harvey Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 I read that the photos don't have to be bird related in here so I thought I'd put the rest of the family up. We have two house Rabbits called Jasper and Magic and a Chipmunk called Blitzen. We're not really into the normal pet thing of Cats and Dogs, lovely as they are. I'd probably have a Pig if Clare would let me Here is Jasper (left) and Magic (right) Here is Blitzen, sorry it's a little blurred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeatherStrella Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Very cute animals! The chipmunk is especially cute...is s/he tame? What's s/he like as a pet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvey Posted October 18, 2008 Author Share Posted October 18, 2008 The bunnies and Chipmunk have their own room. The bunnies have the run of the floor. They can be potty trained the same way as a Cat is, with a litter tray. They don't always get it right but they do try Chipmunks vary, some are very friendly and can be handled, some are less so but they are fun to watch as they play. I can handle Blitzen but she is very fast All they need really is a nice tall cage and if you let them out then something to climb up, curtains are popular. Feed wise I give mine Chipmunk mix, Nuts and fruit/Veg. I'll have to get a vid uploaded of her playing.

judygram Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Oh please do, I would love to see the little bugger in action if he is as fast as you say he is.:blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaxtersMom Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 OMG! Those are all so adorable. So cuddly looking. It looks like the bunnies are holding ears instead of holding hands:) And I want the chipmunk really bad:woohoo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Do the bunnies do everything in unison, I see they have the same stance with the same foot held up like they are a mirror copy of each other? They are so cute:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvey Posted October 18, 2008 Author Share Posted October 18, 2008 They are brothers so they are very close. They cuddle up together, destroy their cardboard box house together. If one has to go to the vet then they both go because we don't want their bond to be broken and it could be if they were to spend a night apart. We were only meant to have Jasper, but when we went to pick him up the breeder told us that Magic's new owner couldn't make it, (They didn't think their car could make the journey) so after a couple of minutes of shall we shan't we it was decided we'd take him too . He was called Magic because he was supposed to be picked up by a magician and be part of his show! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trustdace Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 Excellent videos. Blitzen is awesome. He reminds me of a pet sugar glider I had before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
