Where did you get your rabbits from?

My first bunny midnight i had whan i was tiny came home from the pub with my dad .

Charlie and Popp Came from Jane Dexter who has a rescue in warwick Poppy has gone to the bridge now though i miss u babes

Bam bam Was found by my sister in her shed he was so tiny

An the new bun who doesnt have a name yet was a bit of an accident really he was supposed to be going to jane but she was away for the weekend so i was fostering him as he needed round the clock care after he was found in a field in a really bad way but my boyfriend being the soppy git he is couldnt give him back so he is staying put but he doesnt have a name cant find one to suit him will post some pics so u can give some suggestions he is a lovely chocolate brown miniture lop .
 
Sugar i got from a petshop in the beginning before i knew about places like this,
Smokey i got from a woman who was moving house and couldn't take her buns,
Crystal, i got from Missblondebunny on here,
Pebbles, a mistake litter from my next door neighbour (brought 2 ''females'' ended up with 1 male and 1 female),
Scarlett from a woman who rescues and rehomes animals near me.

Amber is a result of smokey getting out of his run area and into the girls 2 weeks before he went in for the chop so 2 weeks after her and her brothers and sister were born to Sugar,
 
The rabbits I had when I was a child came from a friend who had bred them, my sisters rabbit was 'bought' by my dad from one of the children who was in his class, the family bred rabbits to eat, my dad gave them a joint of pork in exchange. So guess he was our family's first rescue pet.

Mine both came from a very nice breeder in Kent.

I was so pleased with Billy I went back 6 months later for a girlfriend for him and I think she was an "unwanted" bunny of the litter because she had red eyes, she was the last. I didn't like red eyes before but fell in love with her and felt sorry for her so she came home with me so I sort of rescued her - hee hee!!
 
Ted and Dougal are from a petshop, only a little one that usually just sells food, but had a few buns and guinea pigs! They were in a huge pen, running around and were so happy! I knew I would give them a good home for life, so thought it would be ok!

I would love more bunnies, would definitely go to a rescue, but as I'm at uni, I can't really afford any more, and my babies would get jealous!
 
Smirnoff (grey lionhead) - (my first) was an impulse buy from a Garden Centre. He had been sold twice & returned.
Joey (english spot)- my boyfriend got him from Pets @Home
Chocolate (brown rex) -she's from a rescue centre
Caramel (harlequin dwarf lop) - from same garden centre as Smirnoff. They'd had her a few weeks & no one had wanted her
Sugar & Spice (two lionhead babies) from a lady up the road!
Cracker (harlequin dwarf lop) - he's a couple of years old. He was an unwanted pet that someone told me about

& soon I'll have gorgeous Alfie!

Phil you say you were handed some out of the back door of a pet shop - what do you mean ?
 
I knew the supervisor of a wellknown pet store and the buns were going to be PTS as no one wanted them so she gave them to me on the side!

She stopped working for them after that as she didn't like the wat they operated!
 
Yep it does! It's unfortunate! One of the buns in question (Pan) Was huge and the breeder the pet shop had got her from said she was an 8 week old baby! I think not considering she was fully grown! And she was and still is very territorial and can be very nasty! But i love her to bits!
