Cat Spotted

Kiley Rabbit spotted a cat that looked alarmingly like Brother just a few houses away. We would be out there with nets, to check out this feline and possibly arrange for a capture, but apparently this is a full size kitty! We were sure Brother was going to be shrunk to kitten size. We were actually counting on it. What in the world will we do if he's managed to revert to his full size already? He will be totally unmanageable. At least at kitten size, we would all be larger than him, and could ensure cooperation.

Redecorating Job

Well, I checked the latest rabbit work list, and I am down for something related to the country cottage renovations. The rabbits have assigned me to be a pillow stuffer and fluffer. My job will be to either poke pillows into cases, or to poke stuffing into pillows, depending upon the pillow type, and then to ensure the pillows are nice and fluffy for placing on the bunk beds. Really! That job is sure to attract polar bears, who will assume that the stuffing is wool that they need for quilt batting. I will be harassed the entire time! And do you know what else is bad about these bunks? The bunnies have the notion that we can share the bunks! They've already issued my sleeping assignment, when we go to the country cottage for a few days, on the top bunk between a Kiley Rabbit and Josie Rabbit! I will be forced to snooze with rabbits!

Well, Well

Well, well, it looks like our brother's been on here. Which means he is likely in the bedroom someplace. We knew we would corner him sooner or later if we staked out the computer, and what better thing to do to pass the time while we were waiting than to work on a little craft project? Kiley Rabbit went with the human to run errands this morning, and she saw the cutest seals, done with little initials, in the wedding section of the craft store. Of course, they didn't have the color we wanted, so we're going to make our own, to go on the seed envelopes. The first batch, that should produce at least 72 seals is in the kitchen letting the glue dry now. We're going to check it out in the morning, and then hopefully get right to work on our envelopes. So, our brother is safe for the moment, but he will be working starting tomorrow. We know he's in here now, and we have rabbits watching the door and both windows. He won't escape this time!

Garden Plans

Hello, it's Bebe Bunny, here to report on our plans for the upcoming gardening season with some help from my sisters Kiley and Josie Rabbit. Now is the time to start making plans for your garden, and we're already hard at work. We've been going through the seed catalogs, and taking an inventory of what we have already. Hopefully by March, we will be ready to start the germination process. Our neighbor offered to assist with digging for the garden this year. Wasn't that so nice of her? And I'm sure the dogs who live with her are going to offer to lend a paw as well, so we need to have lots of seeds ready to go. We tried direct planting last year, but honestly, the sprouting method from the year before, using the coffee filters and the plastic bags worked better, so we plan to go back to that for this season. The top of the hot water heater is an excellent location for seed germination, in case you plan to try this yourself. We can't say enough good things about it. Our grandhuman complained terribly, though, about our seed once we moved them to the little plastic containers on the table, so we're looking for plans to make another germination location, possibly inside the dead dryer. If any fish read this blog, and are planning to upgrade your home with new lights, we would be happy to take the old ones off of your fins to use for this purpose. We're sure, with the dryer bin removed and some lights put in, that the frame will make the perfect, warm home for our seed. I'll be happy to give more details later. Tomorrow, if the snow stops and they're willing to come out, though, the polar bears will report on quilt assembly!
