So tomorrow Hannibal has his yearly wellness check and after that, if he comes out in tip top shape, he begins bunny speed dating! Yes my little cannibal will begin his search for bunny love. I have contacted a rescue in the area and as soon as they check my references the dates will begin!
I'm not too picky about the bunny that comes home with us. I'd prefer one that isn't long hair, just because we already have tummy issues with him ingesting so much of his own fur and we don't need MORE fur. I spend at least twenty minutes a day grooming him when he's molting (like he is now) and when he isn't he gets twenty minutes every other day. We still get tummy trouble. I've ordered a new Furminator brush that will hopefully help get all that fur out though woo! So, yeah, like I said I just want him to be happy with his new friend. There is a special needs bun at the rescue that I would looooove to bring home, he's just beautiful and sweet and so lovey, but I know I wouldn't be able to afford his vet costs at the moment and that isn't fair to him so I won't even entertain the idea.
So much to do! Even before we're approved! I need to get his vet check, get my room organized in a way that, if and when we find the right bun, we can separate them without causing too many issues while they get used to each other. Hopefully we'll be moving soon and will be able to put both buns in a space neither has been in before. That will help. Bonding is a llloooong process, I've had one pair of buns bond before and it took a long time, allot of patience, and allot of love.
But so worth it. It may take a long time, but once bunnies bond, they bond for life. Hannibal could really benefit from a friend right now. :)
After his first, and hopefully last, bout with Stasis. We gave him a hair cut to stop more hair from adding to the blockage and it helped allot! He was so happy to be feeling better!
