Afraid I cant take my bunnys :((

[Mummel]

Im so desperate right now..

My husband just told me that he doesn't want me to bring the bunnies right away..I thought we had an agreement about leaving two and taking 5 :shock: (he thinks its too many bunnies so I would have given 2 away..-which actually I wouldn't really want to do either)

He doesn't want the bunnies to be with us the first time because:

-we will live with my mother in law until we find own housing.

-we will be busy looking for jobs and doing paperwork and then later moving in etc.

My husband says once we are not busy anymore I could have the bunnys sent to the states..but I don't have a place for 5-7 bunnies in germany until then! Shelters and Farms take a lot of money for caring for the bunnies and my husband doesn't want to spend much really.

He doesn't understand why I am so emotionally attached to the bunny's.For him its just bunnies and he told me I should just get new ones in the states <_<

Im thinking my husband hopes that when I leave the bunnies, I will forget about them. :X

Only way I would be allowed to take them is if I would find a shelter/hotel/farm/place for them in NY. Something that is not very expensive...so I am hoping for a miracle actually...

Does anyone know about places for pets? Or maybe even a farmer or person that would be willing to take them in for a while?

These are my bunnies: Moses, Emily, Angel, Susi, Salem, Jasmin, Mia

We fly on the 29th of May.

I have a friend who could have them for a while but not much longer than a month..she would bring them to the airport..meaning the bunnys will fly later than us...

 

[JadeIcing]

Well I will talk to my husband tonight. Maybe my mom.

Are you sure if you get them here he will let you take them back later on?

He told me so, but if I tell him I have someone in mind for the bunny's I would talk about it with him anyway.

I will make sure later at home.

Hopefully things work out. Right now I am packed. If my foster gets adopted things will open up here a bit. As it stands now not sure he would say yes.

JadeIcing, could you ask some of the other people that foster for the same rescue as you? Mummel, are all the bunnies bonded together or are there separate groups?If there's separate groups, maybe somebody could take one group and another person take another group, etc.

Maybe contact the New York HRS too, see if they can help with temporary housing:

Was already going to pass the word around. :bunnydance:Thing is right now we are in desperate need of Foster homes.:?

I am so sorry you are in this situation. All of your rabbits are absolutely gorgeous (of course I have a soft spot for the fuzzy and loppy ones ).

If I was up in NY, I'd take them in a heartbeat for you. Unfortunately I'm in Florida! I bet with the help of this forum you will find something that will work out.

Good Luck!

 

[JadeIcing]

Ok now some details. I may have an idea but first need to know who is bonded. Who isn't. What set up are they used to....

 

[naturestee]

Alicia, I don't have time, but here's another option: pm all members in the New York area. I sorted the member list by location, and here's the 1st page of New York members:

Mummel, I'd hate to see you have to give up your babies. I hope your hubby realizes what they mean to you.

Clicked on New York. Narrow it down alittle.

Oh no how awful....I hate that I am so far away from everyone and can never help with things like this!ullhair:

I hope hope hope somebody here with be able to help!!ray:

 

[Mummel]

Sry I was gone to the vet.

Right now they live in 3 groups but they also can be together after a short bonding time.

Groups

1. Susi, Emily, Mia (lowest rank buns)

2. Jasmin, Moses, Salem (highest rank buns)

3 Angel (crazy bunny)

The bunnys lived outside first and for 8 months they have been inside the house. I used to have them in one big stable but since we move soon I put them in 3 big cages. All Bunnys are easy to handle..no very shy bunnies, no biting.



1 and 2 are fine together..

Angelhad lots of problems with her nose healing and is now a single bunny and very bitchy against the others. Guess she needs spaying so she gets less aggressive. She is fine with the low ranking bunnys but fights with the more dominant ones.

The Groups could be made smaller too..

Thanks for the links..I will check them out.

My hubby should be home soon so i can talk to him...
