Welcome From another Lion Head Fan.
Jordan is gorgeous. Love her mane and just love her markings on each side of her nose. Just perfect.
Look forward to learning more ab out Jordan.

BTW, I have rabbits that love to watch TV with me too.
I adopted my rabbit through PetSmart via the Humane Society. She was in a fairly small glass aquarium, one much smaller than her hutch. She had a food bowl, a water bowl, a basket similar to the one in her current hutch, and a toy.
She had nowhere to escape from the very bright, very harsh florescent lighting. There were dogs all around her. They were barking loudly. She flinched every time.
I felt so bad for her. She was terrified. So without a second thought I adopted her.
The first few months with her SO bad. She would hardly move, eat, drink, play with toys, etc. She basically wouldn't let me touch her at all. She would grunt and growl if my hand became too close.
She's still really skiddish and easily frightened. It takes her a long time for her to warm up to people. I'm really the only who that she'll allow to hold. She's not really a "lap pet". But she doesn't mind being held by me.
She's really shy, but also really super playful/energetic at the same time. When I let her out of her cage she's hardly ever in the same spot. She loves to run around, thump her feet, jump and flip about. She likes to explore (go behind my dresser, into closets, under my bed, etc.). She's out of her cage most of the time. I have a Jack and Jill bedroom (two bedrooms joined by a bathroom). So she has a lot of space to run around in. She also never chews on wires or things she's not supposed to. Very well behaved. She'll often snuggle with me on my bed (like a dog, haha). She'll nudge me or nip at me if I don't pay attention to her. Which stinks when I'm trying to sleep.
She's litter trained very well. She goes potty in 3 main places: her litter box, at the top of the ramp in her hutch (not too much), and a corner of my room (thankfully out of site between too piece of furniture).
I'm just not sure about her past. I don't know why she was given up or how long she was at petsmart/the humane society. But it seems like she experienced a lot of trauma. I really want to get her a friend, but I'm not sure how she'll warm up to another a rabbit. D:
