Back to normal

More visitors so more work for me on the entertainment front. It's all a bit much for this ageing rabbit especially the lack of respect the uninitiated can show regarding the preferences of house bunnies. One of the first-time guests actually tried to pick me up but I niftily shot through his fingers before he had the chance to haul me into the air. The nerve of it but as you know I never hold grudges so I allowed him to give me a decent sized piece of carrot after a minute or two to let him know he was forgiven. That's one thing he learned. Rabbits are ground creatures and hate being waved around like the Union flag. I expect he thought my beautiful lop ears were wings and was trying to get me airborne. Funny things humans and this particular one was from Norway. They probably don't have rabbits in those foreign countries.
Things are back to normal now and my bedroom is free. As far as everybody else is concerned I've got 'em nicely pinned down.

What a fabulous cushion you found to sit on Harvey.
But more to the point - why don't my ears sit as yours do.

Best green cabbage leaves to you

It is odd how humans always want to pick up animals and think rabbits will enjoy being four feet up in the air, when their nbormal lives are on or below ground. Even cats, that climb trees, are not necessarily anxious to be picked up, confined in arms, and cuddled.
