I love rabbits.
Last weekend, I took my newly single girl Amelia and my single boy Cody to the rabbit club meeting to have someone evaluate them as a possible pair. The bonding expert said they had potential, so I have started working on getting them bonded. They've been on a couple short dates in the laundry basket and done well, so yesterday I cleaned out Cody's pen really well and today I put in a divider and moved Amelia in one side. It's close quarters - my regular rabbit pens are more than twice as big as this entire x-pen, but it's the best I can manage. Hopefully they will bond quickly and can move back into the large pen in the rabbit room.
She likes him well enough, is relaxed and curious around him, but he has been a little snarfy since she moved in next door.

I love that your rabbits go on dates. Nothing is cuter.

I love rabbits.
Rabbit dates are pretty much a necessity when it comes to bonding rabbits. Unlike dogs or cats, you can't just put two rabbits together and have them figure things out - if they dislike each other, they can literally fight to the death, and there's no way to know if they dislike each other until you put them together. :O They either fight or don't fight, and if they fight right off the bat, they will never pair up.
Cody is just snarfy because right now Amelia is in "his" area. Starting tomorrow, we will switch them every day. Everything in the pen stays the same, we just switch the bunnies to opposite sides. Both sides of the pen will become shared "ours" area. I think everything will go very smoothly after that.

I had to stop doing that...checking the rescue sites.
This is Sonny, the supposedly feral cat I wanted to adopt before I got Bogart. The fosters did a great job with him. He's quite social, just a bit shy but is on the bed with me and quite relaxed!

I'm hoping to...I'm helping out the foster people since they just took in three more kittens that were abandoned. If he can blend well enough with Bogey and Cybil I will keep him. I'm a little concerned for Bogey's health. His issues are aggravated with stress and his breathing has already started to worsen overnight. I don't want to risk a setback since he has finally shown improvement and after all of the money I've spent.
I want a ginger cat too.
Gizmo fell asleep after I took these photos of him, that explains why he looks so tired. You can see Molly's handiwork of how she chewed the banisters in the background. I don't know what to do to remedy that.

My rats (and 2 mice), some past, some present. ^^
My vet made me the soft clay paw print after Light passed away
I had a hard time deciding if I wanted to put him down, or if I wanted to try to make him better.
I guess it was his time, because he passed away before the vet could euth.
Love those cards she sends me when my rats pass away, it's really touching.
My rats love fishing for peas, corn, and various other things I put in there. ^^
Ps. No one lives in an aquarium except the mice, and aspen is fine for rats. Pine and Cedar are not.

All my pics could not fit in one post lol.
Ah, I've been wanting ferrets since 09, but I had to keep putting it off.. One day!
They are probably more expensive than my rats, I never paid more than 200$ for a surgery,
and I hear you can pay 1,000 dollars on a major surgery for a ferret and that they will need at least 1 major surgery in their lifetime. I used to spend a lot of money in antibiotics, but since I got a nebulizer... not so much. It's cheaper and more effective to treat their uri with a neb than antibiotics, ime. My rats dislike the taste, and are smart enough to know when I try to slip them meds in their snacks, rofl. Rats are pretty neat pets, though. It's fun to teach them tricks. ^^
