Planned Purlhood

Most who know me personally know that I’ve been wanting a house rabbit for some time. This week it finally happened. The right bun made his appeal, and we came home with a 6-week old Holland Lop buck on Monday.

He went from “aww” cuteness…

to Disapproving Rabbits contender in 4 days flat.

Basil’s been going through a steady, but hopefully heavy moult. This makes bathtime all the more necessary and funny. His idea of a “bath” is to stand in his water dish, and put his head between his legs. That’s pretty much it, he doesn’t hunker down and splash water up with his wings like normal birds.

Anyway, he thinks he’s pretty hot stuff with his extremities wet, so I give you the latest series of silly cockatoo photos.

Best bet? Climb up seven feet into the air and strike the almost-ultimate display of might cockatoo-ness.

“Imma flirt wif you!”

Then we have the classic, “O rly!”
