I Hate Cotton

Holy Cow! Can my mom slack off any more? It's been like forever since my last blog - all because mom is *busy* - what-EVER!

Well, actually she has been busy - busy at work and busy with Rabbit Rescue (that's where mom and dad volunteer). And with Easter on the doorstep, there are all kinds of Easter-ish things to do as well. Rabbit Rescue has a booth at the All About Pets Show which is happening all this weekend in Mississauga (near Toronto) so they have been working there. They have also been doing some bunny runs too, picking up bunnies from shelters and taking them to their foster homes. Being "bunny people" keeps them hopping, that's for sure. But I told mom, "Mom! I got my peeps out there who want to know what I am up to, so sit down on that computer and type this up for me......!"

So the video I am sharing with you this week features me, of course. It is a good demonstration of my hatred for cotton. Most of you are aware that I have a Stupid Blanket. It's "stupid" because all it does is make smarty-pants comments to me all day so I need to jump up onto the couch where it is and dig and chew it and tell it who's boss (ahem, that would be me BTW). Well, that blanket is made of cotton and I chew it to bits! I pretty much chew anything that is cotton. Including daddy's t-shirts.

Daddy has special "Fluffy shirts" that he wears when he comes downstairs to watch t.v. with me and Binks. I like to hop up onto the couch, jump on his chest and teach those shirts a thing or two. I like to dig at them, chew big holes in them and rip them! Sometimes I accidentally bite right through to daddy's chest, making him screech in pain, but he never chases me away. He has quite a collection of little bunny-bite bruises under those t-shirts.

So enjoy the show! And, on behalf of Miss Binks and myself, I'd like to wish everyone a Hoppy Easter! Enjoy your chocolate Easter eggs, but remember - the ones in the litterbin are not chocolate! Hee hee...

Hef's Mom said...: Hef's dad has "fluffy" shirts as well that I wear when it is cold and Hef likes to chew them as well. He seems partial to the zipper teeth, and chewed one zipper right off!; April 4, 2010 at 5:16 AM

Jade said...: Love the video, you're just too cute, Fluffy. :)

I have T-shirts with bunny-made holes just like that--although mine have the holes up near the shoulders because that's where Mickey likes to sit. Must be something about rabbits and cotton, he rarely chews anything else, although he will dig in almost any kind of fabric.; April 4, 2010 at 11:00 PM

Rabbit Rescue Poem

I used to be a lonely rabbit,
Just looking for a home.
I simply had no place to go,
No one to call my own.

I wandered through the streets and fields,
in rain in heat and snow.
I ate what ever I could find,
I was always on the go.

My skin would itch, my feet were sore,
My body ached with pain.
And no one stopped to give a pat
Or gently say my name.

I never saw a loving glance,
I was always on the run.
For people thought that hurting me
was really lots of fun.

And then one day I heard a voice
So gentle, kind and sweet,
And arms so soft reached down to me
And took me off my feet.

"No one again will hurt you"
Was whispered in my ear.
"You’ll have a home to call your own
where you will know no fear.

You will be dry, you will be warm,
you’ll have enough to eat
And rest assured that when you sleep,
your dreams will all be sweet."

I was afraid I must admit,
I’ve lived so long in fear.
I can’t remember when I let
A human come so near.

And as she tended to my wounds
And cleaned and brushed my fur
She told me ‘bout the rescue group
And what it meant to her.

She said, "We are a circle,
A line that never ends.
And in the center there is you
protected by new friends.

And all around you are the ones
Who'll keep you safe and sound,
Who will share their loving home with you
Until a forever one can be found.

We will do all we can
by searching near and far,
To find the perfect home for you,
where you can be a star."

She said, "There is a family,
that’s waiting patiently,
and pretty soon we’ll find them,
just you wait and see.

And then they’ll join our circle,
they’ll help to make it grow,
so there’ll be room for more like you,
who have no place to go."

I waited very patiently,
The days, they came and went.
Today’s the day, I would hope,
my family will be sent.

Then just when I began to think
It wasn’t meant to be,
there were people standing there
just gazing down at me.

I knew them in a heartbeat
I could tell they felt it too.
They said "We have been searching for
A special bunn like you."

Now every night I say a prayer
to all the Gods that be.
Thank you for the life I live
and all you’ve given me.

But most of all protect the bunnies
in the pound and on the street.
And send a Rabbit Rescue Person
to lift them off their feet.
