              Is that 10ft long, or 10ft high? Long-jump or high-jump?

                    We have a dividing barrier up in our bunny playroom so we can have both bunnies out there at the same time. My girlfriend’s parents are in town, and asked if the bunnies were able to jump over the barrier. I told them that it might be possible, but I’ve never seen them jump that high.

                    Not even half an hour later, as I’m in the other room cleaning their litterboxes, I look over and see Digby clear the barrier with no problem   Apparently he just didn’t want to jump over until he heard us saying he couldn’t.  I’ve added another 12 inches to the barrier  – I just hope that’s enough.

                      What a brat.  Jumping the barrier. I think that was a long jump but the book didn’t specify.  Personally I think long jump.

                      Cotton used to jump to almost tthe top of the highest xpen there is. Then climb to the top survey his environment to the safe place to jump off.  He would decide to land on the table next to the xpen and he would get out that way.  He doesn’t do that anymore and he doesn’t jump the baby gate either.   sometimes I wonder though if he got a mind to look out.

                      Hey your bun would be a good candidate for rabbit agility courses.  Just cleared the barrier.  Brats. All of them brats.

                          had the buns into the vet and it looks like I have 2 girls. they are dong well and growing. snowflake is 2 lbs 3 oz and butterscotch even though she eats like a little pib is only 1lb 3 oz but she sure is active. Butterscoth and Snowflake are running around and they jump and I think it is called do binkies they seem to really enjoy exercise time. They are so adorable and so much fun! Thye will be getting old enough to be spayed and I just wonder if it better to wait until they are 6 months? and what can I expect? will they be ill for a few days? the vet office is down the street from where I work maybe I just have them stay there so I can see them during the day. I am just a little worried but I know it has to be done
