Bunnies Aporch
(That's like bunnies afield, except tamer)
We finally got around to fencing in the front porch so that it would be bunny safe; the old railing that you can see has spaces wide enough for several buns to hop through.
We bought a roll of vinyl-coated wire fencing, 3' high by 50' long, at Home Depot, more than enough for the 3 sides of our 6' x 15' porch. I used nylon cable ties to fasten the fencing to the railing.
So the bunnies got their first outdoor outing in this house today. There are no pictures of Gizmo, because Gizmo sat like a lump exactly where we put him down, and wouldn't budge. Everybody else, however, seems to have enjoyed the outing, despite the toenail clipping that was done.
The pictures!

And Farfalle gets some nail-trimming too.
|
![[Farfalle on Steve's lap]](petpix/farfonlapsm.jpg) Farfalle doesn't immediately jump off of Steve's lap.
|
In fact, she sloooowly rolls off.
|
![[Domino stands there]](petpix/dominoalonesm.jpg) Domino stands still for a second.
|
Domino at the door - and notice the doormat! We've had that doormat for over 20 years now.

Farfalle hops around a bit.

![[Fern hops around]](petpix/fernhopsm.jpg) Fern gets her turn outdoors. (She doesn't get along well with other rabbits.)

Fern likes it under the glider.

Farfalle gives you a closer look at the fence from the inside.
