Last night, I had to make up with my bunny Nibbles. Since I got back from Texas I have not spent time with her other then some nose rubs and talking to her when I feed and water the rabbits. I got Niblet out of her abode and took her out to the living room and she got a good brushing and her nails trimmed. She laid on my chest for a very long time enjoying the loving she was receiving.
I asked Karen if Nibby looked ok, I said she is not acting like her normal self when I bring her out into the living room. Well I stopped petting her and she hopped off my chest, thumped me while on the couch and hopped off onto the floor. I said ok Nibbles let me pick you up and give you some more attention and she kept running away from be and didn't stop until we were back into the bunny room.
When I went into the bunny room to hand out treats, it didn't look right. Then I realized it was the big hole that once had Thumpers cage in it. I reached up to get the banana chips and heard the rustling of bunny's eager for their treat. Rudy's cage door was open and he hopped out, he usually does because he can't wait his turn, he came over to where I was (the spot where Thumpers cage was) and instead of asking for his treat he looked for Thumper. He sniffed all around, telescoped, he even stretched to look into Oreo's cage. He hopped around still searching the room. He hopped towards his cage and telescoped looking into the cages on the second level hoping to see Thumper. Finally I reached down and said here Rudy, here's your banana chip. Normally he will take it and hop into his cage to dine, but instead he stayed near where Thumpers was and nibbled on it.
Karen got little Blue out and she is such a sweetie, she enjoyed her time out in the living room too.
When I was cleaning cages, I let out Sweeties two boys, she was at the front of her cage waiting to be let out. I have been letting her out to play with the black flemmies since they were all little kits. She knows when she sees them its PLAYTIME! So while I was taking down Thumpers cage and cleaning some of the others, I was entertained with speed binky's, jumping binkys, twisting binkys and many others. They all had a good time.
