Jim and Chester's Blog - The Cute fluffy babies!

[crystal]

I haven't been on here for a few days.... I am so pleased to see Jim is feeling much better! You took very good care of him

He has amazing blue eyes, he's going to be a big handsome boy one day I think.

 

[nikitanain]

Thank you Crystal.. Actually he has gray eyes, either ways I always wanted a kiddo with light colored eyes... *grinning*

 

[mistyjr]

He's an handsome baby bunnies.. But soo sorry about the other one.. They look like they are Flemish Giants... But anyways.. Are you giving the bunny any baths?? I was just wondering because the baby in the picture looks like its wet.. But, Baths is not good for them.

 

[nikitanain]

Thanks..

No I have not given Jim any baths since I am aware that they are not good for rabbits.. In the last 3 pics I had wet the area near his nose a little bit since he had stained that area with yellow medicine.. I had also spiked his hair up with my fingers (no water, no gel) just to make him look cute... :biggrin:

Here are some pics.. Jim is growing up fast, he is becoming a healthy lil fella

With his fav ball...

I'm so happy Jim is doing much better! He's such a cutie. Looking forward to watching him growfrom your bloggings. How old is he?

 

[nikitanain]

Thank you

I do not know his exact age but I have been told that he is around 2 months old (as of today)

I'm happy to hear that Jim is doing so much better now..he sure is a cute lil guy...love his sweet face..

So sorry to hear about Chester though..that is so sad.

 

[nikitanain]

Thank you Cheryl.. Unfortunately I come bearing bad news...

Jim was limp yesterday morning, he couldnt keep his head straight nor could he sit up.. In an hour he died...

He was fine the night before, he ate dinner and slept as always...

I hate death and I hate this feeling .. I wish there was something I could have done.. I cannot understand what happened...

 

[Pipp]

Oh no, I was just checking to see how Jim was... I was going to comment on his pretty eyes.

So sorry. :sad:

I think both he and Chester just came from a bad place and were too young to fight off all the things that can make bunnies sick.


:rip: Jim


sas :tears2:

 

[nikitanain]

Thank you..

I think that both of them dint get enough mother's milk hence they had a weak immune system.. Plus the bad handling and unhealthy conditions they were kept in made things worse..

I have half a mind of going to that store and giving that seller a piece of my mind, but then I feel that if he had the heart to keep baby bunnies in such a condition then he wont care about what i say!!

It's sad, but he just wants the sales. Its so hard to see bunnies like that. But by giving him money you're giving him what he wants.

Is there an organization that protects animals? Or a rabbit rescue? Usually they're the only ones who can make a difference. They will seize or rescue bunnies but not pay for them.

They were such sweet little bunnies. They really deserved a better start in life.


sas :sad:

 

[nikitanain]

As of now there is no organization in India who will seize animals that are mistreated.. That's the reason I pick up these animals..

There is a school of thought that says " dont pick up these animals since it will encourage these sellers".... But there is another school of thought that says " if you dont pick up the existing animals, they will die in no time"

I am usually torn between what to do, but today I picked up a healthy 12" flemish giant from a nice store.. The store guys were treating their animals well and the cages were clean...

I shall upload pics of him (Leonard) in another thread

 

[kirbyultra]

So sorry for your losses. It is a very unfortunate situation. You did the best that you could for them.

But...Here's to wishing your new flemmie lives a long healthy binkiful life with you!

 

[nikitanain]

Thank you

 

[NorthernAutumn]

I'm so sorry that you have lost these two little ones, Nikita. i'm confident that they really enjoyed their time with you, though. You made a bunny paradise for them :hug:

Looking forward to pictures of you and Leonard...urplepansy:

 

[tonyshuman]

I'm so sorry. It must be awful to see animals in such bad conditions, and then to try to save them, but have the damage already be done. You took very good care of your guys, and I know they were lucky that you took them home.

I'm glad you were able to find a healthy bunny, though!

 

[JimD]

I'm so sorry that you lost Jim
