Hi there from both of us!
It was a very snuggly night last night. We had just come home from dinner a short time before, and I was sitting at the computer planning on a long night of doing nothing, when The Boy appeared in the doorway...and he was holding a familiar orange puffball.
Me: What are you doing with Mick?
Him: I'm bored. This is how bored I am; I'm so bored, I'll even let the rabbit shed on me.
Me: I didn't hear any commotion. You mean he actually let you pick him up out of his cage?
Him: Yep. Do I have his feet right?
Me: Yes. I need to take a picture of this.
Him: No. No pictures.
Me: Dang!
Apparently His Majesty was caught completely off-guard by this maneuver, and was sitting completely still in my son's arms, a very confused look on his face. I made sure he was being held properly, and then went to change into an old shirt in case things changed. Sure enough, after a while, Mick started to fidget a little and The Boy got bored with holding him, so I took over and brought Mick into the living room so I could sit down on the couch and watch boxing. His Majesty promptly snuggled up against my neck and fell asleep, waking up for brief moments to reassure me that he was not at all sleepy with a few kisses and toothpurrs before falling asleep again. The Boy took some pictures of us for me, and this was the best of the bunch. All in all, Mick spent a little over three hours parked on my chest getting pets, ear massages, butt-scritchings and tummy rubs, and I got toothpurrs, kisses and a fur coating from neck to navel in return. Didn't even have to bribe him with a hay cookie, either.

I wish either of mine were half as cuddly! The Landy Maude is also in full shedding mode. It's just gawdawful.
how sweet!
Sweet Orange Puffball. I knew you were hard on the outside and all squishy in the middle, Mick.
Awww, such sweet mummy cuddles! :-)
hehehe thats ok Mick I love my mummy cuddles too!xx Speedy
P.S Racer is on his way..he's sailing to my place we might have to go and rescue him!
Mick, your fur is fabulous! And, Mick's Mom, your skin is just gorgeous! Those boys never cease to amaze us! All boys, bunners and two foots, have a soft side when nobody's got a camera ...
(Psst... Speedy, has Racer arrived yet? I was a little concerned, as he didn't look like he had a good grasp on controlling his parasail!)
There goes the old reputation Mick. Did someone say Racer sailed by?
RG ... no mention on Racer on Speedy's blog yet. I left a note to let us know if anyone hears from him! I'm getting worried...
Mick is secure enough in his bunnitude that his rep can weather a few snurglings ...
goodness me! 3 hours!! you are Blessed indeed! I am darn lucky to get a full 3 minutes with my puff ball :)
you both look 'at home', it's a wonderful photo!
What a lovely photo! You are so lucky. Mario will tolerate pets for years on the floor but he is not a lap bunny. He cooperates well enough but I can tell he would rather be on the floor.
I think that was a most perfect "non-boring" evening. :)
Nothing much better than snuggling with a bun
