Dusty and bubbles…

Over Thanksgiving weekend I was able to take a few pictures of Dusty, and Bubbles. They are now the size of a small dog. I’m not talking about a Yorkies or a Chihuahuas, I’m talking a Bichons or a small Cocker Spaniel. These bunnies are big!
What about their ears?

While their noses are soft and warm, their ears are soft and velvety.  So soft they make you want to curl up with them, and take a nap.  No wonder kids love to have a stuffed bunny to hold on to when they are little!

Now that the  bunnies are bigger, they aren’t so cuddly, but they do stop, and let you scratch behind their ears. When you scratch  their ears,  they close their eyes, and you can almost hear them purr.

While dusty is about three or four months older, Bubbles is only six months old, and will grow another six to ten months before she is full-grown.  she still isn’t quite as big as dusty though.
I have actually seen Giant Flemish Rabbits that were forty or more pounds. Can you even imagine?

Thank you for hopping by to check Dusty and Bubbles out,  see you soon…..

Crush Was A Big Success

Thanksgiving Day the family gathered not just in gratitude for being able to pull the entire family together (it’s rare we can get the entire family together at one time), but grateful for out health, jobs, and good fortune.  We have three performers in our family, and with the schedules of all the rest of us, it’s just difficult sometimes.

On this day we were also checking our Sages new, little geckos.  Crush, the gecko without a tail seemed like he was doing pretty well. He was all over the terrarium, and very kicked back.  While Megan seemed to want to hide and sleep.  So that’s what we let her do.  Nobody wants two geckos without tails!

After all the kids Oooed, and Aaaad at them both, Sage took Crush out of his glass home so we could see him better.

Crush and Megan are Orange Crested Geckos, and this species looses their tails when they are stressed.  Unfortunately they never grow them back like other species do.

Dusty’s Back!

Since the weather has been cooling off, and just before we are all gearing up for Thanksgiving, I thought we should visit Dusty. These two  pictures  are rare.  Bunnies never slow down long enough to get a good picture of them.

My daughter, and I have been trying to figure out what to get Sage, my granddaughter for Christmas. You would think it would be easy with all the girley stuff, be not this year!
After I received the emails with the pictures,  we were discussing how cute they were, and my daughter  came up with the idea to haveone of these pictures made into a puzzle. Sage will love that since, Dusty is her bunny.

So I ask my readers which picture do you think is better for a puzzle?  Top Picture, or bottom?

Dusty is growing big and strong, but out where he lives, it gets a little too cold to spend day, and night outside, so he gets to come in the house with Bubbles.  I’m sure only in California do we bring our animals into our homes to give them shelter, but yep they do come in during bad weather!  And they both use the litter box diligently.  Neither of them have ever had any accidents.

Dusty spends his days hippity hopping around his large green yard, chasing Bubbles now and then, and on a good day is allowed in the house at night.  All is well in the bunny world, and they are both growing, and growing getting bigger, and bigger.  Soon they will be the size of Harvey the Rabbit from the 1950’s movie “Harvey,” with James Stewart.

Thank you for taking time to hop by and see whats going on with Dusty, see you next time……
