The Bunny Story

All the bunnies are gone. When we were on our family bike ride, most of the bunnies escaped. The people taking care of them while we were gone thought that they were supposed to be out, so they never put them back in the cage. We have cats and they like fuzzy things that hop. Anyway, when we got home we found that three of them had been killed. (including the two that we were going to keep) We caught the remaining bunnies and recaged them. The next day another one got out and before we could get it, the cat did. So we were down to four fuzz balls. And those ones were already promised to someone. Meaning we couldn't keep any. They went flop eared. So they all look dopey.On Wednesday Samantha and mom took the three rabbits Nicky, Cappuccino, and Buggsy (who was the bunny hopping round in our yard, we caught her) to the auction. They made eight dollars.
Now we are back down to our original two, Mordecai and Naomi.

Bunny Update

They got bigger.
And cuter.
And fuzzier.
We are getting rid of nine of them and keeping two. The little white one is Alice and she is my favorite, we're keeping her.

Baby Bunnies

The bunnies have grown so fast, one day they were blind and naked and the next day they have hair and their eyes are open. And they hop... a lot. I accidentally dropped one because I thought it was asleep and then it launched itself right out of my hands. It got stuck in my wheel and it took us a few moments to get him out, thankfully he was completely uninjured.
I still can't get over their cute little ears.

This is Alice. We had to name them because that's just what we do. There is Templeton, Genna, Spartacus, Fievel, Basile and the last two aren't named yet. Any ideas (we don't know which ones are girls or boy yet so any name will work)?

The Bunny Incident

Many weeks ago the bunnies started showing up at our house. At first there was only one but then it multiplied into two. The neighbor started to complain that they were eating her plants. Awhile later one of the bunnies found its way into our barn and we captured it and put it in a cage. We named it Nicodemus. Then the neighbor captured the other one. She came over and asked Stephen (because he was the only one home at the time) if it was ours. He said "No". She asked if we would mind if she took it down to the cemetery and let it go or if we wanted it. He said we wouldn't mind and we did not want it. When we got home the new bunny was in the same cage with Nicodemus. Stephen had no idea how it got there because he had told the neighbor that we did not want it. Obviously she didn't listen to him. Well, it turned out the Nicodemus was a girl so we changed her name to Nickie. And cappuccino ( the other bunny) was a boy. If you can't see the problem here consider the saying "they breed like rabbits". Anyway, several days ago Nickie gave birth to nine baby bunnies. Surprise! And now there is a third rabbit hopping around our yard, and we do not want it.
