Katniss and Rue

16/01/2025

They’ve been really good today, they even ate their pellets together with no issues. Then they went and spoiled it all by fighting over their dried plantain.🙄🐰

Finally, Oscar is getting to eat his pellets in peace ( Henry is on the upper level eating his) ❤️

Ape: That’s it, no more morning pellets for the pair of you. I just don’t have time to deal with all the drama- the grunting and chasing is getting ridiculous…

You can have your herb salad in the morning, and then you’ll have to wait until I’ve finished work, and have time to supervise you eating your pellets, and stop all the nonsense. Okay Henry?

Henry: can I have da apple twig pls? *looks all innocent* 😇🐰

This is the closest we ever get to ‘snuggling’! 🤣🐰🥰🐰

I don’t know what’s been going on with Oscar this week, but we had a couple of days when he refused his morning pellets. Eating everything else okay, including hay and his treats and forage.

From past experience with Katniss, this is usually an indication that they have tooth spurs, so I was planning on getting him booked in at the vets…

Then of course he goes back to normal, eating everything in sight and run around and binkying as usual. Bunnies, huh! 🙄

It’s super cold tonight, so let’s get all our blankehs out to snuggle on. Or rearrange 🤣🐰

There’s always drama going on with these two! 🙄

I had to put a litter box up here for Henry, because Oscar was being a little devil and was chasing him away from the ones they share. Not all Oscar’s fault though- cause Henry has been winding him up. When I gave them their treats, Henry half ate his and then dropped it and went after Oscar’s! ☹️

So naughty, the pair of them. This all happened yesterday, but luckily they do seem to have settled down a bit today. 🤞🏻

Da cleaning ape has only gone and deep cleaned our shed today, so we’re trying to get it back to it’s normal messy state again. There is hay and p**p 💩 everywhere now. Hooray! 🐰🤣

I’m here to tell you that changing the shed setup worked out well. No bunny thumped me, boxed me or bit me! 😅

However- dear little Oscar just felt that he needed to make a small adjustment to the size of the holes on their box. Now it is perfect 👌 😅🐰

So sad 😢

Something to think about today!

The silent suffering of bunnies and guinea pigs 😔

When I joined this family three years ago, I was allowed to jump around in an open enclosure in the summer and was even brought into the house more often.

I was given fresh food every day, and clean water. Also, my hutch was regularly cleaned.

Having to live alone in my hutch was always lonely and boring, when I was with my mother and siblings there was always something going on but the child of the family would come a pet me.

Now the child is 12 and thinks I’m boring.

He would rather have a now ... 🐕
So I've been sitting in my dirty hutch all alone for ages now!

If I'm lucky, once a day the door opens and someone remembers to give me
pellets where I prefer greens a lot.

Sometimes I get a carrot or some dandelion it makes me really happy.

My water is often inedible because it is not changed for days on end.

I'm drowning in my own dirt so to speak!

In the winter I freeze because no one bothers to carry my cage into the basement like they used to.

Besides, I am often very thirsty, but my water bottle is frozen and my people don't see it.

When it rains I sit in the back corner of my hutch because no one cares that it leeks when it rains.

Then I squat in the wet mess and feel terribly uncomfortable.

I'm having diarrhea, my butt is covered with poo.

My people think this is disgusting but so do I !

I have a stomach ache and feet have sores on them from having to sit on wet filth because my hutch is rarely cleaned these days. A vet could surely help but that costs money .
But I'm just a 🐇

In the summer, it’s unbearably hot in here but I look outside and see a beautiful garden, with juicy grass, and there are sooo many delicious daisies and wish I could enjoy all this.

I feel unwell and my joins are so stiff from having to sit in a small space all the time, I long to be able to run and jump and play.

Again and again I envy the that sneak through the yard and don't have to sit in a small jail.

Then I picture myself jumping across the meadow and playing with other rabbits.

I sometimes just wish I could vent like this I can barely move in my dirty prison 😔

Unfortunately, I can't make my people understand how sad I am. They don't understand my languages and they don't see my tears!

What did I do to be treated this way!?

I was always sweet, always let everything go over me, never scratched or even bit!

Why don't they at least take me to an animal shelter, maybe I'd find a friend and a nicer family

I don't know how much longer I can handle this long lonely uncomfortable existence and I am becoming very depressed.

I could still live for many many more years!

I hope for a life after death, a life without people locking me in a cage, a life with huge meadows, and many peers.

With fresh green food and clean drinking water!

And so I continue to suffer silently because people have lost interest in me and don’t understand my language and don't see my tears!

So I have to pass away first to be able to live 😔

Don't look away and give us a voice! A hutch is never enough!

Henry and Oscar tucking into their Christmas forage, after Oscar causes a bit of drama this morning by refusing to eat! They do love to scare us… 😩
