St. Patrick's Day Newsletter - March 2006
Faith and begorra! It's almost St. Patrick's Day! Time to break out your green clothes, and celebrate being Irish!(even if you're not!) For bunnies it's time to eat lots of Lucky Clover! Did you know that there is a type of clover named Rabbit-Foot Clover? Rabbit-Foot Clover has pretty white or pale pink fuzzy flowers that resemble a rabbit's foot. Why not plant one of the many clover varieties that are available in your garden this spring? Your bunnies will be very happy to get fresh clover. Some clover sprouts in your kitchen would make a nice treat too. Our own wee lassie, Artemis, and our wee laddie, Einstein, have been making good progress with their bonding. We rarely have nipping anymore. The two of them are spending 4 - 6 hours of supervised time together each day. There still been no mutual grooming, although they will play and eat together. They also share each other's litter boxes and sleeping mats. When no one is home, and at night, they are back in their ex-pens. Hopefully, they will be fully bonded and living together in another month or two. At this point Artemis and Einstein are only allowed the run of two rooms, even though they both have impeccable litter box habits. I want to keep them confined to areas without hiding places or anywhere that a little nip could escalate without my being able to intervene. I hope to eventually have them live "free-range" like Wallace and Sophie did, with the run of the entire house and no cages or ex-pens. Keeping with our St. Patrick's Day theme, we have created a special recipe for your bunnies. Lucky Leprechaun Lagomorph Luncheon ( Serves 2 ) 2 Cups Lucky Clover Sprouts * 6 - 8 Blarney Stones ( Golden Raisins ) 2 Small outer cabbage leaves Fill cabbage leaves with Lucky Clover Sprouts and sprinkle with Blarney Stones. * May substitute Alfalfa or any other sprouts that your farmer's market may have. Bun Appetit! Please visit our website to see our newest toy, our Lucky Clover Rattle. Shamrocks and Lucky Clovers aren't just for St. Patrick's Day, our cute 3" Lucky Clover Rattle will be a hit with your wee lad or lassie all year long. http://www.funnybunnytoyco.com/catalog/item/1272197/2567868.htm Don't forget to enter our monthly drawing for a chance to win a free toy. http://www.funnybunnytoyco.com/page/page/1289078.htm Until next time, our best to you and your bunnies,
