        It had to be asked..

        Anyone know if it can be passed to bunnies? (Or cats and dogs for that matter?)

          I doubt there is any data out about that since it seems they are focusing on people not animals at this point and there just isn’t much data out there at this time on this anyway.

            I don’t know, but unless there’s a high incidence of it in your area I really wouldn’t worry too much about it. The regular flu kills 36,000 people in the US every year and yet the media doesn’t seem to care too much about that (although I did note CNN mentioning it today)

                LMAO!!!! Too funny!!!

                Most diseases, once they’ve mutated to leap species, can’t just leap to another. There’s no more risk of your bun getting swine flu then any other flu or cold-there’s always a chance it can mutate and jump species but not likely

                  I hadnt thought of it getting passed to buns!!  Im a worrier and have been keeping up with the stories, I cant blieve I havent thought about this until now.  Is it wierd that I think im more worried about the buns getting it then myself? Lol, though I wouldnt think they could get it.  Maybe bunnies will rule the world next!  Yea I know, bad joke.

                        My daughter got it for me the other day…she found it in the kids’ section at Barnes. She saw bunnies and she knows how much I love them, so….

                        It’s called “Happy Happy Clover” and I think the author is S.Tatsuyima or something like that? >_< I'm really bad with names, especially Japanese ones.

                        The whole cover is in the thread in the Lounge called “I have the best daughter”

                        It’s pretty simple story wise, but funny and of course, painfully cute bunnies in it. ^_^
