Hoorah!
I have had a nightmarish time finding a rabbit, the first shelter gave away the only suitable rabbit just as we had agreed to take him on and they had no more male rabbits. The second cancelled our appointment the night before because the only employee went to hospital (very sad) and vlunteers were running the place. Finally, we found a home-based rabbit shelter with some male buns; we were nervous about going but we spoke to the lady and she seemed just like the 'home-rescue' people on here so I trusted her instantly! Saturday we went along, terrified about how it would turn out - how can taking a rabbit on a date be so nervewracking?
Anyway, the place was awesome and the 'owner' very helpful. We explained about Huppie's blind right eye, her age (4-5 years) and her poor past treatment with no rabbit contact. She advised two rabbits, we tried the one most unpopular first - an albino with no front teeth. It was love at first sight, after 20 minutes he was licking her ears.
We have had them home since Saturday and all is going far better than expected, they are even litter trained already! I couldn't be happier and Huppie is still getting Rambaldi to lick her ears - the little minx :lol:
