This ought to cool your jets–patient dog, frisky bunny, cuteness all over the place. And for those of us who endured 90-degree-plus temperatures today, the bunny in the snow should be rather refreshing.
I’ve always wanted a bunny, never had one. They seem to have a lot of personality.
Everybody knows cats love cardboard boxes. They also love to fight over them. But did you know dogs, bunnies, and goats love cardboard boxes, too? Especially when they’re full of shipping peanuts! (Not something I would ever allow!) Who needs expensive pet toys? Just put an empty box on the floor and watch the fun.
“There’s something you don’t see every day, Chauncey.”
“What’s that, Edgar?”
“Rabbit chasing a dog.”
And my question is, what does he do with it if he catches it?
P.S.–Can anyone remember what cartoon occasionally featured the above-cited Chauncey and Edgar? I could look it up, but first I want to sift my memory.
I don’t know what the bunny was doing in the bathtub in the first place, and I don’t think he did, either. By a happy accident, he discovered the pleasure of taking a shower–demonstrating an ability to adapt almost instantly to an unexpected situation. It takes a lot of intelligence to do that. History’s full of generals who couldn’t do it.
Once again I selected the nice critter video, loaded it, and then forgot to post it. I think there may be too many things going on in my life, just now.
Anyway, here it is–cuddly baby bunnies, offered as sanity medicine. Notice they fit into all kinds of unusual containers.
These little short-eared bunnies are awfully cute. Are their ears short because they’re so young, or is that a special breed of rabbit? Anyhow, someone has been kind enough to set up a sort of obstacle course for them, and they’re having a blast. I wish I’d thought to do that for my rats when I had them.
All right, that last video was awfully short, so here’s another one. Check out these two indoor bunnies playing in the snow. What exactly are they digging for? Anybody here know how a rabbit’s mind works?
They’ve got personality, they’ve got charm–and I’m always amazed to see videos of bunnies and dogs playing together.
We had a whole bunch of wild baby bunnies around here once, and I have a found memory of standing still, one night, while they chased each other round and round me.
I’ve never had bunnies of my own, but I’ve often seen the wild cottontails gamboling around like this. Makes you happy just to watch them. Never say no to a bit of joie de vivre. I am told that using a French expression from time to time is the mark of someone who knows a couple of French expressions.
These unlikely animal friendships seem less unlikely by the day. Cats and rabbits–who would’ve thought it? And I’m sure this is the first time I’ve ever seen a bunny chasing a cat–all in fun, though.
