Lupin and Juniper have become partners in crime.Poor little Willow is such a sweet, innocent bun, while the other twoare just sooo naughty!
I've still not installed a baby gate to block off the living room fromthe hallway where the babies live. Instead, I've been using a singlemattress on its side, so it's about a meter (maybe more) high. I usedto have a coffee table on the bunny side of it supporting it, andDandelion never tried to jump out. While I was sitting in the livingroom wrapping presents, I looked up and there was Juniper sat on thetop of the mattress! I picked her up and put her down, andshe didn't go back up.
I woke up the other morning, and Lupin was missing. I found her in theliving room, under the couch. After chasing her around for 40 minutes,I finally managed to catch her and put her back.
Last night when I got home at about 2am, I was greeted by Junipersitting on my sofa! I've got suede sofas, so I really don't want themon the ones that don't have covers on! Lupin, too, was out, and underthe couch. I don't know what Juniper had been doing but her face iscompletely black! She's really, really mucky!
I can't seem to keep them in >.< The living room is not agood place for them to be; there are cables for the TV and surroundsound system, yesterday they managed to knock and glass and a vase offa table (the latter smashed, too! Thank goodness they weren't hurt!!),I have Sculpey in the room (which had teeth marks in it!), and there'sgoodness knows what else, but it is NOT a bunny safe environment! Theonly problem is that I can't get a gate made for about a week at least,because the country's on holiday from now until the 6th (Eid and NewYear and something else; if a public holiday like Eid falls on aweekend, then the Government declare a holiday for the next one-twodays of the working week), and I didn't get a chance to cash mypaycheck >.<
The mattress is now on the other side of the entrance, where it doesn'thave anything near it that the buns can jump onto to get on top of it,yet they're still managing to get out somehow! I've checked it allover, and there's no way they can do it unless they're jumping straightup onto the top of it, in which case, I won't be able to keep them ineven /with/ a baby gate!
Argh! Anyone got any advice? (Other than installing a door! Do youthink if I put a baby gate and a bead curtain it might stop them?

Juniper's not so bad as she's generally quite easy to catch, butthis morning when I woke up and found them both out, I had a nastysurprise - when they moved, there was a big patch of blood on thefloor!
