JACK	Jack is estimated to be about 6-7 years old as of June 2009 Jack is a sensitive, affectionate, expressive bunny who is now trying to impress and dominate the new Diva "Vivian" in the house. Rucy taught him out to be brave, and Vivian is now teaching him how to patient and calm. He would like to have some evening nooky, but Vivian has made it clear - NEVER EVER.  But Jack wouldn't  be Jack  without a little try here and there.  He can bug Vivian so much that she runs off to her special little hideaway for the evening.  (You can read more about that in Vivian's profile) Background:  Jack had originally lived in a cage in a garage with his mate.  They were turned into an animal shelter, and separated.  (they don't do that now, unless the pair is fighting).  His bonded mate was adopted out, and he was left behind.  He was lonely and scared, and he'd huff, growl and lunge.  Because he was a big boy and could easily scare everyone off, he was at risk for being euthanized.  So SaveABunny.org took him in.  I fostered him and quickly fell in love and adopted him.  He was just a big bluffer and ended up being just a big loving teddy bear.  The sad part though was that he obviously missed his mate, who actually looked just like him.  When he saw himself in the large closet mirrors, he would honk with joy, and snuggle up to his reflection.  When I adopted him, he fell in love with Rucy right away and they quickly bonded. Rucy passed away March of 2009.  Now he is working on befriending Vivian and though they are taking time, a slow developing friendship is happening.
	Vivian is estimated to be a minimum of 6-7 years old when we adopted her in May 2009 from SaveABunny.org.  She is a comical, extremely intelligent, inquisitive, confident and loving girl with a bit of divatude.  We feel blessed to have in our lives. She will seek out affection from us and look for trouble to get into.  For a older gal, she has a fun young curious spirit about her.  A real character! Bonding was challenging with Jack.   She loved him at first, but he can be more annoying than cute. She puts up with his bossy and humpy behavior without much of a fuss.  His cute face is forgiveable it seems. She will groom him and cuddle with him, but if he gets too persistent with his "love" requests, she wants him to leave her alone. She is much less tolerant of this this Rucy was and Jack is trying his best to get used to this new platonic type of relationship.   So in order for this pair to work, Vivian needs to have the option to leave Jack when he endlessly honks his Barry White tunes in the evening.  We have set up a little Vivian hideaway in our foyer/sunroom.  Jack won't go there because there is too much slippery floor between him and her hideout -   he doesn't like slippery floors. So now Vivian comes and goes as she pleases. She normally spends all day with him (from 8am - 11pm).  Around 11pm is when he is in hot pursuit of her and she normally will just head back to her girly getaway for the evening. What's really cute is if Vivian doesn't come visit Jack early enough the next day, he will come out and sit and wait for her in the living room or hallway (both have entrances to the foyer).  He may not get  the kind of "lovin" he wants, but he definitely would rather have her company more than anything else.       Background: She was at SaveABunny for 2 years, and before that she was causing havoc with her attitude at a previous shelter. Marcy, SaveABunny Founder, knew she was special  and just needed someone to understand and love her.   It was exciting to see her get used to a new "forever home" with us.  Most people may not have understood her "Divatude".  No she doesn't want you to touch her stuff and yes, she will let you know it, especially if she doesn't really know you.  But we have found that in a rather short amount of time, she is willing to trust and now looks forward to our approach when she is in her pen.  She may give us the stink eye if we move some stuff around, but that's about it - maybe every once in awhile she'll give a girly like "huff".   We just love every single thing about her.
RUCY	RUCY RIP 3/14/09: Rucy was estimated to be 9 years minimum.    She was eating and pooping the night of 3/13/09.  Her energy was a little low but that hasn't been abnormal.  She's been more mellow this year, and a week prior to her death she had surgery to remove 3 infected teeth, but she was doing really well.  Even did a binky!  However, the morning of 3/14/09 she was lethargic, and so we called our vet to let them know we were bringing Rucy in right then as an emergency.  Unfortunately, she died me arms before we could get there.   We miss her very very much. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ Old Profile: Rucy's a tough independent smart and spunky girl with a soft side for Jack. She likes to be pet on her own terms. But that's okay, she's so much fun to watch!  She loves to explore, hide in dark spaces, get up on high places and throw things around that get in her way.  I observe her actually thinking about how to figure something out.  She's a real smarty pants. Background: I adopted her from the House Rabbit Society in Richmond.   They told me she was dropped off in the middle of the night in her carrier in the front of Animal Care and Control.  She had a large jaw abscess, so House Rabbit Society adopted her and together with Dr. Harvey, they gave her a second chance at a great life. Ultimately, a front incisor and a few back teeth needed to be removed.  She was a tough cookie and would box and bite.  (who wouldn't after what she had been through)  But with trust and socializing, she has come full circle. She now shows her displeasure with a light box, or a gentle push away, and will seek out affection when she's ready.
