The Queen

Millie is settling in nicely. She has been exploring and investigating things. I am not sure if we meet with her approval. Its doubtful.

I didnt block Haven off last night, just sat by him and we watched her antics around the room. She promptly started hoggin up his leftovers. Look at his face.....What do you think he is thinking about her boldness?


Happy Mother's Day to all those great Moms out there.

Do Rabbits Have Lips?

Millie certainly looks like she does.







Meet Millie: the newest addition to the bun household. My darling girl holds a very special spot in my heart. For those of you who visit Heartland's blog you may have seen her before. She has been at Heartland between 5 and 6 years until she came to live with us today.






My first day at Heartland I brought banana's for the bunnies. I reached in Millie's house to give her a piece and she promptly ripped my thumb open. I sent her a mental message right then: " You and I are gonna be good friends girl"




Quick background on Millie: She was found many years ago abandoned in a parking lot, while freezing rain was coming down. She was in a cardboard box with a broken back leg. Suspiciously, a daycare sat close by. My girl was cold, shivering and in terrible pain. Jeannie (that's our director at Heartland and bun champion) scooped her up and got her to a vet. After a delicate surgery to pin her leg and many cast changes her leg healed very nicely. Now, can you blame her for biting me?



Millie developed a very slight head tilt last year. Quick treatment cleared it right up. She is a beautiful bun and has settled down quite a bit. I look forward to spending time with her and spoiling her rotten.



Haven is not to happy with her being in his room. He stared at her balefully from across the carpet this morning and thumped thumped thumped. Its okay Haven baby, it will be a while before you meet her face to face and no baby, she will not steal your green yummies.
Say Hello to Millie AKA Millie Mouse, AKA Nilla Bean.

No really Mother, its fine. THEY ARE ONLY 700 THREAD COUNT!



My mother is an excellent bunny grandma and a very good bunsitter. I came home from work Saturday morning and snuggled beside Haven for our lovin time. I thought the pillowcase felt unusually soft. I flipped on the big light and discovered that in my absence my mother made Haven a pillow from my 700 thread count sheet set. Really Mother? I only have a zillion trillion pillowcases and you go and pick the one from the only sheet set that cost a small fortune and are my absolute favorite?


Mother: " Sorry, I didnt realize, let me grab it and put it in the wash."

Dumbfounded daughter stares at mother intently........

Dumbfounded Daughter: "Uh, its okay, he can have it"



Stay tuned, there will be a new bun in town very soon. Her introduction in the bun household will be posted shortly.

Where does the time go?


My good friend's son is graduating from college today. I have known him since he was 8 years old. I cant believe how fast the time has flown. This is the last time we were all together. They were having a murder mystery dinner party. I am standing up in the white. No, I do not dress like that, it was for the party and my hair is blond not dark. We had a great time that night and the wine did flow.......
