Hello everyone
I'm a forum-addict, rabbit-forums in particular so when I found this site I thought it looked intresting (possibly due tot he word "Rabbit" in the title:shock so I figured I'd join in the fun
I live far up norht in the cold Norway, with my father and one younger brother, and of course the bunnies, and soon hopefully a dwarf hamster (recently had a syrian hamster, but she got put down not too long ago and I miss her so much)
As you probably would notice I love rabbits, I am the owner of two wonderful rex-rabbits and plain crazy mixbreed named Zakura the Killer Rabbit...not without a reason.. She got the name after developing a nasty habit of biting during feeding time when she was only 3 months old. As the problem just got worse and worse, I had her neutered at the age of two and now finally she isn't quite living up to her name anymore:biggrin2:
Zakura was my first rabbit, and despite the hardships I couldn't dream of parting with her, now come on, who can look at this face and say she's a killer?
As some of you probably noticed the name was inspired by Monthy Python (yeah, and the Zakura-part is from the japanese manga/anime Naruto, I love manga and anime almost as much as I love bunnies, Zakura (or Sakura really...I just prefer to spell it with a Z) means Cherry Blossom in Japanese)
So when I got my second rabbit, I figured he needed a name in the same style too.
His name is Sasuke the Legendary Black Beast. Sasuke is from the same series as Zakura, and he's also named from the Legendary Black Beast of AAAAARGH from Monthy Python and the Holy Grail.
And here's why:
He's a standard rex rabbit, so I thought the Legendary Black Beast fit him well cept for the beast-part...he's an angel! An extremely lazy angel it seems I used to keep him indoors in a pet shop cage but he refused to come out of it...besides the thumping on the plastic floor made me mad so I built him a run instead:biggrin2:
And I'm actually quite proud of the outcome:
Even though he still makes some noise at night...particularly at 3 AM, he likes to nibble on the inside of his house...I need to sort that out somehow if I'm ever going to get a good night sleep again (and since it's the middle of winter...moving him out is out of the question!)
My third (most hyperactive) rabbit has the long fancy name Vestkystens Romance told by Aroma, and for once I didn't name her Aroma or Roma for short.
She's a young rex rabbit (which may explain why she's plain nuts) and brown sable. I actually got her from far across to almost the other side of the country, just because I had decided I wanted a sable:biggrin2: and I never regretted that.
She's a beautiful girl in all ways, very kind, except to Zakura...
The girls both live outside in hutches (now with run extensions) but I have to keep them separate since they keep trying to bite each other through the bars
I am hoping to breed Sasuke and Aroma soon, but the cage Aroma is in is unfit for breeding (the cage itself is too small and the run has too wide bar openings, so young rabbits will easily slip through) so I am waiting for my dad to finish the cages he promised me IN JUNE:? Sasuke carries sable, which is why I set my eyes on a sable doe if I'm lucky, both rabbits may even carry blue! (I know Sasuke is, since his father was blue sable)
I can't help but wonder how the activity level on the kits will be, Sasuke being so lazy and Aroma so insane... but according to a friend of mine, who used to own Aroma's parents and grandparents, her grandpa was the same way she is now as a youngster, but eventually settled down:biggrin2:
That was me and my crazy fuzzballs:dude: I hope we'll get along nicely and that you don't think I use too many pictures in my post Animal photography is another hobby of mine...
