We are moving

Since we are modern bunnies we prefer to blog from our bunphone, unfortunately Blogger does not support this very well, so we are moving to Tumblr as our main blogging platform.

While this blog will remain here as a archive, it will no longer be updated.

Our webadress however will remain the same, but if you should end up here with a mistake you can find our updated blog here: [Link]

Happy New Year!

Happy new year from us to you!
Me and Frigg is entering this new year relaxing and playing with our Christmas presents: four cat tunnels that are connected together.

Frigg

This girl just moved into our bathroom.
Her name is Frigg, but she was formerly known as Blåbæret.
She's a rescue so we don't know how old she is, and she won't tell us either.

We will introduce her to Runa and Aristoteles on a neutral area soon :)

Our new hay station

Bonding: Aristoteles and Runa :3

We picked Runa up from the breeder (Myosotis) today, and tried to bond her with Aristoteles, and as you can see it was a success.

Aristoteles still thinks Runa is a little bit scary though, while Runa just wants Aristoteles' attention.

They are so cute together ^_^

PS! I will update the blog with more pictures and a little log from the bonding session tomorrow (or in a couple of days) :)

NOTE! Do not attempt to bond two rabbits without reading about it first!

Vacation

Right now I'm on vacation. We arrived yesterday after a long train trip. But this time is wasn’t that scary. First our part of the train was full of Japanese tourists, and when they saw me they all said: "Nawww!" because they thought I was so cute ^^ Then after a while we got half of the train for our selves. It was kind of cool!

Today I'm just relaxing in my room here at grandpa's. But this time it smells kind of weird here. Mum say that a little puppy lives here now, whatever that is (after what I understand it's a small version of Rammbo (grandma's dog).

Mum is also kind of excited these days. She and A tells me that I'm going to get a little sister on Sunday. But I kind of don't understand, what is a little sister? Does it mean that I'm going to get another arachnid sibling?

Birthday!

Today I became 2 years old! So now both Balto and me is two years (he had birthday the 19th of April) :D

Easter

I'm still alive, but we have been really busy lately, so mum haven't have time to help me with my blogging.

We have for example moved into a bigger apartment, so I have bigger place to run and play around ^^ It's real fun and I run around and play a lot! I used really short time to adjust to my new surroundings so mum was a little surprised, but it's the same things and mostly the same smells and I have Bamsen (mums comment: Aristoteles' toy armadillo) , and he seems really comfortable so I started to feel safe too.

I have also been to the vet some weeks ago, it was another vet, and this time I didn't have to go back to fix my teeth. Yey! But mum says we are going back when we are coming home after Easter (we are on a little vacation right now).

Powerpuff (G. rosea) molted today ^^

I found her like this when I woke up:

Laying on her back wiggling her legs to get out of her old exoskeleton:

And after a couple of hour I could spot her coming out of her old clothes:

And little by little I could see more and more:

Until she just had some of her joints in the old exoskeleton:

Just a little more...

And there! Finally!

And little by little she became darker and darker as the new exoskeleton hardened (look at the reed on her new teeth)

Her old clothes were you can easily see that she's a female

The thing you see here is the sucking stomach and oesophagus:

Unfortunately she turned over on her legs after again after sunset, so it was to dark for photographing.

And then a little video of Aristoteles, who was really displeased with the positioning of the camera:

Vet

This was a long entry (on about two pages) but blogger deleted it and I don't want to write everything again....

I was the vet yesterday and fixed my teeth, and now I have almost fully recovered after the anaesthesia. Mum was really stressed before this since I got really bad after last time, so she talked to the vet and they have given me stuff to try to help me to get well faster. I eat by myself today, which is much faster then last time were mum had to feed me for a week.

My Birthday!

I know it's really a while ago, but mum hasn't had time (or the right programs) to make the video before today

So this is something of the things that happened on the day I turned 1 year :)

The day before tomorrw

Since we were going on a trip on my actually birthday (13th of June) I got my present today!

It's a little bit scary but still a little bit fun :)



Mum will upload a video of my actual birthday some day soon (maybe not tomorrow because of the trip).

Molt x2

Both Kleopatra and Rosa (Both are Grammostola rosea RCF) has molted the night to today :)

Their cast skins was damaged so I was unable to sex them properly but it seems like they both are males but I wouldn't know for sure until their next molt.

The fun part of this is that they are siblings from the same egg sack so it was really fun that the couse to molt on the same night. This is actually not the first time they have molted almost the same, but regularly Rosa molts 2-3 days after Kleopatra. And regularly Powerpuff who is their older sister (same mum) seems to molt at the same time as those two in the spring. So it shall be exiting to hear (she lives with HugeSpider) if she has molted or is molting in some days from now ^^

Home alone

Mum is going for a field trip today and is going to be away until Friday. So a neighbour of us is going to watch me and Balto while she is away (the eight legged siblings of ours is just going to live their normal life and are not going to be watched). Well if you can say that we are watched over; he's just going to come and feed us and give us fresh water two times a day, so basically we are going to be home alone. Mum says that she don't want to leave us but that she have to, but I think it's just going to be fine (as long as the neighbour not are going to pet me or anything).

Hurra for 17. mai!

Today it's Norway's national day! And as you all can see I have dressed up with this beautiful ribbon with the colours from Norway's flag.

Mum still doesn't get why I feel some pretty with ribbons, but as I have said before I'm named after a great philosopher so I like to look nice.

And since it's Norway's national day, here's a link to the national anthem: Ja Vi Elsker

Sun, park, bus and go

Today lots have happened! Many scary but still interesting things.

After mums lecture in Zoology today she and commoncroc (a fellow student of mum) came, and mum put my harness on me. Then she (followed by commoncroc) caried me outside. We walked longer to the spot were mum have carried me before when I took the bus for the first time. After a while the bus came and we went on, it was really scary but still I was curios (last time I was in my traveling cage but today I just sat in my harness and leash).

After a while we went of the bus and then we walked to a place were we meet eci_frog, then we walked to the park! It was really fun and we met more people including bergtatt (who always gives me yummy things and lets me do anything I want ^^).

It was really fun to be in the park again, and I got all the attention I wanted ^^

After some hours in the park mum and the others began to pack their stuff. And mum put my short leash (me long leash is over 5 meters) on and then I, mum, eci_frog and pekko (a guy mum plays go with) walked to the university (mum plays go there).

After a while eci_frog went, and I was placed on a blanket on a table. Mum said that we were going to leave soon she just had to hear when they are going to play tomorrow. Then after a while we left again, after I had said hi to all the guys mum plays with.

And then mum carried me for a long time and then we took the bus home again.

Me right after I turned on the music on bergtatt's computer (to his surprise), so here I listen to the music:


I also have to add that Balto has moved in in our apartment now after a long while with Hamsterguardian. She is going to write something about that to when she's getting better.

Fire!

Before five this morning the fire alarm began to scream... I was really scary... But as mum said I behaved very well even if I was terrified... We are inside or apartment again (we were allowed to enter it again about 05:30). I'm a little more relaxed now and are lying on the floor beside the table in this very moment, looking at mum helping me write this entry.

The most scariest part was that the fire alarm screamed so loud. But when we stood outside it came two monsters that was blinking blue as well, and they were also really scary, but still not so scary as the fire alarm.

When we came inside again I was placed on the bed and was given lots of sunflower seeds because I was so well behaved and brave this morning.


I'm now going to quote the post mum wrote at Kanin.org this morning. I know it is in Norwegian but it is mainly for those who are close to us and they speak Norwegian (mum has not decided yet if she is going to translate it to English):

I morgen før klokken frem gikk brannalarmen her i huset vi bor i. Jeg klekke på meg i en fart og fikk etter en stund frem en livredd Aristoteles med vidåpne øyne fra under sengen. Brannalarmen er ikke akkurat noe han liker nei... På vei ut utgangsdøren begynte vi å lukte røyk.

Vel utenfor bygget møtte vi mange andre som var skikkelig irriterte for å bli vekket så tidlig. Etter en stund kom to brannbilder med blålys og røykdykkere som kom seg inn i bygget. Etter en god stund ble bygget klarert og de som bodde i den delen av blokken hvor brannen hadde oppstått og fikk beskjed om å lufte ut. Etter en stund med en gigantisk vifte for å få ut røyk fikk vi som bor i motstående blokk gå inn.

Aristoteles oppførte seg helt eksemplarisk i morges enda han var livredd og hater og bli løftet. Han kom ut fra innerst under sengen (som han hadde søkt tilflukt under på grunn av brannalarmen) uten å bli dratt ut og til min store glede slapp jeg å måtte ta ham i nakkeskinnet, men tokk ganske enkelt og la begge armene rundt ham og fikk dyttet ham ut og løftet ham opp. På vei ut av bygget gjemte han hodet under armen min ettersom lyden fra brannalarmen var kjempe høy og fæl og skremmende. Når vi kom ut gikk vi ut til noen Aristoteles har møtt før for å slippe at han skulle bli enda reddere av de som sto rundt. Han satt stille på armen min, uten å prøve å hoppe ned, med hodet opp mot halsen min med vidåpne øyne. Etter en stund roet han seg ned igjen, og ble også trøstet av en som sto utenfor som han kjenner litt fra før. Så kom brannbilene og i stedet for å prøve å stikke av fra lysene gjemte han hodet under armen min igjen. Etter en stund turde han å ta frem hodet igjen og puttet hodet opp mot halsen min igjen og slikket meg noen ganger for å trøste en mor som også ble ganske stresset av at han var det. Når vi endelig kom inn i bygget igjen satt fortsatt Aristoteles helt stille til han ble plassert på hodeputen på sengen, uten å prøve å hoppe ned med en gang vi kom inn døra, noe han pleier å gjøre etter vi har vært på tur. Han satt helt fin i senga helt til jeg la meg ned sammen med ham og ga han solsikke frø og fortalte ham hvor flink han hadde vært. Nå noen timer etter derimot sitter han under sengen igjen fortsatt litt redd, men han kom frem for å få pelleten sin som vanlig.

Heldigvis gikk det bra og heldigvis var ikke brannen i vårt bygg og heldigvis spredde den seg ikke ut av leiligheten den var i. Men likevel sitter jeg igjen med et støkk i meg noe Aristoteles tydeligvis merket ettersom han som sagt prøvde å trøste meg når vi sto ute og så opp på vinduet til et rom fylt av røyk. Hva om Aristoteles er alene hjemme når det brenner? Hva om han brenner inne mens jeg er på en forelesning? osv. Om ikke så mange timene skal jeg på forelesning igjen og jeg kjenner at jeg egentlig har mest lyst til å ta ham med. Men han skal selvsagt får være hjemme ettersom en tur til universitetet ikke er noe han trenger nå etter å ha hatt en veldig stressende start på dagen. Har i alle fall planlagt å prate med noen som bor i gangen rundt meg om at hvis jeg ikke er hjemme under brann så har de lov til å bryte seg inn i leiligheten min for å redde ut Aristoteles.

Hehe, nå kom Aristoteles ut fra under sengen og lurte på hva jeg drev med og ser rett og slett litt leken og tigger etter å få papayatablettene sine. Han ser heldigvis ikke så stresset ut lenger, det var veldig godt å se :)

A picture from Wikipedia of one of the monsters (and baby monsters that came out of it with snakes and stuff) with the blinking blue light:

But now mum are going to give me my daily papaya tablets, so I have to go.

Outside in the sun

Since I got my new harness today, and since it was nice weather outside today, me and mum were outside in the garden.

This is the fist time I'm outside this year. Except from the terrible day when I was outside in the terrible so-called snow... But that doesn't count!

Sorry for the terrible picture and video quality, but mum used her mobile phone camera.

Me sniffing at some interesting leaves on the ground:

Had to clean myself a lot since it was really wet outside:


"What are you looking at?"

"Interesting..."


"What's this?"


Bunny in the wind:

Yummy grass:


Video of me playing outside in the garden:

Snow

Today I was out in the snow for the first time, and it was TERRIBLE! And REALLY scary!

And were was all the tasty green grass gone?

I will newer lay a paw on that terrible frozen water again! It's unnatural! Water is a liquid not a solid!

After we came inside again I hid myself under the bed, and I haven't come out yet (except from one time when mum offered me some hay).

Opening my present

Today I got a Christmas present! I don't know what this Christmas thing means jet but I think it involves loots of treats since I got a loot of them in my present without even doing a trick to earn them! I got Clementine, ten sunflower seeds, my daily Papaya Tablets (Oxbow) medicine (which tastes great ^^) and three Critter Berries (Oxbow)!

By the way look at my cool black ribbon! I really like it and have been showing it to all the people that have seen me today by raising my neck up and towards them. Mum is really surprised because she thought that I would hate to hate it and chew it apart. But you have to understand mum; I'm named after a great philosopher so I like to look pretty!
