Thanks, Slave!

I don't know where to begin...

 The Slave has finally decided to let me get in a daily dose of Parsley. She has been trying to "perfect" her bunnies diets for years, and Parsley has always been one of the no-no's, except on special occasions. All because Parsley has calcium. Can't she give a delicious plant a break?

  Well apparently she can. She finally 

figured out that since I only have pellets occasionally (And they contain calcium as well.) that it would be Ok if it got some Parsley everyday. Geesh. All this time when I could've been getting parsley.

  I suppose I should eat it before she comes up with some excuse as to why I can't have it:

  Why all the worry about calcium? Well some bunnies if they get too much will get bladder sludge and all kinds of nasty things. (<-Notice it says SOME bunnies, Slave.)

  I'm lucky I get anything with this Slave taking care of me. I wish I was around when she was gaving M&D handfuls of Raisin's a day! I haven't even tried one!

If You Thought Chocolate was Addicting...

Imagine petting a chocolate bunny...

Pet me.

You know you want to...

 

Oh yes. I'm as soft as I look.

 This is one of the first pictures of her. As you can see, she looks particularly luscious in this picture.

 While Duchess isn't a big fan of getting cuddled, lets just say she's gotten used to it...

    Ok, now I need to go pet somebunny...

Need More Thyme in The Day...

*Sigh* So much to do...So little time (Also more Thyme wouldn't hurt)...

Where to start?

  Occasionally I have to make sure I give out my "NoseBonk of Approval" when necessary:

 I also have to make sure the Slave's making my breakfast or dinner depending on the time of day:

Eat Hay when I get the chance:

Eat my greens:

This is it? I thought this was the appetizer...

(Actually this is Second breakfast. Surprisingly I don't have any pictures of her eating breakfast/dinner)

 I also have to investigate strange objects:

This is going to take a while...

Can't forget to pray that the Camera breaks:

(...And maybe the slave could forget she already fed me, and give me some extra greens...)

Entertain the Slaves:

Eat greens again:

Dig on the bed:

You call this bed "made"?

Find time to Sleep:

The "Sleeperhold"

(You do realize I'm not actually sleeping?)

   ...

 

Not to mention I have to get in as many pets/treats as possible, destroy at least one thing, and make the Slave laugh/smile as many times as possible...

 Well I suppose eating hay/greens would be a good start...

I Commited the Ultimate Crime

Go ahead, I DARE you

 I dared all right:

That's not embarassing

*Slurp*

Please, PLEASE make it stop!

 Well, I did have pity on her and put the camera away not long after this picture. She was more than happy to enjoy the rest of her pumpkin by herself. I did water down the pumpkin a little bit on accident, and it resulted in a ton of tongue action. Which was fine by me, although Duchess, of course, had a problem... 

 Duchess Here:Do us bunnies take pictures of our slaves with food smeared all over their face, tongues protruding, and post it on the world wide web Ooing and Aaahing over how cute they are? I didn't think so.

  Sorry Duchess, but those pictures were just too good to pass up. 

 (Note to self: Make sure camera is out of reach...)

 Duchess was sure to stay off the piano today, but I was sort of glad because I have yet to find the charger for the video camera...

Thursday's (hopefully) the Big Day!

 You think this is snoozing?  

   While we may have been "quiet" this past week, we've got big plans for the next coming days. Well, we hope.

   We're hoping to deliver baggies Thursday, if not then, then definitely next week. Also when we deliver the bags, there is a slight chance that I won't be the only rabbit on the car ride back...
 
   Until next post...

"Santa's" Little Helper...NOT!!

  Well last night I made the mistake of putting toys together in front of Duchess...

Somebun's gotta do quality check right? I mean this bag is all the way from August...So OLD!

  Apparently she felt the need to make sure that everything tastes like its supposed to. The Alfalfa is something I've had since August, so I didn't mind if she had a few bites of that...Just not in the bag. So I let her have clean-up duty:

 
Duchess here:

 The Slave is such a slob. I mean look at all this hay spilled! Although I have to say this was the best tasting clean up duty ever.

So while the Slave's got that whole thing going on, I've been trying to sneak into one of the bags that some more good stuff is in, like the one of each of the two kinds of twigs is in (Apple& birch...Smells SOOO good!) but she's been pretty good about keeping that away from me. She keeps telling me if I get into one of those bags, then that's yet another bag short for the bunnies.

Apparently only the bunnies at the rescue's main house will be getting baggies, since she hasn't gotten enough donations to also include the fostered bunnies. She's already pretty darn skimpy with the twig handing out, only two twigs per bag? *snorts* She's also putting in a few sprigs of rosemary (which I detest!) that's home grown and she's picking our lemon balm bush clean to try and cover just the bags for the bunnies at the main house. Can't I get any lemon balm around here?? Geesh.

   So as I was saying, she had clean up duty. Something she (obviously) enjoyed. Now while she did enjoy doing that, it didn't stop her from jumping on me everytime she heard a rustle of anything. Amazingly I did manage fill a good amount of toys despite her highness.

  This past Friday (Yep, Black Friday.) I went by Hobby Lobby and found a cute little stocking that'd be perfect for her:

 And then stitched her name at the top, a bit of a squeeze, but I managed (barely). By the way, the missing pom pom is in the stocking, I have yet to hot glue it back on.
 
  I still haven't found the time to work on the toy testing video, as things just keep popping up!

        Until next post...

We Interupt this Blog with an Important Annoucement

The Early stages of Bagging...Here about 18 baggies have Birch twigs w/leaves in them, she wanted to snap a picture before she had used everything.

Duchess here again,

  First off, Toy Testing part 2 has been delayed due to a lazy I mean busy slave.

   

 While the slave is busy with preparing for Thanksgiving festivities tomorrow; I thought I'd hop by and give y'all a quick update on the Bags for Bunnies thing for the adoptables MHRR(Magic Happens Rabbit Rescue).

  Today we received the package of Natural Noms stuffs we ordered from the Bunspace store for the bunnies. With the donations we received we were able to get some Birch twigs with leaves, some Apple twigs with leaves, and some delicious Banana bites. So far we have filled 32 bags with the Birch twigs w/leaves, and 26 of those 32 have also been filled with the Apple twigs w/leaves. We're short about 13 Birch twigs and 19 apple twigs. We were trying to get around 45 bags filled, so we're short a filling a few bags. 

  

 Right now she's just dividing the twig stuff into bags, she has yet to put in the timothy hay, and she has started putting the stuff in the toys. In the toys she's going to put a lil alfalfa and a bunny bite, and a few pellets to give it more of a rattling sound. (I'm jealous!)She's also putting in two sprigs of homegrown Rosemary in each bag as well.

  

  If you want to see how you can help fill the rest of the bags, just visit the page we've got set up on my slaves site.

   Don't forget to hop by tomorrow evening to check out my Thanksgiving card!!

          Until my next post,

                     Duchess

P.S

Did you just say something about my so called "strange" shedding pattern?

*Slave closes mouth and looks in other direction*

I thought so.

          

        

Toy Testing Part 1

                                                           

                 Get back here!

  Hello, Duchess here!

    Well the Slave is finally getting the ball rolling for the Bags for Bunnies thing for Magic Happens Rabbit Rescue. Which means...Toy testing! I don't mind in the least, after all, I get extra treats! (Which in my case is pellets, I like those just as much as any treat.)

  

   Last Friday the slaves approaches me with this cardboard tube with ends stuck on either side. She shakes it around a bit and puts it down, it immediately has my interest since I can hear those pellets shakin' around in there. So I then proceeded to go after it. I didn't get anywhere with it. She then took it away, poked a hole on the tube, and put it back down. NOW I could get somewhere with it!

 As seen in the picture I had to shove it around a bit before I could actually get treats; but I did get some pellets after I threw it around a bit and chewed on the hole to make it bigger. You can see below for a before/after picture:

 If anything I think I improved on its design, larger hole=Less effort=More time to harass the slaves for treats.

   The Slave also took it apart so you could see how its constructed easier:

 Now that its bunny approved, she gets to make 45 more like this. Although its more like 37 now since she's made some, not to mention the extra ones she yas yet to put together. Its a work in progress. She is also using wrapping paper "rolls" as the tubes, its somewhat flimsier, but they work just as well.

 As you can see, we have some finished ones, as well as some no-where near finished ones, as well as a box that needs to be

de-constructed.

 These are some of the toys that'll be put in the goodie bags for the adoptables at MHRR.(You can see how you can help here.)

 Now there will be a Toy Testing part 2 post narrated by yours truly. I've put the slave to work on a new video of me testing out this toy, the part thats taking forever is picking out the right music.

  

   Besides all of that, the Slave has felt it necessary to give me a title, (As if the name "Duchess" wasn't enough)and she decided to come up with some french phrase that's something like this: Duchess-Le Cochon Peu De Chocolat...Whatever it means, I'm sure it is a complete and total lie.

            Until the my next post,

                   Duchess

(Slave here: It means The Little Chocolate Pig. Trust me, it describes her perfectly.)
