        Thought I should start a new thread as the last one about our recent rescue addition was getting too big.  Just a little history:

        A friend learned of an abused bunny down the street from her & rescued it FOR ME!!!  All we were told was someone got it from Mexico around Eastertime & thought it was a boy…and so did we until we took it in to get fixed.  Pretty surprizing for us!  She recouperated from her surgery QUICKLY.  It was only about 36 hours afterwards when she took off running first chance she got.  We watched her incision carefully over the next couple weeks but other than her slowing down a bit, you could hardly tell!  Then, re-naming him/her…we had originally decided on Mortymrr (Morty) but now that he is a she, it just doesn’t fit.  This past month she has been called many names & this morning Ken said “Zhowee” & it stuck.  Zhowee had bonded with Gulliver & Lainey before she was fixed and it was pretty seamless afterwards.  Her & Lainey LOVE to go outside in the mornings.  Zhowee has quite a tunnel going & follows Lainey around like a little kid.  It is so cute!  Lainey completly acts like her mother.  Gulliver is so kicked back that not much phases him.  He has been much more active with the little one (getting big) around.  She sure has livened up everyone’s life around here!  So, here are some pics that show her markings.  Her fur feels like angora & is quite different than Gulliver & Lainey’s.  All their fur is very soft, just in different ways.  When Zhowee was fixed we had them shave about an inch of her fur by her bum because when we got her it was matted so close to her skin I didn’t want to hurt her by working them out.  I absolutley love the way her tail looked with the little puff ball on the end.  Does anyone shave parts of their buns for unique looks?  Watch it become a trend!  I’m just anxious for hers to grow back in & to see how full it will be.  Any new ideas on her breed mix?  She is getting super long & her back hoofers are pretty big in comparison to Gulliver & Lainey’s.  She eats well and exercises LOTS.  She plays hard & then flops & sleeps hard…to the extreme on everything!

        She is a big time flopper

        Pretty messy pic but so cute!  Poop wars are getting better every day

        I really don’t think this is blurred…its just how you see her when she goes “flying”…hehehe!

         

        The happy trio .

        She squeezes into every possible love session…even when Gulliver & Lainey ignore her!

        The best part is SO FAR Zhowee still likes to be cuddled & held (sometimes).  She hasn’t been quite as comfortable with being held since her surgery.  Probably because we didn’t pick her up for 2 weeks (as instructed) afterwards.

        One big happy family !!!

            That’s a cool name! Glad to see you’ve settled on one.

            The pics are hilarious! She’s funny smooshing into every cuddle session. That is really good news that they stayed bonded and her and Lainey are good chums. What a relief.

            I noticed the tail and how long it seems. I didn’t click it had been shaved. Makes it  look very unique.

            On breed, bunnytowne mentioned satin angora which seems right. Do you know any spinners? They could probably tell you whether she’s a satin or not.
            I was looking at an angora site  the other day for a member here and they had french angoras (short face fur, long coats). They can get largish. She could be an angora cross any rabbit breed though really.
            I suppose you could look up what’s popular in the region she is supposed to have originated from for further clues.

              Congrats on such a cuddly trio! It is a special thing to have a new rabbit join up with a pair seamlessly. It must have been meant to be! She looks very silky.
