I took my cat to the vet and after a slightly large vet bill, he is doing okay and got some antibiotics. After this cat, I will NEVER have a cat again, even if one day I have kids and they beg me I will never give in! This cat was the coolest cat ever, he was more like a dog, he's not very independent and he plays fetch and retrieves his little mouse toy right back into your hand. Lol

I LOVE the Big Bang theory! Sheldon is my favorite of course! One of my favorite shows right now! It's hard trying to watch it bc everybody's like ahh change it to "whatever" Terds!

Ahhh children, adorable fun to watch but I don't want one anytime soon lol. I enjoy watching them from a distance, they say the most cutest things!

 

[Chrisdoc]

But not as cute a bunnies, Katie.

Oh, I love the smell of cilantro and love using it to cook with. Isn´t it weird what we get phobias about. I love peas, frozen or fresh but we also have mushy peas in England which most people eat with fish and chips. I hate the smell and can´t even sit near someone when they eat them as they make me gag as well. Just some bad experience with them in childhood and they are my worst nightmare.

Should be able to watch Parenthood tonight so I´ll let you know what I think tomorrow..now I´m really looking forward to it, hope I´m not disappointed after all these rave reviews.

Okay, my computer took a crap while I was trying to do this a few minutes ago, so I'm going to try it again.

Here are pictures of Ellie on the washcloth that I put her on the first day I had her. I think there is a picture of her on the first page of this blog, of her on the same cloth. You can really see the size difference.

Now some pictures of her eating cilantro.

Here is the video of her eating cilantro! Please ignore all the crap on my floor. Its floor day today I just haven't gotten to it yet. Thats the 'animal/laundry' side of the kitchen.
I hope the video works!

For some reason in pictures, her feet look so much more stained than they do in person. Because, I swear her feet aren't that stained!

Here is a sign in Charlotte, that I thought was cool.

And here is a picture of my best friend's fiance. He's trying to get Wuthering Heights out of a stack of iron books. Thats in the park in Charlotte we went to while waiting on the bridal expo to open. I talked about it a few pages ago. hahaha.

PS. I'm totally IN LOVE with tinypic!

First of all, I am starting to think y'all are alllll crazy for loving cilantro so much.

^^^^haha Katie. I think you either love it or hate it. I love it so much that when i have it in my fridge I randomly go to it just to SMELL it. My hubby thinks I'm completely insane

I used to work at an outdoor produce stand and then at a grocery store in the produce section. Sometimes that stuff gets a little funky smelling, so I would take a handful of cilantro and tear it up to release the smell and like bury my face in it. The smell would over power any other nasty smell and make it so much better. BUT when it goes bad, it gets NASTY.

 

[Chrisdoc]

Morgan, I´m so oohing and aahhing at her as she´s just gorgeous. I´ve just been back to look at some of the older pictures and OMG does she remind me of Houdini. It´s just the eyes and the way she looks at you and the way she eats sort of with her eyes half closed; they could be twins if it wasn´t for the colour, it´s freaky for me looking at her.

I love the video and that bit where she comes right up to the screen, that is so typical but she looks really healthy and seems to like the cilantro. I´d say her little feet are normal, they´re never completely white underneath

That sign is so amazing, I love how it tells you how far you are from nearly everywhere, looks like an amazing place to visit.

 

[MILU]

She's really cute!!!!!:mrsthumper:

Charlotte is a pretty cool city. There is a lot of art stuff, so there are all kinds of sculptures and huge visual things all around. The little park we were in has these bee's that are set in stepping stones and when you step on the bees the little walls that are either side of the walkway start to buzz. There are also leaves on the walls that make other noises. Its pretty cool.

So I just got scared, in the middle of the day. I was sitting on my couch, then I hear this noise coming from outside. It was our air compressor. It turned itself on in the shed, just randomly. It was scary. No one was out there and maybe it just lost pressure and kicked on, but I don't know why it was 1) plugged in and 2) turned on. I actually think that one of my chickens went in there and hit the button with a beak. I'm not sure though, it was weird.

I think I'm going to try to talk my husband into buying that new computer tonight! hahaha. We've sort of put it off for other things, but I think now is the time! I'm so sick of this piece of crap. *pets the computer and tells it 'I still love you, you're not a piece of crap, please don't stop working'.*

Eeeeek! I love the video! For some reason I feel like videos of bunnies moving around, and their little mouths chewing, relay so much more than a still image. Maybe that's why I take so many videos of Monty...who at this moment just started gulping water down. I can tell even in the dark because her swallow sounds so funny when she's drinking, it's like a little squeak. And then after 4-5 swallows, she stands up and licks her cheeks a whole bunch, which makes all these smacking noises and looks so damn cute. ERMAGERD DE WIDDLE BUNNY MOUF, I loves it. And then she drinks more water.

oh and I'm really glad you like Tinypic! I'm in love with it too, it's just so damn simple. Photobucket has more flashy junk every time I log in, which is maybe once a year just to grab an older pic. All I have on there are really old photos from back when I started my myspace account. Yeah, weird...I never think of that site much either. But yeah, crap everywhere. Can't stand it.

 

[Katielovesleo3]

Morgan, I loved the video, very cute!!! Buster always does the same thing, just has to come up and smell the camera ha.

Ahhh Buster has decided he loves to drink out of a bowl and it is so funny to listen to him hehehe. its all kinds of squeaky and cute. But when I stare at him he stops mid-lick and stares back at me like "Do i amuse you?"

 

[whitelop]

Haha Katie, Buster is a riot! Hes so pretty and he sounds like a total character!

Yes Missy, tinypic blew my mind today! It was SO easy and it made the pictures the right size. At least i think it did?! I love it!

Glad everyone liked the pictures and video. I'll have to do more videos. I can only do it during the day because that's when the light is the best, but I'll try for more. So everyone can see her binky around and flap her ears. Haha.

Well its official, Ellie loves cilantro! I love that she loves it.

Today has been a good day for she and I. She decided today that I'm not scary when i come into the kitchen, that she can walk up to me with no fear. She usually hides until i sit down, but today she had her brave pants on! She let my husband walk right up to her and she sniffed his hand. She is definitely coming around. She just chased my cat across the kitchen.

Is it bad that the baby bunny has better litter habits than ALL the cats? I find that to be sad.
Also, I'm a little in awe of her. Not a single poop outside the litter box in like a week. That's pretty amazing right?! Like almost unheard of. She IS pooping, her litter boxes are FILLED. I have to change them almost every day now, especially her out of cage box. No pee out of the box in weeks either. (And to the dog food she goes! Ughh)

I really love that i can talk about poop and its acceptable!

 

[JBun]

Yay!!! Another cilantro lover. She did look pretty exited about eating it in the video

No pee out of the box in weeks either. (And to the dog food she goes! Ughh)

Well, she can't be totally perfect! She does have to have at least one little flaw

Haha, watch out kitties! That's so cute, and funny, that she all the sudden decided everything's not so scary, and that she can now be brave. Roo's bravery extends to no sudden scary sounds, and to the borders of the living room, lol.

 

[Chrisdoc]

Gosh you are lucky with no poops outside the little box, she´s a real star.

I love that she´s getting her bravery out now, well she is getting to be a big girl. And I laughed out loud imaging her scaring the cat.

Yippee another cilantro lover, you should try her on other herbs, mine love all of them basil, parsley, sage, tarragon and they eat mint. They also love endives.

Yes, talking about poop on her is compulsory and soooo acceptable. I´m always checking mine, I even smell it sometimes, is that toooooo gross.

 

[whitelop]

Foo loved mint. Some rabbits don't like it because its strong but Foo went nuts for it.

No Ellie isn't perfect! Haha. I am actually totally shocked there is no poop. Haha. I wish she was more cuddly and i wish she wouldn't eat dog food. Those are her 'flaws' even if small! Haha. She still gets scared of loud noises and runs and hides.

She's pretty mad at me right now. I haven't let her out of cage yet since I'm doing stuff and i need to change the big litter box. She is destroying her cardboard house in her cage. She's shredding it! I have a picture of her in her little litter box that I'll share later. And maybe i can get a picture of her now destroyed box. I have to throw it out now, since its the diaper box and it has the picture stuff on the outside.

Now off to finish the house cleaning!

 

[Chrisdoc]

Yeah, gross eh....

Mine didn´t like banana the first few times but now they can´t get enough. And I had to try them with some of the veggies more than once and even now, they have some days where they´ll eat them all straight away and others where they turn their noses up. Suppose they are picky buns haha.

 

[Katielovesleo3]

Morgan: thank you. He is a character for sure, he is so mad at me today bc I had to pick him up last night and apply flea treatment. I handed him a honey nut Cheerio as a little peace offering. He was inside his house at the time and he poked his nose out, smelled it, went back in and popped his head back out and grabbed the Cheerio with unnecessary attitude and went back inside the house. Ha.

I pick up the pops of there are ever any stragglers outside his cage and I toss them back in the litter box. I don't think it's gross since I used to pick up horse crap as a kid haha.

Great job Ellie! Even mine doesn't have perfect litterbox skills

 

[whitelop]

So i spent the better part of my night at my friends house, helping with wedding stuff. I got home a little while ago, to find my husband asleep on the couch because i forgot to put sheets back on the bed today and he didn't want to do it. I put sheets on, tucked him in. I came back down to turn the tv off, check the animals, do bathroom night time things. While I'm in the bathroom, i hear this serious commotion in the kitchen. I mean, cage rattling, scurrying around, thumping and bumping. So i run into the kitchen to find Ellie in the dog food bowl and Smokey Big Cat standing in the middle of the kitchen looking confused/scared. I am not entirely sure what happened but i do know that Ellie is acting like a lunatic. I came in and sat down with her and so far she has done 500 bunny 500's, she has jumped 4 feet in the air, eaten some cilantro and some dog food, and binkied around my whole kitchen like a bucking bronco. She also assaulted my fat cat, my robe and invaded my personal face space. I have no idea what the hell happened while i was gone, but i think she's lost her mind

 

[JBun]

Ok, I'm like seriously cracking up!!! Someone must have slipped Ellie some bunny 'crack' today. Either that, or she's REALLY happy you're home
