Smooch and Kisses

It's hard to catch them together out in the open. Lucky me to catch them ... And their shadows!

Smooch is on the left and wonderful Mr. Kisseroo, the really-truly-a-cottontail, on the right. My love knows no bounds.

Just for Rosa!

I have been terribly delinquent in posting...Edward and Lois are now totally married! They are living happily together and I just need to take more photos. Here's one taken by a friend:

Lois meets Resolute

I got my goodies from Leveret's Nest!!!
Wonderful Annette from Dragon House of Yuen made these and of course I had to buy the gray one because fo the uncanny resemblance to a certain little fuzzy parasite who lives with me. And then I had to choose the floral one for company. And Annette was generous enough to add in a few little ones for our Special Bunny fundraiser auction, which is happening in Seattle on October 26, 2013. LOVE!!!

Edward the Snuggle Bun

Edward had a visitor today...Helen! Now I know what I look like when I spend my hours of snuggle time with my big boy. And there's even a video!

Beware the Loch Ness Edward.

I couldn't bear to trim this down. Even though it probably gets a bit boring for most regular people. Then again, none of my dear readers are 'regular.'

Edward is my 'foster.' Yeah, right, foster. Like anyone would be able to rip him out of my arms. Where he likes to cuddle. for hours. on the couch. So, can you blame me?

I'm a Lopaholic!

...but then, aren't we all?
And this Lopaholic spent a big chunk of time last night taking a certain new lady lop to the emergency vet to get stitches in her ear, when a certain butthead small gray lop ripped it during a bonding session. Sigh. Her ears are so long that, even if I intervene really fast, and I do (I'm in the pen with them during bonding) he is still able to get his gnashers into her gorgeous ears.

I felt terrible. While I was sitting at the vet waiting for her to get her stitches, I did more surfing re: bonding and found lots of people complaining that 'teenagers' are especially hard to bond. Well, Walter is definitely a teenager. At any rate, bonding is going to stop for now. I can't put her through it and he's clearly not ready. 

And then, of course, bunnies being bunnies, I come down to this scene this morning:
Sigh. Bunnies... I mean, really.

Blog URL changing tomorrow: I'm becoming Lopaholic.blogspot.com

Hello my darling readers! And especially my 13 fearless followers (Michelle, megan, speedy, literarybuns, aunt tina, Tab, mr_cello, kellish, brandi, the One with the Camera, Julie, Dobby, and christina!) I'm going to change the name/URL of this blog to Lopaholic.blogspot.com instead of babette-rabette. I will always remember my darling Babs, but it's hard to see her name every day as the title of the blog.

I  hope you like this new name! Easier to spell (a little) and also true (I'm a complete addict).

SO, I'm going to change it tonite and then tomorrow I'll post again. If you don't see a new post tomorrow in whatever you use as your feed reader, don't forget to come back and re-subscribe (not sure how Blogger handles URL changes like this...it may move your subscription over for you).

BINKS! And bonus photo of Edward being too large to lounge in one of his three litterboxes:

Babette :(

> Sweet Babette died today of an acute respiratory infection after a short illness. I'll miss her terribly. She was just too big and glamorous for this world I suppose. Hug your beloved furries an extra time in her honor. She was two and a half.

> Thanks for helping me make her a life full of love and admiration from all who met her.

Gymnasto-bun, unfortunately without photos or video

So I come downstairs to feed buns this morning.
Walter and Babette are on the top floor of their condo.
Walter comes down immediately to prepare to stuff his cute face.
Babs is confused.
Mom pours food in dish.
Walter digs in.
Babs finally gets it, stampedes down the ramp, and immediately straddles Walter (because she humps him when she's over-excited, aka when there's food around).
Babs leans over be-straddled Walter and gets a mouthful from the food bowl.
Babs finishes mouthful and immediately gets over-excited for another mouthful.
She simultaneously leans over Walter and starts humping him.
Gravity kicks in and "ginormous bunny butt tipping point" is reached.
Babette does a full forward somersault over Walter and lands on the other side of the food dish.
Babette does impression of a turtle on its back.
The day then resumed as normal.

Put THAT in your pipe and smoke it.
