So that thread earlier that we mentioned jumping around and then having your rabbit doing binkies back to talk with body language? I tried it again tonight and took a video with Indy!!! Don’t watch if you get motion sickness
I’m jumping around a lot with the cam!

Aw! That is sooo cute! I love it when the buns run around like that on the bed. I’ve never tried talking to them with binkies, but I should. I’l let you know my results.
PS You’d better sleep with one eye open. lol. I’ve always wanted to snatch Bun, but now with Indy there, too… that’d be a really good score! lol
LMAO So cute!
oh man, that is sooooo cute! and you’re really speaking his language!
OK. Let me recap what I see in the video: there is a rabbit fast enough to participate in the Indy races, coincidentally named “Indy”, in a bed for a human… she tells you to binky…and you do… the best part is that she has you believing that it is all your doing/teaching.
–BTW, Lint is wondering if you are actually a rabbit yourself, Lintini!
I am having weird problems accessing this video. utube wanted me to subscribe so I did I still can’t see the vid. ? drat
it said something about being added to this persons account who posted the video so I sent the request I hope that is all it takes and I dont’ have to do this for every video I want to see.
No Pinky is not on the fritz again. She has been behaving beautifully
HAHA PETZY!!! SO TRUE!!
Lara – Noooooo!! I love my new little guy, and I don’t think you have enough raisins to satisfy Bun’s needs rofl!
Thanks for the kind words everyone
BT – I’ll upload it on photobucket for you to see
That would be great I was looking for this post to see if I could see it and I still can’t for soem reason I don’t get the play button and stuff when it comes up just a black square
Hmm sort of reminds me of the red squares I got from Pinky when posting pics lol
..ok, I tried.
Monkey just gives me weird looks. Maybe I’ll try with Max.
Ooo yes Les, tell us how it goes!! Or at least take a picture of monkey giving you weird looks!
Hehe, that video makes me giggle every time I watch it!
Awe, Indy is adorable! My baby Nixie loves to do those little binkies all on my bed and dressers and everywhere else she can get into. ![]()
Absolutely precious!
I tried it with Calypso… he ran away from me! 🙁
I don’t think my bunny understands that other creatures can speak Rabbit.
He just ignores me when I binky.
Ok, so I had to try this last night. I jumped around like an idiot and Otto came running over to me soo fast and stood up to look at me. I think he wanted to make sure I was still ok and hadn’t lost my mind 😛
now that I remember clearly when I tried to binky with Cotton he got mad and growled at me and boxed at me. Was so funny. HE didn’t want me to binky only him.
or as I thought it may have scared him lol
LOL bunntowne!!! Cotton is a little tuffie!!
I have another theory. I do believe Indy is binkying because of the soft crinkly sheet. I have noticed many rabbits binky on crinkly blankets.
Jeez Petzy!! Way to rain on my parade! Lol jk!!! I don’t really know, it would be cool if he did do it because I was jumping, but you could be right, he maybe just really likes my bed and was happy I was giving him attention. He is constantly on it though, so I know he does like it a lot.
I tired the dace around like a loon for my guys, Anya went back to sleep and Bugz bit me! I think that is becomeing his normal response for “What ever you are doing stop it! I am tying to do real important bunny things here!”
I can’t wait to try this, although in the past my buns have just looked at me like I was loopy.
I have given my buns bunny butt before when I’m P’off at them, and played grooming and flopping wars. I used to flop down next to Charlie, which would make him flop LOL. Grooming wars with Layla are always fun, except she eventually gets annoyed at me for my impertinence and runs over to demand pets and ensure her dominant status.
Bunny status quo
1. Charlie
2. BF
3. Layla
4. Carpet, dirt, lounge, litter tray
5. Me ![]()
