Good Idea: When an important relative gives you a delicate cup and saucer from Japan, display the item safely inside a curio case that has been securely fastened to the wall.
Bad Idea:

Apparently that delicate cup wasn’t so delicate after all. Also, I love the slo-mo dinosaurian roar.
Yes and yes.
Most people don’t realize that buns love to throw things and/or make noise with them. Two of my bunnehs have picked up their ceramic bowls and banged them against their cages ( enclosed at night time for their safety – before getting moveable fencing), even though they had plenty of hay. Sometimes water bowls were tipped over and pushed around. One time I had a small brass and glass shelf stand with small decor items on it and sometimes my bunnehs would throw the items off the lower shelf. They’re such loveable characters at times.
You can see the love for your bunnies in your description of the situation. Most people don’t talk about their pets throwing their possessions around willy-nilly and then follow that up with how lovable said pets are. Of course, I completely agree with your assessment. ^_^
I do love and have loved everything about my ferrets, dogs, turtles, gerbils and bunnehs. I do get annoyed with them, for a very short time, and remember that they just behave as the animals they are, unlike many hoomins. I’ve always said to my pet bebehs that I want them to feel safe and loved forever.
I’m now having visions of a 1940s prison movie with rabbits beating their tin mugs against the bars of their cells.
Oops! Sorry, Aunt Ellen…guess you’ll just have to go back to Japan…
and while Aunt Ellen is there, she can stop and get all of us Maru souvenirs.
Oh, yes, buns are very good at tossing things about and rearranging their furniture. We pass by their pen and everything looks nice and neat and 10 minutes later, total chaos. I sit nearby and things will be quiet, next thing I know there’s dashing up and down the hall and through their tube (big cardboard mold for cement – they love it) and massive chewage, scurrying and scuttling. Sometimes I can’t hear the tv with all the racket.
Murray, I couldn’t agree with you more. I often wonder why I bother picking up my bunnehs’ areas. I tell them, I would love to have someone come clean up after me, but they don’t seem to care and continue on being annoyed that I rearranged their mess. Exception, my Pepper was a bit OC, when she was younger, about her toys, when she had a cage on wheels, with a box to hop on to get into it. She had to have them arranged all in a row, under the cage, in her play area. Now that she’s older & in a fenced pen at night, she’s not so picky.
That is just it. We humans do forget that are pets are still animals no matter how well-trained they are. It is not fair to the animal that we don’t do our part to pet-proof our homes. We need to be smarter than our pets. Keep breakable and harmful things away from or protected from the animals, and certainly don’t use important items to feed your animals–even if it is just a one-time thing. We are setting ourselves and pets up for potential disaster. We really can’t be angry with the bunny if he breaks that nice gift from Japan.
This is the result of not providing enough of whatever juice that was! Good thing it is a very thick cup!! The dino roar was perfect.? I’m sure the bun would approve.?
(There needs to be a dino emoji!)
Yes please. Though it would scare me!
??
Don’t be scared. They’re vewy vewy tiny.
D’awwww!
And pretty adorable!????
HEY! How come I don’t have those emojis in MY assortment!?

Thanks so much, Allein! ?
I was so excited…until I went there and found out the dinos can’t be seen on my device, which is apparently “too old”.? But thanks for helping anyway!?
Aw, sorry. 🙁
Wonder if bun has an issue with the shape. I don’t use narrow bowls because some pets hate having to dig in and squash their whiskers.
Don’t know if buns have whisker sensitivity but at least a bigger bowl would be harder to throw.
Mine toss around their full size bowls – or at least try to. They grab them and kind of twirl them around.
Reminds me of that scene in the movie Thor when he goes “I’ll have a another!” and throws the coffee cup on the floor.
