         I’m trying to figure out why Bella Bunneh disapproves of the comforter? We have an old blue comforter that is more or less a “security blanket” type deal.. in that we always pull it out when one of us is sick on the sofa, got a chill and nothing else is warming us up, or we’re piled high on the floor for movie nights. It’s the “go to” blankie …even for Bella Bunneh.

        The only thing is, she doesn’t like for it to be unfolded or stretched out ..or for us to be on it or under it, in any fashion. She only likes it folded up into a squishy pillow for her comfort.. and midday naps. 

        Of course, I had it doubled over and stretched out with some sofa pillows on the floor ..while I try to recover from a horrible migraine. Bella Bunneh was in her room, lounging on her other comfy spot.. a stack of fabric for hammocks and cozy cups.. so I figured she wouldn’t mind me using it. I was wrong.

        She’s been running around me.. head butting me in not so funny places (I’m lying down, remember) ..and thumping like she’s gone mad. 

        Why? LOL!

          Hahaha. Bunnies are so picky! I have no explanation other than she’s created this rule that the blanket may not be used for people and she sticks to it.

          Or maybe she’s mad because she thinks it’s her blanket and she doesn’t like you using it 😛

                Yep, she thinks it is hers!

                You had better pee on it to let he know it is yours!

                   You guys are funny!  

                  The comforter came with the husband about 12 years ago.. he wouldn’t part with it.. and now it is definitely the blanket that the entire house gravitates toward, in special situations. It is also the blanket that most needs to be renovated with a duvet cover or a couple hundred patches.

                  I’ll refrain from peeing on it, though. It surprises me a little that Bella has only ever had one accident outside her potty box ..and I’m not certain that poppin’ a squat with the most defiant look on her face just seconds before she flooded my side of the bed.. was really an accident.

                    That said, I think if she were totally posessive of it she’d have peed on IT by now, too.
                    Of course that wasn’t an accident on your bed. Rabbitude in spades.

                    She may not like it that you aren’t feeling well. My cat years ago would nip me if I wasn’t well, or if I was crying. It disturbed him.

                      that poppin’ a squat with the most defiant look on her face

                      Great description!

                      Pam may be onto something!^ Bella is very attached to you isn’t she?
