Benjamin's new love

[BethM]

Benjamin got to go on some dates today. The first two didn't go well, he got nipped from both of them. The the third date.....

He met a little girl bunny that is in foster care. She was left in a box by someone's mailbox, along with her brother and sister, then taken to the shelter, now she's with HRS.

He was reserved at first, after his bad dates, but she kissed him almost immediately.
We then added her sister, and the same thing happened with her. They all seemed to get along, and after awhile the first girl groomed Benjamin for quite awhile. Then he tried to hump her, LOL. (He also tried to hump the sister.) We thought he liked the first one better, so we brought her home with us. A new foster home took the siblings, and will try to bond them (the three of them had been housed together).

She is young, not quite old enough to be spayed yet. (Her brother's testicles have only just dropped, he'll be spayed in about two weeks.) She is a Hotot or Hotot mix, pure white with perfect black "eyeliner." She's very small, maybe 2.5 or 3 pounds, and slender. She used her litter box right away.

The only picture I have so far:

She doesn't have a name yet.

She is a cutie and she kissed him on the first date? What a flirt!

 

[BethM]

Yeah, we're still trying to find the perfect name.
We considered Lolita for awhile, as she hasn't hit puberty yet but he's a middle-aged 4, LOL.
She's so pretty, she needs a pretty name.

When I got up this morning, Benjamin was just sitting on his side of the divider, staring at her. I think that's a good sign!

Awww what a sweet girl! Very cute. Good choice, Benjamin How about Lalita? It means "playful" and is of Hindi and Sanskrit origin. I named one of my rats that because I've loved the name for years, but my little Lita wouldn't mind sharing her name with such a pretty bun bun

 

[FelipesMommy]

Lilah?

 

[NorthernAutumn]

Love lolita I don't think there's an RO bunny named lolita yet. She's a beauty, Beth!
Glad that Ben has found his bunwife at last

 

[BethM]

I am considering calling her Opal. Will have to run it by the husband.

 

[Amy27]

We need more pictures!

I love the name Opal.

 

[SnowyShiloh]

Opal is pretty too! Very nice and old fashioned Funny how old fashioned names are kind of trendy right now (a trend I love, by the way), but I've never heard of anyone naming their kid Opal...

 

[BethM]

Opal it is!
I like old-fashioned names, too.


I took some pictures tonight during the good part of the bonding session, will upload them mabye tomorrow.
