Have decided to break the mould and write bout something happy! LOL
All this talk of dying I figured maybe I should write something nice. How bout a birth?
My bunny has had babies. Bitch killed them all bar 1. I've subsequently removed the remaining baby and am now attempting to hand rear the day old kit. This is gonna be an adventure. Poor mite...talk bout life in someone's hands!
I've reared bunny babies before but never this young. I was sorta hoping that mommy was gonna come round to the idea but after 3 attempts and 3 lots of murder on her behalf I've come to the conclusion that its not gonna happen with her. So the necessary removal of the newborn. I hate doing it but it deserves a chance so....
Its now nestled in a box in a quiet room with my child's microwaveable heat pack. Cozy or what? I've fed and weighed it and stimulated its genital area for defecation and urination both of which were accomplished with finesse!....Bravo Mommy!!!
I'm off to the vets tomorrow for some instruction on feeding techniques...don't want to drown the poor thing.
So all in all i'm kinda happy today. Happy days!
Thanks for you evaluation of me in your previous comment, Im far from being one of 'them' and pride myself on taking life at a very acute angle.
Rabbits are nice creatures, albeit not the most intelligent (i have a cat, the Einstein of animals) still lots of fun to have as pets.
Good luck with your baby Rabbit, dont be tempted to engineer its genes and meld them with other animals - i tried this and ended up with a Rabbake when i tried to meld Rabbit and Snake DNA.
Not a lot of fun, but an interesting experience none-the-less.
