New Kit
Hi, this is a follow on from our search fo a husbun for Betty.Two weeks ago we went to Pets at Home to buy fish food for my son's fish and saw a gorgeous grey and white bun in the adoption centre. He was reserved at the time and we had been really hoping since seeing him that he would go to a good home. I am against shops selling rabbits and other mammals but I was quite impressed with the adoption area they had set up. Frank was the victim of a broken marriage and had been handed in to the store. Anyway, to cut a long story short, we went back there on saturday to get some more fishy supplies ( they're costing me a fortune!) and I couldn't believe my eyes, Frank was still there! It was love at first sight and meant to be so we brought him home. he is perfect for Betty as he is very friendly and confident but also very gentle, just what she needs. They are not together yet as he is having his doodahs off today and will need a bit of recovery time! I am collecting him from the vets at 4pm and he is living temporarily in my daughters room while she is away on a school trip for a week. I will post a photo later. The staff at Pets at Home were really good and said that they had turned down several prospective owners. It's not an ideal place for a rabbit rescue but at least those bunnies will have a chance rather than being disposed of in some other way. The manager showed us a photo of a netherland dwarf who had been handed in last week, absolutely gorgeous but with teeth about an inch long! She had to have all her front teeth removed and is being cared for by staff. How could the owner have not noticed? I feel really guilty about the three male bunnies that Jill has as I was hoping to take one of them but I just couldn't leave Frank there.
