A few little somethings I mentioned in the Blab:
- The Massachusetts House Rabbit Society -- I know I'm biased now, but my twins are seriously good-looking bunnies. The MA HRS had a postcard section a few years back and had my girls up there for about 2 years after I adopted them. If you ask me, it's because they're so picturesque. One of the gems of the site now is the reader-submitted tips. Although you can spend some time taking the surveys on the homepage, too.
- In my discussion of bunny cages, I cited Leith Petwerks, the "makers of the Bunny Abode House Rabbit Condo and purveyor of house rabbit accessories." They do have a wicked good condo selection -- sturdy, roomy, multi-levelled. So if you'd rather buy than make -- and who could blame you?! -- I'd suggest Leith.
- Paul made me promise to post a pic of the condo I made, so here's a good one:
The rare Pea-in-the-condo shot
And here's Pea's cage, which, at one time, each of my 5 kids could call their own: - Just a reminder to email me your stories about toys you've made yourself for your pets (doesn't have to be only bunnies).

When Pea was a younger and smaller, that bottom cage was hers, yes... And trust me, it was perfectly big enough for her. She loved it. Hung out in there when she didn't have to, is how I know.
Also, please consider that post that you commented on is 2.5 years old... She's in the 4' x 4' cage now, but only at nights. They all have free roam.
Thanks for your concern, but my bunnies are not cramped up at any time of the day.
I find it amusing that you said I had to contact you w/in 2 weeks, but you posted anonymously. Care to leave an email? Or you can email me at dana@bunnyblab.com.
