Exit Four

Over the Xmas break I decided to give foster buns Anouska and Bobbit a big box to play with. Or rather in - it was quite a big box.

When it comes to enclosed spaces, bunnies always like to have multiple exits. This is to provide lots of escape routes in the event of an incursion by predators or annoying owners with combs and claw clippers. So I cut three holes in the box, one in each end and one in the front. I also put a bendy-stick tunnel in to make it even more warreny. It looks like this:

I left the 'back' intact, i.e. no holes, to make it at least slightly enclosed. At least that was the theory. However, here is a picture of the back as it looks today:

As we all know, bunnies love projects, especially bunstruction (or rather bun-destruction) projects. I shouldn't be surprised.

"What? I can't have french windows in my new playroom?"

"And of course, bunstruction is a tiring and expensive vocation. Your bill is already overdue and the daily interest...well, let's just say you'd better hope the supermarket has the jumbo sacks of carrots in this week."

So that was that. Other than that, today was just another lazy Sunday with the bunnies. Hang on, I'm sure I'm forgetting something...

"Hey, what the...? Get those foster buns off my Sunday blog post!!!"

    1. It was a carpet shampooing thing, it's a couple of years old but I found the box while I was having a clearout. Despite being the "pet" version, it turned out not to be very good as the roller thingy got clogged with fur and stopped working.

  2. Regarding the " big box," everyone knows that if you want something done right, you let your bunnies do it. Surely Whiskey will be assuaged by having the last word. Does your lot ever say "thank you?"

    1. The only things they are thankful for they are too busy eating to thank me for and when they've finished they are too busy bugging me for more! So, in summary, no.

    2. Let me guess. I bet you are thinking that I didn't think carefully about my question. Well, you are right. It just kind of burst out. We are real sorry, B-HV, we are real sorry.
