        So I have been thinking for a few months that I wanted to get another bun. Hopfully a friend for Tonks. I was thinking about looking for a lionhead but sometimes things happen for a reason My husband John said a few weeks ago that we should get another mini rex since Tonks is such a good natured bun and the bun I had before Tonks was a mini rex.  Anyway, I told him it would probably be really hard to find another mini rex at a shelter. So a friend of mind that works at our local humane society tells me about this stray bun they got from animal control. She was caputured because she was out running beagles chasing her!!!  So she was either an outdoor bun and escaped or she was released. Poor little thing has had a rough time. They are not sure how old she is but she has never been altered. I went out and met her today and sat in a room and played with her for about an hour.  She’s the sweetest little mini rex!! She was crawling all over me and stretching out to be petted. She chased some little balls and the started running around and doing binkies!!! I just new I had to adopt her!! She’s having her surgery monday so I should get to bring her home on Wed!! I know I have to keep her and Tonks seperated for at least a month after her spay. I have read up and realize it may be very difficult to bond to female buns but I am committed to working with them. I have a pretty big house to keep them seperated if  they absolutley won’t bond. Anyway… enough rambling. I’m just so excited about saving a bun and giving her a forever home!! Her is the pic from the shelter. I will post more after I get her!  I went out and got a matching xpen today to set up next to Tonks!!

                    She is gorgeous! She has so pretty coloring. Your buns will be a pretty duo. It may take you awhile get your girls bonded but just stick with it. Eventually they will realize they want a freind.

                      Awww, she is BEAUTIFUL! Good for you for adopting from a shelter, too! The poor little girl, running away from dogs, just when you are thinking of adopting…it was meant to be!

                      I want LOTS MORE PICTURES WHEN SHE COMES HOME!

                            Thanks guys!! I still can’t believe I found her!! It happened the same way when I got Tonks. I was had been pondering getting another bunny (it had been almost 2 years since my rusty died and it took so long to get over it) and I was looking at our local humane society website and saw tonks!! She looked sooo much like Rusty! I knew it was meant to be!! Now with this bun. I have been going back and forth for a while trying to decide. Then when my friend told me about her and her situation! I knew again it was meant to be!! All of my pets are rescues!! 3 cats and 2 buns! The humane society will always get my support!! I’m still pondering the name! I think once she is home i’ll decide for sure!! I find out today if her surgury is today or tomorrow!! I can’t wait!!!!!! More pics to come!
