The board looks like it's been abandoned!!  

I was wondering if rabbits have the ability to "fluff" out their fur in the winter??  There are times when he is resting, I swear Petey looks 3 times larger than he is!

Thanks for posting.  (The Board DID look pretty lonely.  LOL)

Yep.  Rabbits fluff their fur.  It's a pretty automatic process.  That's what our "goose bumps" are for.  If we had fur, the process that gives us goose bumps would fluff our "fur" also.
