        So I got myself some new bunny slippers… and Kate’s afraid of them!  Whenever I walk past the pen she runs and hides. lol, poor silly bunny. I have no idea why they are so scarey, I’ve definitely worn slippers before, but she acts the same way she does when our tortoise is out during his tank cleaning.  It’s very silly!

          Awe!

          I freaked Lolli out one night. I have absolutely no clue. When I went to the bathroom, everything was fine. When I came back out, she got all scared and ran for her box. There was nothing different about me. lol

            Haha, silly Kate! Bunnies are spooked at the randomest things sometimes…once I walked into the room and Peppy bolted, thumped several times, and dashed into her “safe place” in her cage. She also gets really scared/alert when somebody makes a SHHH noise. Hmm, you should try different animal slippers and see what happens! lol

              I scared Moose yesterday when i had hiccups. He was thumping at me like crazy. Couldn’t figure out what was wrong with him at first, so I was getting worried about what could be wrong with him. Which made my hiccups go away.

              Moosie was much happier after the scary hiccups were gone lol.

                Haha! I can see why bunny slippers would be scary to her. My bridge bunny Velvet used to hump the bejeebers out of these big furry black monster feet slippers my bf had. She probably thought it was a good looking bunny since she was black and furry too! It was really funny but we realized it was time to get her spayed!!!

                  I had bunny slippers in the past and some of my bunnies I swear were jealous of them! They would attack and nip them.

                  Shamrock yesterday was thumping when I was stamping some papers with one of those self-inking stamps. He wasn’t that freaked out, I don’t think, because he was thumping not as hard as I know he’s capable of when he’s really upset. I think maybe he was more like . . . annoyed. But it was kind of funny because it got into a rhythm between us: “Stamp stamp (thump) stamp stamp (thump) stamp (thump) stamp stamp (thump)” – pretty funny.

                    Maybe he was in competition with the stamp? LOL

                      Yeah! Maybe he’s got rhythm and it was his way of contributing to the percussion session! LOL!

                      Either that or it was just “Mom, I disapprove of that. (Thump.)  You did it again. (Thump) I still disapprove. (Thump.) Mom? Did you hear me? I disapprove.” (Thump.) Repeat till Mom stops the stamping…
