Lulu’s
diary
Meet Lulu, our mischievous little bunny.
Each issue she will share with you her
adventures with the Bunny Mad! family.
June
I have finally realised that when
Mum tries to give me head rubs it’s not
a game and time for me to run away…
it’s actually quite nice! Mum says I’m
hyperactive and that I will enjoy things
more if I just calmed down a little. So
just for her we are having daily strokes
and quiet time. I can’t help myself
sometimes though, when Mum gets in
my way when I’m trying to have a run
around. So I find the best way to get
her to budge is to nip her ankles or
give them a good digging… much to
her dislike, but it does work.
It’s been really hot but Mum is
always prepared and we have had our
fans on and our icepods. When we go
outside Mum makes us some shade
and I just love it when she hangs up
the big blanket as I love to play with it
and pull it down so I can make tunnels
in it and hide.
July
Dad is still busy working on our house
but it’s almost finished… didn’t he say
that before?! Mum said I have my own
4
dog (bunny) flap so I will be able to let
myself in and out but I will have to
learn how to use it but you know me,
I’m the clever one and can figure
anything out with the help of a treat or
two.
Milly has learnt a new trick. If she
scratches on her door long enough,
Mum will bring her a treat. If Mum
doesn’t come quick enough you can
see Milly peaking from behind the
door looking very annoyed! Mum
can’t help but laugh!
Mum has been a bit fed up as she
was hoping to be working from home
full time by now, but the sale of the
family shop fell through after the
buyers tried to scam them. Poor Mum,
she had been busy helping them out,
only to be treated so badly. Wish I
could get my little paws on them. But
she won’t let them win and is hoping
they may have another buyer soon. We
just want our Mum home and happy.
We have had another visitor, this
time a racing pigeon. He was waiting
for Mum one day outside the front
door. Mum knows a bit about racing
pigeons as she grew up with them, so
she thought he must be exhausted and
got him some much needed food and
water. The next few days he continued
to visit until one day he didn't. Mum
and Dad thought he must have flown
home when Dad got a bit of shock one
morning when he was greeted by him
at the window. He was sat on the
windowsill looking at Dad as if to say
“Where’s my breakfast?!” Dad was
over the moon and quickly got him
some food. It’s been a week now and
the pigeon… now named Lenny by
Dad, is still here and doesn’t look like
he’s about to leave anytime soon. He
has a ring on that tells us that he is
from the Netherlands, but they haven't
been able to pick him up to have a
look at his wings for an address stamp
to say who he belongs to. But for now
we are happy to take care of him.
August
Mum is so excited… today she finally
finished at her job after the family
business was sold, yay!
Even better news is that our bunny
house is ready for us to move in! I
don’t know who is more excited, Mum
or us? She has always wished we
could live indoors but because of
Dad’s allergies this has never been
possible. So Mum wanted to make a
space that would bring the indoors,
outside. I think she has done a pretty
good job of that. Whoever sees it can’t
believe it’s a house for bunnies and
not humans!
She has bought us so much stuff
and everything is new. We just have to
wait for our bunny furniture to arrive
from Manor Pet Housing for our run
areas and Dad has promised me he is
going to build me a sand pit, as I’ve
heard so many bunnies say how much
fun they are. We feel very privileged
as not all bunnies are us lucky as us!
