        Hi again!

        Well it’s the last week of my long wait and my baby girl will be here hopefully next weekend! Before she gets here I just wanted to double check a few quick things.

        This is the condo I built for her. I plan on adding a third level once she’s a little bigger, but she’s just so tiny now!

        The blanket will be clipped down so it’s flat, I just havent found the right clips yet.  Does this look ok for a baby bun? Most specifically I was wondering if a litter box can be too big, and also if it would help with litter training to have things in each corner to kind of deter her from using corners other than the litter box. 

        These are her first toys. Are they suitable for such a young bunny (8 weeks)?

        Also, I ordered her Oxbow alfalfa hay and Oxbow “Young Bunny” food. I’ll be giving her mostly alfalfa with some other hays mixed in until she’s 6-7 months. The breeder will be giving me some of the food she’s currently eating along with her favorite toy. I’ll slowly mix in the new food with the old as advised.

        Hopefully I’m not forgetting anything! This has been such a long but exciting wait!! I really appreciate all the help I’ve been getting here, too. This is really a great resource for new owners.

          What are you using for flooring in that pic?

            The actually a replacement floor for a big dog crate. It’s got some texture to it so it’s not slippery, but can also be easily cleaned. I also have a small brown bed in the center which is kind of blending in to the rest of the floor in the picture. lol Sorry bad lighting!

              I’ll also be adding a hidey house in the top left corner. Forgot to mention that.

                I was asking about flooring cause that seems like a perfect size for that size cage! I want to file that away to suggest to other people.

                Looks really great!

                  Oooh, I’m SO excited for you! Her beautiful big ears will fit in nicely! Did you decide on ‘Holly’ for her name?

                    Ohh! I saw this idea somewhere a while ago before I was even planning for a bunny and I thought it was a really good idea for flooring!
                    its this specifically:
                    http://www.petco.com/product/102333/Petco-Dog-Crate-Replacement-Tray.aspx

                    In the “800 series”. There is also a size up from this also. It fits better actually than the picture makes it seem. In the picture I have the door slightly open which is making how the cage rests a little uneven. With the door completely shut it’s really a perfect fit.

                    And Henry, I’m not 100% on Holly yet. I don’t know why I’m being is indecisive!! lol I think it’ll take meeting her in person for me to decide.
