Hmmm. Gimli is not scared of lava. This could be fun! On the plus side Hoomdad is always saying he has too much work, so Gimli can help out.
@mrsbunnyw Whoa! Not afraid of lava! 
Off road rabbit off road rabbit (that’s what we can Skye if she ventures off the carpet!)
@Satori also he goes upstairs all by himself; eek!
All our previous buns were scared of the "#slippy floor"; my office and the living room are carpeted, and then it's one step up into the kitchen/hallway with linoleum floor, and that was enough to keep them in these two rooms.
Then we got Lena. After the second time I found her #upstairs under a bed, I had to put a baby gate between the living room and kitchen.
And then a little while later I had to hack a great ugly latch onto it because she figured out how to open it.
@cazabon @mrsbunnyw 
Lena is definitely.. unique
Sometimes I swear there's a little #human inside her.
After the baby gate had been up a week, I couldn't find her. She was down the hallway, and I figured I hadn't closed the gate. Shoo'd her back to the living room.
And then an hour later while we're watching a movie, I hear "click!" behind me. Turned around and she was halfway through the gate, open just enough for her #lard #butt to squeeze by.

Shoo'd her back into the living room again, and closed the gate while staying on the kitchen side of it.
She sat there and stared at me through the gate, and then without breaking eye contact took the gate wire in her teeth and lifted the whole gate (which released the automagic latch) and pulled it open, then just sat there staring at me.
I get it, you're #smart, you're #evil, someday I'm gonna wake up with a #carrot through my #skull.
Too human!
@cazabon @mrsbunnyw This is an amazing story! What an escape artist. I’d definitely sleep with one eye open… 
@cazabon @Satori @mrsbunnyw Yes! We underestimate how smart animals are!
We had a cockatiel many years back from a clutch we kept. Her name was Romeo (we were using army alphabet, that's how it happened). She was in a separate utility cage, but when we got home, we kept on finding her in mom and dad's cage. We couldn't figure out whar she was doing.
Until one Saturday, when my wife and I were debating how she got out, we heard a clang! We looked, and saw she had lifted up the cage gate. 1/2
@cazabon @Satori @mrsbunnyw We proceed to watch little Romeo let herself out. She wanders over to the cage with the budgies in it, and lets herself IN! She helps herself to their food (the budgies scream in protest, but that's it). Romeo looks around, realizes we are watching her, then lets herself out of the budgie cage, and puts herself back into her cage.
A reminder to myself - yes, they can figure things out!
@CrazyITGuy42 @cazabon @mrsbunnyw Oh my gosh, this is hysterical! So nonchalant about it, too! I love cockatiels so much. 
My aunt raised many clutches over many years, hand fed!
I had an #EscapePig too. Mo could break out of any cage. He’d scale upward or slide under- whatever it took. Those playpen fences? He’d lift and slide under without breaking a sweat.
