        I just had to introduce the newest bun to our little fam! This is Lily, a mini Rex X. Her & Ziggy have already shared some kisses through the cage so I’m hopeful bonding won’t be too difficult. Wish us luck!

              The name Lily does suit her well. Sending some easy bonding (((Vibes)))!

                I’m trying out the “stunt double” suggest. No aggression at all from Lily. After a couple days in her cage I’ll bring it out for Ziggy to smell.
                Obviously I’m not letting them interact outside the cage anytime soon. But it looks promising so far. No growling & lots of nose rubbing through the bars.

                  Welcome to BB Lily! How sweet are you – just adorable!
                  Sorry I was late, I was just at the shops and I should be making my hubby’s lunch, but he can wait – this is more important! Lol!
                  I’m sure Ziggy will fall in love with you Lily – I have!

                  Good luck with the bonding Rachel, I wish you a home full of bunny love! GOSH, she is just so darn CUTE!!!

                    Thanks, Andi!! She’s so sweet & patient with Ziggy. Her previous home had 4 other rabbits so I think that helps. She let’s Ziggy smell her & it makes him less nervous.

                        Look at her….. she is so pretty! You need to tell us more – how old? Has she been spayed? (I know Ziggy has been neutered).
                        And most importantly (forget Ziggy, lol!), have you been able to cuddle her yet??? Ha ha ha!

                          She’s 10mths old. The guy i bought her from got her as a gift & THINKS she’s fixed. He said she’s really calm & never mated with his intact males. But once she’s settled I’m taking her to the vet to make sure. At least Ziggy is neutered so def no babies. Lol

                            No cuddles, but I did just get her tonight. The guy is a breeder so I think she’ll be happier here. No aggression or hormonal rabbits around her all the time.

                              Do you know if there’s anyone I can tell for sure if she’s fixed?

                                She’s so cute! Congratulations on your new baby! I hope bonding goes well, I’m thinking once we move about getting a friend for Mr Binks so I’m excited to see how it goes for you!
                                PS I want I kiss that cute little face of hers!
                                My poor bunny gets kissed all over I’m sure he hates it ?

                                    She’s such a pretty rabbit. Glad she’s docile and hope Ziggy loves her just as much as we do.

                                        Hi Lily! I think your local vet may be able to tell for sure via ultrasound. Otherwise, your best bet may be to check and see if she becomes territorial, or has false pregnancies. I’d say look for a stitch or two in her stomach area, but sometimes you just can’t tell.

                                          I’m a bit late on this but oh she’s so cute! Congratulations! Sounds like bonding won’t be too much of a hassle. Any news on how the stunt double went yet? My girl can be quite territorial & stubborn but she still bonded fairly quickly Wishing you luck!!

                                            HI Mimzy!!! Turns out Lily was NOT fixed. We found this out when she gave birth to 2 kits!! Unfortunately, both passed away. But that was probably for the best. Lily is staying with my Mum until her surgery on Mar 17th and she’ll be coming back to live with me in mid Apr.
                                            Right now she’s pretty feisty and aggressive with my mum. lol!! I’m praying she calms down after the surgery. She can still be pretty adorable. She wakes my mum up by breathing on her & tickling her face with her whiskers.

                                              I’m glad that Lily is doing okay, even if she is a bit fiery at the moment. Lovey-furry alarm clocks are the best.

                                                  WHAT Rachel??? Oh my goodness – I am SO sorry! That must have been awful – for you, your mum and Lily.
                                                  This has really shaken me up and I’m a bit lost for words (so unlike me!). Again, I am so sorry Rachel. Are you all ok?

                                                    Yeah, my mum called me bawling. I didn’t know what to do. One passed away and then we found the other later. It happened when she was at my mum’s so it’s easier for me not to think about it. But like is said, sometimes these things work out for the best. My mum has no room for any more rabbits and finding homes on top of that! ugh. She spay is on Mar 17th and we’re hoping she’ll be ready to come back to my place late April.
                                                    I’m excited and scared for it, but if it doesn’t work out with her & Ziggy, my mum said she’ll always have a home with her. So at least we have a backup plan.

                                                      I do love and always have a plan B in my life for everything, so I totally agree and admire you for accepting that may be the outcome and are prepared for it. That makes you the better person that I know you are – good on you Rachel!
                                                      Just so sad that Lily and your mum had to go through that – I am so sorry!

                                                      But if it helps to make you feel better, I am excited but scared for you too! I have March 17 written down and I will be thinking of you all.
                                                      PS – Not just the 17th, I think of you all the time. Especially the Zigster! He he he he…… Special hug’s to Lily, she’s such a lovely girl.

From what my mum has told me about Lily I know this much about her; she love blanket shoving, she’s even nosier than Ziggy, she knows her name and she likes to give nose bumps to your face in the morning. lol!! And she binkies A LOT. lol! Poor mum didn’t know what she was doing at 1st. haha!! I told her it means she’s happy.
