Peaches!
We have a new family member. Peaches is a dwarf rabbit, only 2.9 pounds fully grown (compare her to the top of the Diet Coke can I set next to the cage for scale). Apparently someone put Peaches out on a major highway, and she was living in the culvert in the median. A nice couple spotted her and watched her for several weeks, stopping to feed her every day (my heroes; they're not even "rabbit people"). Then they set out a Havahart trap and captured her. They took her home and found her to be funny and affectionate, but they couldn't keep her because they have a very large dog who seemed to feel that Peaches was a little gift they'd brought him, and Peaches was terribly afraid of him. The mom works with one of my friends who knows about our buns, so she got us together and Peaches rode home with me on the commuter bus tonight.
She's settling in, so more pictures this weekend. She's as cute as can be, and very friendly and curious.

Oh, my! Peaches is adorable. I'd so love to have a bunny but they make me sniffly and all itchy-eyed...big meanies.
ReplyDeleteWelcome, Peaches to a great new home!
She's beautiful! (How could anyone leave a little pet rabbit out on a highway? That kind of stuff makes me crazy! )
ReplyDeletePeaches is very lucky to have a nice new home. =)
Oh she is precious! I just love her. Kiss that widdle bunny head for me.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cutie! And what a lucky little bun, living in a culvert and all and then getting rescued. What do PInk and Elvis think? Nose rubs to all.
ReplyDeleteShe is as cute as can be. I love her color. She is one lucky bunny to have a new home with you. My sons had bunnies 25 yrs ago. They named them Fluffy and Superman.
ReplyDeletethat is IT! I am overtaken by your bun cuteness.
ReplyDeletehow did you get started with house buns? is it easy to housetrain them?
How very sweet she is :o)
ReplyDeleteLike Kristen, it makes me nuts that people just abandon their pets like that. Most shelters are "no questions asked" - the least they could do with an unwanted pet is to take it to a shelter where they won't be left to fend for themselves!
ReplyDeletePeaches is lucky to have been rescued!
What a cutie! And sweet-natured after all that, too! She's one lucky bun to have ended up with you. I can't wait to see more pics and I wish I could give her a great big kiss!
ReplyDeleteWelcome, Peaches!
Awwww, what a peach! Poor thing though, to be left on a highway somewhere. And how wonderful that there were people who took such great care of her before you came along!
ReplyDeleteOh what a sweet little cutie! She's so tiny!
ReplyDeleteOh she's just so boo! How could someone do that!? I'm very happy for her and you.
ReplyDeletePeaches is so cute! What a great addition to your family...and how wonderful you took her in.
ReplyDeleteWhat a perfect name for this sweet bunny! Thx for the extra pictures. She looks precious.
ReplyDeleteHow on earth could anyone put a bunny out like that????
ReplyDeleteShe's so lovely. What a beautiful addition to your family! :D
