I got the slow blink thing from birds. If you slow blink to birds, they
"understand" that you are not trying to threaten them andthey calm down. I
figured that bunnies are flight animals, like birds, so I tried it and got good
results. They often blink or wink at me as if to say "Hi, Mom!" then go about
their bunny business.

If they stare at me for more than a minute without a blink or wink, they are
telling me they want something (usually a treat or fresh hay - that happened
about an hour ago - Mr. Bunz wanted his hay freshened).

They really are smart little guys/gals!

My boys have learned to, "Give me five!"
When I'm around the house in stocking feet, I lift
my foot and say, "Gimmy Five!" In turn they each
butt the bottom of my foot. Then I know, all is
cool! Cool!

Tres cool! I'm going to try that.

I love it when Mr. Bunz tosses the blue wire ball with the bell in it towards
me or hubby. Then we sit on the floor with him and play "catch." Happy shudders
all around! Thank GOD this hasn't been caught on film - pics of Tony and me
doing "happy shudders" isn't a pretty sight, LOL!

I do a nose wiggle at them. They often look startled, wiggle back and
binky off. I'll have to try blinking.

Lol! When I do that, they look at me as if I have five noses and stare (huh?
what on earth is this woman trying to say??) - God knows what I'm saying in
"bunny" hehe.
