Ironically as it turns out, not only is my husband allergic to Checkers, our "trial bunny", but so am i. i think for me it's most likely the hay, in which case i could switch to a different type of hay that may be less allergenic to me (for example i'm not allergic to my horse's orchard grass hay). But my husband is allergic to the bunny himself, we think. He was fine overnight until he went to pet Checkers for an extended period, then the allergies flared (whereas for me i was allergic once i handled the hay).
So, i guess this means my dream of bunny companionship has died.
