Ickus has not fully recovered from his head tilt yet, but he has made great progress. He is oriented enough to hop around the front yard while Dad shoots a few free throws. Even though he is handicapped his spirit is undeterred. He was just as happy as ever to be out in the sunshine and eating the grass.

Super scowl
We recently had to shuffle the bunnies around. Almost everyone got a new cage, and Kiwi is making it plain just how she feels about change.

New rabbits #3 and 4: Lionheads
These girls are litter mates, but look how different they are in fluffiness!
They are good-tempered but shy.

New bunny #2
One of the big girls who visited us a few weeks ago is now part of our herd as well. Here you can see her playing with our Rumble.
She is super protective of her own hutch but she is nice if you take her to another space.

An addition to the herd
We had a tragic death in the family yesterday. He left behind six rabbits, which we have brought home with us. My favorite is this handsome young Dutch boy named Frans.

Rabbit fusion
Vanna has always loved snuggling -- not with humans, but with other rabbits. It's as if she has a bunny magnet in her head. It makes for many adorable moments each day.

More bubbles next time
If you have ever had to give a rabbit a bath before, you will know that it is only slightly less treacherous to bathe a cat!
Not so with Rumble though. Even though he is hands down the worst in personal hygiene, he is a very good boy at bathtime. Also, he naturally dries in record time.
He doesn't get a bath often, but when they do come along, it is not a nightmare for either the bather or the bathee.

The Best Friends
I caught Magnus and Tumble snuggling this afternoon.
We have different names for each group of roommates:
Ickus, JD, and Mochi: the Three Amigos
Kiwi and her daughter Nani: the Kiwis
Tumble and Magnus: The BFFs

Mochi poses
Mochi got to play around in the living room while we watched tv. He stopped zipping around for just enough time to strike a pose for the camera.
