Most of you know my story. I had 2 buns that had a oops litter. Together I have 5 buns, 3 babies, mom and dad.
I had no luck finding GOOD homes for the babies so I decided to keep them. I will not post on craigslist ever again after a weird experience I had. Its becoming so much for me. No one in my house helps with the rabbits, no one feeds them, cleans them or even plays with them anymore (STUPID PLAYSTATION, thats another rant). I'm starting to become really stressed. Its hard working a full 8hrs, rushing home, making dinner, cleaning the house, feeding the buns, cleaning the buns, playing with the buns, feeding the kids, cleaning the kids, doing study/homework.. its a lot for me. My husband see's them as MY pets and really wont help. I mean, if I ask him to do something he will, but its not done with the best of attitudes so i'd rather not. I'm pretty independent and dont like asking for help, especially if I get dirty looks. So I have been manning this all on my own. The babies will be 6 weeks on Sunday (they arent ready yet) the thought of rehoming 1 or 2 babies has been crossing my mind a lot lately. I have asked a few people and they are all excited and agree they want a baby.. but then when I tell them how to care for the baby and how I expect them to listen they run for the hills and tell me "its just a rabbit" SO they arent the right people. I feel guilty, these feel like my children.My son starts Kinder on August 20th, and i'm sure even more of my time will be focusing on his learning and what not.
I dont know how to find good bunny homes. Ive tried so many different ways.. word of mouth, craigslist (never again), asking at my job, having my husband ask at his.. no one is willing to care for a rabbit the correct way!
Then I look at my babies and I get sad I feel like i'm in the wrong for rehoming, but I dont know what else I can do. I wont even go there with the nasty comments the rest of my family makes. I have gotten into a few arguements with IGNORANT family members. Calling my house a barn, saying I should just quit my job and tend to my rabbits..
My husband doesnt really have any advice other than if you're going to rehome them find good homes. Gee, ya think?
Any advice you can give is more than appreciated.
