Chompy

Welcome to Huey Bunny

As mentioned previously, our dear bunny Bukit passed away last month.  We knew we wanted to adopt another bunny so Chompy could have a friend again – but we weren’t sure when was too soon.

We decided to go through www.rabbitrescue.ca, an organization that takes in rabbits who are near the end of their lives at shelters and places them with foster parents until they can find ‘forever homes’.

Through them we found Huey – who was living in waterloo.

He likes apples and boxes.

He is awesome! He’s very curious and loves to be petted. This is a big change from Chompy, who is equally curious but replace love with hate and… well that’s the Chomps. They haven’t been introduced yet. I really hope they like each other. Bukit was more of a subdued bunny and Chompy can be fairly laid back as well.  I hope these two don’t have clashing personalities!!  Anyway, here are two more pictures of cutie mc Huebert.

There will be many, many more pictures of him to follow :)
Oddly enough, having him in my home makes me miss Bukit even more. :(

This is a rabbit. Not A muppet… maybe..

One of my pet rabbits, Chompy is a Lionhead. We got her at the Humane Society where she was incorrectly labeled an “angora” (the type we get angora wool from).

We were struck by her ridiculous fluff, which is common for this breed. They slightly resemble a lion having a “mane” of fur around their face that is longer than the rest.

Normally, we maintain her fur by trimming it so she doesn’t get hairballs, track too much litter around, and so it doesn’t get matted. We’ve let it slide.

This is the result:

Chompy Neds a Fur Trimming

DEAR LORD.

That white stuff all over her is the bedding we use in the litter box. It gets stuck to her fur; she doesn’t realize.
