Hi, you may or may not remember me posting a month or two ago about a work colleagues bun who i went to feed when they were on holiday at reighton, and he was in a tiddly indoor cage, and she was on about getting rid of him as no longer practical due to personal reasons.
Well, she's now saying her OH is going to take him to PAH for adoption on thursday and she's gutted, she still wants to get rid of him but she'd rather i had him as she'd know he'd gone to a good home rather than a stranger via PAH, she's said she'll pay for his jabs as he's never had any.
my problem is this - money :? My two are due both lots of jabs at the end of the months so thats £80, then I need to get Jess spayed in the near future as she's 8 months old so thats going to be near enough £100 then I need to get a hutch cover which is going to be about £100, which is all fine as I would have spread the cost over the next few months but now i'm feeling really pressured to take George.
The original hutch i had for Joejoe when we first got him is a pets at home one, i think it was parsley den, he was never shut in it as it's obviously too small it was just a base when we lived at our old place and he had his own room, well i gave that away to someone at work when we got him a proper indoor cage as they were going to get ferrets but they haven't and they've said I can have it back.....I know it's too small for George but i'm thinking, it is 2 if not 3 times bigger than what he's in now and it would only be until February at the latest when I get my bonus from work and i could afford a proper 6x2x2 double decker......
Joejoe & jess have got a 6x4 run and hutch combo but there isn't the space for another one of those in the garden.
So after this big long waffle, my question is this, do I let George go to PAH or do I take him, but in a small hutch (albeit bigger than what he's in now) for about 5 months? Or is there anyone on here who could take him?
I can't afford to insure another bun either, i know it's "only" £9 a month but there's also the food and ongoing jabs etc too and i'm on a debt plan thing so moneys tight to say the least and I'd hate to take him then not be able to afford to treat him if he needed something doing, he's never seen a vet in his life so i don't know how his teeth etc are.
My head is telling me i cannot afford this rabbit but my heart is feeling so guilty that he may end up somewhere horrible through PAH.
