BUILDING PROJECT & NEW MEMBER OF THE FAMILY!

  Well everyone, I've had a very exciting weekend! When my mom picked me up from my friends awesome birthday party, she told me that my dad was at Lowes getting building supplies! So I automatically knew that we were getting more pets!! So after we got home from shopping at Lowes we started building an add- on to our rabbit hutch!! I was so excited!! My dad built another rabbit hutch/chicken coop!! Here is a pic of the finished product!

After we got done building, the next day we went to my uncles farm to pick out a new baby bunny!! I ended up picking this little guy!!

I decided to name him Dusty! He has this beautiful brown/gray color! He is so adorable!! I am so glad that my "Mini zoo" is growing! I just love spending time with ALL my pets! I know that Dusty will feel right at home! We will also be purchasing some chickens soon!! I am so excited!!

I'M BACK!

 Well hello everyone! I'm super sorry for not posting lately! I've been really busy! The sad thing is school is starting back up!:( I'm really bummed! That means less time with my pets! I wish Summer never ended! Anyways, my pets have been trying to avoid the dreadful heat! I've been having to put frozen water bottles in the rabbits cages! Gunner has been diving in his little kiddy pool we bought! Jake just hates potty time, because that means he has to go outside! Sammy and Jolly don't even know it's hot outside.:) Lily just LOVES the heat! Boy, she has just had a blast with this heat! Me, personally, I hate the heat! It has been dreadful! Other than the heat, the animals have been doing good!;) I  will post again Saturday, because tomorrow I am going to my best friends birthday party! So post ya later!:)

OH NO! POWER OUTAGE!

Well everyone, when I woke up around 5:40 I noticed that the power was out! So I automatically thought .......OH NO! LILY!! Reptiles need extreme heat, and I figured a reptile without heat is not a happy reptile! I started getting scared of course! So I had to come up with some "creative" ideas to keep her warm! The first thing I obviously did was hold her. Well considering leopard geckos can't make their own heat, I figured it was a smart idea to "let her borrow some of mine." After I held her I realized it was going to be a while before the power came back on! So I had to come up with more ideas! The 2nd thing I did was breathe warm air into her humid hide to get it humid again. Turns out, she didn't even go in there! So that plan was ruined! So I ripped a small blanket and started breathing warm air into it and rubbing it so it would get warm. Then I put it under her den so the heat would stay in it! Sure enough she went in there! Well if you were wondering, she survived the 3 hours the power had been off! YEAH! I was pretty proud of my ideas! And pretty happy she survived!!

DAISY HAVING FUN IN THE SUN!

   Well I recently let Daisy run outside, but don't worry she was fenced in! Anyways, she absolutley loved it! She would pounce around and stand on her hind legs! It was so cute and funny at the same time! I think she loves getting fresh air outside, even though she lives outside! Well here is an adorable pic of my girl Daisy! ENJOY!!



In this pic, Daisy is pouncing around!!



A DAY WITH GUNNER!





   Well hello everyone! Today's post is going to be about my Labrador Retreiver, Gunner. As I said in my very first post, Gunner is VERY energetic! He runs around all over the place, and chews on all sorts of things! You can never know for sure what he is doing! There is NEVER a dull moment with this pup!! He always has something he wants to do! Whether thats ransack the yard or chase bunnies, or even howl at random stuff! Anyways, here is a photo of this wild dog!! ENJOY!!





Here he is chewing on some random item!!

WELCOME WILD BUNNIES!

   Well for about a year or so now we have had wild rabbits living ALL around our house! Last year they were actually having their babies here!! So we were super excited to see baby bunnies hopping around! This year they had more babies!! So I got some great photos of the babies eating in our front yard! Well they aren't great, but good for pictures of wild rabbits! ENJOY!!

They were munchin' away!!



They are SOO cute!!

   The funny thing is, every morning the babies all come out and play! They hop around and chase eachother!! It is the funniest thing to witness!! They also all come out in the evening and munch on grass. Hope you enjoyed the photos!!

SAMMY'S STORY!

   Today my post is going to be about my cockatiel, Sammy. We got Sammy from a local Harps. Well one day my mom took me to Harps, and we went to the back where the birds were. We came up to the cockatiel cage and thats when we saw Sammy. She would go up to other birds and sing, but they would bite at her! I felt horrible to see that poor little bird get bit at just for singing!! My mom felt bad too! So my mom sad "I think we need to buy her." So when we got home and got Sammy's cage together we put her in there. I believe that she liked it and still does! The really sad thing is that she was bullied so much that she doesn't trust us! Every time you get near her she hisses! It's not because of meaness, it's because she was bullied so much. I am glad that we rescued her. She is a very beautiful bird! We love her very much!

She truly is a beautiful bird!

OREO MEETS JAKE!

It was really funny to see how they acted around each other! Well first we got our bunny pen out so we could put Oreo in it. Then we brought Jake out and put him next to the bunny pen. It was adorable! Enjoy some pics!!

HOT DAYS!

  Well here in Indiana we are getting some VERY hot days! All the animals are bummed that it is so hot outside. The bunnies and Gunner especially hate it because they live outside. I don't think Lily minds that much though! She is a desert animal so that tells you why! Jake does not like heat AT ALL! So he has been super bummed. The highest its been this week was 107 degrees!! I'm not liking it either!



"I don't like this heat momma!"
