I am new here. I currently have 3 bunnies. I can only keep one. Here is a background so you can understand my situation. Last summer my daughter and her friend both got mini-rex baby bunnies. (friends grandmother bought them). Well in the late fall we found out that the 2 bunnies were not both boys... I came home from work to find 4 babies in the cage. I told my daughter that her friend can not bring her rabit over to play any more (both girls are 12). The other girls step father took the 5 babies for the 4-H club that he is apart of. ! week later I came home from work to find 5 babies in the cage...:X...I asked when the other rabbit was over and was told he came over to play with his babies but she put him into the cage with ours while they played with the babies by themselves. (they believed that the only way that the female can get pregnant was in the males cage)... Well about 3 weeks after the babies were born the mother passed away (i believe that it was because of the 2 pregnancies so close together). We bottle feed the babies until they were able to eat on their own. We eventually had to seperate them since I DO NOT WANT any more...lol... One lives in our upstairs bathtub, and the others are in sepperate cages. I was able to find home for 2 of them so I am down to 3. We are keeping one of them, I tried to have the 4-H take them but they have no room. They are all very friendly and play with my cat and kids. I live in a small appartment and already have a resued chinchilla and cat. I am unable to keep the other 2 bunnies. can some one please help me or let me know what i can do about them...the standard advice i keep getting is let the go in the wild...well i know that they will not survive on there own out there...I would love to keep them but because of the lease here i am on the verge of getting evicted if i can not find homes for them.....thank you for any infor or help
