Well today I decided to get my bunnies nails cut, I was too nervous to cut Thistle’s nails because he is a Kicker and his nails are black so I decided to bring them to the vet to get their nails clipped.

First off I tried to lure the bunnies into the carrier with paypaya tablets, that did not work, so I gave them the paypaya  as a distraction and tried to heard them into the carrier. That did not work either, so I ended up shoving Thistle in closing the carrier door and then shoving fern in while thistle tried to get out! (Do not worry I shoved gently). FInally they were both in the carrier!

Well At the vets they took the bunnies right away and I gave them a warning, “Thistle, the gray one, is a kicker.” I waited for a little less than ten minutes and then they were all done (yay). I asked how they did and the tech said, “Well Thistle definately kicked and it definately hurt.” I said, “Oh Im sorry.”

Once we were home I offered them some pellets as a peace offering. Thistle munched it like nothing was wrong, but Fern shot off into the condo and hid and sulked. I decided to give her some time to cool off.

I come back up to check on her an hour later and I hear the crumpaling of plastic bags and Fern is nowhere to be seen. I spot her in the box that I keep all the hay and pellets and litter. At first I thought WOW Fern jumped over the pen into there, I thought she was a very nimble bun. (the box I store things is outside the pen.) Well then I noticed that she had squeezed in a gap that I had forgotten to close after cleaning the bunny room.  I say Fern in my voice that she knows means she has done something wrong. When I try to get her out myself she hops out of the box squeezes through the barrier and hides again. I kept laughing though, it was so funny because she had been happily munching all the hay in the box, having the time of her life! It was just such a funny picture, and I thought, ‘If there is a way to escape, Fern will find it,’

Any other people have  mischiveous bunnies?
