Wise Old Thumper
:shock: It's Tuesday already!! We know it has deffinately been a week since bunny was spotted wandering round my sisters drive. We have notices up in the town and villages next to, a notice at the vets and told the receptionist who put it on the computer but no one has asked there. I have looked on online sites, no bunnies matching his description anywhere in the UK. We don't think he had wandered far because he seemed to not go further then a couple of house down/across from my sisters and his claws don't look warn down by wandering far. No one has been seen looking for him and we have been spreading the word yet nothing. So I guess we best start looking for options on what to do with bunny future wise incase no owners are found. Here are the one's I can think of atm please feel free to add any: My sister would like him but says she doesn't have a lot of money for him which would make her getting acomadation that's good difficult and neutering etc.
1. She wants me to keep him and bond him with Beano and Gordon, I aren't going to do this I am fairly sure but thought I might as well include it anyway. Yes I'd love to see him happy in the shed with B&G but in reality that probably won't happen as I just can't risk B&G falling out, or one of them being left out so I'd rather leave them as they are as a happy pair.
2. I keep him and for now in my sisters room and buy a pen for him and he'll have a cage attached onto it and be let out at regular intervals for free range. He would be booked in for vaccs and a neuter. Then at some point in the future (when I get a job etc) I would like to get like to get him a wifey but this may not even be able to happen until I get my own house which may be a few years off!! And then get my room rearranged and bun proofed and he can live in my room, this will be if after his neuter he stops spraying and chewing carpets!! I think it would be awkward however me having to get changed between seeing buns to avoid referred agression with B&G and I don't want my money to be stretched with getting another pet.
3. He goes to live in a hutch at my sisters and family, they understand he needs space but I cannot garentee he will get a hutch and run quite the size it should be although he will be well looked after and loved. He will be vaccinated against myxi but not sure against VHD but again I cannot garentee they will neuter him, hopefully they will. And agian I don't know if they'll get him a wifey, I am going to get some leaflets and make my own bunny care guide for her explaining why he needs one, but it may not be for a while, one step at a time!
What do you think? Any other ideas? I have been working on building trust with him and he is now fine with my stroking him etc but a tad wary of new people and is a very happy little man, he does the most binky's I've ever seen from a bun!! Sorry for the huge post
