Had someone ( not sure if male or female as the name was unisex) enquire about the bun I have added to RR.
Their email said:
Hi,
I'm interested in adopting your rabbit. I have a 3 yr old male lop eared and would like to get him a girlfriend.
Can you let me know when would be a good time to have a look at your rabbit. I am availble anyday upto christmas eve.
I am major busy, working all over christmas including eve, day and boxing day and only have Saturday off and I don't think Christmas is a good time to get a new animal anyway so I thought well they can wait a week no until next weekend. Apparently not.
Also this email concerned me as my first instinct was he/she wants to breed them. I know theres no proof of it but they didn't mention anything else and of course with the rabbit being a stray my vets cannot gaurantee she's been neutered.
Anyway I sent this back:
Hi ***
Would you be able to wait until after Christmas? I'm crazy busy at the mo. I
work in a Cattery and I am working Christmas Eve, day , and Boxing Day with no
break!
I could do next weekend if that's ok with you ? Either the Saturday or the
Sunday?
Where abouts are you?
Would you be able to send me pics of your set up?
Is your bun neutered and would you need help with the bonding ? I would be happy to help.
Sorry for all the questions , but as I'm sure you understand I have to be
thorough x
Thanks for enquiring,
Many thanks
Leanne.

I'm unavailable the wknd after next and I'm going to a rescue centre on Saturday so may well have chosen a rabbit by then.
I will keep you informed.
:?
I know I'm not a rescue but I really feel if I am going to help rehome rabbits then I need to do it properly and not just ' hand them over' to whoever. On the otherhand I feel bad I may have just lost Willow a home.
Why could they not give me more info and wait a week for pitssake
