After Penelope died, I knew I wanted
another Lionhead. Korr, who was bonded to Penelope, was lonely and
needed a friend. Neither of us was ready for another rabbit right away,
so it was about 6 weeks after Penelope died that I got Amelia.
Knowing I wanted I lionhead, I started to look for the perfect one.
After looking on some breeders websites, I saw a mention for a BEW (Blue
Eyed White) doe. The trouble was this breeder lives in Edmonton. The
CRHC was going there to do some demos for Canada Day, but I wasn't able
to go, so I thought I would not be able to get a rabbit form this
breeder. Lucky for me, Rose is a friend of the breed and I had met her
at Easter through the EARS club. I was talking a bit with her and it
turns out that she was coming down to Calgary that weekend for a wedding
and was willing to bring this rabbit down for me. I did have to ask my
mom, but she was easy to pursue. This happened on Wednesday and I picked
up Amelia on Friday.
Since I was getting her to bond with Korr, I wanted to make sure they
could get along before I decided to keep her 100%. The first night she
was here they were introduced and seemed to get along ok. The next night
I found the perfect name for her and knew then that she was not going
anywhere. Her name comes form Amelia Pond from Dr. Who.
At her first practise, she wasn't too sure about doing agilty. She
wanted to explore everything but the mats and course. By the end of the
night she was starting to do it. At the next event she was at, she flew
around the course and I was shocked that she has that in her. She still
gets a bit scared and wants to turn around, but we are working on it.
With some more practise, she should be beating the big boys.
