        Sigh.  I’m mainly just whining.  Again.  Like normal.  lol  

        I am really wanting another bunny again.  I know.  I go through this every few months apparently.  I think it’s just going to get worse though.  I am back in counseling to hopefully get all my issues resolved and I am starting to have some things come up.  My way of comforting myself was finding Eddie and getting some snuggles and kisses.   I do snuggle with Lolli, but she manages to be quite disapproving while tooth purring.  I love her to bits but it’s just not the same as it was with Eddie.  I do realize that another rabbit won’t be Eddie too.  

        Also, it’s a pretty good bet that I’m going to be a complete mess Labor Day weekend.  Cause that’s when he got sick and passed away.  I’m not focusing on that per se, but how this time last year, we were home together all the time.  It’s hard to explain but everything is intertwined together. This time last year was when my spine problems flared up.  That is still not resolved.  Then I lost Eddie. And fast forward a year or so and nothing’s really changed.  

        Also what keeps popping into my head is how happy Lolli would be with a new friend.  Sigh,

        But…..my dad won’t let me get another bunny and I can’t really afford one.  Well, I could but I shouldn’t.  I need to pay on all my medical debt so Lolli and I can move out.  But, but, but….I wanna another bunny!!!!  Whahhhhhh!!!   

        So I just make Lolli snuggle more.  haha  This feeling will pass or I’ll get it under control but I just need to vent a bit.

          I am feeling similar problems. I want another one too. I think it is mostly because I am beginning to feel the effects of babyitis and I would rather have a bunny than a baby right now. I won’t go to jail for leaving a bunny unattended and locked in it’s room when I go to work for 8 hrs. I also feel like Huckleberry needs a friend. She looks so bored and I feel like she sems very desperate when she is cuddling with me.
          Good luck with the counseling!!!! <<>>

            I think that’s my problem too. Plus when loneliness rears it’s ugly head, I start wanting more bunnies. Or pets. I crave being able to give someone or something my love. And I’m still on the fence on wanting babies of my own, so why not just have bunnies instead? LOL

              There was an adorable little pair that was in need of a home the other week… I wanted them so bad but I already have two (unbonded) so don’t need another two ! But I think we all get the urge to go get more of t hose cute wiggly noses. Good that you can resist the urge and only get what you can take care of though!

                My husband loves our daughter but only wants one child. When I started adopting guinea pigs, birds and now my two rabbits I think deep down he feels it’s better than me begging for another child.

                  You should just request to see photos or movies of peoples bunnies here so you can get your fix for now until you can move out and get a husbun for Lolli

                  *hugs*

                    Lintini’s solution would be a catastrophe for me lol. The more I see of other buns, the more I want them all!!! I CAN NOT go on saveabunny without almost breaking down in tears. Today, I went to a pet store and they had some aspca cats for adoption. One was a beautiful and sweet burmese, just like the cat my family had when I was little. I wanted to take her home so much.
                    I feel that lonliness too sometimes. I think I ease it with tv and chinese food unless the Hucklebun actually feels like cuddling. She has grown increasingly more grumpy during the daytimes. She demands her beauty sleep. But at night, she is happy to snuggle for a while if there is nothing tasty to nibble on.
                    I’m so sorry you’re feeling lonely and bummed out. It’s so hard to pull yourself out of that. I hit that low point a few weeks ago and I couldn’t not pull out of it. Finally, I decided I had no other choice. So, I practically overdosed on B12, sat in the sun for as long as I ould without passing out from the heat and made an effort to talk to my friends as much as possible. Two of them came by to chat. I think that between getting a jolt of those good chemicals in me and heating my friends talk about their troubles, I pulled out of it. Forcing yourself to do something you know you will enjoy (painting, gardening, jogging, horseback riding, cooking a special meal, etc.) really helps a lot. When a deep depression hits, even though it’s the hardest thing in the world to do, it just comes down to the fact that you are the only one that can get yourself out of it. Boy, I’m preachy today. Sorry lol. I think all of that may have been more for me than anyone else. I think I needed to kick my own rear in to gear. But hopefully it helps someone else too.

                      I feel the same as most of you. I really really really want to bond Arthur but one: he needs his neuter first and then I have to wait. And two: we have quite a few animals at the moment. There is Arthur, a 35 gallon salt water tank, our leopard geko and my boyfriend is getting a snake (don’t worry it’s a small snake and will not be Arthur’s neighbor). Then there is Harry the chihuahua. He actually doesn’t live with us at the moment (he lives with my dad) because we can’t have dogs at the apartment but I’m still responsible for feeding, vet, walks, playdates etc. But I REALLY REALLY REALLY want another bun!!! My life kinda revolve around the quote:

                      “The more people I meet, the more I like my dog (or bunny or geko).” LOL

                        Well now that it’s been a couple of days, I’m back to being ok. LOL I will always want another bunny but I can usually keep my longing in check. I miss seeing Lolli with a husbun. For all of Eddie’s bossiness, they were really sweet with each other. And I miss that. It’s just not feesible at the moment to get another one. I’m still working on trying to get my dad to allow me to bunny proof all of lolli’s room so she can have the full room.

                        But thank you all!

                        And Huckleberry – Lolli gets quite grumpy during her daytime beauty sleep too. At my apartment, I had the sliding door open and we were trying to nap. But someone was outside making a bunch of noise in the neighborhood- construction of some type. Lolli gave me the DIRTIEST disapproval glare cause the noise woke her up. I’m surprised she didn’t thump. She was NOT happy. And ok, I wasn’t either. LOL
