Drue is still a bit skittish about us unless he’s up in his condo where he’s at our level or we get down on the floor to his level, and usually then we have to be actually sitting down, not like crawling or anything.  I guess we seem less threatening that way.  Tucker’s so used to us she runs around in circles and jumps up on our legs when we walk around.  Anyway, this morning it’s Drue’s turn in the kitchen so that Tucker got the living room and the condos area.  Drue was a bit worried about us (mike and I) being in there and was spending a lot of time under the kichen table and in his cardboard bunny home.   Then it was breakfast time so I brought the kids in and Drue started running around and sniffing everyone and running around the whole kitchen.  Something about the kids puts him at ease!  He’s like a different bunny when the kids are around.  He also LOVES the dogs.  He loves when they go nuts and wrestle with each other.  He binkies around and tries to get to them to get in on the action!  I would think that a bunny that’s hesitant around quiet adults would cower at crazy hyper dogs or crazy hyper monkey children (I have a 3.5 year old, a 2.5 year old and a 7 year old) but it’s like that’s his happy switch!  It just baffles me LOL.   He’s such a silly bunny.  I’m guessing it’s because he was in the shelter and he was around the dogs and maybe he feels at home in chaos lol.  He definitely loves his one on one time with me but I literally have to be laying down on the floor for him to feel safe enough to come over to me.  He’ll let me pet him if I am sitting down but he won’t approach me much unless I’m on my stomach laying down.  Then he’ll come and climb on my back and give me kisses and groom my hair.   He’s so cute though, I love how he’s just a bumbling fluffy bunny and Tucker’s a prissy diva bunny hehehe.

They’re still having no problem switching condos every few days and don’t seem to mind each other’s smell.  I feed them right next to each other at night too and most times for breakfast (through the grids in their condos) and they don’t have a problem with it.  Their little boxes are all along the back wall too so they’re all lined up just Tucker’s two and Drue’s one are separated by a mesh grid.   I’ve found Tucker has actually been doing better about litter training since Drue’s been here.  I’m hoping that this means that all will go well when we start to bond. I think they’ll have so much fun once they get the big giant condo/pen all the time and when they can have both the kitchen/living room when they’re out.  They’ll also have more out time when all I have to do is gate off that side of the room and open the pen door.  Right now it takes a lot of configuring and so they don’t get out nearly as much.  I want to say they get out maybe 3-4 hours daily with a few days being longer then that.  If I have time before I go up to work I’ll set up the gates so that they can be out while I work and Mike just keeps and eye on them and then on my weekends I let them out in the morning and they are out all day until bed time.  But on my work days that I don’t have time to set up the gates Mike won’t do it because he doesn’t understand the way I do it and so they’re in their condo or pen all day until after dinner so they’re only out from like 7pm-11pm or so.  I feel so guilty though because I know they need more out time, so I can’t wait til Tucker is spayed and healed and we can start bonding them.  I have a feeling I’m gonna be in for a tough bond but hopefully I’ll be proved wrong.  Tucker could change a lot when she’s  spayed.
