        so the night before last baby started thumping on the promenade deck of her nic cage.  of course i was in bed.  so i got up & asked what was wrong and… nothing.  i surveyed the room, checked her physically & all seemed usual so i went back to bed.  not even 30 secs after my head hit the pillow… thump thump thump again!  so i got up again & sat in view of her cage but not really near & watched her.  she was angrily re-arranging her towel and then would thump.  this is a towel she’s used to having for bedding & it was freshly washed.  i wonder if she didn’t like the fabric softener or something?  she thumped randomly as i tried to goto sleep (which was late since i was distracted… sigh) and last night… nothing.    little brattina.

          LOL – it’s so frustrating when you cannot figure it out. They look at you like you should know too. This same thing happens to me frequently. I sometimes wonder if they are just playing mind games with us.

            That is so funny.  Thumping is weird.  It’s so loud! The first night we got Edson he thumped and it scared the bejesus out of me! I think it was the cat skulking in his room.  He’s never done it since.

              Thumping is scary!!! Last night me and Ricky were in the rabbit room and he was just sort of clicking the cap of a Powerade bottle with his nails and Bindi had a freakin bird and stomped like 3 times. He is the loudest stomper I have ever heard!! I almost had a heart attack! Stormy just has little gentle “stompletts” which is funny cuz he is the more aggressive bun by far.

                    I’ve yet to ‘see’ MoSimba thump but I’ve heard him once, when a big buzzard was flying low in the yard and I guess Mo saw him though the sliding glass door? I looked up after the thump and that’s all I saw at least. I guess Mo is a closet thumper(lol), or else just doesn’t get scared enough to thump?

                      For some odd reason, Holly only thumps at me. About an hour ago, I was standing up looking at a book. I was standing near her with my back towards her. I heard this thump. I looked down, and she was like ” Are you going to pet me or what?” Another time, I was working and she was playing with something. I told her to be quiet. I wasn’t loud or anything. She came out of her nest box thumped at me and went back to what she was doing. She’s a little snot sometimes, but it makes me love her more

                              Pepper disapproved greatly of the radiator last night.  It started hissing and clanking and she started thumping like crazy!

                                lolz.  very funny to read about thumping incidents.  some one here shared a video of her bun thumping when she unzipped her suitcase.  it was hilarious.  i love the ‘tude’ in thumps and what sets em off.

                                    I love how you refer to the part of her cage as the “promenade deck.” As if it’s a classy cruise ship. Full of poops.
