The Littlest Orca-Whale...

[msfledermaus]

I had a lovely, lovely day...it's Erin's birthday, so we went to the Bakken museum to check out all the fun electrical stuff. Then we shopped for Erin's birthday supper, and then went to my Maushaus for tidying up and whatnot. And at 2 pm...Shamu the Bunny arrived with her owner Charlene and her little girl, both of whom were very sweet. As was Shamu! He sat in my lap and licked my hand. He frolicked on the living room floor. He washed his cute little face. He was totally adorable...

One cage, bale of timothy hay, salt lick, water bottle, bag of bunny-kibbles and litter box later...I am the proud owner of a jersey woolly. I'd have pictures, but today was very dark, and little Shamu blends in perfectly with my black clothing. I promise, there will be a photo-shoot coming up really soon...

I am totally smitten. Bunneh!!

Aw, man! I'm jealous!

When I spin his wool, I can share him with the world...mind you, he's leetle, so he doesn't make much wool...

I'm so happy!

Do you get wool from your friend's rabbit?

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

I do, and now the lady who gave me Shamu also gave me *lots* of wool from their angoras...and for free! I must make the nice ladies some angora hats to say thank-you:))))

[sassylidge.livejournal.com]

Cool!
So, do you just collect shed fur or is there a way to "shear" them?

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

You mostly just brush them, and they power-shed twice a year...I'm spinning it all:)

Oh my gosh. *whispers* I want a bunny. ._.

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

Well, I'll take lots of pictures of Shamu, and share him with you...he is a gentle little guy, and you would adore him:)

I used to have a big albino bunny named Bugsy. He lived a long time, like 12 years. He never got much exercise. Poor guy. XD

I can't wait for the pictures. ^^

Matt put some pictures up, down in the comments a ways...so cute!

[pianolessdevil.livejournal.com]

*squeals* I want one.

He's so adorable! Lucky lucky you! ^^

Ohhhhhhhh I wanna see!! I bet he's adorable!

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

I'll have pictures later today:)

Bunny! Bunny! Bunny!

My entire household is agog at the news of the bunny. Pictures are a necessity, but videos would also be lovely.

I'll see what the technical guys in my neighborhood can do for me:)

Awwww. I know you're going to be the best bunny keeper.
They make little salt licks?
*writes it down on grocery list*

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

Yup, little bitty salt licks for rabbits and hamsters...it's so funny to see him just attack his salt lick...

I put Shamu pictures here: http://mcohenmn.livejournal.com/75960.html

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Matthew!!! Isn't he just the coolest?

[mcohenmn.livejournal.com]

He is a pretty darn sweet bunneh. But I'm waiting to see if he knows any tricks before saying he's THE coolest...

Mazeltov to Shamu's new Mom! That's great name, BTW... Hugs to the whole family, allergens and all*!

*I am allergic to some rabbits. It's why I can't be a magician any more...

[msfledermaus.livejournal.com]

Awwww...I think since he's long-haired he might be an allergy problem for you and perhaps for my dad....We'll see what we see, eh?
