Up to No Good

I've got a couple updates.

First, a day I have long feared would come.. Umbra has learned to open doors. Usually, if I'm going to leave the room for a moment, I don't bother to close the door all the way, instead leaving it cracked. This hasn't ever been an issue until just this week. Before apparently having a bunny epiphany, Umbra would just claw at the door to no avail (as it swings into the room, her efforts would only close the door more). Finally, however, it has dawned upon her that if she seizes the door with her teeth she can pull it back enough to get her nose in, and then freedom is within reach.. or at least yummy treats provided by the silly human pleading for her to get out from scary human's (my mom) room. It's win-win if you think about it... at least if you are one sneaky bunny with an appetite for adventure and homemade banana/timothy treats.

Second, I have decided to share a video of Umbra being herself and getting into things.

At first, I didn't have a problem with Umbra eating from the bag... however the next day I discovered that Umbra reminded me that rabbits really enjoy using the bathroom while they eat.. maybe she thought it was okay because she was sitting on a bag of Carefresh litter... although the plastic kept it from doing its job and absorbing the mess. So now the hay and litter bags much find another home where they will not be soiled.

      looks can be deceiving... she's very naughty but I love her just the same. and yes she is the softest thing in the world. You would be hard pressed to find anything softer than a rex bunny.

    Hehehehe I think she must have had a secret visit from Speedy and had some lessons on being a little Houdini!

      I don't know, maybe it's Speedy who is the student. After all, I believe Umbra is a tad bit older.

    Scout used to go under doors.. Umbra is only at stage one of the conquer the house routine.. :)

    I think all bunnies are natural ninjas, some just taunt us more openly with the fact than others.. ;)

      I'm guessing Scout was not a rabbit?

      Ninja is an accurate description of Umbra, shes even got the all black outfit for blending into shadows!

      Scout was a less than 2lb bunny. To be fair, the doors weren't carpet brushers, they had some clearance.. but she would just turn her head sideways and slither underneath. It was kinda freaky.

      Hilarious was Sage, a 5lb Dutch, trying to do the same.. *THUD!*

      well that would explain it then! What a tiny bunny, Umbra would be twice the size.

    Oh, that is hilarious... I think that all bunniness has a level of mischief to it. I LOVE IT.

    ...except when I have to pay for the damages.

    Good thing they're dang cute.

    PS - I was in complete awe watching my vet and the tech pluck Ashy away... Not even my furminator is THAT effective.
