hello!
I have (finally) decided to do a journal because a LOT is going to be going on in the next few months,
I palpated Marshmellow and felt babies...
she is due on March 28 so I will post pics of the babies ...
and we will be having a house remodel, pics then too...

anyway, to begin:

Marshmellow is growling at me, digging in her litterbox , lunging, biting, all that stuff I hope she stops soon


and that is the end of my first online journal entry!


(edited, wrong due date)

Hello Rabbit, er., sonnybunny

I'm glad you are here and you must post photos of your bunnyrabbits when they arrive.

If you get to hankering for a goat, I'll trade you a goat for 423 rabbits, er., bunnies.

Marshmellow is trying to figure out where to make a nest, and is shredding lots of paper (her "toy") nestbox day is on the 24,

I don't have 423 rabbits, and again I am NOT a rabbit!
my first rabbit was named sonny, and he ran away (don't ask how) so I named this account for him.

Marshmellow has built a nice little nest, but no fur yet.
(I made a miscalculation, she is due on the 28)
