    I get confused every time I see the word “chuffed” because i have no idea if becoming chuffed is a good or bad thing.

      Chuffed is slang for very pleased in the UK. More specifically it’s when something good has just happened to you that’s causing you to grin uncontrollably like a lunatic.

      As my crude father would say: “I’m chuffed to buggery!”

      Although buggery is a bad thing on its own, when combined with chuffed it’s like a +1 enchantment instead.

      Especially when someone gets “chuffed to bits”

      It’s the most negative-sounding positive word, isn’t it?

      “Chuff” in the context of rock climbing = bad, made an effort but didn’t get very far / fell a lot

      That bunny is my manager now. He drives a nicer car than I do.

    They have a mat, on a mat, on a carpet…

    This is why I suck at interior design. It all seems so asinine to me.

      I mean at the risk of being “whooshed”

      The rug is to prevent staining the carpet, and if I was them I would actually have a plastic layer between the rug/carpet.

      The hay mat is going to be MONCHED.

        If it were contained in some way, that would make sense to me, but it’s free to roam as far as I can see. As for the hay mat, that still seems strange to me, but fair enough.

          So he looks litter trained based on the box, so my “guess” is it’s to help keep any related stains to this carpet, same you don’t wanna put you litter box on a carpet for a cat, also if all his toys/food are on the rug, he’ll probably stay on the rug most of the time.

          Just a guess though.

    How do you train bunny to use litter box. How do you train cats to use litter boxes, for that matter.

      Rabbits I’m not sure. Cats naturally want to bury their leavings, so they actually train themselves just fine. Show them where it is, keep it clean, and 99% of the time that’s that.

      You just toss the cat into the litter box after setting it up and they’re like “this is fucking rad, dude! Thanks! Now leave me alone to do my bidness”.

      I have never litter trained a baby rabbit, but they generally just poop where there is hay.

      Sometimes it is also helpful to pick up their droppings and put it in the litterbox, but it is largely not necessary.

    I love your username. It’s both the name of a starship maneuver, and of adjusting a Starfleet uniform 😁
