Tofu Tuesday: Tofu and Georgie

Tofu has a new fan. Georgie is a cat from next door and I have seen Georgie and Tofu them sniffing noses through the fence. It’s freakin’ adorable. Georgie is timid and has a moon shaped face and orange eyes. Unlike the other cats, I’ve never seen Georgie come over to our property. He seems to just want to make friends from through the fence.

Tofu Tuesday: Tocks on cut grass

Our landlord cut our grass in the weekend. Woot! It’s nice being able to sit on the lawn again. Not that it stopped Tofu before. Tofu’s winter coat has shed and his molting has ceased it’s assault. He’s basically wearing short shorts and a singlet in this photo. Maybe he needs a lilo, a paddling pool and a cocktail with umbrella?

Tofu Tuesday: Tofu Salad

I’d like to take this opportunity to talk about Cinnamon the lagomorph legend over at Disapproving Rabbits. This blog’s weekly installment Tofu Tuesday is inspired by Sunday Cinnamon. Cinnamon was a rescue bunny and passed on to Rainbow Bridge at approximately 13 years. The world will miss you Cinnamon but I am happy to have witnessed your shenanigans.

Tofu Tuesday: Narrow depth of field

This is pretty cool for food photography or portraits. Here is a portrait of Tofu hanging out in the narrow depth of field. There is a pretty solid band of focus and the rest (both front and back) are blurred.

Tofu Tuesday: Bunny bath time and Monocle Morph

Rabbits are very clean animals and spend a huge amount of time grooming. But from time to time they can get a bit messy underneath due to diet and/or weather. Usually, we trim away offending dirty fluff and dreads. Bunny bath time Last Thursday we gave Tofu his first bath ever. It wasn’t nearly as traumatic as we thought it would be, but it was a 2 person job. One to hold him firmly and dip his bottom into the sink and the other to shampoo and rinse. That was pretty successful and we got all the brown bits out. But then come Friday evening, Tofu was wet all underneath which is unusual for him and very uncomfortable. He was eating as usual and running around the backyard quite happily but his fur was wet, smelly and dreaded and the skin inflamed. Local vet visit We usually take Tofu to a miracle worker of a vet which is quite a long drive away, but this didn’t seem to be a life or death situation, so we …
