[Gpdd] MISC-OFF TOPIC- bunnies

Hi  Most rabbits wont allow them selves to be picked up, its just a fact of 
life and a huge disappointment to many who buy them as pets for their kids. 
But in fact bunny spines are very fragile, so your best bet is not to try 
again. You will need to develop a strategy to get her into a carrier for vet 
visits, maybe choose one she can get to from her cage, and put her fav treat 
into the carrier as an inducement, or leave it out allot when she has floor 
time. Buns do need a couple hours of run time daily then they have to be 
herded back home or a treat used.  But watching a bunny outside her cage is 
amazing, after you completely bunny proof her running space. That often 
means covering all wires, no houseplants, and making sure she has a litter 
box just like the one she uses in her cage so your carpets wont get ruined. 
People use their hallways allot as the buns run so fast back and forth doing 
their binkies, they actually run up the side of a wall a few inches and 
shove off again. BTW carpet chewing is extremely common. Buns are always 
challenging but rewarding because of their intelligence and deep attachment 
to you.  Check out etherbun.   Sandy and Sammy
