Zeus and his does

[TinysMom]

Zeus is in my office now.....and the door is shut so he has to stay in here. Miss Bea is in her cage.

He's been drinking a lot from his water but he's still a bit jumpy if I move. He likes to sit and stare at me and many times he not only wiggles his nose but moves his mouth as if he's silently talking to himself....

Well - he just was exploring and came over and nudged me andt hen took off running as soon as I went to pet him.

CRUD - now he's no top of Cassonova's NIC pen - it is 1 panel high and has a cover on it.....ah...now he's back down....and watching me again.

Oh well - I'm going to get back to working on the room and getting Cordelia moved out of what will become his pen so he can have the biggest pen in here....

I forgot to add - he will let me pick him up if I need to - but he doesn't seem to care for Art messing with him at all....

Hmm....should be interesting..

I must admit, there aren't many pictures I see that cause me to have tears of happiness, but these ones absolutely did. I've been waiting to see this (re)union, and would love to have been there in person...the love that comes from these photos is just so wonderful. Zeus looks so happy, even through his trepidation (new sights, sounds, faces). I think he knew that he was finally going home, with his mom.

LOL...the pics of Miss Bea with Zeus reminds me of Raph and Scooby. Scoobs wasn't neutered when I got him, and well...he found Raph to be quite physically appealing...especially his head, just as Miss Bea apparently did with Zeus. Only Raph wasn't quite so patient, and when Scooby tried once to often to 'share his love', well...his scheduled neuter at the vet's almost became a home neuter, compliments of a very 'doesexual' Raphael. :shock:

Oh and Peg, as for the height of the X-pen...I have some NIC panels around the front of Yofi and Anna's cage, and while Anna never attempts to scale them - they are two panels high - Yofi clears them with the grace of an Olympic equestrian. Two panels high are nothing to him, and he absolutely hates being caged at all (however, if I want to continue living in my house without it becoming reverted to Yofi decor, the cage is a must when I'm not around).

I suspect you won't have many problems at all bonding Zeus and Miss Bea, if they were able to get along as well as they did when you first put them together. Miss Bea might have been amorous/dominant, but no fighting is a great sign. I'm so glad to hear that all went well, and most importantly, that


ZEUS HAS FOUND HIS WAY HOME, AT LAST :hug:

Tony does this ALL the time. When he manages to escape the play area, he'll sit in the middle of the room doing that until I find him. Then I have to like call to him or scoot him back in the play area.

It's hilarious when they "mutter" is what I call it.

You will need to click on the photos to see them more clearly...













and finally...

I wasn't that bad - can't I come out to play?

For some reason his eyes are coming out red (from the flash) even though I tried to take out the red eye effect. Sorry - his eyes are really much prettier.

I now have five bunnies mad at me...

1. Miss Bea - she was caged and now I've penned Zeus so she can't kick his rear after mounting him
2. Zeus - how dare I pen a god?
3. George - I had to put a BUCK next to him? He was in love with both Cordelia and his sister and had hoped for a trio someday once they all were neutered...
4. Cordelia - she got moved away from George? Oh well - at least she has Cassnova - but her pen was BIGGER before...
5. Cassanova - he had to move.....

Oh - and Sport is wondering why Zeus can't come lay down next to her again - she thought he was cute - even if she was ignoring him.

I'm doing a great job on my first day as a new bunny mom to Zeus...

I wanted to add that Zeus' pen got swept out - but its gonna get mopped (the tarp) during his next playtime out of the pen.

Miss Bea was really upset to be locked up so I had to pen him so she could be free again for a bit...

Edited to put in Zeus' name instead of George's...

That last photo is pitiful! "Mama you ruined all da bunny's fun!"

 

[TinysMom]

Well - this is from a couple of hours ago...

 

[naturestee]

His facial expressions look so much like Oberon's. How big is he? Looks like he's maybe around the same size as Tiny?

And when is he moving up here?:biggrin2:

 

[Bo B Bunny]

OH MY GOODNESS! He pulled the "I'm just scratching my ear - then slide closer to the girl" move!!!

I'm so glad they are getting along ok

I hope to take him to the vet either tomorrow or Tuesday to get a weight on him. Ivory thought he was about 13 pounds....and Tiny's weight at the vet's that last time was 13 pounds and 3 ounces.

Moving up there? NEVER EVER EVER EVER.

In less than 24 hours of having him here - I'm already attached to him. Sorry...

He does remind me of Oberon too - not sure why. Then again - Oberon reminded me of Apollo who was also one of my favorite flemmies...

I suspect we're starting to see Zeus' true colors.....hmmm.....yep.....life will be interesting.

So far he's been pretty quiet....sleeping (I swear - I think he was PLOTTING his next moves).

I decided to let him out to play and after Miss Bea chased him around a few times (boy was she NOT happy)...we put her in his pen to let him play.

He wasn't out even five minutes when he....well...let me back up a bit.

Today I rearranged the cages. George and Gracie are still where theywere - then Milina went back in the rabbitry - and I moved Cassanova into Milina's cage and put Cordelia in Cassanova's cage. This way I had a row of boy/girl/boy/girl and Zeus couldn't get to Cassanova along the side of his cage to pee at it. (Tiny liked to pee right at the end of Cassanova's cage). George & Gracie both have two NIC panel high cages - and Cass and Cordelia have 1 NIC panel high cages (with covers).

So what does he do?

He jumps on top of Cordelia's cage - goes over to stand on Cass's cage...

and deliberately sat on the part of the cage above Cassanova...


and

[align=center]PEED.

A lot.

[align=left]As I was typing this - he followed Robin out into the living room - the next thing I heard was, "Get out of the rabbitry" as Art went after him.....


Yep.....I suspect we should change his name to "Yofi the Second"....

[Zeus]

Oh come on everyone....let's get the facts straight.

Mom let me out of my pen. I was bored. I've been locked up in that stupid office forever....everyone knows that the living room is where the real living takes place.

Dad was blocking my way by standing in the doorway. As I said...I was bored. My litterbox was in my pen and suddenly I got an urge to relieve myself.

Everyone knows you don't pee on a girl....but bucks are fair game...

So I went to the bathroom....big deal.

Mom paid attention to me afterwards...and then I followed Robin out to the living room....

I can't help it if all the pretty does were calling me to the rabbitry. What was I supposed to do? After all - I had my choice between a bunch of friendly does and the witch back in the office.

I did what ANY self-respecting buck would do. I jumped in.

And the next time that "DAD" person with the deep voice holds me like a baby as he carries me - I'm gonna....well...I'll save that for later.

Now - do we have the facts straight?

GOOD.

By the way - it was nice of you humans to name a god after me before I was born. I appreciate it.

Now go away.

 

[Bo B Bunny]

Oh my goodness! he's already showing his Yofiness! That is too funny! somehow tho, I can actually see him doing that!


See, I have Zeus pegged this way (I know this sounds crazy but I can almost see his personality in his pictures!):

1. So sweet and gentle to look at when he's resting and quiet. So nice and lovey when he wants his ears rubbed and attention (which he'll want a lot)

and then......

2. All Hell breaks loose when he wakes up, finds his energy (recharged!)and decides he's got to entertain himself.

 

[TinysMom]

Aw......Zeus looked so sweet and innocent this morning when I walked into the office....why how could anything this sweet cause any trouble?







I mean - other than sleeping in his litter box and pooping on the floor...he's a sweetie - right?


So explain this???



We put a temporary cover on George's cage so that Zeus wouldn't jump in there...

Peg

 

[Bo B Bunny]

I've got him down pretty well I think! :roflmao:He is going to keep you young, girlfriend! (or drive you batty...... )

 

[TinysMom]

Well - I didn't add this....I probably should have.

Last night when I turned off my light and left the office...Zeus was sleeping.

I walked back in about 5 or 10 minutes later - and he was standing on his hind legs and I think he was trying to scale the pen into George's cage...that's why we put the temporary cover on George's cage.

So we put the pen cover back on....I walk out - a few minutes later I sneak back and Zeus is trying to figure out how to get out of his pen....

I think I better buy stock in the company that makes NIC panels...cause I'm gonna need a ton of them.

I'm dying to take him outside later this afternoon and watch him play...

:laughsmiley:He was just trying to come tell you that George was being bad... He wasn't trying to escape and pee on anyone or anything! Goodness!

But of course....

Oh is he ever a character. Apparently he doesn't know when I can see him when I walk down the hall.....like how good my vision is?

We were out running errands and he must've heard the front door open.

As I'm walking down the hall towards the room - I first seem him standing on his hind legs looking out the pen.

However, as I hit the door (about a 6' or 8' hall at most?)....he's in his litterbox - batting his eyelashes as he appears to be just waking up....

Bo...what DID you get me into?
