Friday Flash 55 #4

A close call. My patient brought her 6 year old son. She needed time alone with the acupuncture needles.  I lured him out with books. After reading one about fish the next was The Velveteen Rabbit. I started tearing up around the time the rabbit got real...luckily it was time to check on mom.

This is Hermes he was my foster rabbit for much of last year. He is a Rex rabbit.
Rex's have no undercoat resulting is fur like velvet(een).
He did find his forever home and you can read about it HERE.
You can find out more about rescue rabbits and the Rabbit Haven HERE

Bun Shui

 It's happened again there's a rabbit in the kitchen.  Even with a sheet over his pen Daikon was too noisy for the DS who sleeps until the early afternoon hoping that there will be lunch leftovers. Daikon has taken up residence under the kitchen table, rendering it unless for anything that requires sitting at it using a chair.

Who needs a table when you can see this face looking at you?

When moving to a new location first own it!

Then be it!

Explore the extent of your known world.

Then go into the Great Unknown.

Daikon; The Movie Trailer

I made this little movie for our foster, Daikon. It's my first attempt at working with video in iMovie, but as you can see he is a super star!

Over Due and New

First and foremost I have been having fun with ANALOG filters and frames.

This is the first photo I Analogged, I was feeling nostalgic for Hermes. At long last I received a photo of Hermes with his new bunwife, unfortunately is was a poor print out so I can't share it. Well, I guess I could, maybe in my next post.

And here is an Analogged Harriet, this photo was, in sense, saved by the filter with brought out the darks, before the whole thing was very monochromatic. Harriet has been living on her own between main pens. Sydney has always chased her, but recently Harriet has been thumping out it. I am hoping it is somehow a step to combining her with Amelia.

And here she is, I love what happened to this photo. Already a strange one now it looks like a Victorian portraits.

And Sydney, we almost lost Sydney on Friday. Thursday evening she skipped her greens but seemed fine otherwise, it is something she sometimes does with no ill effect. Friday morning she still seemed to not be eating, but I had to go to work. By the afternoon she was getting cold and lethargic. I made an appointment with a rabbit vet I did not know. Her temp was 92, rabbits should be over 100 up to 105. There were no blocks in her stomach, but it is dangerous to feed a cold rabbit. Towels warmed on the heater did the trick, she perked up, had some assist feeding and by midnight was boxing with Amelia through the fence.

Tyler as art bun and ladies man.

Our second foster, did I not say no more fosters? this is Bernadette. She is full of piss and vinegar. The most vocal rabbit I have met, honking, grunting, whimpering. The vet could find anything wrong with her lungs, which I wondered might explain some of her noises, and thought it most likely "behavioral". She'll be appearing on Disapproving Rabbits sometime this week, and that will probably be the only thing she approves off.

And finally Radish, he is getting more friendly and decided he loves to be petted, we are working on being picked up and carried...

Next time: Rabbit Massage, Hermes and His Bunwife and whatever happened to the Water Dragon?

Fail

Hermes the foster has been to four adoption shows and met two lady buns and come home from each one having refused to engage or has acted too terrified to move. In my kitchen he is a happy fellow, a snuggle bun, beauteous and sweet....

Hermes The Foster

Hermes is having his bed time snuggle,

he is going to make someone a wonderful forever bun.

I Said...

I said I couldn't take fosters, I said I wouldn't take fosters, I said this because I know in my heart I would want to keep the foster, now there is a little Rex boy living in the kitchen waiting for his forever home.

This is Hermes.

Oh did I say I've taken out the kitchen table and chairs to make room for him? no, problem, really, I'll just sit on this footstool and use this teeny folding table for my computer.

No, no we don't need a table to eat off of, no, not at all. Rabbits are more important, after all humans survived for millions of years without kitchen tables, they are hardly a necessity for survival.

Apologies for spotty posting, I've been rather distracted and busy with some family matters. See HERE.
