So, as the story goes, this past Saturday (ST. Patrick's Day) my girlfriend and I were waiting for one of her friends to get out of work, so we decided to stop in at a family owned pet store in the area. (Laconia Pet Store, Laconia, NH)
We looked at the fish and birds just to pass the time, then we got this small black adorable little Norwegian Dwarf bunny, he's so cute just laying there looking on at my girlfriend and I. Couldn't help but to ask one of the employees to unlock the cage so we could hold him and play with him.
Instantly fell in love with how adorable and especially calm he was. The pet store put together a packaged deal for us including everything that we needed. (cage, hay, water bottle, pellet holder, etc.. and ofcourse the bunny ! )
We couldn't bring him home to our apartment that night because we were staying at her friends apartment visiting. (We live in Haverhill, MA)
That night went by ever so slowly as we waited and waited for the night to by and it finally did :biggrin:
Got to the pet store and picked him up, they had everything ready to go as they promised. They gave us a box with some hay and mulch for the car ride, but my girlfriend couldn't resist holding him. Surprisingly, he did VERY well on the car ride, wasn't jumping around or trying to crawl all over the place. He did get a little adventurous and try to look out the car window so my gf held him to look out a couple of times.
As soon as we got back to our apartment we took him to the local PETCO and bought a travel carrier and a harness because he will be coming to car shows and events with us. He's our new mascot !!
Well, enough of my blabbering, here are some pictures of the little bugger known now as Thumper.

I guess he wanted to be a parrot !
when we first saw him =]
where he sleeps (he gets run of the house when me or my gf are home)
