I am becoming a regular Momma Doolittle. For no good reason, my fella sugested I go out and buy another rabbit today. A baby one that we could get cuddles from. Our current adopted rescue bunnies are as cute as anything you can think of, but are reluctant to be picked up. Fair enough, I just leave them to it. We all live together quite nicely. I am the food machine who locks them up at night! But for some reason today we were sorely feeling the lack of bunny love! So for no good reason, I went out in search of the perfect little wabbit.
I was on the way to a pet shop when I decided I urgently needed to go to the farm shop, and see if they had bunnies. Whilst I'd rather get my bunnies from a rescue, doing so precludes cuddles to an extent. I already have two adorable, and much loved grumps... Besides, I would hope that whatever bunny comes to me, is meant to be. So I went into the local farm shop, following my intuition, bought some super cheap free range eggs and asked if they sold pet bunnies. The women got all excited and told me that only yesterday a young lad had come in with a poster about his baby bunnies. The bonus being that the bunnies in question were not only cheaper than a pet shop, but came from a loving family home, where I know they will have been handled more often.
So I set off in my little car to the home of my predestined rabbit friends. The lady and her two sons were in the midst of mucking out their yard, which was full to the brim with bunnies of all sizes, colours and temperament no doubt! Then in the middle she had located her two little baby girls for me to choose from.
Immediately I knew this... There was no choice. I had to have them both! So Momma Doolittle purchased both her new girls and brought them home in the ladies borrowed pet carrier. The girls are now aquainted with the old fellas Gilbert and George, and thus far, things seem to have gone rather sweetly. Just a bit of sniffing and curiosity. Now they are all collapsed together in the heat of this beautiful June day!
So I followed my nose and sniffed out some bunnies. Here are the girls in question... Any name ideas welcome. I was going to go with Ga Ga and Gwen... but not sure. Though would be nice to continue the G theme! The G-Bunnies!
