Until recently I didn't have any idea that you could show rabbits!!
I spoke to someone last week about it and they invited me along to a local show with one of my pet rabbits. I thought about it and decided I would go with Timmy my oldest rabbit. I did a little bit of research and he was judged in the pet class. I didnt do any preperation just the normal groom. I took my sister with me and we decided way before we set off that if Timmy was stressed or upset we would come straight home. I know he is ok in the car I just didnt know what he would be like there.
So we got there booked in put timmy in his place.... and..... he loved it. He was showing off to everyone and enjoying all the attention. The time then came for him to be judged and I was suprisingly nervous. All Timmy wanted to do was go and say hello to the other rabbits an lick the judge. He had everyone laughing.
The end of the show came and we had won 2nd place and on reflection I really enjoyed my day and I think Timmy had to.
I dont think i could ever be seriously into the showing but it was nice to go and show Timmy off and everyone was so friendly... afterall Timmy is firstly a pet and not a show "thing".
Basically I just wanted to know what everyone else thought of rabbit showing etc. I am just curious.
Thanks xx
