Really ties the room together.

I’m finishing my coffee.

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

[-] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 50 points 2 months ago

It's mostly delighted or pleased, although it can occasionally mean the opposite, especially in the military. I believe it started off as "proud." This bunny is delighted and proud of his new rug.

I'm amazed he knows how to use a litterbox and not just poop everywhere. That's probably how he earned his nice rug!

[-] Riven@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 2 months ago

Apparently it's a thing you can train them to do with a bit of effort. You cna train some birds too.

[-] MY_ANUS_IS_BLEEDING@lemm.ee 21 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

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.

[-] ayyy@sh.itjust.works 13 points 2 months ago

Satisfied. Smug but not in a negative way.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 13 points 2 months ago

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

[-] 01011@monero.town 7 points 2 months ago

A very British trait.

[-] gmtom@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

Especially when someone gets "chuffed to bits"

That bunny has a better living space than I did all through college.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

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 bet he's the best Bunnies and Burrows GM and his surname is something bun-punny resembling Mercer 😉

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.

[-] ech@lemm.ee 3 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] ericbomb@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] Cataphract@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago

TIL you can litter train a bunny, really wish I knew that growing up since my family had a pet bunny when I was young and had to constantly clean up after it. I was wondering how anyone could do this with a bunny shitting all over the house.

[-] ericbomb@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I was going to say "Oh you can potty train any mammal!"

Then I remembered Pandas exist... sooo I'll just say "Most mammals have had examples of them being potty trained"

I've got a couple guinea pigs. one assumes the tarp is the limit of his territory, whether or not there's fencing.

the other one regularly goes wandering, but respects the areas I've said are off limits. and she knows she has to get back to her territory - the tarp - to get any treats.

so it's entirely possible this bunny recognizes his "room", as defined by the new rug.

[-] BreadOven@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

The hay mat is for eating/playing.

[-] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 25 points 2 months ago

I think I have that same rug

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 42 points 2 months ago

How do you feel about carrots and leafy greens?

[-] NOT_RICK@lemmy.world 21 points 2 months ago

I feel I should probably consume more of them. Wait, am I a rabbit?

Is this Bugs’ Basilisk?

[-] Mechaguana@programming.dev 2 points 2 months ago

Eeeeeh whats up doc

[-] Wizard_Pope@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Nah carrots are not really that good for rabbits. Maybe you are a human after all. Yipeeee!!

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

[-] corvi@lemm.ee 22 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 16 points 2 months ago

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".

[-] desmosthenes@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

tbh when I had them they’d just shit where they wanted to

[-] desmosthenes@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

find little balls of doo doo everywhere

[-] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 months ago
[-] baseless_discourse@mander.xyz 3 points 2 months ago

They are different, the little balls are hard poop, which they will not eat. I think cencotrope are only on their butt, but I am not sure.

[-] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

They drop both. The ones that look like Coco Puffs are regular poop, the ones that look like little glossy grape clusters are the cecotropes.

[-] baseless_discourse@mander.xyz 3 points 2 months ago

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.

[-] b3an@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

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

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@lemmy.world 8 points 2 months ago

Thank you! I picked the uniform adjustment for my profile pic.
