Hi everyone!
I am new to the forum, looking to connect with other bunny owners out there. I am a new bunny-mom. My boyfriend and I adopted our wonderful bun, Geddy Lee, from the House Rabbit Network about 3 months ago. He is a 1.5 year old mix (tried to identify him but I still don't know!). We rescued him knowing he had a bit of a grunting issue, which I overlooked because he was so damn cute! He has progressed a lot in the 3 months we had him. He is quite cage territorial, (what bun isn't?) and likes to lunge and grunt at feet and hands, but instead of trying to bite, his lunging and grunting has turned into bowing his head for pets! It was a bit of a struggle in the beginning, feeling like my bunny totally hated me, but now we spend 20-30 minutes at a time just laying on the floor giving him head massages (he melts in my hands!). We still have some ways to go with him, I hope eventually he will not be so afraid when we stand near him. But I only think that we were drawn to him for a reason, that we were the type of humans to show this adorable bun that we mean no harm, and only have love to give! Oh and we have a fantastically squeaky guinea pig who is also about 1.5 years old, and quirky, and cute and loud! But currently Geddy does not like him very much.
This is Geddy when he found his way onto my coffee table.
We would love to make friends and talk to other bunny-slaves:hearts out there!
