        Last year I ordered stuff from Binky Bunny during Valentine’s Day and the free gift was a small heart shaped slinky.  Parsnip (our foster bunny at the time) would play a little with it but not to much.  Archie and Gracie aren’t crazy about toys so they never played with it.  Well last night my husband found it in a box of extra rabbit stuff and gave it to Sandy and…she loves it!  We took some video of her playing with it, it’s too cute!  I love how Archie was just watching her like “what ARE you doing?”  Enjoy!

        Oh does anyone know where you can buy those bigger plastic slinkies?  Looked in Walmart today but they just had metal ones.

            That is so funny! So great that you found this old toy – I should see if I can get a hold of one too.

            By the way, I love Archie just looking at her and wondering…

              Now THAT is playing !  My bunz like slinky’s as well but not that much – how fun!  I think we got our 2 small ones at the Dollar Store & the larger one at Toys R Us.  Probably even drug stores carry them.  I’ld say you should take stock out on them…so much fun!!!

                Thanks Lucky, I’ll have to check those places out!  I never thought of the dollar store.  I have a bigger one but it’s metal.  

                My fav. part is when she’s chewing on it in the 1st video and it bounces up and down like a yoyo   We also bought this Oball (I think that’s what it was called), it’s a small ball that is all open with big holes so she can grab it and bounce it all around.  She plays with it a little but she prefers the slinky.  For a second we thought it was stuck in her mouth because she was moving her head all around and holding onto it like she got it caught on her teeth but she was just being silly

                    Yes she is!  She finally grew into her ears hehe!  Weighting in at 7lbs now   I can’t believe how much she has grown.  This is her when she was a baby at the shelter http://www.petfinder.com/petnote/displaypet.cgi

                          It is hard to tell what a rabbit will find as their favorite toy. I heard of one rabbit that absolutely loves an egg whisk. How the heck they found that out, I don’t know…

                              One of our dollar store has MANY things for bunnies.  We got carpet squares with a rubber backing that are about 3’X3′ and work great.  We put some in their room since we have hardware floors and our cat Lucy has a couple in a few corners where she sleeps.  Wiffle balls are pretty fun ’cause they can pick them up with their teeth pretty easily.  Ken bought about 50 golf-wiffle balls and filled one of their boxes with them.  They spent quite a bit of time getting all of them pushed out.  Unfortunately they had a hard time picking them up with the small holes, but they “pushed” them out.  You can also get shower curtains for floor protectors underneath floor coverings (we use fleece).  That way if an accident occurs, no stains on the carpet underneath!  Lainey likes her “barrell of monkeys”.  We open it and she flips it around & flings the monkeys all over.  I am amazed at what “toys” we have ended up with – everything I see at stores are potential bunny toys now .  My favorite part was your bun running around with the slinky flopping around her face!  Gotta show Ken the video…

                                  I found a website that sells the plastic slinky for $5.50 and the plastic slinky jr for $3.00 (along with a bunch of other types).

                                      I bought a big rainbow-colored plastic one at Target. I got a metal slinky at the same time, and I’m pretty sure the plastic was not made by the slinky brand. but it was really good, and i cut it in half to get two because it was extra long.

                                        Yeah we have a dollar store just down the street, I’ll have to check there this weekend…plus see what other goodies I can use (those are some great ideas lucy!) Oh that’s a good idea about cutting it in half rabbitpam!
                                        Thanks for the website bunnyluvr, if for some reason I can’t find it in the stores I’ll have to order it online.
                                        Yeah that’s all she’ll do is run up and down with the slinky bouncing everywhere hehe! I didn’t get to bed until 1am that night when we taped her (that was the first time we gave it to her) and I was so entertained by watching her I didn’t realize how late it was hehe!

                                                    Entertaining alright.  She is funny.  Then I saw the other bunny on the other side of her pen all by herself there wondering whats all that fun.

                                                    Cotton has one and Fouad attached it to his cage.  I am going to take it off so he can play with it.  HE bounces it around then throws it off  his shelf.

                                                    Funny I was going to put a piece of video with Cotton chewing his willow basket up.

                                                    thanks for sharing with us
