I'm not allowed another bunny, but I saw the most lovely Silver Fox rabbit in a pet superstore in Swindon. They are quite an unusual breed but really silky soft, funny little characters and very adorable. I was so surprised to see one and it broke my heart to see him there so thought I'd see if anyone here wants a bunny.

I so desperately want to take him home and just know he's going to be a lovely lovely bunny, but we cannot have another rabbit here.

So just a heads up to say there is a most wonderful bun who needs a home. Go on, you know you want one.

There is a very good reason why I got rid of my very nice hutch after losing my little bun. It was so I wouldn't be tempted to take on another as I find myself now! Good luck though.

This is a topic I do not wish my wife to see.

Enough coping with the three moggies without bunnies or (my fault for sending her photographs of them) African pygmy hedgehogs. Cruel and unreasonable husband, apparently hehe

He's an adoption case so only a donation is required.

I have screwed up the formatting so there he is. I think he should be called Humbug.

I think you should click on the link.

He needs a home and I want him to have a good one as I have a real soft spot for the breed.

What is another mouth to feed eh?

He is rather cute......

You do realize that if my other half see's this, she will want him.

She also want's a rat but i have told her that if she buy's one, i am buying a tarantula.

Have the rabbit instead.

I'm sure he's still there.


Lonely.



Needing a home.



And a mummy and daddy to love and feed him carrots.

Is that the small animals enclosure in Pets@Home? I usually manage to make sure we don't get too close to that! biggrin

Yes it is- the rehoming section on the right hand side as you go in - he's in the middle cage next to two beautiful white girls.

Take a visit tonight. Go on. You know you want to.

I'd look after him very well!

Probably start with a wee exfoliating scrub with some salt, then a nice gentle massage with olive oil. Perhaps some relaxing aromatherapy; marjoram and time probably.

Then let him rest on a soft bed of his favorite food, celery, fennel, onions, sun-dried tomatoes, shallots, garlic and some chantenay carrots. Yeah, he'd like them. Then I'd let him have a wee lie down somewhere nice and warm for a bit, before dinner.

Cheers,

FT.

They are actually a fur and meat breed.

But, don't eat him - when they are breathing they make fantastic self warming slippers. Mine sleeps on my feet and it's just lovely.

Hah, you aren't getting off the hook so easily!

Besides, we're going to have to put the cats in the cattery for 10 days shortly, and although they have now spoiled my "there's no such thing as a bunnery" defence by providing facilities for rabbits and guinea pigs, that would be another £35 on top of the £150 for mogs. Plus another £35 for another rabbit, 'cos we wouldn't want to keep one alone. Getting to the point where a fortnight's holiday costs £200 quid to house the beasties! Plus foods, vets, insurance... And - and I realise I am about to sound like my mum here - I'll end up being the one who has to look after them!

So you havn't picked him up yet?

Really thought you would have gone to get him by now, especially as you know the store so well & you obviously spend alot of time in there so maybe now is the time to actually buy something. biggrintongue out
