His house had a really good spring clean and tightening of the hinges and I gave him a new ‘kneeling pad’ for the main compartment of his hutch. He has already claimed mine as his own in the garden for sitting on, makes a change from cold damp grass or hard concrete. Anyway now he has a soft base, which is good cos the 8 hours per night that he spends in his hutch, if I line it with paper he rips it all out anyway so he ends up sitting on bare wood as all the bedding material and hay gets scooted to one side.

He had a long grooming session with the brushes too, I really should make the brushing every day or every few days instead of the weekly session he seems to get. He suffers with scaly skin on his back and the brushes seem to keep it at bay.

I love him so much – he’s the most spoiled bunny ever, lots of cuddles, and treats :) His fur is like velvet! I’m so lucky that he is such a sociable rabbit. We spend time ‘chatting’ – I whisper, and he replies with a grinding sound in his mouth, more like a vibration, it’s what they do when they are happy :D Oh and I read in a book at the shops – I think it was the Rabbit Whisperer or something like that, that they love us whispering so thankfully all this time I have been bonding with him with whispers and never knew that was exactly the right thing to do! Instinct I guess :)
