Bugz was in a good mood, he was running across the room and doing a binky then a turn and run and binky then a turn and run and binky this was working well for him until I worked out he was getitng closer and closer to the wall and then… yup you guessed it we binkyed right into the wall!![]()
Poor baby, he is now sulking in his litter tray!
lol Monkey does that alot, smashes her face into all sorts of things. Bunnies are silly ![]()
hahahahaha
Freya does that too, she only sulks when I laugh at her which is nearly every time.
Lols! Both Velvet and Ruby have done that. =P Velvet sits and sulks and Ruby is just too happy to sulk for long though. We moved her to a bigger cage today and she’s been binkying around it /all/ day! She has yet to run into the sides but I’m sure she will eventually. Silly bun!
Bunners did a header into the sliding glass door last night. THUNK! I was worried he hurt himself, but at the same time, his reaction, “uh excuse, can’t you see I’m playing here?” was hilarious!
Poor bunnies. I would laugh too.
Ruby does popcorn binkies. She was under her house and did one and hit her head. lol she hasn’t done one since. ![]()
Cotton doesn’t run into stuff unless he is in a terrified panic mode
I keep waiting for Freya to do the same thing Ruby did. She binkies in her condo often enough that I’m just watching for the time she does it underneath her second level.
well Bugz loves the new carpet that I got him it gives him great lift! Only issue is he goes running across the room off the carpet and hits the wood floor, twice he ran into the wall head first while trying to scramble to re gain his footing. Then last night he went hell for leather hit the wood floor with all four feet slide slide slide turn and his bum just knocked the wall. I thought that was strange then it did it again and again and again and then he was off the carpet trying to slide right across the room ?????? Strange bunny!
Haha, oh I’m so glad all of you have these goofball stories. Chubs has never done this but Comet has binkied into the wall once. He also is afraid of his own shadow every once in a while (or a floor creak, or a fotostep, or a phone ringing, or a voice he doesn’t know, you name it) and will take off in a fear mode and run himself into the wall. I was worried at first about it at first but he is spooking less often so this only happens once in a while and he has never seem hurt in any way… I just chalk it up to him being a total goof.
It could be that Bugz also loves to slide. He might be thinking, “This is neat! I’m not moving and yet the rest of the world is going by!” Most of the time I find that rabbits tend to give you the look of “why did you put that wall there?” It seems that anything that isn’t where it is (or isn’t) suppose to be is our fault.
I really think he loves to slide! I am waiting for him to do a paw pump at the end of a big slide! It does warm my heart. Last night I was on the floor with him and he was rubbing himself all over my legs and would do a binky come back rub and binky again. I know that some people have told me to see a bunny binky is a great thing and if you are lucky you will get one a week well last night I counted 7! It makes me believe 110% that I did the right thing by adopting him, he is really happy and settled and loving “his” space!
Does he have one of those big lumps on his head now like they do in the cartoons? ^_^ j/k
Binky-binky-whee! Binky-binky-whee! Binky-binky-OW! >_< Poor Bugz!
I hate stuff that is painfully funny, but yeah, you can’t help but get a giggle off something like that. Then I sit down and snuggle bunny and cry.
My cats are better at it though. They’ll come shooting through the house at odd hours of the night and hit the linoleum and SCREEECHWHAM! Into a cabinet or some such obstruction. 0_o Then an head shake and all’s well, off they go again!
haha! What a funny fella!
But are you telling me you never put socks on and do slides on your wood floors?! I was thinking maybe you could stack a foam mat or thick cardboard against the wall so it’d soften the impact a little. Not that he seems to care. Maybe a little leather padded helmet?
Hahahahah too funny!!!
Kokanee, my bridge bunny, used to love to jump on my coffee table and ‘surf’ on my homework -thought herself to be very impressive ![]()
Hunny came into my computer room and bonked her head on my leg and then did a binky and ran away like she wanted me to chase her
I think it was LizzieKnittyBun who said her Remy comes up on the bed every day to wake them for pets, then zooms off again at high speed. But one day his towel (which acted like brakes) wasn’t on the end of the bed-or the box there-and he slid right off the other side? xD
Too true! These bunnies need some crash dummy gear! The worry that they’re going to hurt themselves would have me working something out with some suede and plushie stuffing or whatnot…lol! (I can just see the little bun in his crash helmet, what a picture!)
The first day I got Raymond out of the shelter, Brian and I decided to let him out to run around the house – and he started running across the living room towards the linoleum kitchen, and then as soon as he hit the kitchen he would just go sliding across the floor, and usually end up on his back, and crash into the dishwasher sideways! The funniest thing was that he did it like 10 times in a row ![]()
