            Ah, congrats! That is wonderful news. I love how Buns are so intelligent, so many people have NO clue! It’s always good to know how people get on, it’s so encouranging

            Well done!

              that’s great.

              Bunnies learn lots of words, cues, voice inflections, and especially routines. they really are very smart.

                  ooo…Congrats! I’m so jealous!
                  I can’t wait till Lucy gets this, I think we are getting close.

                  This is like the single most important thing I have been working on with her. Trying to herd her to her pen every night is starting to get frustrating.

                  It really gives you a moment of self reflection when you realize you have just spent 20 minutes crawling around on all fours under the dining room table pleading to a rabbit to please please “go home” so that mommy can go to bed. hahaha.

                  The things we do for love!

                    Zeus used to be like this… then he realized if he went into his cage like I asked, there would be pellets and greens waiting for him.  He decided he was okay with going into his cage, then.

                      Mine are such food hogs 😉

                      If Pringles and Toby are out and about, all I have to do is start grating a carrot and they run like crazy back to the condo and sit next to their dish. I guess it’s lucky they haven’t come in the kitchen and begged for a bite because I would have given it to them and not had this trigger to fall back on. They sit there or hang over the edge just licking their lips like crazy waiting for me.

                      Lola and Daisy do the same if they hear a pellet or two hit their condo floor no matter where they are in the house.
