New owner

[cocorabbit]

I am a new rabbit owner. I actually am a 'cat person' but started developing really bad allergies to them.
SO I decided to give rabbits a try as an alternative. And guess what... I love them! :biggrin:

They are Coco: female single-mane Lionhead, brown, about 4 months old.
And MoCho: female Hotot-mix, also about 4 months old.

They were already bonded when i got them at a supermarket store... bad idea to buy pets from them, but I only found that out AFTER we took them home. You can see my blog about it: http://cocorabbit.blogspot.com

I would like to welcome you to Rabbits Online, my name is Dave and I am a moderator on the forum. So if I can be of any help please let me know. This is a terrific website for rabbits and their slaves, not only is it very active but also friendly. I am so glad you’re here and I know you will enjoy it.

They are beautiful!

Many bunnies’ recommend their slaves to this site so we may learn of others methods to keeping our furry masters happy.

If you everhave a sick bunny, please post in The Infirmary and include your rabbit's age, breed and health history as well diet and output details leading up to the problem.

Here are somelinks I thought you might find interesting:

*For reference the Library section

*To brag or tell everyone about the antics of your bunny or just to talk about your day here is where to start a Bunny Blog, you can also look back at it later and remember when you had a life before your bunny.

*Now all the bunny’s like talk to each other when we mere slaves aren’t around in the Bunny Chat is the spot to be.

*The House Rabbit Society has a lot of good information on what veggies are safe for bunny’s, etc.

*Here is a link to learn what your furry master is trying to say to you How to Understand Your Bunny's Language

*Rabbits Online also has regional forums , this a good way to find a vet in your area that has experience with rabbits and to find out from other nearby of good sources of rabbit supplies.

The Let Your Hare Down section is for anything non-bunny related.

Here is a link tothat will help you and your bunny to connect, How to Bond with Your Bunny.

Now every forum has rules and ours can be found with this link Rabbits Online Forum Rules. This gives guidelines on what is acceptable, what is not and how we hope everyone will treat each other.

Everyone on this forum loves to see pictures of each other’s bunnies. So if you would like to post a picture this link will help you do that, Upload Photo's to Photo Gallery. Then in the post, you click on the "G" in the tool bar to insert your photo. Many people also use Photobucket. You just copy the img file and paste it into the post.

Don’t hesitate to ask questions and I am glad you have joined rabbits online; I look forward to seeing you around.

SLAVES... haha. Yes, I totally agree with that terminology!! Those cute little bun buns are so naughty and work, but I still love and slave for them!

in fact I'm going to let them out to play now while I clean their cage... grrr.

Just curious... do you seem to be allergic to your rabbits? I am severely allergic to cats and notice my allergy with rabbits as well.

 

[cocorabbit]

No, I'm not allergic to them!

Before we got them, we went to the pet store and i petted the furriest rabbit I could find and then touched my face... but nothing.

After bringing home coco and mocho, so far no allergy.

BUT... I think my cat allergy is an emotional thing. haha.. I know sounds crazy, but growing up we had two cats. When the last one died (and quite tragically I might add), I suddenly became allergic to cats. As the years went on my cat allergy got worse and worse.

But so far so good with the bun buns!
