How did everyone come to own the bunnies they have? How did you decide to own them as pets?
I've only ever owned my current rabbit - Candy.
She's a 2 year old Dutch x lion head and I love her as if she were my child!
I got her when I was 21. When I was growing up I always badgered my mum for a pet rabbit and she refused and said they needed special care compared to a hamster lol ... so I stuck with hamsters and cats etc. Knowing what I know now - she was right. I didn't have the time and neither did she due to a house full of children and work.
so one day I had what my friends call a "wonky wednesday", one of these involves a day off of work, doing something random and going out for student night and getting ridiculously drunk!
So we did just that, we went to a spa for the day and then my friend announced she wanted some pet fish. So we all bundled into the car and headed to pets at home. She got everything she needed but they wouldn't sell her fish until she came back 2 days later due to the water.
Any way during this time I fell in love with the baby bunnies and I wanted them all! I picked out candy because she was the smallest and had bright blue eyes, she was making her way round grooming all the other bunnies. Sold
She was mine.
I then had to get everything there and then like her hutch etc.
So there's me and my 2 friends I'm the back of a saxo car a hutch, a rabbit and loads of fish stuff and bunny stuff!
I named her candy after a night club we all used to go to as a joke and it just stuck!
Wouldn't change her for the world, spent an absolute fortune on her and learnt the hard way but she keeps me smiling and is now my indoor bun.
Once she passes (not for a long time I hope!) I'll then get a couple of rescue buns as I don't agree with places like pets at home....
So what are your stories? How did you get all your buns and get into them??
