the special ones are generally takendirectly from the butt as they are made. "generally" it'sonly the very lazy or fat who make them on the floor first and then eatthem

Oh ok. I just finally understood what you were telling me. Yes they dogenerally that. But you should still have a towel just incase they drop a few

Pepper is very cute

I don't promote towels,however I have no problems with edible items, like grass mats, aboard, or things that can not be chewed like a totally flatfloor. (I have seen way to many blockages to be comfortablewith saying use a towel) While granted I know people have buns who doawesome with them I personally feel it can berisky.

You are correct it is a small cat/dog bed.I got it at Petsmartand told my husband we had to buy that for Pepper,so he be morecomfortable sleeping in his cage.We also use it in his pet carrier,whenwe take him in the car to go somewhere,like when we take him to the vetto get his nails clipped.He is so good in the car,he just lays down inhis pet carrier.Also,we take him to petsmart,when we go to buy hisstuff.They let people bring their pets in the store.Do you have apetsmart in your area?

Yup, we've got petsmart, petco, petgoods lol toomany stores with pet in front I've seen one on a website, Iforget what it is called, but its bascially the same as a smallerversion of a dog/cat bed only sized down to rabbit size but thedimensions weren't really that big I think it was somethinglike 12" long by 10" wide by 5.5" high. I was thinking about getting itfor my bunny but I don't think its big enough for her to stretch out inlol

Tucker loves his bed. Santa got him afaux fur (fake fur) bed for Xmas and he grooms it andlovesit. I'm sure any doe would fall instantly in love with him,especially after seeing his bachelor pad.

LOL! I saw one of those at PetSmart when we went lastweek and considered getting one for Sherman.

Tucker really lives the high life!

I got a little one for Bugaboo but her fat buttedmate who barely fits in it shoves her out so he can be in it and smashdown the side and she sits in the cardboard box. He is an overwieghtHolland Lop and they are the sweetest couple in the world. Deucy theHolland was put in our house while we were away by our pet sitterbecasue he was being mistreated in another home. Bugaboo is a very sadstory in so many ways. I will do a new post for that

Can you say spoiled? And my parents say my boys arespoiled! Well I got an absolutely adorable picture of Mocha in his"bed". He's more of a rough type, preferring a box of dirt over a fauxfur bed. He had his feet hanging over the edge of the box and was layinon his back and his front paws were out front.. it's hilarious, onlyset back is that it's on the old film camera and we need to use up theroll first, which I will in BC this week. So you will just have to waitto laugh at my little man. But if Mocha askes, it was a manly orhansomepicture not cute! lol.

P.S.- Oh ya! I'm sure it's a mixture offake and real fur by now, with the amazing amount of shedding ourlittle bunnies do!

A friend of mine made Do-do man a tent out ofpeter rabbit flannel material and used cardborad inside it tokeep its shape. He loves it and sleeps in it with his bum sticking outthe back. It also is used as a tunnel when he runs the bunny 500 eachday
