Welcome! This blog was made to showcase the wonderful bunnies that I used to foster with my boyfriend Jack in Leeds. Now we have our own bunnies to look after; Bonnie and Winnie, so the blog will be about them and other bunny related stuff.

2 months later...

I can't believe it has been almost 2 months since we adopted Bonnie and Winnie, and since my last post!
In the time since, we have moved house, had them spayed and re-bonded them! It's so lovely to have them together, and they appear to have a very good bond!

They're very naughty but I love them so much. Winnie is getting more and more confident all the time which makes me really happy, as she can be a little timid. She also does the funniest thing; if I give both of the girls a fiber stick thingy, Bonnie will eat it where she is, but Winnie will run to the other end of their pen to eat it, via a specific route!
They both absolutely love headrubs, which enhances their therapeutic effect.

Here they are!!

First few days with the girls

It has been a busy week with Bonnie and Winnie! Yesterday they had their first trip to the vets for their vaccinations. I'm 100% sure that they hated every minute of it but they actually behaved themselves fairly well, so I'm very proud of them.

Unfortunately their hormones are crazy and they aren't getting on too well at the moment. For that reason we separated them today. After they have both been spayed and have recovered we will try to bond them again. They clearly love each-other but the hormones are getting in the way as they always do with buns!

Here are my babies:

Big News - Bonnie and Winnie

So it's been a very long time since my last post, mainly because we have been completely bunnyless.
However yesterday we adopted two beautiful girls, Bonnie and Winnie. Yes, this does mean we are no longer fostering, so I probably need to change the name of this blog! I'm still very much interested in rabbit welfare though, so I will be looking for other ways to help out rabbit rescue centres.

The girls are both about a year old. They were bought when young at Pets at Home; their owner recently had to move to a care home so took them back, and this is where we adopted them from.
They're a bit humpy with each other at the moment which isn't completely surprising as they are not spayed yet (they will be ASAP!) plus they have new territory!

We took the plunge and adopted them because they were showing the behaviours that we would want in a pair of bunnies! Binkying, chilling out, friendly, pee all in one corner, eating their hay, super cute! They are perfect for us. We are happy to say that they seem to have settled into their new home quickly and are already chilling out.

So, here they are! Bonnie is the white bun with black eyes. Winnie is freckly brown. You may notice their dewlaps; we reckon this is due to still being 'in tact' and they could also be a bit podgy!

A week too late...

The past week has been so hectic so I am very late with this much needed update!
Last Thursday we finished Uni (woo) but Mr and Mrs Mouse also went to some new foster parents (boo). I miss them so much. Being bunnyless is horrible. I do hope they get adopted soon as they are absolutely amazing bunnies.

Some good news; Bertie has been reserved yayyyy! I hope he gets lots of cuddles in his new home as he loves them!

Here are our last moments with Mr and Mrs Mouse.

2000 Views!

The blog has reached the next milestone of 2000 views! I'm not sure exactly how many of those are from my other half but a huge thanks to everyone who follows it.

This week is our last of fostering for a while, as soon we will be moving and starting new jobs and finding a new home. The plan is to start fostering again for another rescue. Hopefully it won't take too long to get this sorted as a life without bunnies is no life at all!!

Mr and Mouse have been great foster bunnies. They are so lovely and have helped to relieve the stress of the final month or so of our masters degrees! Only 3 days to go and uni will be over!!

I'm really going to miss giving Mrs Mouse head rubs, and trimming Mr Mouses hair (it's great fun and a nice challenge)!
