Snoozing Saturday

Hiding from Monday

Here's Eta, she's hiding from Monday, I'd like to join her, maybe not in in hutch as I'm not sure I'd fit but hiding from Monday seems like a plan to me.

Monday again

That Monday feeling again... Sigh.

Although I might not fit in Odysseys Moult & Bolt box, I'm fairly certain if I breathe in (a lot) I can squeeze underneath Eta's hutch with her

Somebuns got their brave pants on

Eta and her brother David are probably our shyest rabbits with the exception of our wildie crosses.

Recently they got the chance of moving into a large aviary.

After a couple of days of being very frightened and refusing to come out of the hutch or rabbit tower, Eta has decided she really quite likes the aviary and even runs up to greet people now.

Meet the Fosters 2

As it is a busy holiday boarding season at the Rescue, we are taking in another foster pair at home for the rest of August. I asked Caroline to choose which bunnies might be most suitable for a three week holiday and she decided on these guys, who arrived yesterday to take up residence in the garden.

They are a little bit nervous, but not excessively so, and have pretty much settled right in. However, we have a slight issue to overcome in that David has had a grudge against me ever since one day at the Rescue when I had to pick him up to check a lump on his nose. There was some staring and poking (me), some stomping and grumbling (him), basically he was entirely unimpressed with the whole incident. He has gone out of his way to avoid me ever since so we have some trust-building to work on.

Well anyway, meet Eta (pronounced Etta) and David (!).

"Loving the run! But can you maybe turn down the sky sprinklers a couple of notches?"

"As you can see, my nose is perfectly fine now, so make yourself scarce until it's time to make with the dinner snacks."

Mary and Joseph

Eagled-eyed readers of 'Yours' might spot some familiar faces in this weeks issue. Mary, who currently lives with Joseph in Caroline's bedroom, is featured in the magazine along with two of her five babies. We did try to get them all in but...well. Let's just say that was probably a bit optimistic on my part.

"Er, guys? I think maybe we're supposed to be facing the other way..."

Can't Hear the Reindeer

I had a go at taking some pictures of Mary and her little ones over the weekend in the hope of creating some promotional pictures for the Rescue. Being for use in December articles, I tried introducing some festive decorations and asking the bunnies to pose in front of them. They were not impressed and the shoot did not go well.

I tried telling them it really isn't that far off, but apparently they refuse to acknowledge Xmas is approaching when it is still only November...

"Tra la la, not listening, tra la la!"
