Thursday is for bunnies sharing...


...a bowl of salad with some fresh fennel!!

The bunnies have met last week after Audrey had time to refresh a bit after the long intercontinental flight. She didn't seem particularly hungry at first, but when I served the salad there was not much talking going on between buns, everyone tucked in with gusto!

More on Audrey soon!

Tock-tober with Audrey!

Hi everyone, I would like to announce the safe arrival of Audrey in Miss Eve&Neville's household!
Please excuse the lack of pictures and the small post - it is hard to blog when one's on the road... pictures and more on the encounter of the bunnies with Audrey will follow soon!

PS:Special thanks to Cadbury's mum, who provided Audrey with some proviants for the trip (a tub of dried banana slices and a large bag of craisins), plus some literature to entertain bun on the trip, and to share with us :)

Tock-tober in Nottinghamshire

We celebrate Tock-tober too...here in a double whammy, black and shiny and white with ginger and brown/tan spots...tail is coloured too (see what I mean if I say Neville is Orlando's lost brother separated at birth?).

Bunnies' benefit raffle - last hours!

I just found out following a link about this bunny raffle organized by Bridget in favour of the Heartland Rabbit Rescue. Bridget is a very talented jewelry artist (here you can see the goodies in her etsy shop) but also a bunny slave like most of us here. Time is running away, and tonight at midnight the raffle will be over, so...would you like to get a ticket or more for the bunnies?

I will be back later with a bunny memory post. And maybe some knitting.

Hoppy greetings to everyone!


We're back!!

Neville and Miss Eve are well (Miss Eve fully recovered from her respiratory infection, and we still do not know what it was, as the culture results aren't back from the lab yet...!), human Mum is well too (but overworked - hey, someone has to pay for bunny salads!) and Mr D did recover well from chickenpox - good thing bunnies can't get it!

We've missed lots and we better start reading the blogs...and later there will be bunny binkies here for everyone ;-)

Disapproval oncoming

Thank you all for the good vibes to Miss Eve and the encouragement...you are all wonderful!
Jo called me when I was about to leave to bring my visiting friend to the airport, to tell me that Miss Eve has passed the sedation with flying colours, no trouble whatsoever. They used the lightest sedation dosis and it worked perfectly. During the procedures, heart and vital signs were monitored and everything was well. The rasping sounds were heard occasionally, when she was breathing in, but otherwise all went well.
The blood work was fine, no anomalies found there, and the x-rays did not show more than a darkening of the lower section of the lungs, no masses shown (phew! so no tumors!), and they shaved her belly (oh! can you hear the disapproval??) to take a scan, to see if the x-rays had missed anything. This was fine, no issues with kidneys or other organs, so there :)
Diagnosis seems to be a bronchitis of some sort, although there is no discharge from the lungs and never had been. She pointed out that it could have been a consequence from pasturella, however she never showed sympthoms...oh these bunnies!
So... we're picking her up today in 3 hrs time after having spent a night at their bunny hotel as I was unable to collect her before their closing time, as I was still miles away from home and Mr D managed to get caught in a traffic jam on his way to the vet and was LATE!!
I shall post more once I am back from the vets with Miss Eve, and have also had a chance to take a look at the x-rays and scan pics...
