Maybe im going soft, but for christmas i got my GF another rabbit. (black mini lop) First name "paws", second name "the bunny"
I was kinda skeptical as to the whole rabbit thing, but she takes care of the other two ("bunson" and "moo") and likes them so i figured how bad could it be. I have had it from 2 weeks before christmas to right now, and it will be staying here until its warm outside. Well a rabbit as a pet is a pretty nice thing to have. It took me 2 days to litter train it and it hits the litterbox about 99/100, since thats about how much it poops in a day. It is pretty easy to feed and take care of, i change the litterbox once a week and thats mostly all of the maintenance i have to do. I hear im lucky, because i can pick him up fine, and he doesnt seem to mind much or get too squirmy. When I let him out of his cage (dog cage) he rips around the basement mach 10 jumping and hopping galore. I will let it rip around the basement (and its literally 10-20 minutes non stop) while i work on my bikes across the room, it loves to come out, its pretty social and runs up to see you when you walk into the room. (which is pretty good for a prey animal that probably thinks im going to eat it)
Currently teaching it not to leave the carpet, working out mediocre.
Might be a pointless post, but having a rabbit as a pet is a pretty enjoyable experience. Less work than a dog,more personal than a fish. not sure if my GF will get this one back![Biggrin :D :D](/images/smilies/xbiggrin.gif)
