Kara!

Just posting what I posted on the other forum and will update about her on here.

I told myself I would not get another bunny. Two is enough. Well that kinda ended when I was at a rabbit show with my boyfriend today. I hadn't seen any signs that said free to good home so I thought I was safe but then I found one.. It said something along the lines of this.

Free To Loving Home!!!
This Netherland Dwarf (chocolate) doe is looking for a new forever home. She is a retired breeder and she was retired 2 years ago. I have since then been trying to find her a good home where she can spend the rest of her years. She needs to go to a home where, with winter coming up, she can be inside and warm or in a warmed barn. Please contact (so and so) or call (phone number) if you are interested.

Something like that, not exactly but the general point.

Well yup I got her. Her name is Kara, which was already her name so we will keep it. (pronounced car-uh) She is a little over 6 years old, her birthday is June 24, 2006. She is very stressed out right now so I put her in her cage and let her be for now. The lady there said she had never been to a show because she was just for breeding and this was her first show going to.. The lady went to feed her yesterday and was doing it quickly because everything there is quick and Kara bit her; BUT she said she had never bit before that. And now when I picked her up to put her in her cage she was struggling and 'screaming' almost, it sounded like a dying cat! So I am going to leave her be to get use to it. She is finally standing up and hopping around the cage looking at things and grooming herself. She is in a temporary cage for now because it is a bit too small for my liking's and I don't like the wire bottoms.

She looks so stressed up there but I am thinking she is feeling better now..

First time eating something at my house. <3

I just put a blanket over her cage or at least the sides because Oliver kept getting on my bed and bugging her through the bars and she DID NOT like that one bit.

You started a blog for her. Yay

Love seeing these pics again of her angry little nethie face (their grumpy faces crack me up)

But wait, is her name Tara or Kara?

 

[daisyandoliver]

Oh shoot. It is Kara. -_- I was in a hurry and must have wrote the wrong thing. >< Can someone change that for me? :/ Long day.

 

[daisyandoliver]

So who can I ask to change the title and the first word there to Kara?

Exploring my bed.

She is beautiful.

So I got her out today to give her a flea treatment because pretty sure she brought more fleas along home with her. I let her roam my bed and she was sniffing and cuddling with things. My dad tried to give her a banana chip and she started boxing at his hand so he just put the chip down in front of her and she ate about half of it then stopped. So we are getting somewhere!

She's a cutie! Congrats! I LOVE the color btw-gorgeous!

 

[daisyandoliver]

Thanks. do you know who can change the name for me?

 

[Bunnylova4eva]

Maybe I_heart_Fraggles or one of the other moderators. I think any of them can do it.

 

[daisyandoliver]

Alrighty thanks. )

 

[I_heart_Fraggles]

What a smushy lil face!

 

[daisyandoliver]

Hehe. Oliver keeps picking on her so she tries to bite him through her cage. :/

[thanks for changing it]

Oh gosh she's so cute. :hearts:

 

[daisyandoliver]

I like that she looks happier.

 

[littl3red]

She does look a lot happier.

My girl needs to eat! Dad is getting another food today to try. The person who had her before had two different foods they fed her we tried one, no go, so were going to try another... :/

 

[daisyandoliver]

Kara is eating! Normal poops now! I'm so happy. She is also warming up to the idea of treats. She finally took a nana chip from my hand today without attacking me. Good progress so quickly! It took Daisy months to trust me. Kara still breathes so heavily when you touch or pick her up.. She snores loudly at night but it also sounds like she has something congesting her chest up.. :/ To the vets we go!

 

[daisyandoliver]

Her cage!

 

[littl3red]

Yay! That's very colorful. And gosh, she's tiny! :hearts:

 

[agnesthelion]

Sounds like she is settling in

 

[daisyandoliver]

She's going to the vet this week for a check up and to make sure she's all right. She's eating and a little calmer. Still hates being picked up though she huffs and puffs so I usually just pet her.

Nice cage! Does she seem to like it?
