Pipp is a little black (with white hairs) ND,and she's very much a people bunny. She's fearless,shewas never shy. She comesrunningwhenever she sees me, she jumps on my lap for pets andcuddles and grooming (she does the grooming -- of me).
Can't say she's'high strung' but she is definitely energeticduring her 'times'. A couple hours a day, twice a day, as arule she's either demanding my attention, licking and grooming menon-stop, or she's going after the cats. (They used to playwith her, butbefore she was spayed, she started getting tooaggressive, they've only recentlystarted to spend timeonthe floor again).
She may give me a tiny nip when I'm misbehaving, but I really have tohave been bad. She didn't mind being picked up and carriedaround when I got her, but now she expects me to come down to her level(which is always a surefire way to get her to come to you -- like ashot, skidding to a stop an inch away).
She lets me cut her nails, no problem, but since she's been molting,she doesn't want to bebrushed anymore. (Just whenshe needs it).
She's not caged at all, she's a free run bunny, although we had toestablish a smaller territory for her than the whole house.She hasher 'hutch' (an opendog kennel for her foodand litter tray), and my room, which is now herroom. (She let me stay, though). She islitter trained, except she'll leave little piles in front of the catsto mark her territory if she leaves my bedroom. She'll sleepon the bed with me. (She's good about letting me sleep).
Oh yeah... she's a chewer --stereos, computers,checks... Bunny proofing and other forms ofentertainment (old phone books, newspapers,toilet rollsstuffed with hay... other suggestions welcome) are essential.
But she's so darn cute.
