Hettie and Errol went to a new home last week, to live as house rabbits. We were particularly pleased to see these two rehomed. Hettie came in with deformed bits, which required corrective surgery to stop her from urinating on herself. Errol was from one of the largest cases we have had to deal with and was likely father to many of the other bunnies from that case. Could look a bit grumpy at times, especially when dragging those enormous ears around in the wet, but also a constant favourite with visitors to spend time with as he is so big and soppy.
Their new family also includes a dog, so they needed a pair of rabbits that wouldn't scare easily in a new environment. Whereas some rabbits would be terrified being introduced to a larger animal, these two seemed to take it in their stride. Errol soon put the dog in it's place by battering it on the nose when it stuck it where it wasn't wanted.
Good luck in your new home guys!
I expect they'll soon be in charge of everyone in their new home... if they can see off a dog the humans will be a pushover!
ReplyDeleteNice one, Errol! I'm sure that dog won't soon forget where NOT to stick his nose. Best of luck to these beauties in their new home!

ReplyDeleteWe are the family who have been lucky enough to offer Errol and Hettie a home. Jasp our retriever and the bunnies are now firm friends, Errol has put him in his place a few times and they all now have a mutual respect for each other ... Hettie even grooms him when Errol is taking one of his many daily naps!! ... 2 fabulous bunnies with such wonderful personalities, Errol is definatley suffering from 'grumpy old bun' syndrome but is also such a funny boy! hes chewed through 2 pairs of my sons trousers hence far in an attempt to get celery when hes standing by the fridge! .. and Hettie is just so nuturing and sweet. Cannot imagine life without them both now! :)
ReplyDeleteHe he! :-) Thanks for the update, always good to hear how our former residents are getting on. Sounds like it is only a matter of time before Errol trains Jasp to open the fridge for him... ;-)
ReplyDeletethey have become the 'three musketeers' so nothing they get up to would suprise me! :)
