   my dad found a little bunny under the bonnet of their 'paddock car' on xmas eve and knowing i've been wanting one for the kids for ages, he brought it in to me.  he/she is sooooooo cute and small, we've named him 'santa'  hahahahahahha   he's white and really friendly now, even likes the dog and they rub noses, it's so cute!
 DH just made him a hutch tonight as up til now the cat cage was his home.  i feel a little bad for the little bugger outside in the dark on his own though    does anyone know how to tell what flavour rabbits are?   |

   i'm wanting to get a pal for him, so i think i'll take him to the vets and see what he is so we don't end up with a million bunnies   lol

   I read that bunnies like to be in pairs so thats the only reason I am getting Andrew 2 for his birthday. |

   going to the vet to check sex is prob best idea, the rabbit i when i was a kid got out one day, went to the neighbours to check out there male, needless to say we had lots of baby rabbits.   |

   the ones we had at work we got told it was hard to tell until 3 months.. you push on their stomach and out pops something if its a boy.. we tried that but it didnt work ..the one we thought was a girl was a boy...so I'd recommend a vet as well:)

   we let him inside for a cuddle and run around tonight and he was soooo interested in the cat!  she sat there and glared at him then lost interest and walked away, so he started following her everywhere....it was so cute   meanwhile the dog sat at the window whining to get in   |
