Well so much has happened since I last updated!

Lucy rabbit had to be put to sleep as she had cancer, she was suffering so it was the kindest thing to do. My two boys (2 & 3) were really upset and didn't quite grasp the concept that she wasn't coming home.

Three weeks later and I noticed that Lola wasn't eating as she usually did. I took her to the vet and she had a chest infection and a tummy full of gas. That night I brought her home and nursed her with water and liquid food. Next day she was no better so it was back to the vet. On closer inspection he also found spurs on her teeth, so she was admited and had them filed down. Lots more nursing with liquid food and water followed and she seemed to be picking up on the bank holiday monday. Then that night she died in her hutch.......:(

So I am down to 4 bunnies now! Charlie is loving the extra attention and has become quite a mummys boy! While Lola was poorly he had to live in the run in the garden as I didn't have any hutch space available. The weather was good and he loved it!

Losing a bunny so young is really sad.



The babies are 6 weeks old now!!!! I can't believe how fast the time has gone and how big they all are!

This is Katie, she is sooo cute! I love her to bits already.Katie has a small frame more likeLola than Charlie. She also looks likeshe willhave a Lionhead mane! She is very inquisitive, and just loves a cuddle!

She has been offered about 3 homes so far and my answere is always NO! Her namesake has just left for Bulgaria....:bigtears:We have been friends for 8 years and I miss her already.......

This is Pebble! We still don't know the sex of pebble, even the vet couldn't tell, its very odd! I will post pics of his/her bits and you can all take a look LOL!

IMG_9674.jpg


Pebble is just like mum and dad in colour! He/she is quite shy and gets a bit stressy if the other babies are not with him/her.



This is Snowy. She is the largest of the babies. She is always busy, busy, busy.

IMG_9670.jpg




I love them all to bits!



I've just ordered a larger hutch for them (the one mentioned further up never arrived!) so I just need to decide who lives with who! So far it's Snowy and Katie together as they are both girls (I will have them both spayed) but I feel really sorry to leave pebble alone......would three bunnies live together? Obviuosly we need to find out what sex he/she is first!



And last but by no means least Charlie! He is in a right grump this morning! I went to stroke him and he nipped my finger!!!! Cheeky boy! Look at the state of his hutch! He is soo messy, he does his business in his litter box then he tips it up...:pullhair:

He spends every day in the run and he can't tip the cat box, but he does move everything else he can! Then he goes to bed in the hutch every night, clean when he goes in and a mess every morning.....bit like my boys rooms really! LOL

So thats my bunnies to date! Charlie, Katie, Snowy and Pebble. Binky free at the bridge Lola and Lucy....



I spotted an orange lop doe for sale at the breeder....sooooo tempted! Her name is Sindy........at Tor view lops......

I am thinking about it!She is approx 12 months oldso I wouldhave her spayed straight away. The vethas cost a fortune this month alreadyso I think hubby would have a heart attackif I brought another home! I am a bit sad though I hate even numbers! 5 is much better than 4 don't you think??

Binky free Lola and Lucy :rose:

I want Pebbles :tongueThey are all sooooooooo cute! They sure seem to be growing quickly...:lookaround
 
oh my gosh, cuteness factor 10!! i just squealed out loud from the cuteness and got a strange look from the cat lol all your bun buns are gorgeous, but i think lucy is my favourite. she's like a giant lump of chocolate-y cuteness :)

babies rabbits are so adorable, i can't believe my big fat ludo once looked like that! argh, it's just too cute to handle!!
 
I know Lucy was such a good looking girl! I really miss her coat it was so soft, almost like velvet!

I might be tempted to get another Rex in the future, maybe a mini rex?

Sarah i am so sorry :bigtears:i'm just reading this now, not been in the blogs much and missed it. big :hug:

Your babies are lovely they grow so quick don't they!!

I can't blame you i would want to keep them too, i love broken magpies i had a dwarf lop like that. beautiful :inlove:

It always happens all together its horrid, its not been a good time lately:(You can always have some of mine:)

You will be able to keep the babies together another couple of weeks any chance of someone helping you get a good pic of the bits on the not sure baby if you post it in the rabbitry we might be able to help figure out gender. Make sure that you press above and below so the bits pop out it gives the best idea on the gender:)


 
Hello

Thanks Polly I will try and get a good pic of pebbles bits! I have moved him/her into a seperate hutch and he/she is getting extra love and cuddles! It's very odd as I press down nothing at all seems to pop up? Even the vet couldn't figure it out.....

Any way here they are!

Pebble! In his/her own little hutch. He is a real chewer like his mummy was, willow sticks are reduced to matchsticks in a couple of days! I must try some cheaper alternative than pets at homes £1.99 a go jobs! I have tryed cherry and hes not having any of it!

IMG_9821.jpg


Snowy! This little one is such a monkey! She is the first with her nose in the food bowl and she absolutly loves a cuddle...when you can catch her LOL! She is by far the largest now of the three.

IMG_9831.jpg


Katie Rolo This little treature was named after my best friend who has legged it to live in a massive house in bulgaria........LOL I miss her so much but I can't wait to swim in her pool next year LOL!

IMG_9825.jpg


Katie is a sweetheart, she loves to sit on my boys laps and be fussed! I think she is sooo pretty, her fur has gone all grey around her mane now for some reason?? Still pretty though and ever so small compared to the other two! She lives with Snowy and I have just moved them into the smaller double hutch as they were weeing in their bedroon.... and staying out in the cold all night, naughty girls! Anyway they are not doing that in the smaller hutch! Back to their litter box and sleeping in their beds!

Sorry the photos are so big! I must try and resize them.....I forget to do this everytime, hey big is better!

Wow they got big :DAnd sooooooooooo gorgeous get a good close up and post it in the rabbitry the breeders should be able to tell you its easier if one person pushes it out and one takes pic:p

Is there a new addition yet? any news?
 
'mushroom' has had a tough time and is still with the vets......I can't wait to collect her! She is a lop eared monster by the looks of her, she should keep Charlie in check! Can't describe her colour very nice but a bit odd looking? Fawn mainly with bits of dark brown and black flecks... I am pants at this kind of recognition!

Fingers crossed for tomorrow!!!!!!

Polly keep me posted about Sky..........I do hope she finds a nice home, maybe if she doesn't you can bring her with you on your travels and I will meet you ;) In fact let me know nearer the time and I might just arrange to meet you anyway!
 
I will certainly keep you posted on what happens. Brucehas started trying to sex the babies at the mo we have 4 girls and 1 buck from Miffy and 2 bucks from Squishy but like thats gonna be right lol. He just took piccies so i will get them on at some point over the weekend.

And if Sky is stilll here in Jan i will bring her to Bradford to meet you if you go:)i know its like the last weekend in Jan (well i am almost sure:p)

Sounds like she might be harlequin but hard to tell without pics,
 
Right my dear come on whers the pics you promised seen as i see you have been online:pI need to know all the story and the pics :biggrin2:
 
Hi honey!!

Soooo sorry!

Mushroom came home that day and she is doing really well! She was dumped at the vets in a cardboard box bless her. She was obviously uncared for (but loved once as she was spayed??) and she had a few health problems, she was underweight and dehydrated, and she had a chest infection.

She is a lovely girl but Charlie just doesn't 'like' her and I am scared he will hurt her and I think she has had enough stress this last few months to last a life time. She is litter trained and is very friendly!

I haven't been on the computer for a while, the whole family had been ill for the last two weeks! We've had a really nasty tummy bug (just think of the washing.....two small boys being sick every where! ahhhh!!!!) and then we've got a nasty cold plus my eldest has impertigo yet again......nightmare! plus I am now working full time as a childminder, some days I have four little ones to look after, once they've gone home I am ready for bed!

I promise, promise, cross my heart I will post some pics tomorrow (camera at my sister-in-laws) at the mo!

How is sky? I would love to take her.........

Oh Hon i totally sympathise it is going about :vomit:Everyone has had it up here too (i got the cold instead)

:bigtears: Poor little thing its such a shame when that happens, i always wonder if they realise that they aren't loved anymore and it kills me, thats why i'm kinda funny on who gets mine!

And onto that Sky is still here, perhaps if you were closer and had more time (or even if you don't :biggrin2:)you could have brought him up for a bunny date. I know i have someone wanting one of them to partner the other bun she got from me who is now knackerless :shock:but i have a funny feeling he is gonna get on better with JJ just personality wise

Look forward to the pics.

Here's one of Skye just for you :D

:bed: This is me at the minute! My yougest (always been very cute but real hard work!!) has started to get up two/three times a night.......hubby is an arse and gets up when he really has too (in other words when I threaten divorce!) so I am absolutlyshattered!!!!! My throat is killing me and it's a sheme its a hallowene party we are going to next week not a christmas one because I would make a fab rudolph! MY nose is luminous!

Glad you missed the tummy bug :vomit:it's badddddd! I even refused to have morning sickness when I was pregnant, LOL I hate being sick soooo much!!!



And as for Sky........:heartbeat:early next year if you still have her..........

I will try and gets some pics of pebble too, I have to get my sister-in-law to help as hub only has to look at the bunnies and he is a mess (totally alergic!) I feel like he/she is a boy, bad toilet habits!!!! The girls (Katie and Snowy) are both litter tray trained, Charlie is too now he is nutless!



How are you anyway? Any fancy dress parties to go too next week? I have spent the last week trying to find a 'cool' and not too scary Hallowene costume for a kids/adults party......finally settled on a witch with scary hair (shouldn't be too hard!) nice hat, spider glove from tesco and a spider face (to match the kids spider outfits from Asda! I will post some pics after the event should be funny! Even better than my face paint pic on the site!



Speak soon

Sarah x
 
Oh dear thats a nightmare you need some Echinacea for all of you to boost those immune systems!! you will need to put in earplugs and just kick hubby till he gets up:D

If you are still seriously wanting her then i would keep her for you:)

Im not going to any party's that i know of sometimes they get sprung on me last minute. I hope you all have fun now go catch some major zzzzzzzzz's!!
 
Here she is!!!!

img_98952-1.jpg

oh so you got 2 new bunnies lol. she looks really cute did you do the face painting?

And the bun is gorgeous, she will be looking great staying with you:)how is she? is she nervous or anything?
 
Noooo my neighbour did it, she good isn't she! This is one of her first attempts since she did a course at collage, many years ago LOL!

Mushroom is very sweet with the boys, she isn't keen on being held or petted on your knee but she will hop over to you and have a stroke and a tickle! She is litter trained already which is fantastic!

As for Sky if I get mushroom bonded with Charlie maybe she would go with Pebble the pest once his bits are fixed! Right now tho I am up to three hutchs and it is starting to be a hasstle now the weather has turned to keep ontop of them, I wouldn't want any more! If I had a shed like yours I would be in seventh heven I think! So in short if you can find her a good home send her away with a huge kiss from me!!!! If you don't by the time your heading down south I will definatly take her from you!
