The Bunday Evening Thumps

It was a bit slow start before the Tampa Bay Bunfest 2025 became packed

Good evening, Everybun!

It's been a quiet day in the burrow. We did a lot of good loafing, even my hoomin loafed!

Now, on to the important stuff. Why the days of those big, fancy salaaaaads are over. The short answer is to eliminate as much calcium from Charlie's diet as possible. We are down to cilantro and mint because they are very low in calcium. We get an extra sprig of this or that from time to time, but only as a garnish. We got lucky Charlie responded as well as she did to the meds or even that little, measly bit of greens would be gone too.
Here's the recap of our drill:
Distilled water for drinking,
Apple and pineapple juices to make the water more attractive.
Limited pellets
Very limited, low-calcium greens.

That said, nobbuny better touch our raspberries!

In other non-news, we have a hellish temporal vortex in full swing on our paws. Because of the time change this weekend, our routines went out the window. And so we tried to take it easy.

The Bunfest went well. My hoomin got a lot of good feedback on the two paintings. Sitting next to the two pieces, talking with strangers, and playing with paints a little, he forgot about the world outside being on fire. Even a few hours help.

We're still grappling with Espresso being gone. Right now we wait, take it easy, roll with those punches in the gut, and try to get up one more time.

Goodnight and good luck!
