Eczema? Me too.

All I see is a minus sign in a circle in a big grey background.

Maybe that is a picture for his pet electron

 

[vogue]

She was asleep when this was taken...

 

[Adders]

How cute...she still sucks her thumb.

 

[Shri]

I have mostly called my rabbit fatty even though I gave him another name. I think I'll just stick to fatty tbh.

 

[Shri]

Will post pics of fatty later. Food preference:

Sun dried bread bits
Cherry tomatoes
Purple lettuce

Will eat if starving:

Roquettes
Baby spinach

Won't eat:

Cucumbers

 

[Shri]

I am getting him an apple and a carrot for the week. Feed him bits.

 

[Shri]

I forgot. I got a ricotta cake for mywself tho.

 

[Shri]

Also, gave him a piece of olive the other day and he got diarrhea. So add that to the no list I guess.

 

[SillyCowCorner1]

Olives can be a little too strong for the rabbit's stomach.

 

[Daemon]

Shri, I hope you're giving him hay?

 

[Shri]

There is a lawn right outside my balcony and I cut some grass for him with my scissors every other day. Is that good enough?

 

[Daemon]

No idea about the cut grass. Should be fine but if he's not eating it then it's a problem.

 

[Shri]

He eats it. I just take away the pellet bowl until he eats his ****ing grass. Went out and bought some hay just now though because the ****ers have trimmed the lawn sometime yesterday. Also got him apples and carrots.

Does anyone else feel weird about the concept of pets? Like is it really normal that I have an animal which could eat me if she thought I'd be tasty just walking around the house? Obviously, it's good for all concerned if the pet has a good owner, but it just strikes me as quirky.

Surely it’s only Shri who’d get a pet lion though?

Is Shri sure it's a rabbit he has, or could it be a lion cub he has, waiting for its chance to strike

 

[Shri]

My rabbit's started licking my hands whenever I feed it. Over the past week, I have left his cage open all the time and he zooms around in the balcony freely and gets treats like apple slices, lettuce and carrot slices apart from pellets and hay (from yesterday). He doesn't get freaked out as much as he used to when I reach into his enclosure to get him out to clean it.
