Ulala is 100% back! From the day after his surgery, he’s been acting as if the operation never happened at all! Tearing magazines and newspapers, jumping on and off the sofa, chewing on the rug, running into other rooms, + all the usual bunny mischiefs.

Ulala has always been rather rebelious and usually demands quite a bit of attention otherwise you’d have nothing left of your favourite Armani Jeans, your favourite magazines, etc. Come to think of it, I’m actually beginning to feel grateful that he is such a naughty boy. This factor probably contributed to his fast recovery.

Anyway, it’s great he is doing so well. My worries have been put to rest. And, thanks for all the well wishes.

Well, here he is. Isn’t he strong?

As soon as I entered the clinic to pick up Ulala after his operation, I could already see the top of his head moving around in the cage. The vet also told me that he ate cabbage as soon as he woke up… hahahahaha. When the vet transferred him into the carry case, he pee’d himself. I’m not sure if he lost control due to the operation, or he was trying to make himself safe by marking territory. But anyway…

When I got him home, I placed him deep inside his cage but he came out right away to drink water. He then ran and circled the living room before going back into the cage and lied down. Every now and again he gets up and looks around and drink lots of water before lying down again. I think he is trying hard to break out of the effects of the anaesthetics. Pain-wise, its kinda suppressed right now via an injection. From tomorrow, I’d have to feed him pain killers.

By now, I guess Ulala’s operation is over and he’s probably about to wake up soon. I dropped him off at the rabbit specialists this morning at 10:30am and will need to go to pick him up at 5pm.

After leaving the vets, I went to a pet store to buy a new hard carry case and a few pet blankets. I already have a carry case for Ulala but it is a soft case which makes it hardly ideal to carry the poor fella in after an operation especially considering it will be rush hour on the trains when I pick him up. Anyway, the shop had the case I wanted but it was only available in green, not the beige I wanted. I was tempted to go to another pet store to find a beige one but since I have ¥3,000 worth of points at this shop, it would have been silly to go elsewhere and pay full price for one since I’m pretty sure the case will only be used for this one occasion.

Ulala will undergo an operation this Friday to remove a big tumour from the lower left-side of his back as well as to get neutered (for a happier, healthier and longer life). I’m not looking forward to this weekend…

… like crazy! The vest is to hide his patchy fur…

… behind the living room mirror (which happens to be the entrance to my room). Rabbits are always on high alert, even when they are asleep. This is hardly surprising considering these cute and quiet animals are at the very bottom of the food chain.

Anyway, Ulala when asleep, from my slightest of movements (and I mean slightest), one of his ears will first shoot up into alert mode followed by the other ear, then he would open his eyes and stare at me. If I get up and walk somewhere, he’d get up too. But if I stayed still, he would slowly fall asleep again only to be woken again if I moved a finger.

So, to get this shot of Ulala being very close to deep sleep, was not easy. I had to stay seated with the camera in my hands pointing at Ulala the whole time while keeping very still. It felt like I was in this position for a decade before Ulala finally fell asleep. And yes, rabbits do snore… quite loudly too.
