Step 1: twisting left clockwise and right counter clockwise, form a half clover. On the left, the running end is behind the horizontal rope. On the right, it is in front. On the left, it is behind.
Reach through the right and grab the top of the left arch. (Notice my right hand.) At the same time, reach through the left and grab the vertical running line
one loop pulls into the other, forming a butterfly -like shoulder straps.
Step 2: make a twist in the rope, with the front going downwards on the left
Come a few inches down the body to place the second rung.
Here, make a clockwise twist with your right hand so that the running end forms a loop and runs downards.
(in this photo the lines are awkwardly twisted)
pass the running end through the loop formed by the twist, splitting the ends, forming two more cuffs. Now passing these cuffs through the bunny’s arms one at a time. (It helps to reach your own hands through the cuffs, grab the bunny’s hands, and maneuver the rope onto the bunny’s arms.)
Step 3: Repeat downwards
repeat down the arms
EXTRA
If extra rope, build munter hitches up the right side, then opposite munter hitches down the left side (be sure to switch the munter hitch for symmetry). The munter hitches can be used to close the tension even further.
Like the strappado, this challenging stress position requires communication with your bunny as to the most flexible they can be in their arms. As the bunny stands, their body adjusts, providing more slack, often loosing the tension.
