A bit of a warning about candles and bunnies: not all animals are afraid of fire. Ronnie got a little too close to the candle and singed a few whiskers on the flame. No damage was done (except a few shortened whiskers) because I pulled the candle away as soon as he came up to it. Ronnie didn't even know that anything had gone wrong! We won't be lighting any more candles in front of the bunnies.Sleepy Bunnyspekkioxlv2008-06-13 | Billy is quite the lazy bunny these daysBunny Got Movesspekkioxlv2008-04-18 | Bunnies have their own way of dancing.

Here are the lyrics:
I was once out strolling one very hot summer's day
When I thought I'd lay myself down to rest in a big field of tall grass.
I lay there in the sun and felt it caressing my face.
As I fell asleep and dreamed.
I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie,
And that I was the star of the movie.
This really blew my mind,
The fact that me, an overfed, long-haired, leaping gnome,
Should be the star of a Hollywood movie...
But there I was....
I was taken to a place, the hall of the mountain kings.
I stood high upon a mountain top, naked to the world,
In front of every kind of girl...
There was long ones, tall ones, short ones, brown ones,
Black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones...
Out of the middle, came a lady,
She whispered in my ear something crazy,
She said...

He seemed to enjoy the pile of hay and wrapping paper more than his birthday present ;) Don't worry, he didn't eat the cupcake!A Friendly Bunnyspekkioxlv2008-02-01 | Ronnie is always happy to see me. He runs up to me like a puppy every time I enter the room, and I don't even bring him any treats!

Well, there are some bunnies out there that just don't like to be touched. So for all the bunnies who value their personal space, here's Billy...

This footage was taken between 2 and 3 months after he was neutered. His overall progress is:
1 week -- stopped spraying urine
2 weeks -- started using litter box
2 months -- humping behavior significantly reduced
He still runs circles around people, but I think this is his way of saying, "Happy to see you!"The REAL Energizer Bunnyspekkioxlv2007-11-05 | Netherland Dwarf rabbits have big personalities and a lot of energy.Bunny Rabbit - Six weeks after neuterspekkioxlv2007-10-18 | Ronnie was neutered on 9/5/07.

Since there have been a few comments about improper handling of the bunny, I feel this is something I need to address. The way Ronnie was picked up and carried in this video is NOT the correct way to handle a rabbit. Rabbits should be held close and have their back legs/bum supported at the same time. When I filmed this video, Ronnie had a sprained ankle and we were hesitant to support his back legs for fear of hurting him. We would not normally carry a bunny this way. I probably shouldn't have included that segment in the finished video, but I didn't think much of it at the time.
We wanted to give Ronnie a chance to run around the apartment while Billy was napping. Billy woke up and was very angry to find Ronnie in his territory!Billy Bunny Goes Outsidespekkioxlv2007-09-20 | This is Billy's first time outside.
