So remember how my parents a-okayed for me to get another rabbit? And I was going to get a spayed female and then get Clyde neutered and try to bond them and yada yada? Well..my parents seem to LOVE to change their minds. They don't want another "for whole life commitment". I have no clue why but they don't. Like I mentioned in my other posts I REALLY want another rabbit. Once you have one, its like you can't just have one. Like potato chips!
Anyways..I begged them and I begged them to change their minds, to reconsider, I tried everything to convince them. The only good thing that came out of my begging is that they are going to neuter Clyde for my birthday in April. So..no new Bunny.
However..they did say I could foster a rabbit. They would be willing to do that because it isn't guaranteed to be a lifetime commitment like it would be if I got another rabbit for myself. I've made them aware that I would be caring for the rabbit until it got adopted and that that could take awhile. They are fine with that. *I don't really know what the difference is to them between keeping a rabbit thats mine for its whole life, or keeping a foster for its whole life because no one wants to adopt it!* But hey, my parents brains work differently then mine sometimes.
So, I know there are a few people on here who have fostered buns, what is it like? I want to know what I would be getting myself into if I was fostering a rabbit. I turned an application in online today so I'm waiting for a reply back from the rescue. I just would like to know a general ups and downs kind of thing. It obviously isn't going to be easy and I realize that.
Basically, I just need someone to either talk me into fostering a rabbit, or talk me out of fostering a rabbit.
*I am under 18 so my Mother would *technically* be the foster parent but of course I would be doing the majority of the work with it.*
