no worries really. She will not be rehomed. My grandmother signed a well kinda like contract with me and my parents signed saying i can keep BOTH of my buns and that they will never be forced out of the house. She wont go back on that. I am sry to disapoint u that u wont get her, but there are alot of homeless rabbits out there that also need new homes and well ur rabbits are really lucky to have u. again i am sorry.

here is the new cage:

Also wanted to add that these little babies will grow and when they are too big for the new cages, what will happen then? Will they need to be rehomed then?

Well I hope it actually works for the buns sake this time. That's all I'm gonna say on this matter.

There are lots of buns out there that need a forever home, and sometimes we have to struggle to provide that for them.

We can only hope that this will all work out for the best.
 
nope then ill just add to the cage and buy more NIC. When they become 6 months they will be spayed and nuetured so they will be able to reunite into one cage which will be alot easier then 2 cages. These guys i plan to keep till there time. I have another vet apt in a week to check the bacteria that was in their tummy. I really care for my pets i rescued these two from a bad breeder and raised them since 4 weeks. Some people told me they would likely die and they haven't. I am willing to pay for these pets and understand the responsibity. I have had many pets. I had a ferret for 8 yrs until she died of a tumor in her neck. I understand they are going to get big, and that doesnt bug me i can always let them have free roam of the room when they are older and better potty trained. My room is always locked and they would be safe. I have bunny proofed my room.
 
I though allergies and asthma was the main issue here, not cage sizes? What happens if whoever has the allergy/asthma gets bad and you have to rehome? I'm sorry, but none of you're "rehoming stories" are adding up.
 
Cage sizes just came into the mix cause i didnt have a cage big enough for the flemish. Alergies and Asthma is my 2 cousins and one of my aunts. I do not have either. The rabbits are in my room, but when my cousin sleeps over she is in the room next to mine and there is a connecting vent. I've closed the vent but her annal mother loves to complain but has stoped since its only 2 rabbits and not 7 animals living in my room.The allerges and asthma are bad already, but ive paid for and keep paying for my rabbits which allows me to keep them. And as for my rehoming storied 3 of my rabbits went to my friend in southern IL and my 2 Guineas went to my Friend here in chicago and the Hamster went to one of my Friends siblings. I rehomed cause my grandmother who owns the house i lived in didnt want me having so many animals in the house because of family member with the asthma and alergies. I am sorry if this isnt adding up. I am in alot of pain becuase i had to give up my furbabies i love animals and i have ever since i was little. I really dont want to explain myself cause i really am not in the best of moods due to these fights and rehomeing. I cried when they all left and when i wake up and get rdy to feed everyone and realize they arent there anymore i feel like crap. I am trying to morn in my own way and i am one who doesnt really show there feelings. I feel like a part of me is missing. I am not lieing i hope no one thinks i am. I find this forum one of the places where i can be me and not be judged. I am so used to being judged i cant stand it anymore. This week has sucked ass. I am so tired angry confused sad and all i want to do is try to stay positive. NONE OF MY 2 BUNNIES IN THE COMING YEARS WILL BE REHOMED! I am keeping them with me. I dont want to rehome them. I am extremely attached to them. I just dont know how else i can explain myself to prove this.....
 
I understand that you want to keep your animals. I really do. I also understand that with the way your life is and where you live that even with the best of intentions you may not be able to in the coming days, weeks, months, years.... I don't think you are comprehending the gravity of the situation you are putting your pets in. Sometimes it stinks to be under others' rules but when living with others in their home, you must respect their wishes. You are being responsible by paying for your rabbits care but responsibility means also making decisions that you may not like but doing it for the best for yourself, your pets, and everyone involved. I know that in your situation you would like to believe this agreement will hold true but honestly, I don't believe it. I think in a matter of time these 2 giant rabbits are going to be a nuisance to your family. They are only going to get bigger, shed more, go through molt (which will prob put your grandmother back on the rehoming issue)... There are so many issues. Sometimes we have to care enough for the ones we love that we make sacrifices that hurt us but benefit them in the long run. I don't think you are a bad person hun but I think you are in a no win situation. Please consider this. And believe me I am not judging you but judging your situation.
 
I know. But trust me ive had ferrets and kept them for 8 yrs and if u've ever had a ferret ull know the smell that comes with them. My family was ok with the ferrets. We have 4 dogs also and animals is something my family enjoys. The rabbits my grandmother actually likes. She says they never smell and she loves how they poop balls. I will be moving out soon and they will go with me. I know that keeping them is ok and right for me to do. I can have these rabbits. I have the time money and love to give them.
 
I am glad you are willing to make the cage larger....but will the top cage be strong enough to hold a full grown flemmie if they don't bond?

Also....will they be able to have playtimes?

Tiny had a cage about that size as a youngster...but was only locked up if we all left the house or went to bed...it was too small for him to live in.
 
I am willing to make it bigger and i am still working on it making it stronger.They have playtime 3-4 hrs a day. and when the get bigger it will be more since they should be litter trained.
 
If granny can keep her 150 lbs dog i can keep my 2 13 lbs rabbits. And her dog is the more messy one lol and he has 3 sheds a year which i have to brush. The 4 dogs might not be mine but i take care of all of them.
 
I'm so glad that you all care so much for the welfare of the rabbit involved.

Sara received *2* offers for her rabbit's care.

I just wanted to mention, that there are plenty of flemish in the Chicago area on petfinder!
