  Quantum had to stay caged for a number of hours today (an hour and a half longer due to flooded out/closed roads and me trying to get home! But that’s another story…..) and she. is. miffed! I thought at first she was ill; she came out of her cage (I let her out the minute I got home) and has been sulking under the curio cabinet ever since. I was “allowed” a very few head (grooming) pets, but that’s it. I thought she was ill, but I just noticed her laying all relaxed and stretched out (ears up at halfmast, feet straight out behind), so I doubt that’s it.
  
  So…………how many hours/days/weeks of punishment am I due by the Queen of the Kingdom of Living Room? And does abject groveling help at all?

  All I have to do is casually shake the papaya tablets jar….and all is mysteriously forgiven.
  
  Until – as Beka said – next time.
  
  Like giving cilantro, instead of curly parsley…

  and yes, a banana slice helps EVERY time.
  
  (though you may not have the pleasure of seeing her chew it since you might still be staring at the opposite end.)

  Rabbitpam, I think you’re on to something there. Bananas….bunny kryptonite. About an hour or so after Quantum deigned to take a small slice of banana (“I’m still mad, but I suppose I could force myself to eat this, just to be the bigger bunny about it all.”), she started binkying and “Speed Racer” bunning all over the living room. A fair amount of head-pettage was also demanded. Peace once again rules our happy home.
  
  For a “voiceless” critter, they certainly have a way of letting you know when you’re in deep, deep bunny doo. Oh, and guess who got released out earlier than normal this morning……..Spoiled? Naaaaah. (Just a minute, Madam! I’m coming! Yes, Madam, the Romaine will be served shortly. Of course, only on the silver salver.”)

  Quantum, I know it can be frustrating – but it’s awfully funny when you tell it.

  Oh I know the feeling. Before I could trust Felony to be free range he was confine while I was in class. One day I was super late getting home. As soon as I walked in the door I let him out. As soon as I let him out he growled at me and and followed me all around the house head butting my leg for a solid 10 minutes. He wouldn’t even so much as take raisin from me. I had to actually place it near his cage and walk away from him. He was PISSED!!!
