Hey Dawn, I posted a thank-you to youbefore, but it didn't seem to 'take'!
:imsorry:
These bunnies can never thank you enough for putting the rescue in motion!
:hug::thanks:
I've said it before, but these guys were the ultimate candidates, this truly was a 'rescue'.

For the people not following the saga, it was Dawn/Aurora who first brought them to the attention of the forum, and thus me. She dealt with their 'keeper' and even picked them up and delivered them here! The above link has pics of the conditions they were being kept in. :cry1:
Personally, I'm still not sure whether to kick you or kiss you, I hadn't really planned onfour rabbits, andPipp ate YET anothermouse this morning (she found the only 1/4 inch gap in the wire cover) soat that point I didn't want ANY rabbits! :tantrum:
But alas, I love them all! :sigh
Radar was supposed to be a foster bunny, and not even MY foster bunny, but the friend who was originally supposed to be fostering him lives in my basement, and he just sort of gravitated upstairs and now he's family.
Dill is living in my spare bathtub, ideally he can come and go as he pleases, but he hasn't got the 'come' part down yet. He just goes.I have to put him back in the tub and block it off.
I just got through a HORRIBLE molt with Pipp. It clogged up everything, including my computer.
(The repair guys have a picture of all the hair inside the case on their 'wall of shame'). :embarrassed:
Darry and Radar have my roommate's room (he's away) as well as the designated bunny room, sothe cubes haven't been used other than as blockers, but I'd love to have them in a cage in the bunny room, even if the door stays open. Yet another thing on the 'todo' list. (Making room in the bunny room is more of an issue than building the cage).
I did promise Lisa from SARSBC (Small Animal Rescue) that I'd foster a little dwarf, so that still may happen, although that means an NIC cage in the living room, and keeping everybody apart. But we'll see. I really seriously can only
foster the dwarf, because I'm renting my place and at some point I will be moving, and five bunnies are a hard sell for landlords and strata councils.
I'm still hoping I'll be able to give up Dill, Lisa has the perfect family lined up for him, but I dunno about that. :cry2
And Jan, I had no intention of keeping Dill or Darry, butDill is such an awesome bunny, and now Darry has bonded with Radar, so.... Which actually makes me feel worse, because it would be so easy to find another home for Dill (as long as they're bunny-savvy and don't make him mad!) and probably Darry, too (she rather suddenly came out of her 'shell' and is outgoing, fearless, friendly, and has great litter habits). And then I could take in a bunny (or two) who wasn't as easy to rehome and I'd feel more like I was helping out.
So bottom line, I have failed miserably as a rescuer!! :banghead
And I'm totally insane. :craziness
Edit for PB: LOL! Dill is quite the biter, he'll latch on to the closest body part, he chomped on my thigh, luckily whileI was wearing jeans -- when I was trying to convince him to eat some pumpkin! --so I'm going to be very respectful! And yes, Pipp wants to be an ONLY bun. She drew the line a loooong time ago. But she's not too bad as long as the thinks that I'm HER only bun.
sas :lookaroundand pipp :bunnybutt:
