Mabel and Dijon, as you know, have been a little too hot recently, but
at last they have managed to review the Supreme Russel Rabbit Food
Complete Muesli (£1.99 from monsterpetsupplies.co.uk).They decided the best way to undertake this task was take equal amounts of Russel Rabbit and their regular treats, put them on the floor, and see which they preferred. Whichever they ate first would be the preferred food. So we took one of each type of treat from Russel Rabbit and the generic muesli, and let the bunnies go for it.
Mabel caught whiff of the smell of the food as it was being laid out, and was eager to get going, yet it was Dijon who reached the food first, and he instantly started munching on his regular treats. When Mabel hopped over, she took a quick look at what Dijon was eating before turning to Russel Rabbit which she seemed to very much enjoy. Once his pile had been consumed, Dijon joined in with Mabel.
Mable on a Mission
28/07/2013
It's a bit cooler here now - it was around 32C last week. Dijon doesn't
enjoy the heat - he's such a muscular bloke of a bun, but Mabel
doesn't seem to mind. She's very slight in build, and we think she
feels the cold in winter, so has been happy with the sunshine.
She's always appeared to be such a good, quiet, timid little thing... until recently. In the evening, the buns are allowed into 'our' side of the living room. My husband sits on the sofa, and I sit on the armchair... yes, the buns have driven a wedge between us, as Dijon demands his cuddles at the side of the armchair. Not so long ago, Mabel discovered the sofa, and then she discovered that, if she hopped across my husband and onto that arm, she could reach the telephone table.
So now she is on a mission. Every evening, she develops a crazed look in her eyes, and sits by the sofa on her haunches, ready for take-off. Just when she looks ready to leap, she usually races off, doing a couple of laps of the living room, complete with mad binkies, then skids to a halt by the sofa, on her hind legs, front paws dangling.
Then thump and leap, a bit like a paso doble, she springs vertically, lands on the cushion, and usually sets about scrabbling husband's arm and side to move him. He tickles her, she springs down, and the whole process starts again!
Meanwhile, Dijon sits looking either confused or scared!

Review: Russel Rabbit Complete Muesli

Mabel says: my
old treats smelled old and stale in comparison to the offering from
Russel Rabbit. In particular, the orange coloured pieces were very
tasty. The browner the pieces, the less tasty they were, but I did like
it all. I’ll give it a rating of 5/5.
Owners’ comments: As Dijon says, he doesn’t care what he eats; he is a relentless easting machine. Mabel is a much pickier eater, so for her to eat every sample piece of muesli is a good sign. At £1.99 for 850g it is good value. We rate it as 4/5.

Supreme Russel Rabbit Food Complete Muesli is available from Monster Pet Supplies for as little as £1.99
Remember, rabbits’ main food source should be long grass/hay. This type of food should be given sparingly and only as a treat. Try sprinkling a pinch or two around their living area to encourage the natural instinct to forage.
