Default Our Spring Arrival

Hey Everyone!!! Meet Willow! She's the newest addition to Stephanie and my family (a spring present from me to Stephanie). The first four photos are of the cute one; the fifth is just to show you the habitat (Thanks to Gill, I can't call it a pen...she thinks I'm teaching my rabbit to turn wood, LOL).

Awwwww. It is a little cutie. However, it is one strange colored bunny.

Bob, she is adorable.
Love the colors.

But why "Willow"?

Hope you don't say because she's a real "pussy" (as in scared or pussycat)

Just curious,
Marcel

Aren't rabbits adorable? Yours is no exception, Bob.

You'll need to feed power into her habitat if she's going to have a lathe. I reckon it'd be a good idea to train her to turn - the chippings would make great bedding.

We decided against teaching her to turn...we found out that bunnies are very vunlerable to the aromatics in exotic hardwoods, and Willow just wouldn't give up turning cedar...so she can't turn.

Willow was named that for her incredible flexibility. According to my research, it usually takes bunnies 2 weeks or so to acclimate to their new surroundings, and she's already made herself at home! It's also hearkens to Stephanie and my Celtic heritage...Willow was one of the Druid's favorite trees.

Perfect addition, and most appropriate name.

Hope you are all very happy.

Take care
Toni

What a cutie! My wife used to raise bunnies (right up until she met me and my Golden Retriever, hehehe).

She's beautiful Bob! Very unusual coloring. Bunnies are such fun! She doesn't need a lathe- teeth work perfectly well!

(a word of caution- the bunny I had years ago ate a hole in my mattress, chewed wires (not a good thing!) and chased my cats around the house trying to..er..a..make more bunnies. Cats were NOT impressed

Enjoy!

That is a joy. I think I am jealous.
I always wanted a rabbit.
I think you are going to have to do a rabbit in scrolling sometime Bob.
