They are boxed trained - so they are free to roam the house. They run around, then roam back to their box to munch and poop and stuff. As you know, they don't have hands, so to get to know stuff they give it a chew. Chewing on houseplants is NOT good - very poisionous to bunnies.
I've since put up a green screen in that tree to keep the bad Diesel out of it. He's the explorer.... he finds everything.
Each of the 4 are so different. They just crack me up.

If I move one thing in the house... I mean one thing - slide a chair over a foot, change out a throw rug, etc.. they are all over it in a moment. Looking at it from each angle, checking it out, re-memorizing the room lay out - every nuance in and out.
They watch the play of light through the windows and determine where to rest or sleep according to path in, path out, light, etc.
Smarter may not be the best term - but surely more aware of every little thing.
They're never "off". If you can see them, they're already looking at you. They never, ever take their eyes off of you. It used to creep me out... I'm all "relax, dammit...." Like a dog or cat will roll over and just pass out in the middle of the room... never happens with these guys. They are aware, alert and always on. They associate sounds with stimulus - just like Cats and Dogs, too.
Knife on a cutting board 3 rooms away???? Must be Ken cutting apple for us so they all come rolling out... Car pulling up in the afternoon?? Jake is home to spoil us some more.... so they all come rolling up to the front door.
They have an internal clock like dogs and cats... I mean every day at 4:00 PM - its "where's my snack time...?" At 10:00 PM, it starts again... Its too funny when the time changes... they're an hour early or an hour late for a couple of weeks...
They play and play and play... Not that this makes them smart, but it keeps them fit. Rabbits never need to be walked or worked out. They get their own exercise.
Maybe I've just had dumb cats and dogs... but I've never had a pet so aware, so alert, so finely tuned to its surroundings, to changes, to everything as my rabbits are. They learn so quickly, and remember everything.
Being at the bottom of the food chain means you gotta have some game. They are built for speed and agility. They are quiet and care deeply for each other.
They amaze me.

An old girlfriend of mine taught her rabbit to go in a litter box. Damn thing would chew anything it got its teeth on.

OK, instead of cutting the measuring tape and inch a day, I'll cut it 2 inches a day, and inch a day to cut the rain away!justleesa:
