Wednesday Bunday


Dating Update: I've swapped Harriet over to the front BunZone and she is having friendly and heavily supervised meals with the Spots. Everybun has their portion of salad measured out into what I imagine is usually a french fry basket. I got 6 at Cost Plus World Market for $5.99. Last time, when Amelia was joining, I also got salad containers but they have since found a useful life containing supplies and gadgets in my Acupuncture to-go bag. The baskets are nice because they are light and encourage tossing and tipping, which increases the entertainment value for all.


Another piece of bonding equipage has been a splatter screen. One of the bonders at Rabbit Haven had mentioned this and it seemed to me like it's time had come. Easier to use than a sphaghetti strainer for potentially aggressive bun meetings, it also has a handle for safe extension. You can see it in use in the picture.

After the popularity of Harriet and Quan Yin I thought I'd try to get some shots of Amelia and Quan Yin, but she was having nothing to do with an arranged photo shot. Instead she would rather show you around the mint pit, a little dip with earth and plant just off the deck....

And now Fiona Bun wants her own mint pit...

So many interesting elements in this post. Is Harriet also living with the Spots, or just coming by for meals? The french fry baskets are a great idea, no one would get hurt if someone else flung one at them: also good for traveling buns. The splatter screen is also an interesting and eminently practical re-purposing. Amelia might feel that she needs to stake out her own territory, thus her sojourn to the mint meditation garden. (My cats like all things mint, but the buns would greatly prefer a dandelion dive.)

Some great ideas for the buns. Will have to try them, especially the splatter guard.

Amelia looks like my Matilda. Great shots of her in the mint pit.

The Greatest Show On Earth! This bonding IS going to happen. Keep trying.

Your love for rabbits - I salute

OOOH Mint!
My mint is still alive.
I never get any.
Paula Pullet keeps eating it.
It stays nubs mostly.

Never would have thought to serve salads in something tossable, but they hide greens all over the house so why not?? Kind of makes me think i might be serving a bit too much though...

So, Harriet is with the Spots, and Amelia is all alone?? :-( You'll get there.

Amelia looks so pretty in the mint.

Love the salad baskets, love the bunnies....

Amelia, thank you for the tour and tell your mum to put a shield on the handle of that bun separator. Maybe an extension even.

Splatter guard - we used to have one - I KNOW someone gave us one. I've looked all over and can't find it.

MUST GET SPLATTER GUARD.
