hard at work on it all day now all i got to do is add litter box food and water bowls and some bath tub traction stickers and its done :) and of course as the years go on make it more color full :) :bunnydance:
 
iv had sooo much fun making it u have no idea i have to take the house and the dig box out and figure were bunny wants to do there tinkles and then i can actually put things how there supposed to
 
btw when going to get stuff for the cage there was a lop at the pet store i fell in love with it but im afraid to buy it. it had some missing hair on its ears and im hoping it was just from another bunny that came in with her/him. its soo sweet and just wanted to cuddle. any opinions on getting a pet store bunny ???
 
I'm personally against buying any animal from a petshop. If you want a baby, contact a breeder. Otherwise, there are so many homeless bunnies out their in shelters or on Kijiji and Craigslist. Many of whom started off their lives as petshop bunnies.

Well I am new but I am probably the minority when it comes to thinking its ok to buy from the pet store.

I just bought one a few days with that like you I just fell in love with. He was one of the few that didn't just run away when you got near him. He is an older bunny, They said they have had him a while. The manager estimated he was about 3 months old. But they had about 8 little baby bunnies that everybody ga ga'd over and this guy was all alone in a HALF of a cage. He was separated because he didn't get along with the little bunnies.

When we got him home he seems very happy in his new cage. I made an NiC cage that is about 4 grids by 5 grids and he hops around it. He seems to love to have the extra room from that tiny thing the pet store gave him. Once I bunny proof my upstairs a bit more I hope to have him out of the cage a lot and roaming about. He already seems to have adapted to mostly using his litter box.

Like PP mentioned...CL and adoption places are "pet store bunnies" normally anyway so you are just cutting out the middle man. Even though I think its great to adopt, I would say giving a bunny a loving home is what is most important no matter where he/she came from.

Anyway...Cage is great! Hope you can make a decision that is best for you. Would love to see updates as you get them. :D
 
i cannot adopt him/her until the store has the vet look at it. it has lost more hair with is most likely mights. i cant bring a bunny with mights home i have a cat and a dog and that would just be a out brake and i cant afford that.
 
Lovely NIC cage! I know what you mean- I had two bunnies- Benji, who is still with me, and Pippin who I have missed every day since the day he went to the rainbow bridge :(. Benji is a rescue bunny, and I always advocate getting from a shelter for the reason funnybunnymummy said, but I was buying food and I happened to see Pippin in my local store. It's probably the best pet store in the country- certainly the biggest and they seem to care very well for their animals (the animals are always well cared for in LARGE pens etc. and much enrichment, and the store won't sell to under 16s without a parent, need a contract thing etc. and they will refuse anyone they don't think is fit, especially with the reptiles and fish- they need to prove they have a viv set up and at the right temp etc), but it still doesn't rule out the problems with genetics etc. pet store animals may have. But I just saw him and fell in love. I forced myslf to leave the shop but 10 minutes later I was tearing back down there to get him, because I had literally fallen in love with him :).
And he never had any problems- teeth were PPERRFFECTTT, which is often not the case with pet store bunnies- and he had never had to go to the vet besides his vaccinations, where he got a full check up anyway. He was a very healthy and happy bunny, and had the NICEST temperement you could want.
