Stupid Flashy-box!

                            

Mom... we WERE sleeping...

                                     

Thanks for all the comments about the Barrie Bunnies and our Bunniversary! The other Barrie Bunnies that came in to Rabbit Rescue were adopted out, and have wonderful homes. Many were adopted by their foster homes, because we are very special bunnies!

                                                  

Happy Bunniversary to all the "Barrie Bunnies!"

One year ago today...

I was one of the baby bunnies taken from the farm. Norbert was all grown up already. Mom began fostering me, but soon fell for my furry adorableness and adopted me. THEN I started to cause trouble! She adopted Norbert in June.

Baby Me! I fit in Mom's hand!

   

So scared my first night at Mom's... She had to force feed me for about a week!

   

Look how small I am! From the start, I always liked to stretch...

    

...and flop!

    

Here is Norbert, soon after coming to our house, learning to relax!

    

And he found out he likes to flop too!

     

All the while, my ears were growing...

And we all know how that has turned out! Mom gave us tons of snuggles and kisses last night and this morning. It was a little embarrassing, really. A year ago today, we were taken out of the "meat farm" and now here we are, spoiled house rabbits. We would all like to thank, from the bottom of our furry feet, Rabbit Rescue Inc., and wish all our fellow "Barrie Bunnies" well today!

Tomorrow....

We haven't had a pretty Abbey picture up in a while! She gets everything she wants by batting those long lashes and giving a certain look with her big brown eyes...I always give in and groom her!

Tomorrow is a very special day everybun... Can you guess what it is?

Norbert's Beard

See, it kinda looks like a fat chin from this angle... but it isn't! Norbert has a beard! Man, he is so cool.

We had the patio door open all weekend! It was so nice to smell the outsides.

Nonsense and Stuff

Mom says we are getting lazy.

I don't know what the heck she is talking about!

On a side note (it's a side note because it's about MOM and not ME), Mom is going to be setting up some Rabbit Education days with the rescue she is volunteering with here. It's called Friends of Rabbits. She is hoping to have an education day once every month or every two months, over at PetMAC Arlington, who are wonderful for donating their space for the events.

Getting a little Shut Eye...

Silly Norbert! We caught him sleeping in the water dish! Norbert is quite a guy, really. He has lots of memories of abuse, so he gets scared so easily! A loud noise, or someone walking into the room even! He likes to smush himself into teeny little spaces, and needs lots of hiding places to feel safe. Norbert also does the "long hop" where he stretches out as far as he can to sniff around in front of him before he commits to the full hop! He has to make sure it's safe! He's my bro though, and he's a good snuggler, we like to smush up together and take turns grooming. He is such a treat hog though, do you know he even tries to take yummy treats right out of my mouth!

Little Bambi

Okay so gather around and I'll fill you all in on the story of our little Bambi. For those of you who don't know, Mom rescued Bambi in October of 2007 when she was brought over by a neighbour who didn't know much about bunnies. Bambi was really sick and had emergency surgery, Mom said her youtermus was full of infection and had to be taken out.
"No, Fez, U-TER-US."
I know, that's what I said. Stop interrupting. Anyway so Bambi was pretty old, about 8 or 9 years when she came to live with us. Mom got her exercising and eating right and Bambi was really sweet and loved to get snuggled. When I came as a baby, I liked to snuggle up with Bam and groom her face, until her fur became nice and shiny, but Abbey was pretty jealous. When we moved the first time, we all went together, but Bambi was kind of sick. So Mom had to keep her on her own and I didn't get to snuggle her anymore.
"You also always tried to eat all her food."
Well, she never ate it right away! Interrupting is rude. When we had to move the second time, we had a real long drive and Mom was worried about Bambi. She had this loud breathing thing, it sounded like she was wheezing all the time, and she was pretty old for a little dwarf bunny. Mom didn't think that Bambi would be able to handle the stress of a long drive. So Mom took Bambi to live with her good friend and wonderful bunny mommy named Debbie. She has lots of bunnies too, and is really nice. We all love her.
Bambi is living now with Debbie and still enjoys snuggles. Mom misses her and so do I, but we are glad that she is happy and safe!
Enough about that... doesn't this picture make my ears look amazing?!
