Since I was a little girl I have wanted a bunny. I don't know why exactly, but something about the long soft ears and the little wiggly noses just got me. I never got one when I was young and in college I became a cat person.
When Bitty was 3 we got Wainy. Wainy is a Build-a-Bear Mocha Bunny who you've seen around here before. When Bit fell in love with Wainy she fell in love with bunnies in every way. Now we have bunny lamps, bunny shirts, bunny figurines, bunny lawn art, bunny jeans, bunny hair clips, bunny bunny bunny.
The one thing we didn't have... Actual Bunnies!!
Meet Alice the mini lop.
This is Maxie the mini rex.
These two beautiful rabbits came home to live with us yesterday. Maxie is 15 or so weeks old and Alice is 9 weeks old. They are both very sweet and Maxie is a character. They are living in a hutch, indoors, right now as they get used to living at the house of sunshine and the kitties get used to them. We are all one happy pet crazy family.
Alice and Maxie are gorgeous just like my granddaughters. Does Waynie like the new rabbits? By the way, how do you housebreak rabbits? Also what about the cats accepting the rabbits?
See you soon.

They are so cute! They look so snuggly.
My friend who has had rabbits for a while says to watch out for two things - their teeth may need to be filed down periodically if they don't have enough stuff to chew on. And she said they go through an adolescence at around six months old, where they may become somewhat unlikeable, just like any teenager but they will grow out of it. But I'm sure you've done your research and I'm sure you will all be very happy together!

They are so cute!! Watch for the chewing stage, they will destroy your house if you're not careful. Having Twinkie neutered helped. Enjoy them!!
