New-ish bunny mama!

[Aquariel]

Hello all! I came here seeking advice/a clue about my rabbit's strange behavior. Your community was kind enough to help me out. There's so many wonderful discussions here so I decided to stick around.

My name is Ivory - I'm a nurse anesthetist and married to my husband, a super sexy bunny loving Marine, Andy. He's the reason I now have the second love of my life, Tank.

Tank is a white, red-eyed, 11 month old French lop. I really wanted a pet and thought a cat would fit us nicely: something that can be affectionate without being too big or too loud. Andy asked if we could look at rabbits instead. His mom raises rabbits, and he loves them. I agreed and we went to the animal shelter where we met then 8 week old Tank, and it was love at first sight.

Right now he's being a grumpy butt because we just got our carpets replaced (we think) but usually he's fun-loving, playful and very licky. He loves pineapple, bananas and brussels sprouts. He also loves boxes.

My Honey loves her cardboard box, too. Also 3-5 ft long pieces of brown packing paper. She sits on part, puts another part in her mouth, & rips away. Eventually it's all confetti which goes in her dig box.

Very cute! I also have acquired a New french lop named Franklin. He is now about 8mos old and weighs in at just under 10lbs. How big is yours and I bet it's a huge change seeing him grow up so big I wish I could have had mine when he was young but I love Franklin All the same

He was 5 lbs at 5 months old in that picture. Today he's about 8.5 lbs.

All of ours love card boxes and tubes, but the number play toy of our big boy is a brown grocery bag--think it just might be a lop thing.
