a new arrival

hello all!
i have just taken in another bunny, but i need help with a couple of things :wink:
any guesses as to what breed she is? she is 4 month old. in one pic i have put the dustpan brush with her as a size comparison. i only ask as if she is a frenchie then i will very soon be needeing to build something different for her whilst she is here! if she isnt then she can have the 4 foot crate and run around time.
also i was told she is a friendly little thing, but right now she is in stress city
running up and down the sides of her cage and getting in a pickle.
in the pics you will see her 'house', now there is no way she can stay in that obviously but should i keep her in it for a little while as she is used to it? there isnt anywhere to put a hidey hole for her, or shall i just set up the dog crate but without the shelf till she is more settled?
i dont want to put the shelf in yet till she is a bit more used to me or i am going to stress her even more trying to catch her each day!
when she is all settled i think i may try and bond her with the family of 5 as she is a babby i hope this should go ok, if not this little precious will be looking for a new home.......
at the moment she is called buttons, but i think i will name her after a tree like all the others 8)

I think I'd be inclined to move her into the bigger accommodation straight away - she may actually associate her old cage with an unpleasant experience so I think it's better to take the 'fresh start' approach, you may find this also helps to settle her as there are new and interesting things to investigate! Would be interested to see what others think?

I think she looks like a Frenchie or a Frenchie-X

I agree with Alison (as usual!! :lol: ) and think she'd be better moved to bigger accomodation ASAP. Maybe move some of her 'old' bedding in too so as she has familiar smells around her.

i will go and set up the dog crate.....



thanks to you both alison and jane :wink: xxx

I'd say a frenchie too from the ears. She also looks like she may be crossed with a long hair of some kind as she looks like she has longish hair already. She is beautiful though!

2. any tree yielding such wood.
