Buttons makes a thump

Our little bundle of joy had not been out of his cage for about two days, really it just comes down to the fact we have been too tired to let him out.

In reality he is not such a bad bunny but sometimes he is a bit mischievous so we need to make sure we keep an eye out at all times when he is roaming around his little kingdom (the living room). Last night he was not running and jumping as much as he normally would be doing, which felt a bit strange for him as he loves to run and jump all over the room and on Nadia when she tries to watch TV.

So last night when he jumped onto the sofa I expected him to sit there for a while and clean himself as usual but instead he stood very still and before you knew it a loud thump was heard. I looked at him and he did it again and again for a few minutes. Now we all have seen the movie Bambi and remember Thumper the rabbit, but I thought the notion of thumping was only done in the film - apparently this was not the case. 

I found it cute as his thump just brought some attention to him while he was doing it and also the way he does it was cute too. Instead of like in the film where Thumper would just move one of his back legs to make the noise, Buttons makes a little jump with his back legs and lands on his big bum to make the thump.

This only lasted for about 2 minutes before he was laying down in his favourite spot which is the little table in-between the two sofas in the living room.
