Our tv cabinet has wooden boards which were made to fit nicely into each slot, keeping all wires safely hidden behind the cabinet & away from the bunnies’ reach. In the lower right slot, there’s an extra extension cord in case we need to plug in other devices.
The other day, we needed the power supply temporarily so instead of going behind the tv cabinet which would have been a lot of hassle, we just plugged the device in through the front. Buttons, ever the alert, observant bun, hopped over in the blink of an eye:
Stern warnings to leave the wire alone were issued. Buttons quickly turned her eyes away, as though she hadn’t even noticed the wire. But those curious ears give away her intentions:
The she pulled her innocent face:
And tried to throw us off her tracks by pretending to focus her attention elsewhere:
What an actress! Well, we were not falling for all that. Trust no bun, no matter how innocent or nonchalant she looks.
Anyways, we managed to keep the wire safe from Buttons for many days. We’d unplug it whenever we weren’t in the room using it. But one fateful day, P forgot. He stepped out for a short while and and came home to this:
Buttons had accomplished her latest mission! Although she wasn’t caught red-pawed and it could very well have been Yohji, Buttons remains the prime suspect. She’s usually the mastermind behind all massacre of household items. Luckily no bun got hurt chewing on this wire!
On a separate note, I think I may be getting better at giving sub-q injections. The last 2 injections I gave Hans went fairly smoothly. The resistance I felt previously could have been because I didn’t push the needle in deep enough, beyond the layer of skin. For the last 2 injections, I made sure I pushed the needle in a little further and it was a breeze getting the meds into Hans 
Hans prays for a speedy eradication of the abscess, and an end to all these prodding and poking!

Yes trust no bun when comes to holes, missing or destruction
Must supervise if not havoc…. my new Dashy is doing that to my whole dining area…. she just ripped off all my yellow pages this morning…
then pretending innocent lying under the dining table – indirectly saying – not me.
so are bun good in pretending innocent?
the 3rd photo of buttons is cute – she sorts like eh.. what you doing… nice shot
For Hans – good that you manage to find the right spot to inject the anti-biotic for him. He will sure be fine
Poor Hans – so young get poke …
That Buttons, she is wiley one……let no cord go unchomped. Congratulations on your injection skills, We will join Hans in his prayer. OM…dentitia abscessium..eradicummmmmm OMMMMM
(repeat 100 times).
Glad you’re gettign better at the injections, wishing Hans a speedy and full recovery. Buttons is naughty isn’t she?
NIC grids. If it’s something I can’t rewire myself (and you’d be amazed at the things I’ve learnt to rewire since becoming a bunny Mom..) it goes behind NIC grids. My TV stand currently has a baby gate propped in front of it for ease of access for me and loud noise it makes if Sage tries to go for a wire-root snack..
Buttons reminds me a lot of Sir Harvey… he used to be the boss of chomped off cords, luckily always unplugged (apart from the phone cord, but that’s another story!). Maybe it is the ginger colour?? One day I will tell you the story of my Scottish bunny…
Congratulations on your new job as bunny nurse – we’re all cheering for Hans that the injections do their job and the abscess disappears away to never come back!
I just chomped to pieces my Uncle’s earphones. Hah, he left it on the floor! He was asking for it.
Mommy scolded me though. maybe chomping wires is bad.
Oh Buttons… how could you?
So much like Betsy, our resident cord-chomper. Though it’s more fun if the cords are hard to get to – and even more fun (apparently?) if they are “live.” How Betsy has managed to chew through so many live electrical cords and not get electrocuted yet is beyond me.
Be careful, Buttons!
Heh… Buttons I know how you feel. Chewing wires it he best! Good job on doing it when no one was looking!
Hans: both Gus and I wish you a speedy recovery – nobunny likes being poked, so we hope you get better soon!!
Haha! I’ve always wondered how you manage to have 2 bunnies roam freely in your apartment without having anything major & dangerous being chewed, e.g. an electrical cord.
I really like seeing Buttons’ ears change position, especially when they shape like a V, makes her look more innocent. So cheeky!
Where do you inject Hans’ medicine into, his abscess?
It’s not easy keeping everything out of their reach, that’s for sure lol! If we even let our attention slide for a minute, they’re there to make the best of it!
Hans is getting his injections at his flanks. I alternate between the left and right flank, to prevent the skin from hardening and forming sterile abscesses. It happens sometimes when penicillin injections are given frequently at the same spot.
Good job, Buttons, but be careful!
I’m thumping for you Hans, that all those injections are over soon!
Oopsssss Who did it ….. LOL
Be careful
hugs to all

The innocent face is SO cute! Oh, the life of a bunny-owner. It is amazing how they hone in on chewables!
mmmMMMmmmm electrical cords – Yummo! ~Fiona Bun
No tell tale “burn” marks on the front teeth? Buns will be buns it seems. I’m glad Buttons is still good to go. She deserves a Buncademy Award.
The Bunns don’t believe those are rabbit teeth marks. They suspect a cat!
Yes, when we gave all the sub-qs it took a bit of a push to go thru the skin … we pinched and held the skin well away from the body …
Doing well!
Trust no bun!
I wrapped all the cords with spiral wire-protector! But somehow, the bunns still manage do destroy my Play Station’s joystick cable, LOL! And my prime suspect is Shiro bcoz he’s the only bunn occupy the living area
Get well soon, Hans! All the way to speed recovery!~
the innocent face! one of my favorites, it’s so innocent though it’s nothing shy of a straight out confession. i like the innocent face with the ‘framing’ ear. like when a bunny stands up with the innocent face and to let you know they are way too cute to cause damage of any kind and looks at you with the look of “i didn’t do it, but if you see where my ear is pointing you might know who did, but don’t say i told you anything?” also another confession in my mind.
oh poor hans!! i can’t imagine giving a shot….good for you for being so brave, and of course the vet was out of town, it always happens like that! looks like we got some bunnies in need of all sorts of prayers….sending them your way sweet one, hopefully soon we’ll all be feeling better!!!
Naughty, naughty, naughty. Ok… her innocent face had me laughing so hard!! Hilarious!
Glad things are going well giving Hans the injections. I think that would be so scary. I hope the medicine is working. Sending him some snuggles.
