Thought I would just start a home threadfor my 2 girls
By the way I'm Jasmine, 22, a college graduate in her first "real " job.
The story of how I got them:
Smurfy
My 21st birthday was coming, and I wanted fancy mice. So my boyfriendsaid he would buy them for me, so we went hunting for them in an areawith a number of pet shops. Now there was this shop with many babybunnies, they were really cute and he convinced me to get the bunniesinstead, because he didnt really like mice. Thats how I ended up with 2baby bunnies. I named them Smurfy and Cookie. They were labeledas dwarf anggora rabbits and the pet shop owner said they were bothmale.
They were really adorable rabbits and my family, though annoyed at mebringing animals home suddenly, warmed up to them pretty soon. I didntknow much about bunnies at all, and surfed the internet for all sortsof information. Sadly Cookie was found dead in her cage oneafternoon when we got home. My dad said he might have been sickly allalong because he was less active than Smurfy. I was devastated ,and to cheer me up my boyfriend got me another bunny from the same shop.
I never got to naming her. 2 weeks after I got her, I woke tofind her rolling about in her cage. She was very distressed and keptgrinding her teeth. She stopped breathing just when I was getting readyto go to the vet. She was active and heathy up to that point. Icried and cried and it didnt help that my friends were labling me as"rabbit killer" since I managed to lose 2 babies in such a short time.They meant it as a joke but it certainly was not funny to me.
