The Hay Sampler
Daisy has had this kind of fun before, but the “Hay Sampler” is a new experience for Hugo. We opened up this big box, and watched to see what the bunnies would do.

Chew Chew Chew
For no good reason, here’s a short video of Daisy and Hugo, chewing on a bit of cardboard.
Bunny Tunnel Vision
I tried to be very quiet and slow, for fear of startling her. I got a few quick photos, and then decided to take some video of her just… well, sitting there. And then this happened:
A New Wooden Cottage for Daisy and Hugo
This one is more of a replacement for the constant stream of cardboard structures we’ve made for them. We didn’t want to use another two-story structure, for fear of Daisy’s failing eyesight. Better to keep things low to the ground.
Daisy the Stoic
Tonight when we were sitting with the bunnies (a nightly ritual for us, near the end of the evening), Hugo was bopping around some. But Liz and I were laughing at Daisy, who was just sitting still, with this kind of far-off daze on her face. Just totally checked out and indifferent.
Daisy is Hard Down
Liz and I have a silly saying that we use, whenever we see that Daisy is fast asleep. If we can tell she’s really out sleeping, we’ll say “She’s hard down!”
Hugo Burrito
We had some long overdue bunny maintenance planned today (cleaning Daisy up with some wet wipes, and clipping Hugo’s toenails). For both, Liz and I employed the tried and true “bunny burrito” method.
Cottage Duo
Got this lovely moment, when both Hugo and Daisy were in the cottage together. This has traditionally been Daisy’s spot, so it was fun to see Hugo also jammed in here with her.
Hugo, Napping
Usually, Hugo is all full of pep and energy. So it was a rare treat to find him taking a nap, and to see him flopped over a bit on his side to boot.
Gingerbun House
The whole structure is a combination of actual gingerbread, icing, and polymer clay. I also think that a hot glue gun was involved. What this means is that, were I to try to eat portions of this Gingerbun house… there’s a 40% chance I’d encounter something that was not meant for human consumption.
Clay Bunnies
For her office holiday party/event, all of Liz’s coworkers are building gingebread houses. They’re all getting kits to assemble, and are doing a kind of Zoom-based, real-time gingerbread construction (remotely).
In preparation, Liz decided she was going to create some extra details. Translation: bunny rabbits.
Top Bun
It’s nice to see him up and about, as he still seems a little shy and nervous. In the evenings, when we open up their area to give them more room to run/roam… he seems more comfortable. He’s not a bunny I would call adventurous, but he’s seemed a little more so tonight.
Wary
Back home, after some time away… the bunnies are a little aloof. Daisy’s fine, and is pretty quick to adjust as she’s done this a lot before. But Hugo seems to be very unsure of things, and has kept his distance.
Daisy’s Hut, Hugo’s Elevator Rides
Tonight, Liz came down to find Daisy hanging out in the wooden hut. With her little leg, dangling off the front. She seemed laid back, relaxed. But that little foot dangle added a bit of regality, I think.
Hugo on Top
Today, a first – came down to see Hugo, standing on the top floor. He and I looked at one another, and we were both pretty confused.
