Look what just ran by outside our window! Nyctereutes procyonoides, a raccoon dog! :-D
It’s been a while since I’ve posted a bunny update, huh? These are actually from a month ago, in early September. Still, you can see how much Daisy and Basil have grown in three weeks or so between my last post and this one. Will try to get some current pictures to show how much fluffier they are now!
Misu getting ready for bed.
Family of swans on the way to work this morning :-D
“I LUUUURVE YOU, BUNNY.”
“Pfs gf ff mf fs.”
“WHAT’S THAT, HONEYBUN?”
“Can you please get off my face?”

From January 2008. A neighbor’s young black cat came over to visit and attempted to play with 6-month old Misu. She just stood there staring and looking befuddled while he tried to poke her into action. Sigh.
OMG. On one hand, I have the bad feeling these are feral rabbits that probably have a very short life expectancy. On the other hand, friendly bunnies that sit on your shoulder.

Misu, January 2008. At some point, the hubby started letting her burrow into the front of his hoodies, kangaroo style. She would keep doing this even when she’d doubled in size. We also resigned ourselves to the possibility that she would never learn to lie down without her feet sticking out frog-like. Lastly, she started getting more frequent visits from the other feline residents of our apartment complex. We’d had her fixed early, so saw this as a good chance to socialize her. One black kitten came in to eat her food and try to play, an older grey tabby starting offering evening serenades outside the window. She was clueless on both counts.
Introducing Casa Kerfuffle’s two newest arrivals, Daisy and Basil! They are Finnish angora half-siblings. Daisy is a tortoiseshell girl and Basil is a fawn-colored boy. She’s about two weeks younger than him and tons braver. I had to get all paparazzi in the nest box to get his photo :-P Both are tres fluffy, which will be a big plus when winter comes!
More classic Misu. These are from December 2007. As you can see, we tried unsuccessfully to expose her to nature. She decided grass was evil, climbed the hubby like a tree and demanded loudly to be taken back home.
There is also the first of many shots of her in her favorite “frog position” of lying down. More belly exposed to the tiles, I suppose. She started getting a bit more rotund around then as well, and we could start to see how she was going to grow into those huge paws and ears.
Last but not least, there is the picture of the “sandal incident” - we heard frantic thumping one evening and turned around to see that our new furry peabrain had underestimated her size. The first of many times, btw. Naturally, we snapped a photo before releasing her ;-)
