In the weekends mum and dad often forget that we are supposed to get our breakfast everyday at 06:30.
When Runa was still here she jumped up in the bed and woke both mum and dad at 06:00 to get them to get them up and give us our morning ration of pellets. Sometimes she was lifted out of the bed again, but she never gave up until dad was awake and gave us pellets. And then she woke them at again at 09:00, to make sure that they didn't loose the whole day (and sometimes to play in the bed afterwards).
I don't like to jump up in the bed as it's a bit to tall for me (but I did jump up and wake mum everyday when we lived alone, to get her to feed me and for our daily morning cuddelig sessions), and since Frigg has problems with her eyesight she prefers to have her feet on the ground. So now Frigg and me have to use other methods to wake them up: I'm staring and asking them for food until they wake up, while Frigg starts digging and chewing on the blanket. But she usually does that after they have turned on the light anyway, while I sit staring at them even when the light is turned of. It takes a while, but we get our food in the end.
"Get out of bed and feed us! We are starving here!"
Feed us!

When daddy came home yesterday Runa was feeling really bad. I watched over her and she was lying by my side. Then mum and dad noticed that her head was really tilted and that she didn't n want food. Mum at once expected this to be the parasite E. cuniculi so we went right to the vet (our regular vet didn't have time to us so we had to drive the car really far this time).
When we came to the vet I was really afraid and thought they was going to look on me. Frigg was brave as usual, but Runa was really afraid and pretended she was feeling well.
The vet came to the same conclusion as mummy, and since it's a really dangerous parasite for rabbits we're all on antiparasitic medication now. Runa also have to take antibiotics and have her teeth fixed.
Today Runa still don't want to eat that much so daddy had to feed her with Critical Care this morning.
We're going to our regular vet today and hopefully we also will get some painkillers since she grinds her teeth sometimes. We all also have to take blood samples to check for E. cuniculi.
Right now we're all really afraid.
The picture is of me guarding Runa while she eats some Critical Care by herself some minutes ago. I also wanted some after she was finished, but stupid mum took it away..

Hello
Today I helped pappi with the human breakfast.
Pappi left the dough to swell on the hot bathroom floor.
I helped him out by jumping on the dough.
Pappi was really happy and appreciated my skills.

Hello fellow rabbits. Today I want to share with you how to eat your hay. You like my brother are probably eating your hay inside your hay station for convince. But it actually tastes phenomenal when you drag it all over the floor. And daddy gives you a cute look :-)

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!
Bonding: Aristoteles and Runa :3

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?

No more cage!
I'm having problems with my tummy again, but this time I'm perfectly capable of eating myself.
When mum first made Critical Care mix for me some days ago I ran and hid under the bed as usual and kept a long distance to my dish. But now some days later I've found out that it actually tastes really nice when you can eat it out of a dish and not have it forced down your throat with a syringe.
Trying to get mum to give me pellets again though; she's just giving me hay, water and critical care + my daily papayatablet right now... I want my daily ration of pellets back!
Yum yum Critical Care

Right now we're visiting granddad and my aunts. Some days ago my it started to hurt inside my mouth so I kind of lost my apetite yesterday. It hurts so much when I chew, but it hav ehurted a little. So I have just eaten soft things, like leaves and dandilions or tasty things like my papaya tablets. And even thought I tried to trick mum into believing that I was fine by running a lot and pretending to eat she understood and today she and granddad took me to the vet after I had "played" a while in the garden...
And after the terrible new vet looked at my teeth mum LEFT me! And then they gave me something and I felt asleep. When I woke up I feelt really bad and my mouth hurt. A vet came and gave me Critical Care and then my old vet(!!!) came even though we are about 450 km away from home!
[mums comment: His old vet had moved to work on this veterinary office, I was really surprised to find out].After a looooooong time mum came and picked me up and granddad drove us home. Right now I'm sitting in the cage inside my enclosure here, with a blanket over me and is feeling kind of betrayed. Stupid mum... We're on a vacation and she left me with the vet :(
Think I'm going to try to relax a little, before mum starts to give me Critical Care.
[mums comment: His medication after fixing he's teeth this time is painkillers for three days (starting tomorrow), FibrePlex and Critical Care.]

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

Cause dandelions is best you know :3
Aristoteles seems fine now, and finished all of his cures today, and it seems like his well now :)
Psst: Look at Balto's lovely blue eyes ^^
Some pictures of my little Balto (I think I'm going to opload some pictures from Christmas later).
Look at his small adorable and cute paws <3
(unfortunately I had to take the pictures trough his cage so that's why the pictures is full of stripes)
Yes, he's still alive ^^

My tummy hurted again on Thursday, so mum took me back to the vets office. I was really scared! [mums comment: And me too, the vet told me that if he wasn't better the next day they wanted to open him to see if something was blocking his gut].
When we came home mum gave me something and afterwards it didn't hurt that much, she also forced me into drinking water. I CAN drink myself you know! I also had to start to take paraffin again.
But now I'm feeling better, and mum have even given me some outside plants and a little branch I can chew on.
The really sad thing is that she have taken my cardboard boxes and laid a blanket over them in such a way that I can't play with them. Se says it's from my own good, but I really want to play with them...
I'm a a lion hear me roar! (relaxing under the desk)

I'm feeling much better now.
Started to feel better and hungry yesterday so I have eaten lots of hay, and then I just started to feel better and better. I think it's magic of something!
So now I'm eating by myself as you can see on the picture (but of course it looks like I'm in shock or something, but I'm not).
I feel like always actually.
And do you know what I have discovered!? Mum haven't given me pellets the whole time I have felt ill, and even not today when I'm feeling just fine! So I have to philosophise on how to give me all the pellets at once. But as usual I think she is going to give me my regular pellets ration (or maybe less!!!)... But that doesn't mean that I have given up yet!

Thursday evening I didn't feel really well and my tummy was really painful, so when mum gave my my pellets I didn't eat as I was in so much pain. So mum force-feed with Critical Care me and massaged my tummy. I tried to run away of course but my strength just disappeared as I tried.
The next morning I was feeling better and ate a little pellets so mum went to do some errands. And while she was away I started to feel ill again, and didn't manage to finish my food. I tried to trick mum into believing everything was fine but she force-feed me again and put me in the my carrier. So we went to PetVett again... The vet checked my teeth as usual and after mum said something the started to touch my belly and I tried to run away. We went out but didn't leave and after a while another vet came took me away from mum(!) then she laid me on a table and held me tight and I was really scared. But then she took me back to mum. I tried to tell mum that we had to run and that these people was trying to kill me or worse! Then the vet came out again and we went into the room where I had been held on the table. Mum and the vet was looking on something and talked. I picked up the words serious, but I'm always serious you know.
Mum left me with the vets again and they force-feed me with something and then I was held on the table again before they gave me some medicine and put a cable (you know almost like the one that mum has put out of my reach) with water or something in one of my front legs (it really painful because it has a torn in it that they put in my leg).
After a long long time mum picked me up and we took the bus home, and then I was put in my cage even though I wanted to run under the bed. Mum also force-feed me and gave me medicine.
Now two days later I was allowed to go out of my cage. And I'm feeling a little better but I'm still feeling really sick, but I have managed to eat a little (mum has brought some really tasty hay, I think it is called alfaalfa hay or something). Right now I'm lying under mums desk and telling her what to write.
So see you later, and I will try to keep you fans a little updated on how I'm feeling.
[Mums comment: Aristotels has became really sick. The x-rays showed that his stomach has been magnified and he has problems with his digestion. I was tolled that if I had come later, it could have been to late for him... He got intravenous therapy at the vet (the cord he is talking about), and some medicines. Right now he gets antibiotics, medical paraffin and FibrePlex (and Critical Care). It's seems like his condition is stable right now, but if he gets worse it's straight back to the vet.]

The day before yesterday me and mum went to the park, and meet many people. It was fun, it's been almost a year since last time I think. Thousand years maybe!
Anyway: Yesterday mum took me to the botanical garden. There we met S and she and mum tried to read while I thought about chewing on their books, to consume some literature. What to you expect? I'm named after a great philosopher, and not just any great philosopher, the one that founded biology! So I can't resist ecology books. But I didn't chew on them, though.
I relaxed a bit under mums backpack before I started to explore a little and tried to chew on a tree, then I cleaned myself and THEN! mum picks me up and puts me in the carrier. I try to run away but is NO use!
And before I know it we are in the scariest place on all of earth: PETVETT! Mum took me out of the carrier and I sat on heir lap trying to hide under her arm. But then the vet come out and was calling my name. Mum started moving into the dark and scary office! And I tried to run away! But still to no use!
Then mum held me tight and the vet looked at my eyes, then she opened my mouth and looked on my front teeth. She went to get that thing, and I tried to tell mum that we had to run for it! But like always she got tricked and I had to get that thing in my mouth so she could look at my molars. Like always I tried to chew or spit it out, but the vet's evil powers were to strong...
Mum and the vet talked a bit and then we could go and I hid under mums arm in case the evil vet was going to change her mind and do some more tests!
[Mums comment: He didn't have to be put in anaesthesia to get his teeth corrected this time. The vet thinks thinks his teeth is getting better (she said that his molars look like those of a cat or dog, but that that is fine as long as his teeth are stabilising), so were not going back for a new control until July/August].
After we left the vet we took the bus to H, and there we sat in her garden so I could run a little (but I had to use my leash). A big cat came and really scared mum and H. I don't know what the most scary part was; the cat of the fact that mum was scared. But after being scared a way a couple of times by mum the cat left.
After being at H's for sometime, we took the bus home.
