iv been off today, thus the comment overload on here.. hhahaa,
i took some sleepy pics of twinkle today and thought id share with you all, though itd be sweet to share pictures of our sleeping beauties??
stitch is asleep behind, but is VERY camera shy!!!
‘haha mum, i took a sneaky nap at the top of the stairs’
please share you pictures!!! i love to see everyones buns!!!
Cinnabun is an expert sleeper.
A flopped bun
Flopped bun from a different angle
She actually moved the food dish in order to lay down there.
And finally, here she is slowing falling asleep while laying on my chest.
Soo cute when they cross there front paws! Cinnabon looks so relaxed teeheee I sure twinkle pretends to sleep so I take photos of her, she’s such a poser, I can’t get stitch on camera asleep because he wakes up whenever I put the camera close to him!
snore snore snore.
I caught Rascal dozing off! Funny boy! Too much excitement in one day. =P
Rascal looks adorable! Mine have had such a busy day today they are snuggled together in the corner they look so chilled, makes us feel good when there relaxed with us doesn’t it?
Bunjamin flops everywhere but he only full out passes out in his tunnel or his condo, making it hard for good pics. I need to put my better camera in the bedroom to capture these adorable moments.
I love everyone’s pics though. Sleepy bunnehs are so cute!
Skipper’s favorite spot is to sleep on her first level. But this was one of the rare times that she decided to fall asleep on her top level.
Awww we love our bunnies !!
Since we’re posting bunny sleepy pictures I have to ask! Do anyone’s bun(s) do anything before they flop over to sleep? Skipper loves to scratch at her cage floor before flopping over. =p
Both of mine turn around in circles as if trying to fine the best position haha it’s soo cute!
my bun just flops. lol
So sweet! I don’t have many pics of my buns sleeping. Glad you are all sharing yours. Is making me sleepy…..
Skipper loves to scratch at her cage floor before flopping over. =p
Bindi does this too! Dig dig dig, flop.
Baby liked sleeping in my boot, too bad she is too big to do it now LOL
Awe baby!! That’s he cutest thing ever. All the sleepy buns are so sweet.
Baby in a boot! Hehe, so cute. I try to get pics of Mimzy when she sleeps but she always wakes up soon as she hears me going for the camera I even try to be extra extra quiet but she still hears me!
This is the best I got
Mimzy usually just flops without doing anything before hand. But after flopping, she’ll stay for a few seconds and then just lay on her belly anyway
I’ve shared some of these before, but I really liked this thread here are my little bunnies relaxing on a day full of adventures and lots of snuggle time.
We had set up a sort of picnik with blankets and everything in the living room, and the bunnies really enjoyed themselves. They fell asleep in my arms as you see in that last pic so sweet.
I got a good one of Hazel Snoozing
and Cinnamon Sleeping
and the little Girls together
bullrider, in that last pic they totally look like they are plotting something!
LOL they always are!! little trouble makers lol
The elusive sleeping Leo!
Arduina passed out by the water bowl (she does this all the time)
Awww bunnies are so cute when they are zonked out. Yesterday I found Totoro sleeping on his back with his paws in the air but he moved before I ran back with my phone.
bullrider: that is way too cute that Baby used to sleep in a boot, what a silly rabbit!
Tigger used to sleep on his back or side a ton
Aww everyone’s pics are soo sweet I love that baby sleeps in a boot haha,why are bunnies sooo cute, we just can’t get enough of watching them !!
I know! I can’t get over the cuteness overload with each one. I remember once telling Mimzy “You’re so dang cute! I hate it” lol. Since I wasn’t supposed to keep her, but her cuteness was just too much to resist.
I just remembered I have another cute pic of Mimzy sleeping on my floor but I can’t find it I know it’s here somewhere! Too many pet pics to sort through
Bunnyfriend – I love the last pic of WIlbur with his ear in his face lol
And Svandis, I just love that pic of Mathias! He looks like a little lamb
I wish I could get a video. Lately, Bindi looks like he’s talking in his sleep. He’ll be in a loaf position and just mumbling away. It’s super cute and funny.

Arduina does that too!
Aww how cute are these pictures please!? Loving that every1s getting involved! I dont think mine sleep n theIr back, at least iv never seen them!
My little guy only closes his eyes when he sleeps in a sideways flop. when he sleeps upright, either sitting or stretched out, his eyes remain open.
The classic lazy sunday afternoon flop-position. It is an old photo, but still a favorite
Upright stretch with open eyes…
I hate it when Skipper sleeps with her eyes open. I always feel so bad because I don’t realize she’s sleeping because her eyes are open and end up scaring her. >.<
Haha same!! Why do they do that?
Posted By Stitchntwinks on 08/17/2012 12:11 PM
Haha same!! Why do they do that?
good question why DO they do that?!?!?! i have NEVER seen Yeti with his eyes closed,
RexEnabler- What a cutie! I love that little bunny belly!
Stormy usually rests with his eyes open too. My guess is, being prey animals, it`s normal for them to want to be alert most of the time. They are still resting and conserving energy but still aware of their surroundings. Bindi, on the other hand, when that guy sleeps, it`s often hard to wake him up. Doesn`t help that he can`t hear very well. When he`s conked out, he`s conked out. I guess he figures Olivia and Stormy are on the lookout so he might as well sleep.
I never realised all this time that Belle had been sleeping with her eyes open! Sometimes when I come up to my room I think she is looking at me and I’m like “Hey Belle” and she jumps as though she didn’t see me before! Haha and now I know .
yay photo thread! sleepy buns are my favourite (also an added bonus that theyre not being terrors when theyre asleep )
“I’ll have the bed tonight, you guys can sleep on the floor”
Parsley sleeping with his bum in the air on me (and giving me a dead arm) while i try to read a book
this is an oldie but i love it food coma!
Piglet in his beloved bed.
=3 Oh my gosh I love the smushy face on Parsley as his butt’s up in the air. =]
AWWWW baby sleeping in your boot! Tooo cute >.< Best thread ever!
I can never get pictures of wolfie sleeping she’s a light sleeper.. just wakes up when i try get hte camera out.. or her eyes open slightly and she wakes up and jumps everywhere
Cute, love Wolfie’s grumpy “wake-up” face and bed-head!
Disapproving Wolife is so cute!
I love wolfie! I’m going to come and bunnap her!
Her eye is open, but I’m pretty sure she was sleeping . I love her little feet.
Hahahahha bedhead!
All your rabbits proper have all their paws up like a lil puppy when they sleep soo freaken cute!
I also just managed to get a pic haha
ps. AWWWW belle is seriously such a pretty pretty pretty colour! and i love the photo quality <3
Thank you – yeah she is a dilute so it’s a real nice shade. My camera is pretty crap but I’m quite good at photoshop .
Awww bella looks sooo cute in that photo!! The perfect little bun!!
Sleepy bunnies are so sweet. Here are some of the pics I have of Hodari sleeping, or dozing. Just a few of my favorites.
I like this one of her sleeping by her hay box, surrounded by all that wonderful hay! She also has a piece of it on her forehead.
Here’s a flop. I got her this little rug months ago at Target for a buck. It’s so soft and she adores it. I’ve never seen her flop so much!
Two more of her on her little rug. It seems to be her favorite sleeping spot outside of her cage. Both of these make me smile.
Obviously she’s wide awake here, but you guys were talking about when bunnies sleep with their eyes open, which she is doing in the pic that follows this one. You can tell a difference.
Sleeping with her eyes open. Her eyes seem to be crossed and deeper set and a bit “glazed or glassy” when she’s asleep. LittlePuffyTail is probably right that bunnies do it because they’re a species that predators like to attack; they can pretend to be awake this way, which might discourage a predator from sneaking up on them. I dunno…
Freya, I love the pics of Parsley, especially the first one. He looks so snuggly. The one of Belle is great, too. Ha, ha. I love all these bunnies, every one of them! I hope people will keep adding pics to this thread. It’s so cute!
I also have a couple of Mr. Hopper.
Mr. Hopper and Tina (my wife) taking an afternoon nap
mr. Hopper chillin
Aww love the close up of mr hopper!! What a cutie! I hope people keep adding to this thread too!! Love that so many people have got involved!

FFFfffff cuteee!!! Soooo fluffy omgoshh
Okay, this is the perfect topic for Cheddy pics as he sleeps all the time!!! Pic overload of Cheddy passed out.
I went through some old photos and came across this one. It was taken a few days after we had gotten Skipper. She used to love to sleep behind her food bowl before she got too big for it.
Haha! No one naps like Cheddar!
All the bunnies are just so sweet! I love sleeping buns because they can’t get into any trouble!
Love Hodari on the little heart. Looks like a Valentine. Wish someone would send me one like that some Feb 14!
That last pic of Cheddar is precious! He is irresistible. I’d have to disturb his slumber to hug and kiss him!
Little baby Skipper with her ear in her bowl! I love it! Hodari has always liked to sleep behind things, too. When she was a baby we bought a grass tunnel for her to hide in, but she never used it that way; she preferred to nestle herself between it and the wall. I have lots of pics of her sleeping between the wall and various pieces of furniture. She has a little pillow, too, that is just her size. She likes to push it to one side of her while she leans against the bookcase; so she has the bookcase to rest one side against and the pillow to rest the other against!
Bullrider, how did Baby get in that boot, anyway? Silly bunny, that doesn’t look at all comfortable!
Cinnabun’s philosophy is to sleep next to her toys so no one can take them….
Ahem..
Haha lovechacha, she looks like she’s thinking mumma stop bothering me!
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOKAY Cheddar wins the all time cute bunny award. definitely willing to bunnap this little dude.
i love how… cylindrical? he is…
cuteness overload!!!!!!!
Cheddy thanks everyone for the comments. He really is the sleeping king. Here are more pics of him knocked out. I can’t believe how often he just sleeps like this. It always cracks me up and endears my heart when I see him so vulnerable.
He is very cylindrical aka a big boy lol.
One of my all-time favorite pics of him knocked out. He’s in my kitchen when I had them set up there.
Aw Chedder is too cute!
Oh my gosh Silly Sungura! Skipper loves doing that too! Her favorite thing to do is to crawl between the space of our back and a wall when we’re sitting against one. She’ll just chill out there for a while and demand to be pet at the same time. (Very awkward to do. >.<') I wonder why buns liked to smooshed in between things.
chedder is one cute puffball!
all the pictures are so cute! Its so funny when the pictures look like they are just knocked out – you know its either from a good dinner or too much binkying when they sleep like that!
Here’s Milo and Odie being cuddle bugs.
Cheddy is absolutely gorgeous!
I’ll be sure to take some piccies of Wilbur tomorrow .
Each time I walk into my bedroom I find Rascal sleeping somewhere new. This time he was in a spot I don’t really like the bunnies being but I haven’t blocked it off yet. I found him wedged between my shelf and the wall.
Now I found Valentine knocked out! lol She was really in a deep sleep!
