My bunnies are magical beings of love, silliness, and sweetness and I will cherish them for the rest of time 🩷🩷🩷🩷 they are like little faerie bunny folk ✨✨💖

here is their lil outdoor setup complete with spring’s plum tree blossoms making their beautiful appearance on the tree and blanketing their surroundings. 🌸

The buns are spoiled and I love them infinitely! 🥰

The buns 🩵🩷 love them so much, man. They’ve got the coolest personalities. Both so different. I’m so thankful for the bond that I have with them and the bond that they have developed with each other. It’s been so special watching them fall in love and become inseparable.

Salad times and hanging with them are some of the best parts of my days. 🥰

They have plenty of spots to shelter if it’s raining, yet they still like to get their fluffy selves a bit wet during the rainy days. The last one is them sitting in the rain together - basking happily in the water droplets lol

My sweet boy, Bun, met his new girlfriend today! I named her Korra. They bonded so quickly. I’m so happy that my little dude is going to have a sweet companion to snuggle and play with. 🥹❤️

I am starting to become a rabbit lady and I am loving it!

They are just such wonderful companions and buddies! I love them so much and all of their spunky and sweet personalities. What a joy it is to have animals on this planet. Us humans are so lucky and I hope we always remember this. ❤️💕❤️

Sophie is in the 12-13lb range and only got a rest mat recently, that she doesn’t even use. Her age is unknown but she’s at least 2 years old. She’s lived her life on wire. Do you see sore hocks, red and bloody and bare from the fur being shaved down from incorrect wire? No. Her feet are fine. Wire is fine. She’s not even on the ideal wire. She’s on a step below it: 16 gauge. It’s thinner and less supportive than 14g GAW, but it’s not sharp like hardware cloth.

If your rabbits are getting sore hocks, reevaluate their diet/weight, take their breeding (good feet are genetic!) or fur type into account, and make sure you have the right wire or have it installed right-side up. Sore hocks can happen on any surface. I’ve seen a rabbit with sore hocks that lived uncaged on carpet for Pete’s sake.

So I guess what I'm saying is, don’t immediately reject what you don’t understand, and don’t base your opinion of common husbandry proven to be safe and protective by thousands on hearsay and PETA-type websites.
