Hi everyone,
My daughter has been wanting a rabbit for over a year now. She worked her way to getting one, but unusual and urgent circumstances happened that we ended up with TWO rabbits in a tiny home and I am a bit overwhelmed.
We now have two hilarious angora bunnies that we just adopted but I have to admit I have been so stressed out as they came with a few challenges. One of the bunnies has severe mites- so I clipped him well, but they are also in his ears. I am looking into healthy methods to help him.
The other has weepy eyes, but her fur seems okay so far, although I cut her fur off too as it was time. The weepy eye just started two days ago. Trying to figure out what to do for that too that is healthy and I can do here.
Neither are neutered and for now, we can not afford any further expense of any kind beyond food, as my husband has been out of work for a good part of two years. And yes they are kept separated.
As you all know, bunnies can take over a household. They are so darned cute and hilarious- it has only been a week and already our boy bunny had us laughing so hard yesterday I could hardly stand it. He is obsessed with chasing blankets.
The girl bunny is very independent, but she has a personality that makes you laugh just to look at her. She likes to hide in my husband's armpit of all places. HAHAHAHA
Anyway, with so much going on in my life, this is the last thing I wanted to deal with, but our daughter is taking her responsibility seriously and is being very good about keeping the cages clean and making sure they have water and food suitable for them. She is even reading a book about bunny care and doing a report on it for school.
So, hello from a new bunny owner in upstate NY!
