Spring fever is in the air, and guess who caught it? Our sweet, snuggly Linus! In this episode of Bunny Nibbles, we share the surprisingly hilarious moment when our gentle love bug went full “Linus the Hulk” (don't worry, it wasn't permanent). Unexpected bunny brawls, wrong target moment, bunny hormones, and springtime chaos. Tune in to listen about how our sweet Linus bear went a little bit bonkers one spring. We hope you enjoy this one!
Bunparents, you know the look—that hopeful, patient, extremely determined gaze your bunbuns give when you're in the kitchen. Well, today, that look turned into an unexpected physics experiment. A simple lunch prep took a surprising turn, and let's just say… things fell into place in the most unexpected way.
In this adorable episode of Bunny Nibbles

Hey Bunmom Life friends! Grab your favourite drink and settle in for a rollercoaster ride of our bunny bonding adventure with Roo and Kumo. Today, we're diving into the highs and lows of their journey to becoming best buds. This is part 1 of a two part episode on their bonding. We kick things off with a look at how we started the bonding process, including deciding to forego conventional methods and do things the nontraditional way after a first attempt that went poorly. We had a rocky start but ended up discovering what works best for our Queen Roo who has been so used to tons of free-roaming space. Things seemed to be going really well until... they didn't. Get ready for a huge twist to our story at the end of this episode. Join us as we recount all the ups and downs, and stay tuned for the next episode to see how Roo and Kumo's story continued to unfold. We appreciate you listening and would love to hear your thoughts and experiences, so don't hesitate to reach out! Until next time, sending lots of love and bunny boops your way!
In today's episode, I confess some embarrassing truths about myself being a bunmom who is a little overly obsessed with her bunnies. This episode is light-hearted, silly, honest, and fun, and we hope you'll tune in to listen. We also share some of our updates including one really exciting one! Thank you for joining us!

Welcome back to another cozy episode of The Bunmom Life! Today, we're delving into the financial side of bunny parenting. But fear not! This isn't your typical boring budget talk (we hope) —it's a journey through our bun-family's spending habits and the tales behind them. How much do our beloved bunnos actually cost? We share stories from hay to veggies (and our fridge's chill factor making a surprising difference), treats to chew toys (learning the hard way what our bunnies prefer), to chew toys that are not supposed to be chew toys (hint: baseboards and couches), we break down the essentials and the occasional splurges. Each bunny is so different and their health conditions are one of the main factors that determine whether we have a pretty lost-cost bun to a very expensive one. Timo's health struggles really showed us the very costly side of bunny care. Oh the joys and challenges of being bunparents! Despite the costs, the love and companionship they bring are priceless. We hope you'll join us for our stories and insights and we hope you enjoy this one. Thanks for tuning in! Until next time, stay fluffy and loved
We just moved into a new home! From a small one bedroom condo to a 3 floor townhouse, tune in to hear how we arranged and prepared for our move with Roo at the top of our priority list. We share about what it was like for her being surrounded by boxes filled with items from 8 years of our lives living there, how we organized moving day, and how we transitioned Roo into the new space, including getting her used to new hardwood floors and stairs! We have many stories; we especially love the one we tell about Roo and the ONE rug she hates (note: Roo typically loves all rugs). So grab your cup of coffee or mug of tea, come on over to our little Bunmom Life Cafe, and sit with us as we tell you all about our big move. Thank you for tuning in and we hope you enjoy this one!

On this episode, we're delving into more of the less glamorous duties of being a bunmom. Brushing, grooming (think fur everywhere), nail trims, house cleaning (how long can we get away with not cleaning the litterbox?). Bunnies are more work than you might think! Also, tumblefluffs! Yes, we made up that word and we think it's quite fitting. How about bunny sneezes? And Roo the bunny-cat? We also share some exciting updates about this month. Come join us! We hope you enjoy this one
Hello Everyone! Today, we're talking about some of the less glamorous duties of being a bunmom. I share unique stories about our experience with our bunnies' poops. Yes, perhaps listen to this when you're not sitting for a meal. These are some behind-the-IG stories including the time Roo had pinworms, when she ate a piece of our toxic houseplant, we talk about our bunnies' eye poops and what happens to said eye poops when they have a bonded partner, and we share about a very interesting and remarkable story about the times when there was a piece of hay stuck in our bunnies' eyes.

Hello everyone and happy holidays to all of you! Today we're sharing an update on how we've been doing, how Roo has been, how we are working through the holidays that's overshadowed with grief for a second year in a row. But we aren't just staying in that space during this episode. In this episode, we mainly talk about the joy and holiday traditions we've shared with our bunnies, the happy stories and memories of Christmas that we built with our three bunnies the past years, Roo's surprising adoration of snow, and how it's like for us now that Roo is a solo bunny once more.

Hello everyone, this is The Bunmom Life podcast. On November 9th, 2023, we lost our sweet bunny Timo when his body surrendered to his chronic health issues. It has not been easy navigating this loss so soon after we lost our beloved Linus bear just over a year ago. In this episode, we talk about Timo's last day, what he went through, how we all thought he would make it out of the emergency fine, and what taking that devastating call from the vet was like - when he told us Timo's heart stopped. We talk about how we are still working through the rawness of this grief, and what we keepsakes we have to remember both Timo and Linus by. We open up and invite you in through this podcast to share what we are going through with you. Thank you for all your love and support.

Today's episode is open and raw. We just lost our beloved Timo. I share a few of my journal entries I wrote this past week and open up and share a bit of what it has been like for us right after losing Timo. It's not the full picture (we may share more later on); it's just a glimpse into the grief we are going through, the hurt, the heartache, the guilt, but also the gratitude and immense love in our hearts. I wasn't sure if I'd be releasing an episode today; I actually couldn't even think about it until the last minute yesterday. But as I reflected on Timo's life and Linus' life, I knew I wanted to do this as a tribute to them. They're never truly gone. Love always perseveres.
