Friday, May 12th:

So, since this is a bunny blog, I figured I might as well start updating it!


As of now, little Trixie is about 3 months old. We brought her home onApril 5th, 2005 and according to the person we got her from, she was 6weeks old at the time.
Took her to the vet a week later, and the vet said she seemed more like 8 weeks old.
The date was 4/15/06, so I am guesstimating her birth date was 8 weeksprior to that....being 02/18/06. So since my little Trixiewas born so close to Valentine's Day, we have decided to celebrate herbirthday on Valentine's Day so it's easier to remember. She weighed 2lbs and got a clean bill of health.

On her first visit to the vet, Dr Jennifer Saver of Carrots and Catnipsin New Hyde Park confirmed Trix is a female and of an "independent"nature. Originally, I was worried this meant she could care less aboutme, and more about her own litle world. BOY was I wrong!

Trixie is growing to become an independent, yet EXTREMELY inquisitvebunny. Yesterday, as I was sitting on the floor putting hay in her hayrack, she was literally climbing up my back...over my feet, on my lap,eating my hair, nudging my hands, tugging my pant legs, gnawing mysneakers....it was HYSTERICAL!
She now comes running up to me whenever I enter her room, and doesbinkies almost on command. As soon as I say "Gonna get ya!" and scratchthe floor in front of her, she TAKES OFF all over in binky mode.
She is always in the middle of everything that goes on, and has become more and mroe affectionate every day.
My friends and family, especially my husband (who has never had abunny) are amazed at how smart and friendly she is. So many people havethe wrong idea about bunnies and expect a hamster with longears....imagine their shock when that little hamster with long earscomes running up to you when you call her name! :D

Tuesday night wefinished building her a new NIC condo that is42"w x 42"h x 28" deep. Today was her first day exploring the 3rd floorof her condo. We changed theshelving from linoleum (slippery)tiles to peg board (rough side up) at the recommendation of Laura fromthese boards. WHAT A GREAT IDEA! Lots of traction, lightweight, andvery inexpensive.
Definitely a home she can grow into and not out of.....

Tonight I will introduce Trix to Romaine lettuce (less than 1 oz pieces) and see how that goes....

Until tomorrow....

It's so gratifying when people's eyes truly OPEN and they begin tounderstand that bunnies are not disposable pets.....the more people areeductaed, the better for the bunnies....
