Hiya :wave:
I was wondering what your bunnies names were and why they're named that. Guess I'm being nosey as I've come across some unusual names whilst I've been on here and was wondering if there was a story behind it. I'm also guessing people may be wondering why I have a rabbit called Slipper :lol:
So I'll start with her.
My ex bought Slipper for me the day after Dexy was pts as I was inconsolable and couldn't stop crying and he didn't know what to do with me and thought another bunny would cheer me up. As a baby and a dwarf lop x lionhead, she was very fluffy and as I was in too much of a state to think of a name, she was nicknamed Slipper until she got a real name. It's taken me so long to recover from losing Dexy, it's stuck.
Badger & Blueberry - Blueberry is a BEW mini lion lop and I wanted a blue themed name. I really wanted Sapphire, but he turned out to be a boy so I went for Blueberry as my OH said we already have a bunny with gender issues (Slipper was sold as a girl who has turned out to be a boy, but I can't get out of the habit of referring to her as a girl ).
Badger looks very similar to Dex, the only difference is he has lop ears and a black stripe on his spine. Other than that, they could be twins. I was considering Patch for Dex until we chose Dexter and Patch didn't seem to fit this little one. Plus I wanted a name that went with Blueberry and then badger hit me. Because he's black and white! I know a few of you were helping me with name suggestions for these guys before I got them and I really appreciated the suggestions and was going to use some of them. But these names stuck, so here we are.
