Nibbles And A New Friend

As many of my Instagram followers may know, Nibbles had a play date with my friend's rabbit called Lola. She is a year old and is quite small. As Nibbles and Lola are not desexed yet, we had to keep them separate, so I guess it wasn't much of a "play date."

On the 23rd of December, Nibbles will be having a "play date" for around two weeks as Lola's owner (my friend) and her family will be travelling overseas. Neither me nor Nibbles have ever had another rabbit stay over for a night let alone two weeks! But I am thrilled to take care of another rabbit, as I have only ever had one rabbit, Nibbles. I have wished to have another rabbit so Nibbles wouldn't be lonely and would be able to learn how to share and have the enjoyment of playing with another rabbit.

I can't wait to take care of Lola and Nibbles, it will be an adventure and a challenge with the two of them together as Nibbles is a crazy bunny who loves to adventure everywhere, and Lola is very quick and can get into small spaces. So who knows what those crazy bunnies will get up to in two weeks.

I'll be sure to write another blog post on what antics they get up to and how I will keep them cool and hydrated throughout this summer heat. Let me know in the comments below if you would like to know more about Lola. There will also be another blog post on what they get for christmas! (if their good bunnies that is...)

Homemade Christmas Cookies

Want help with training your rabbit? Christmas cookies are the answer! Nibbles loves these cookies, at first he was a bit sceptical (because they're a bit to dry for 'Nibbles's liking') but after a bite he really enjoyed the treat and lets just say he didn't just want one cookie.

I've made these before, but I had to recreate them as I may have burnt them in the previous attempt, so watch the oven frequently when baking these! You can also give these to your guinea pigs, as rabbits and guinea pigs share the same pellets.

Recipe

You will need

1/2 A cup of pellets

1/4 Of a cup of oats

One banana

Half a carrot

Pre heat oven to 200°C

Blend the oats in a blender till it is a fine powder. Blend the pellets or crush them using a plastic bag and a rolling pin. Mash the banana and blend up the carrot so it is in very thin slices. Once done mix the banana, the carrot, the oats and the pellets together. After mixing let it sit for around 10 minutes, then see if you need to add some water if the mixture does not hold together. 

Grab a baking tray and line it with tin foil. Use a rolling pin to flatten the mixture so that it is roughly 1cm thick, then cut it into which ever shapes you would like, it doesn't necessarily have to be Christmas themed, use any cookie cutter shapes you have available to you.

Pop them in the oven and bake at 200°C for 20-30 minutes. Slide the cookies onto a rack for them to cool off for 1-2 hours, when done give one to your rabbit or guinea pig!

But don't forget this is a treat and not an everyday food, so mainly give one a day. I hope your guinea pig or rabbit enjoys it, as Nibbles absolutely loves these!

Little Rabbit Nibbles

LITTLE RABBIT NIBBLES

Hi, this is the life of Nibbles the rabbit. Nibbles has a Instagram account which has grown in popularity these past months and I seem to be writing/captioning his photos and videos with his fun/crazy adventures and well basically, what Nibbles gets up to on a daily basis. So it got me thinking because most people on Instagram don't read my enormous paragraphs about nibbles day and what he seems to really enjoy, I decided to make a blog and see what happens. So if you would like me to rate or review an item which Nibbles has tried, or share a food recipe which is rabbit friendly let me know. :)

Nibbles has been on Instagram for around a year or two now, it has been very slow pace (in terms of followers and likes) but recently the accounts followers have gotten into the thousands! which I am so grateful for and would have never imagined, thank you so much. xx
