Padfoot may very well have had the best day of his Mini Lop life today. He's had it rough. His first family didn't pay attention to him, then he moved to the Humane Society then he moved to our apartment, then to our house. Then, a rambunctious and ridiculous Lionhead bunny became his adopted baby brother and they had to share a room together. Even though he had a clean place to sleep and endless food, hay, lettuce, and carrots, he just wasn't a happy bunny.
We've been getting the boys out to run around the screened in porch - one at a time of course because Padfoot gets upset whenever Ron is near him. (Recently, Ron has taken to jumping up near Padfoot's cage trying to see who's in there. Padfoot does not like this.) We haven't been able to get Padfoot to come out of his cage because he freaks out whenever we try to pick him up, so today I decided to take Ron's cage out of the room, put Padfoot's cage on the floor, and open his door.
He came out right away. He ran around and hopped and sniffed and played. We got out a ball and he pushed it around adorably. I think he was the happiest he's been since he's been with us and I am pleased. He went back in his cage after about 30 minutes of exercise and exploration and assumed his favorite position...sprawled out in the corner of his cage.
