Oh wow! Spoiled bunnies!

How are the reacting to eachother so far?

They are absolutely adorable bunnies.
 
Oswald is absolutely FREAKING OUT. Right nowhe's downstairs calming down and my boyfriend is watching him. Hoppityseems just fine. He's munching on his pellets and sitting quietly inhis litter box. *sigh* I'm so worried for my poor Oswald though, Heseems so upset . . .

Here's a close-up of Hoppity

Aww..I didnt see this!

He is just too cute!Sweet little Oswald, he's a jealous boy :)

Will you try their cages next to one another for a bit or move them apart?

Hoppity is so cute..something about him reminds me of Tumnus. Whats his personality like, is he a love-bun or still shy?

Oh, and I looked at the website for the rescue place where you got him,did you see that cute little dutch girl they had? Lola, I think? I wanther! :-( Too many bunnies..not enough sanity.


 
I actually just disassembled one of the boxesthat I used when I moved and put the cardboard in between the twocages. Oswald seems fine when he can't see Hoppity. I'm going to removethe cardboard for a while each day slowly increasing the time they areexposed to eachother.

When one is out in the bedroom the other will be out in the bunny pen downstairs. I'll keep this up until after Oswald's neuter.

Hoppity is still a bit shy, but he seems curious about things. He'sVERY calm. So far he's mostly been sitting quietly in his litter boxobserving things. He really doesn't seem to mind Oswald at all.

I did see Lola. She's a new arrival. I think they said she came in Monday? She seemed very sweet.

The Animal Rscue League has such a nice area for their rabbits. Theyhave a whole room to themselves unstairs near all the administrativeoffices, away from all of the noise of the dogs and cats. They are eachkept in a nice sized cage and they each get let out to run for at leaston hour every day. I'm planning to volunteer there after I get used tomy new class schedule.

EDIT:

Also, my boyfriend named the huge rabbit enclosure the USS Rabbitprise. He wants to change Hoppity's name to Warf . . . *sigh*
 
haha Warf?! thats a unique one. I canhonestly say I dont think anyone else would have that name! :) Howbout Harvey (Harvey and Oswald.lol)

Good idea on the cardboard! I like the idea of removing it a little ata time. Its nice this way bc they can get used to eachothers scent.

Thats great about the shelter too! I wish more were that accomodating for their rabbits..maybe someday...

Anyway, keep us posted on how he's settling in!
 
Aww dont change his name :(It says on the story about him not to ;)Its a cute name!

He looks very settled in. Bless him sitting in his litter boxall the time :DMine sometimes lay in theirs! Thats when youstart to worry!

Oswald is such a great name! I love it!
 
Aww Hoppity is so cute. I really like the blueNIC tiles. I don't know if it's just me but the blue seems to make iteasier to see inside and is less distracting to the eye than the blackor white ones. Hopefully, given some time, Oswald will warm up toHoppity.

Congratulations on the new addition!
 
The women who works with the rabbits suggested that we rename Hoppity because Oswald has such a "unique" name.

We've selected the name Alfred.

So, from now on Hoppity shall be called Alfred.

He certainly is a dignified little chap.

Alfred and Oswald... awww. Sounds like a perfectmatch. I'm sorry to hear about little Oswald! I hope he calms downsoon. He must be thinking: "Intruder! Intruder! Hello mom, can't yousee there's another man here trying to take over MY turf? Why aren'yyou DOING anything about it?"

:D Hope all goes better with him today.
