I browse through petfinder to look at the cute bunnies every now and then...

Today, one pulled on my heart. It made me smile.

He is a 5 month old neutered dwarf rabbit, currently in foster.

He is basically a male version of my Chacha bun. His name is Chocolate.

Inside, it would make me happy to have another little one running around, keeping Chacha busy, companionship. On the other hand, I live in an apartment, and I have to get my dad's permission first. I would clean out and use the XL dog kennel I have for him (if I am given the OK) and start the bonding process. I see a lot of positives coming out of this - Chacha would be happy to have someone when I am busy at home doing school work, or at work. The downside, I don't know how I would do with TWO free range rabbits. Chacha is really really lazy and doesn't get into naughty stuff (except for chewing on my door to wake me up the other morning) and is the most laid back, diva like rabbit.

I really do not want to make a fuss out of this and I don't really want any pressure.. just some thoughts.

My dad has joked around in the past that I should get another rabbit... the apartment is already rabbit proofed. When both are bonded, I would create a bigger NIC grid condo for them to be in when I am not at home. Or, at least until I know I can fully trust the boy not to get into naughtyness... hahaa.

Ah.. the little man has pulled on my heart

Thanks guys I feel the loveeee

Well, I called and left a message with the shelter about it. I will get a call within 48 hours. I need to arrange a time and a ride with someone. My dad's car isn't in too good of shape at the moment (thank goodness my vet is just 5 minutes away and my dad doesn't mind that drive). Even if I did drive, the car I would be driving wouldn't be too great (it went kapoot...). Crossing my fingers here. If the meeting doesn't work, I will know it wasn't meant to be. I will wait until my dad gets his car fixed so he can take me to other places in the near future

I have thought of having a second bun in my life, but I didn't expect it to be now But with school starting in January (I'll be at home for school since it is online based) I think she'll benefit from having a friend when mommy is hitting the books.

I did a lot of thinking and I believe it is time. I am ready to have whatever set up there needs to be to have a happy Chacha and a happy 'bunny #2.'

Sugarbear, heh, yes, I live in an apartment I wish I lived back in the house I used to live in It was so much bigger hahah

Another Chacha!!! Are your really prepared for that???  lol

I think it's wonderful that you are considering opening your home to another bunny. Just keep in mind, though, that bonding bunnies may take a long time (as in my case). And if you are already busy with work and school, having to do bonding sessions can take up even more time and add stress to your life. My bonding is so slow right now because I'm so busy, it's hard to spend more than an hour a day at it and it feels like we're going nowhere.

It would be so cute to have a little boy Nethie do match Chacha. Try to pick one with a little less 'tude though, or they may clash. I'm sure Chacha will not pick a buddy that would usurp her crown, that's for sure.

Good luck with the arrangements at the shelter. I would love to see pics of the meeting!

Great great Thanks everyone!

I am still anxiously awaiting the phone call back.. I checked my phone while on my break at work and I sighed.. and frowned. I hope that I"ll get a call tomorrow or else I"m going to have to keep calling to leave messages 

I showed my dad the boy and he said "CUTEEEEEEeeee you HAVE to get him!!"

Okay, I'm not gonna lie...he made me "squee". Love the colour. Chocolate is a perfect name for him. Chacha and Chocolate. Sounds nice, yes?

(is thinking of the two siamese cats in Lady & the Tramp)

lolz...."We are Nether-ees if you please"....
