Aww...thanks, guys...I'm so happy things turned out so well.
Both bunnies are back home and in their cages now...took the opportunity to trim Trixie's nails (my first time...I'm so proud of myself, guys!), and gave Fiver his meds (they trimmed his nails at the vet's for free...aren't they sweet?). I even held Trixie for a minute or two...she seemed just fine with it.
In trimming her nails, we just bunny burrito'd her, kept her sitting on the table, and just too out each individual foot (keeping her face covered with the towel), and trimmed her nails!
And I have pictures!!

Trixie was first...this is me snuggling with her. I would move my arm (my left arm) away from her body, because she started feeling hot...but then she would nudge it and ask for me to put it back. It was really CUTE!
Then it was poor little Fiver's turn...he wasn't too happy about things. This is Em listening to his heartbeat. We didn't take any pictures of Fiver's turn out for his exam because he was just too stressed.
So, after we got home, I trimmed Trixie's nails, and then got up the guts to pick her up and hold her for a few minutes before putting her in her cage...
And then I gave Fiver his medicine, and held him for a few minutes...and he settled right on in...look at how he relaxes as the pictures progress...
And the cutest picture of all...
So, there ya go!
