  *thump*!

  The nurse cackled.

  Mom just kept talking to the nurse and didn’t try to help Daddy at all!

  Cola crept towards the bags she had brought with her. What other torture devices did she have in there?

  Cola ran back to where Duster was and thumped again.

  “Get away from my Daddy!”

  Mom reached down from her chair and petted her. “It’s OK, Cola.”

  “OK?” Cola shook her head. “It’s not OK! Some stranger is choking my Daddy’s arm and all you can do is sit here and laugh with her!”

  Poor Daddy was so weak from his arm being choked all he could do was sit there and listen to Mom and the nurse.

  Duster wasn’t much help either! He was stretched out behind Mom’s chair, napping!

  The nurse finally took the choking device off Daddy’s arm and Daddy seemed to be alright, he was probably in shock from the trauma. She said everything was good and thankfully she left shortly afterwards.

  Daddy recovered enough to pick Cola up and pet her and let her know he was OK.

  Cola's poor Daddy – good thing he has Cola as his bunny bodyguard!

  MAYBE SHE DOES IT ON PURPOSE

  Cola is litter trained. She knows how to use a litter box.

  She just prefers to NOT use the litter box in her cage when she poops!

  Since she wasn’t using the litter box in her cage (she would poop everywhere BUT the litter box) Mommy and Daddy took the litter box out and would just put her bedding on the bottom of the cage in the place where her litter box used to be. No issues at all for Cola – she'd use the bedding when she needed to.

  Then she would venture next door to Duster’s cage. She always like to sample his food and water and hay … sometimes it just tastes better.

  And then Cola would hop into his litter box and poop! There were times when she would poop on the floor of his cage too. Mommy always cleaned it up anyways. But for the most part, Cola loved using Duster’s litter box! And Duster never complained … he loves it when his lady comes to visit him!

  However, this whole litter box use and non-use really confused Cola's Mommy and Daddy!

  Anyways, they put a litter box back in her cage a few weeks ago and she poops in it when she feels like it. Last night, for example she did … you'd think Cola had won the lottery! Mommy and Daddy were telling her how good she is and petting her and she even got a raisin!

  But then this morning Mommy got up and saw the poop beside the litter box … “oh well, you win some and you lose some,” she said and Cola still got her bunny breakfast and her before-work noserubs.

  COLA PUTS HER FOOT DOWN

  Sometimes Daddy makes Cola mad!

  Duster and Cola were in for their bunny sleepover, Mom and Dad were drifting off, Duster was cuddled up near the dresser and Cola decided she didn’t particularly like where a piece of carpet was so she decided to do some redecorating …

  She planted my little paws firmly on the carpet, secured a mouthful of carpet fibres and “pull!”

  Mommy and Daddy both woke up.

  “COLA BEAR!” Daddy said, she knew he was mad when he used both her names and he said it in capitals just like it's written.

  Cola turned around to look at him, not sure what the issue was.

  “No chewing on the carpet!” Daddy told her.

  “Why not? It’s in the wrong spot! I don’t like it there!” she argued.

  Daddy laid back down and turned his back to her.

  Was he ignoring her? WHAT?

  Cola can play that game.

  She hopped out of the bedroom, and thumped when she got to the living room.

  She showed Daddy.

  Time to put some salt in the wound.

  Cola waited about 10 minutes and hopped back in to the bedroom and then she cuddled up to Mommy’s side of the bed!

  “I love you now, Mommy,” Cola told her.

  Duster shook his head in disbelief … he knows she a Daddy’s girl.

  “Daddy made me mad. I love Mommy,” Cola declared.

  Duster sighed and flopped over in between Mommy and Daddy’s pillows.
