Baby Dustie's Adventurous first Week

Sarah Jasmine and Dustie

This was Dustie's first day home from Aboundingful Farm in Pennsylvania, where he was born.  It was almost a week ago and he was just eight weeks old.

What a cutie patootie!!  He is even more wonderful than I ever could have imagined.  So soft, so cute, so funny, so curious, and now so house trained!!!

Sarah may come again today and take a video so we can share it on Dustie's facebook page.  Himz a funny bunny.

He has our very shy and fussy Holldand Dwarf Rabbit, Bunnie, coming out of her shell - if only to see all the things that belong to her that he gets into...lol...  I love seeing her out more often and even being more curious, too.

She takes forever to eat a snack.  I had a piece of pita bread on the floor where she likes to hop around for the longest time, and she only ever nibbled it once or twice, but liked knowing it was there.  But when Dustie discovered it - it lasted about half the day.  Now, all of the sudden Bunnie's looking for her snack, licking the crumbs.  So I made them both freshly hardened ones from the microwave today. I see Dustie eating his.  And Bunnie is surrounded by small pieces of it like a snack border..lol..  She won't ever eat them all, but she loves having her things all in order.

Dustie is different.  He likes flipping around quickly, not thinking - making a mockery of Bunnie's finely groomed bunny house with Timothy Hay - and then her crate which she only uses as a bathroom.  She sure has her hands full checking all of this all day long ;)

This idea to get an English Angora Rabbit right from the mother as a tiny baby turned out to be a really good thing for everyone.  Even Birdie is entertained by him.  "Hi Birdie"  Hi Bunnie" "Hi uuuudddssty"  She's getting there too.
