Being a Bunny

[Guest BestestDada]

Hiya! Sooooo, my little is very interested in being a bunny for me, buuuut I don't really know how to lead that?

 

Are there any bunnies here who can give me lists of what they do during bunny time?

[DaddySweetDaddy]

some ideas:

 

hand feed her lettuce

give her a carrot to hold with her two paws to nibble upon

give her a special butt plug bunny tail (buy or create one somehow)

have her hop upon the bed for you and present her bunny bottom with wiggles

encourage her to make little bunny noises and sounds and that they don't have to be 'good' or 'right', just explore and have fun making them

have her hold your _____ in her bunny hands and ____ like a bunny might

Bunnygirls are very sensitive and easily scared. Be gentle and kind. Provide her safety and comfort. They like snacks and naps. Lots of hugs and cuddles. Give her lots of reassurances.
