The Introduction.
I have always wanted to keep a blog about the adventures of my pets. But i have never, really. I would like to read this blog when Lily is 7, more laid back, and slightly less crazy than she is now, i will look back on the adventures of her life.
Lily is 4 months old. She just turned 4 months old yesterday. It's funny how she's only been in my life for 3 months (She was very unfortunately, weaned early, but i will get to that), but i already can't remember what life was like without her. She is always somewhere, either curled under the couch, or getting into trouble somewhere, she's always here.
We'll start off at the breeder's. At that point of time i hadn't known any better about breeders, and felt it was the better option as compared to pet shop bunnies (healthwise). At that point of time, i had not even considered adoption because of my lack of knowledge, but since then i've decided that the next bunny i get will be adopted. But this does not mean that i regret getting Lily.
There were three bunnies. Huddled together in a carrier. All of them were white. One had stripes and and one was a pure white, and then there was Lily. Not white, but not stripey either. She looked like she had had a run in a pile of dust, with grey specks throughout her body but nothing defining.
I would like to say it was love at first sight. The bunny-owner attraction that influenced me to get her. But the truth was that i stood there for a while deciding which bunny "looked cuter". Naive. There are so much more to bunnies than their looks, i know now.
I cannot be happier that i chose Lily. But this is said with bias. I don't know how her siblings would have turned out, but Lily will always be Lily to me. No rabbit that behaves better, or looks cuter, will replace her, or will be a "better rabbit" to me than her. And i saw this as she is gnawing on my cupboard despite my repeated "No"s.
Lily is free roaming whenever i am home. I don't exactly know if that defeats the meaning of "free roaming" but she gets into a lot of trouble when she's out, chewing on everything and pooping on the couch, so i don't really trust her being out alone at night, because she's a daredevil bunny and doesn't know what's safe for her.
She's out all the time when i am home, which is a substantial amount of time, and she loves being out so much that she grunts in the morning when i'm leaving the house and she's not out.
I will continue to update this blog with the progression of Lily's life as she grows, as well as her magical adventures.
