        I mentioned on another board how much easier it would be if rabbits spoke human – and it got me thinking, anyone else think this? What conversations would you have with your bun?

        With Luna I think it would be ‘Hey hun, would you mind not shredding up the carpet? I get charged for that, so I got you a new straw mat to shred up instead.’
        Luna: Oh, I didn’t realise that’s what that was for. Thanks mom.

        or,

        ‘Hey Merlin dude, you’re not very well at the moment so you have to take this medicine and you’ll feel much better.’
        ‘It tastes really gross though!’
        ‘I know little man, but I’ll give you a piece of apple afterwards for being brave.’

        So much easier! Or am I just crazy, talking to my rabbits? :p

                  I would love for them to understand things like how I need to pick them up sometimes and that its for their own good. Yes I wish they understood don’t rip up the carpet and try to always pee in the littler box and not miss. Sometimes Miss Kilala doesn’t get her butt all the way in the litterbox and I have seen her pee a little out the side. hehe

                  Of course I would tell them how much I love them and how I would love to cuddle them.

                  Who know what they would say back to me. I am sure it would be requests and questions about food and treats.

                      Me: Come on Marlee, give Mommy a little binky
                      Marlee: Not until you tell me how pretty I am
                      Me: Just one little binky Sweetie?
                      Marlee: Tell me I’m a pretty bunny
                      Me: Come on Sweetie
                      Marlee: (turns head away)
                      Me: Ok Sweetie. You’re such a pretty bunny.
                      Marlee: …..binkies down the hall

                          Cotton when I am not home do you like peace n quiet or the tv on.

                          Oh Cotton when we go to bed do you like to be covered all the way for privacy or have a gap

                          No Cotton we can’t go play outside anymore.  Its way too hot and you can get heatstroke way too easily in this heat.  Sorry Boo.  Come fall & winter and part of spring it will be just right n we can go out then to play. 

                          What is that noisy thing in that cage doing in here?  Shut it up.  Hey quit giving it attention.  Thump. I am your one n only.  Thump. You get the bunny butt for that.  Hmpf

                            lol, the dreaded bunny butt! So many times ive gone ‘and dont you stick that thing at me!’

                            Luna had a fall out with the partner, Merlin has to have medicine on his food at the moment, and she keeps trying to steal it. So Tom was down on the floor keeping her seperate and she ended up turning away and flicking her feet at him!

                            Tom: Don’t you take that tone with me young lady!
                            Luna: Screw you old man!

                                      I would ask Obie about all the deep things he ponders.

                                      Me: Roxie, I don’t think Caesar likes having his eyeballs gnawed on.
                                      Roxie: but mom, they are so tasty! I’ll leave enough for him to see with.

                                      Me: butternut, I know you’re in love with Jojo. But he’s a cat. You can never have his children. Just enjoy his love, little one.
                                      Butternut: awwww, mom!

                                        I’d like to know what her favorite foods and toys are. Also, we’d have to work out a contract for when I get to pet her, and in exchange for what.

                                          I think I would ask them if they lay around all of the time because they are bored, or just lazy?

                                          And then there would be this-

                                          *walks into bunny room and Roxi is flopped on her side in her “dead bunny flop”*
                                          Me: Roxi, baby are you ok!?!?
                                          *silence*
                                          Me: ROXI?????
                                          Roxi: Hooman! How dare you wake me from my beauty sleep! I got to maintain this lovely fur somehow you know….
                                          Me: Oops… Sorry!
                                          Roxi: Imma gunna give you the bunny butt! There’s only one way to get me to stop!
                                          Me: And what is that……
                                          Roxi: Nanersnanersnaners!
                                          Lionel: NANERS?
                                          Roxi and Lionel: NANERSNANERSNANERSNANERSNANERSNANERS!
                                          Me: Gosh you two! WHHHY?
                                          Lionel: It’s bunny crack.
                                          Roxi: *binky*

                                              There wouldn’t be too much conversation on the human end of things.

                                              Jared or Justina walk into the room.

                                                        It’s a long story but Riley hates when I use the gas stove. I love meat but Riley HATES the smell of it cooking, especially lamb. It got worse after I was cooking some chops and Riley freaked and ran right into the fence causing the gate to close then trying to get through the gate and getting stuck in it. He full on bunny 500ed into it at full speed, it was lucky he didn’t die. He wasn’t moving so I though he was dead because his head and all 4 paws were tangled in the bars. By some miracle he was ok so I carefully got him out and he ran and sat on his tray all day and night. So he hates when the gas is on for any reason, really hates when I cook meet and flips when I cook lamb. I had some for lunch yesterday and he’s still freaked.

                                                        Still if we could talk I’d tell him there’s nothing to worry about and the reason he got stuck was because he’s dumb like that.

                                                          I’m with Riley! I could never have a natural gas stove. One of those crazy fears!

                                                              Avantika, have you tried different brands of hay? My two will happily eat one brand for about two weeks then decide that they hate it :p vary it every couple of weeks or so, and throw in some dried grass too! Works for my fussy buns.

                                                                @Silverpaws : The only two types of hay I have an access to are alfa alfa and timothy. I am following some basic tips to make her eat more hay..and it seems to be getting just slightly better. Its funny because two weeks before, she used to have about 2-3 bowls of hay in a day.

                                                                1 hour later…

                                                                Moshu : I wont have what you want me to have but I can smell the veggies.

                                                                An eternity later…

                                                                Moshu : I love you.

You were gone for so long, I thought you had ditched us for your friends, and that made me sad, but then I remembered that you had to come back to get your phone because you forgot it, and I got happy again! Can I have some kale? Is it dinner time? Can I have some berries?
                                                                  Me: Wally, it’s not dinner time yet, bunny! How about some nose rubs?
                                                                  Wally: Nooooo, but I wanted foood! Why can’t I have yummies? I want yummies! Don’t touch me, you won’t give me yummies, and now you are pretending to love me and be nice and…oooh, that feels good…oh yes, right there…oh, I like cheek rubs, cheek rubs are nice…right behind the ears, yes….zzzzzzzz

                                                                              Hazel demands grooming. Obie just sits there.
                                                                              Me: Obie, lick her nose. I know you know how.
                                                                              Obie: stares of disbelief.
                                                                              Hazel starts thumping.
                                                                              Me: Obie! She’s gonna take you out sir! My monies on her! You better groom her or she’ll be mean!
                                                                              Obie: stares of disbelief and confusion.
