Hi,
I've been just like the rest of you guys in your shock and grief over losing Apollo. Still can't believe he's gone. :sad:
I've been spending a tremendous amount of time with my little ones. Thank God, I've been able to.
Fauna sits at my side the whole time she's out of her cage. Will notleave me. Sure, she'll run up to Tucker and demand he clean her eyes,but after he does, she beats feet right back to me.
Tucker has been binkying, getting into mischief, and digging and pulling at my pant leg/robe/ankles, any chance he can get.
Cali has been very mellow. She spends the majority of her free time inher cage. I coax her to come out; she'll come out for about 20 minutesand I make her sit for a grooming and then pet her, then she's back inher cage. :dunno:
Anyway, I haven't updated you guys in a while, but tonight something really shocking happened.
I've been really struggling with letting all three out together andseeing how it goes. Tucker and Cali are the ones that I had to watchwhen I first let them out. Tucker went after Cali. Believe it or not,it was Very Scary. They haven't been exposed to each other in the opensince. They're free time is separate.
Tonight, Fauna jumped in her cage willingly and started eating dinner.She had been out with Tucker for 6 hours. I figured it was Cali's turn.Just to see if Cali would come out, I opened her cage. Again, she justlaid there and didn't want to be bothered. Nudged her to encourage her,but she insisted, so I left her alone.
I then realize that I have to get Tucker in his cage because I justdon't have it in me to deal with them fighting. (I have a cold - no bigdeal.) Anyway, I try to get Tucker to go to his cage - Nothing. I grabthe crab net, and of course, as soon as I pick that thing up, The RaceIs On!
That rabbit took off running around the living room, right aroundFauna's cage, down Tucker Lane and Jumped right Into Cali's cage, andhuddled up next to her nose to nose. :shock:
I was thinking, 'Oh God, don't bite, Don't either of you bite!!' Talk about Right in her Face And in her Turf! :shock2:
Cali couldn't've put her nose further down on the ground and Tuckerhunched down with her until I was able to catch up, crawl in the cageand take him out.
I can't believe that he ran straight to her cage, and then they stayed together as if I was The Monster on the Loose.
This could be the start of something good.
