Today I got a second rabbit. His name is Fussel and he is about nine weeks old. This Friday he is going to get neutered.
I hope that I can take him home with me again afterwards.
I read that, when a rabbit get neutered in such an early age, one doesn't have to wait those six weeks to be sure. I'd really like to put the rabbits together but I don't want Lilly to get pregnant. She's nearly nine years old... Does anyone of you know about that early kind of a neuterition?

I finally made it and uploaded some pictures of my two loves <3

and Fussel (still shy because he just came into his new home)

I still miss you every day. You weren't just a little bunny but true perfection. At least now I know that someone is taking care lovingly of all our rabbit friends that already had to leave.

Last Friday, my bunny had babies.
We were prepared for them, it wasn't like last time where we freaked out and filled a shoebox with nesting material for them, we were prepared.
Six of them.
Next day, I walk in to see....
Dead baby.
And today I've lost another one. It was the runt, a pretty grey-spotted white bunny. Judging by how her ribs stuck out(and her pathetic looking belly), she couldn't keep up with her stronger, healthier litter-mates, and starved to death.
Her mother spent a long time trying to save her after I showed the body to her, even trying to feed her.
Holding the baby in my hands, I felt cold.
And something else. Some deep terror.
I don't want to feel that again.
I don't think I'll be able to sleep tonight.

@Grief- I am so sorry for your loss, and I understand how hard it is. Just remember it isn't your fault, you did everything you could. It really is the circle of life, sometimes they don't make it... It's a horrible thought and feeling, but just remember you did everything you could. It's not worth not sleeping over. I hope everything else goes well, and good luck with the others, I'm sure they will be fine :)

I am not sure if I caused my rabbit's death..
Hazel was having babies, so I had to keep rudolph, Coco and Blackberry from her. In big cage for the three rabbits. Since males fight, and I didn't really liked my sis rabbit, and I placed coco(male) with Blackberry. I separated the cage into half.
But after a while, I felt that Blackberry was going to die, and yet I went to my aunt's house to stay on the last weekend of the holiday. And than on the morning school started, I saw Blackberry stiff, and she didn't move. I took a box and buried her downstairs.
I just feel guilty, everyone in my family is saying, " serves you right. ", " she was going to die soon anyway. ", " it is tour fault " and finally it resulted into me having depression, and extreme stress, but it is getting better now..
So, am I guilty? Even if you say no, I feel guilty. I miss her alot. And every year on her death anniversary, I draw her and I pray for her to rest in peace..

I will be really busy until after october or something due to studies. I will be trying to catch up on the adoptables I work in. Please shoot me a PM if you want to enquire whether I want to keep my adoptables before deciding to give them away.

I don't think that you caused your rabbits death:
you had to seperate the soon-to-be- mother and coudn't let the males life together. Blackberry had to stay with one of them. It wouldn't have helped her if you just stayed with her- even if it sounds mean: she would still have died.
Furthermore you said that she was your sisters rabbit. She should have cared about them as well.
I know that this is not going to help but still: it is not your fault. You cannot control life and death. I know how mean depressions are, but try not to loose your hope. It will become better again if you try to chance something of your situation. Even when there are harder times are backstepps. (Believe me, I know what I'm talking about...)

My sister said her rabbit wouldn't keep chasing Blackberry as much as coco. That isn't true. And yes, I agree she should take care of him. Even when he was dying, she was like, " Bye Rudolph. " I was the one taking care of him and my rabbits. I just really regret, why didn't I paid more attention despite feeling her death? ;-;

I just found a red New Zealand buck about an hour from me, and I'm freaking out because he's the cutest thing I've ever seen. He's only $15 and he's purebred, which is a really good deal. c:

Oh, that must be the one I drew! C;
I don't think it's your fault, every living thing's time comes, you couldn't have changed that if you were there or not. I know it sucks, I used to cry a lot when my favorite rabbit died of age. I was younger then, and didn't know as much, but I felt horrible.
I think you should explain to your family how their words are really hurting you and just remember it isn't your fault. It may feel wrong, but try to move on, slowly. Remeber, but don't think of it too much. C:

my first pet rabbit died of old age (I miss her so much and she died 4th July 2013) and my second rabbit he loves a good hug and falls asleep when he gets one. I would've send a picture of him but it wont let me, trust me I tried nearly everything.
Goatlings I'm Greenbunny1998 on Goatlings and PokèFarm Q too :D
Rabbit facts:
Male rabbit called a buck and female rabbit called a doe
Carrots are unhealthy for rabbits
Rabbit teeth never stop growing
Female rabbit gives birth to their young after a month (pregnant for only a month)
Female rabbits will create their nest within one week before they give birth
Females will feed their young twice a day
Female rabbits after feeding their young will leave the young until next feeding
Baby rabbits will have full body of fur after one week
Baby rabbits are born with eyes closed
Baby rabbits will open their eyes within 10 - 18 days
You should never pick up a rabbit by their ears it causes them serious pain

My favourite animal is rabbits so I don't trade my bunnies. Never give up, you are all amazing. Achieve your dreams, look forward and not back and carry on being amazing.

Feel free to send me PM, trade, art customs you want me to do etc. I definitely will gladly help anyone with CS or other website i'm on and talk about animals and help with anything you would like to know about rabbits :D Please don't be afraid to ask any questions :D.
