Steve built a great little ramp and lounge box above Jack and Viv’s hidey house. For a long while they wouldn’t go up there, but lately I’ve been seeing Vivian head up there and now she likes to lounge up there. Jack will go up there sometimes to search for her and shoo her out so she can be with him down on the ground (he is afraid of heights and doesn’t like staying up there)
So it’s Viv’s new “girl time” space. Jack is getting less bossy about her and lets her have more time up there. I think he likes it better that at least she stays with him in the same room as she RARELY goes back to her hidout in the other room now..
Anyway – here’s her Window Seat: ’

I need to get a wider shot to show the whole contraption, but you can at least see the ramp up to the Lounge Box Window Seat.

Sweet pictures! Every girl needs ‘girl time’ space. My rabbits love sitting up on some drawers that sit up against a window. It can be a bit discouraging when you give them something new and they ignore it – but they do seem to like to discover it in their own time. I found this with a play house I got and everyone assured me they would warm to it.
OMG, that is so sweet! ^_^ See now that’s what Mimzy needs…not just the window seat, but the nice window that looks out on a lovely lawn and pretty flowers.
(and plenty of sunlight)
Her coloring is so similar to his too…with the exception of her ears not lopping…but I can forgive her that.
Did Steve do this spur of the moment? Or was it on his ‘honeydew’ list? ![]()
Monkey used to love looking out the sliding glass door, til we took it away from her after she poked her eyes on the blinds, silly bun. Maybe once we have the 2 bonded, I’ll see about wrapping the blinds or something so she cant smack her eyes into them like before. We never close them anyway, and I just bought some fleece…hmm
Oh, and tell Jack to add me on friends on facebook already BB ![]()
She’s so pretty! I’m glad she has her own space – girl power!
That’s lovely.
I have been thinking that Sammy might use a ramp, because she avoids heights so much that she won’t even jump up onto my low couch. She’s twice as big as she was when we moved in, and periscopes, but just won’t do it. She’s probably like Jack and won’t want to go up a ramp and stay, but maybe it’s worth a try. Vivian is a lucky girl.
I love window seats – I can see why Vivian likes it there.
My husband does not get window seats – it must be a girl thing!
sweet! yay for girl power =)
So nice! I’ve always wanted a house with a window seat. We had this one adaptation thing for the cats, and one of them just loved it. I am sure that Eclipse would love something similar if I had nice widows *looks at my ancient window with shifty ninja eyes*
i love it!!
Queen of the window sill
lol!
Thanks everyone. It’s nice to see her finally enjoying it. Jack is such a pill when he does go up there – he shoos her down, then stay up there for a minute to dig a hole in her bed, eat her snack greens,and chin mark everything before he heads down. He’s like the mean kid in the sandbox. (I’ll try to get it on video – though he doesn’t do it as much anymore)
MarkBun – HAHAHHAHHAHHA! That cracked me up. Funny!!
Monkeybun – I just had Jack update his friends list so hopefully he added you!
You must have another name there. ??
Mimzmum – Building that was on Steve’s Honeydew list. But anything that requires creating and building he loves to do, so it didn’t take much time to from the Start Line (asking) to the Finish Line.
So cute!!!! That’s a great idea!
Leroy loves looking out the window and I do have a window seat – i should work something out for him like that so that Leroy doesn’t have to climb up my furniture to get up there ![]()
I love that! It’s great that she has an area to get some privacy… Great job Steve!
Yep, I got added thank Jack for me
Baby Monkey is my profile pic ![]()
great…. now Cotton is going to want a window seat with a ramp. LOL.
That is just too cute- and Vivian is so smart to figure out Jack’s dislikes- linoleum and heights. She has him all figured out- as she of course should!
