This page should answer most basic questions about Luna and Kito, whom are FriendlyBaron's Sister's Pet Bunnies - She goes by Caretta119 online. You can check them out more at https://www.twitch.tv/friendlybunnies and https://www.instagram.com/friendly_bunnies/.
Kito
Hi I'm Kito, a 3 year old male dutch rabbit. I am Caretta's first bunny and have lived with her almost my whole life. I lived alone up until when Luna was adopted but I absolutely love cuddling and getting groomed by her now. My favorite food is probably parsley and my favorite treat is strawberries. Vacuums are my worst enemy.
Birthday: May 4th
Luna
Hi I'm Luna, a 1 year old female holland lop. I was adopted in Sept. 2019 by Caretta. I love my new home but am still shy and learning to trust pets from humans. I absolutely love tunnels and trying to squeeze through tight spaces. My favorite treat seems to be bananas though so far I have eaten anything given to me.
Birthday: July 4th
How big is the enclosure?
What is off Camera in their area?
The enclosure is 11ft x 4ft right now, bordered by 2x4 pieces of wood and a piece of flooring to protect our baseboards and carpets. The electrical outlets all have child protectors over them.
The right side is where they mainly hangout, they enjoy being in slight cover, or elevated above. On the left, the camera is located in a shoebox for its protection, and they also have their litterbox right next to a hay feeder. The litterbox is off camera for obvious reasons :)
What do they eat?
Do they actually like carrots?
They eat quite a bit actually. At around 5-6PM PST Daily they get a big helping of leafy greens (lettuce, spinach, cabbage, etc), which is their main meal. However, they also have acess to Dry Kibble and Hay all day long. As well, the nibble on cardboard and their own poop. Yeah, really, they don't fully disgest it the first time around and go around a second time :) They don't mind carrots at all, but actually generally have frozen or dried carrots or strawberries as a treat.
How is living with bunnies? Do they smell bad?
Bunnies are a pretty chill pet - they aren't super needy but enjoy pets and playtime once or twice a day. They don't have much of an odor at all as long as you do your average cleaning, espcially compared to a cat's smell and litterbox - the strongest smell is infact the hay they eat.
What camera do you use?
How does the stream work?
Right now we are simply capturing the output from a generic nannycam we have to keep an eye on them. If the stream does well, we will buy an upgraded camera for them. The stream itself runs off an old 2009 laptop our mom didn't need anymore.
Will you let us give them treats from a dispenser?
For the sake of the bunnies health, we don't have plans to let chat feed them. If we had 10s of bunnies like the Duck or Chicken channels on twitch maybe, but not for just these two guys.
What song is playing?
Right now we are using a generic LoFi hiphop playlist. We have plans to move to a more stylized mix that will display the current song on-screen, but might be awhile till prepared.
Why can't I see the bunnies?
Sometimes they will be in the litterbox, which we keep offcamera, though you may see their ears. Or they may be out in the rest of our apartment for playtime. We don't move the camera from its spot to protect our privacy, so they may be out hopping around - we'll post pictures/videos of that on their instagram though! That's also why the Black Box is on screen, it covers our TV! Don't want to get DCMA'd by all the Disney movies watched on there.
Why aren't they freeroam / do they get let out of that area?
For the sake of our carpet and baseboards. Unfortunately Kito will sometimes chew on the carpet or baseboards and Luna has picked up on the bad habit a little bit. However, under supervision, most nights they are let out to run around the rest of the apartment.
