  This just happened and I thought it was amusing so I’d share. I was in the living room and Wick comes over to lick me intermittently. I jostle his head fur a few times, then he goes in for a harder nip (he thought he hit my pant leg, but he actually nipped my skin. So not intentionally hard.). I retracted from being off guard and decide I need to evaluate this need for attention since it was unusual. I turn off the TV and follow him into the bedroom where I find him sitting on the dresser, just sitting there (not loaved), staring at me. He only goes on the dresser to sleep, so as a small experiment I get into bed like I’m going to sleep and he commences relaxation and grooming, then loaves down to sleep.
  
  Summary: Wick was coaxing me to go to sleep because he was ready to. What a bossy rabbit I have… I’m now in bed, staring at him asleep on my dresser.
  
  Here’s a video showing how his dresser spot overlooks the bed. Silly. http://www.instagram.com/p/BbGUMPzFf9R/
  
  Feel free to share any recent rabbit stories!

  So that’s what that was all about on IG. What a cutie!
  Chewie and I usually go to sleep quite early, but if he’s sleepy before I am, he’ll run to the bedroom and do zoomies on the bed so I can hear him, then stretch out fully at the foot of the mattress and pointedly wait for me. Guilt tripping of some sort?

  That’s completely adorable. I can’t believe he did that. My bunny is the opposite: she wants to party with me around midnight. I’m like, “nooooo, I have a joooooob.”

  My Buttercup hates it if I nap during the day. If I kip on the sofa (at the old house) she’ll glare at me. Apparently only she and Peanut are allowed to sleep during the day lol

  Lol these are all cute stories stitch every morning comes out and goes to the fridge and waits for his greens and as soon as I open the container he runs to his feeding spot and stands up to be hand fed…spoiled… and then after that goes to my back door to go out on the porch bc hay in the morning is so much better on the porch than anywhere else. Then every night he will go in and out the bathroom until I go in to take a bath so he can sit next to the tub on his seat JUST so he can pee in the tub when I’m done………..then he goes to his bed and grooms for sleep lol
