    Hi friends! There seems to be A LOT of comments about Luna the bunny, and not a lot on the decor of this video (which is what this video is about!) Though I understand the concern for animals (I have two little cats and love them more than life itself) I once again urge you to please think before you type. This bunny has been in their family for years, and like any animal or child, they know their pet the best. This bunny is one of the most loved animals on the planet, and just seeing 4 seconds of an animal on screen gives no insight into what kind of life it has. Just as I wouldn’t tell you how to parent your child or how to take care of your pets, let’s please keep the comments friendly and kind and about decor 💕

      True but I'm afraid the bunny should not be carried like that. He isnt supported properly. I'm sure he's much loved. Criticizing the way he is carried is not an unkind comment... It's an observation.

      Sometimes it’s important to tell people how to parent. If they are negligent or abusive then it’s everyone’s business. Children are not your property just because you give birth to them. And the whole community has a responsibility to look after them. This includes being a busybody if their own parents are incapable of love and care.

      I love what you do .....but UA-cam is a public forum and you cannot dictate what people are allowed to comment on....when people see a situation in which they feel an animal is treated unkindly or inappropriately they can and should speak up!
      Simply because someone owns a pet does not mean they always care for them properly or humanely..
      That being said - I do love what you did with this space!

  • @rainygreymornings

    Aw, the room turned out lovely! As always. I do so enjoy your makeovers.
    Can I, very respectfully, say one thing, though? Please tell little Jemma not to hold her rabbit like that, it's painful and terrifying to them. As a species evolved to the constant danger of being attacked by birds of prey, rabbits generally don't love being picked up. If it must be done, e.g. to put them in their carrier for trips to the vet, it's a good idea to support their bottom with one hand. Otherwise, all of their weight rests uncomfortably on their soft bellies and ribs. I know lots of people carry cats that way and some cats don't mind, but it's not a great way to carry a bunny, even if it stops struggling.
    I'm sorry, I really don't intend to be mean, but I just had to say something. I've had rabbits for years and am somewhat active in different rabbit communities, and we see so much casual or inadvertent mistreatment of these poor things simply because there's so much misinformation around. (Like the idea of rabbits being great "starter pets". They're not -- they just suffer a lot more quietly than cats or dogs if you mistreat them.) I mean no disrespect to you or Tania -- she seems great and I adore you. I hope this comes accross the way it is intended, as a respectful and friendly conversation. If Tania and Jemma have questions on rabbit care, a rabbit-savvy vet (non-specialised vets can, unfortunately, be shockingly ignorant on rabbits) or even the rabbit community on instagram can be good places to ask. And there's @lennonthebunny's UA-cam channel, of course.
    I hope Jemma and Tania have many more years with their beautiful grey bun, and lots of time to hang out in their amazing new meditation room!

      You were very polite! I couldn’t stand to see that child holding that poor bunny that way. Bunnies are one of the most abused animals because they are silent. Abuse being the usual neglect when children tire of it. One positive thing is hopefully it’s not always in the typical cage that’s always way too small for rabbits.

      @Ferd Ferd.D Do you know anything about rabbits? Why are you broadcasting such an uninformed opinion across every single comment on this video? If you took two seconds to google how to hold a rabbit, you'd understand people's concern. Yes, it's annoying that it is all people are commenting about, but it's not your duty to police it with your nonexistent experience and knowledge.

      @Ferd Ferd.D If you google search how to properly carry and hold a bunny online, you will see plenty of information that holding a bunny that way is dangerous. It causes leg and spine damage. Even for a few seconds... I also know multiple veterinarians that say they have bunnies brought into their clinics due to spinal and leg injuries from being held that way over time.

    Please share with the mom that the way her daughter is holding her rabbit can cause serious physical harm. The way the girl is holding the rabbit can cause spinal injuries.... EDIT: I edited my wording to rephrase what I mean- this comment is no way meant to bully or try to tell a parent they have "failed." This comment is to state that basic bunny care is to never hold a bunny this way, they need to be supported by their bottom.

      @LindseyMaeWhite 4 роки тому +17

      I agree. I have known a few people (including veterinarians) that own bunnies. They like to have all 4 feet on the ground. Holding a rabbit by it's upper arms could damage it's legs and spine. While the girl seems very sweet and does not know better, rabbits should never be held like that.

    • @thereversepolarbear
      @thereversepolarbear 4 роки тому +4

      I also think bunnies don't like to be picked up in general - it feels to them like they have been caught by a predator. They prefer it if you sit on the ground with them and they can come and jump up on your lap if they want to. Also, yes if you do pick them up you should support their whole body. I have had a few bunnies and they used to be furious if we picked them up and would thump afterwards. :(

    • @jmk1962
      @jmk1962 4 роки тому +12

      Rabbits don't mind being carried if they are carried from very young, but she should not carry it across the middle of it's stomach. You are supposed to hold the back feet in one hand with it's body against your body whilst supporting the rabbit with your other hand u derneath the front legs. That way the rabbit feels secure and is not stressed of hanging in mid air. Ask any vet and they will show you how to do it.

    • @kendrahwithanh
      @kendrahwithanh 4 роки тому +11

      Wanting to jump on the top with some helpful tips on how to hold/carry bunnies. This advice comes from a place of kindness, not judgement. I do not think this bunny is being abused at all. Here are some resources on how to hold a rabbit with proper support:
      ua-cam.com/video/mDQQbxz0Fo4/v-deo.html
      wabbitwiki.com/wiki/Handling (Has a great RSPCA image on bunny holding)
      While the bunny is not in danger/fear in the video, in general a bunny can kick out and break its own leg if they are not supported. And If you hold them in the middle like Gemma was doing, they can also go into what's called a "trance" which looks like they are tranquil but they are actually in a state of shock so deep they become catatonic.
      That bunny is NOT in a trance and seems quite comfortable, but we all want the best for our pets, right? :) Just make sure you always support the legs and butt first, and you're good to snuggle away!

    Also we want to let everyone know that Luna the rabbit is super loved and happy. He has been with us since he was 3 months he loves to be snuggled and picked up and cradled and he even purrs like a kitty! He is a magical little bunny and he follows Gemma everywhere until she picks him up.
    We promise he is loved and taken great care of and his other best friend is a Boston terrier dog who he loves dearly too!

      @@FurnitureFan it shouldn't depend on when they used the room (winter, rainy days...). And especially for a child you want to be sure there is enough light whenever she reads. I just feel that the plant isn't necessary, especially if you have to take it out off the corner to see the sunlight once a day, and that was just a way to use an empty space. Space where a lamp would have been usefull.

    Lots of teachable moments here.
    Support the bunny's butt.
    Don't include in the presentation if you don't want comments about it. Cause free-speech baby
    Studs in the ceiling are needed for hanging hammocks.
    Neutral tones are very tranquil.
    Eyeballs make very cool mirrors.
    The room is lovely ♥️

    I truly love this so much. Would love to see more videos like this, as they're great even for people who don't meditate but just want a cosy reading nook, hangout space or 'lady space'. The decor looks kind of boho minimalist chic to me.

    For all who can't hang a hammock from the ceiling, there are also versions with a framework that can be put on the ground. Decorated with some flowers or fairy lights it looks great too.

    I agree with the concern for the way the bunny is handled but I think it also needs to be mentioned that the plants in the room are dangerous for the bunny!! I also own a Zz plant, but I keep it high up on a shelf where my bunny can't reach it. There are rabbit safe plants and there are lots of lists online that help with that. If you do have a plant that is unsafe for your bunny keep it up high and make sure you pick up any leaves or flowers it drops.

    Love the moon phase design on the wall!!!! With the eye mirror it’s perfect!
    ALSO- poor rabbit. I’m a bunny mom, and let that little girl keep holding the bunny like that and it will cause severe spine injury.

    The soft pastel shades of pink and coral warm the space without overpowering the tranquility of the simple whiteness of the walls and curtains. I would even hang a coral or pink nubby fabric panel in front of that slender bit of wall between the windows and the white curtain panels just to finish off that wall.

    What a great space to work with! I really like the use of the wall decals for an accent wall. My bedroom is in need of a makeover, it hasn’t been done in years and I think behind my bed I’m going to look into using decals😊 by the way I did feel the room looks tranquil. And when I show my daughter that swing I’m sure I will be installing one in the corner of her bedroom.

    Hey, don't ask people to ignore things they feel the need to speak up about! Yes, the decor was lovely, but I think the bunny is more important. Hopefully the message will be passed along that there is a proper way to hold rabbits so they aren't injured
