Well, I guess a hello is in order!
I just happened upon this site when I was doing some last minute research this evening. I'm going to be a new bunny owner in just a matter of days (if not sooner!) and I am excited to have found this site before bringing my soon-to-be house rabbit home.
To tell you a bit about myself, my name is Lexy and I'm (almost) 31 years old. I live in the midwestern US and work at a busy veterinary clinic. There, I help run the front of the office and also work as a vet assistant. There's nothing I love more than my job, but I've decided that it is time for me to put my love of animals to the test. And, since I live in an apartment that does not allow cats or dogs, I have made the decision to once again live with a house rabbit (my landlord has given me the green-light). And, I'm super excited!
I grew up doing 4H and developed my love of all things bunnies then. And, I had a house rabbit or two all throughout my adolescent and teenage years. But, when I moved out on my own, I never had the time, space, or money to properly take care of a bunny. So, all bets were off and I lived vicariously through our many clients that had rabbits. But, times have changed and I'm now in a position to once again bring a bunny into my life. And, that's exactly what I am planning to do.
I've got the basics set and I'm just waiting to find the right bunny to call my own. I am planning on adopting my rabbit. Unfortunately, we don't always see happy endings at the clinic where I work. A coworker of mine is fostering a number of rabbits and kits that came from someone who no longer could provide care for them. I helped her set up shop for them, but I haven't seen them since. And, there have been some babies added to the mix. I'm planning a visit in the next few days, if not tomorrow, and am going to bring my bunny home following that meet-and-greet. So, magic should be happening in my apartment any day now!
That's me in a nutshell. I feel like I am well-versed in rabbit care. But, how wonderful to have come across a community that shares my love for bunnies?! I am definitely looking forward to getting to know y'all.
So, no goodbye from me - hopefully, you'll be seeing lots of me and my new house rabbit soon!
