Samantha Bunnykins: This & That (pix)

[RabbitPam]

Couldn’t load up these pix yesterday, so will try again.

My brother & nephew think the markings on one side of Samantha looks like a paw print. What do you think?

Also, Gumby Sammy gets half under the chair.

so cute!!!!!! it does kinda resemble a pawprint! does anyone else see their buns puddled on the floor and try to rorschact inkblot themselves? LOL!

i love her ear pic, with her just peeking over the top!

i really wonder what her lineage is. she has such a teeny tiny head, she’s very delicate looking!

I think so too about the pawpring. She sure is growing isn’t she. She’s really very pretty and feminine.

I think the ring around her eye kind of looks like a paisley too – she has fun markings.

hehe! Like that 3rd pic! She does have that real athletic body of a true English spot but her head shape is so delicate, def. feminine, wonder if another breed comes into it here…?

She’s so gorgeous. I’ve never seen another bunny that look like her. She reminds me of my Olivia, so dainty and feminine.

You know…she’s got a head and ear shape alot like the Belgian Hare (rabbit breed). The English Spot does have a racy, hare-like body and I was just reading the Does have finer head shape, not as broad as the bucks,which you normally see in the images. Oh well, breed aside, she is very striking. Supermodel with her lean body and arty make-up !

Holy cow, she is getting HUGE! 0_o

Well…I mean…in a nice, bunny sort of way…

Here’s a few caps for you. You said “Gumby” and that got me thinking….

…and then those ears…!

LOL I love it!

You sent me on a browse of breeds again yesterday, because I am baffled, but rapidly arriving at a possible conclusion. First, somebody else mated with an English Spot, so she’s a mix, and I think it might have been a mini rex. However, I looked up English Spots, and she definitely has the body type and most markings. Plus their feet are a bit large, and the does heads are sleek like hers. There’s a close relation called a Rhinelander, but it’s really too big.

The major difference between Herself and an English Spot is that she’s missing the muzzle colors. She is pristine white, no “butterfly” or “Chaplin” mustache. It occured to me that if she came from a breeder who saw immediately that she didn’t have standard markings, she might have been a solitary sale to the pet shop. (sorry guys. ) *feels guilty still, but glad I saved my girl.*

The imp has a new game. She went under the livingroom chair above, and chewed a big hole in the bottom fabric. So I stuffed a pillow under the hole/chair. Gave her a wicker basket upside-down with paper to shred and a cut hole – no interest. She’s working on a new hole under the chair. Markus, what did you use for your box spring again? Sigh.

P.S. Am thinking of using Yesterdays News, but put a handful in her outer litter pan and she ate a couple! Is this bad for her? It looks so much like pellets that we both were a bit confused. I don’t blame her, but is it too late to switch?

Yes, I went off on a search too.  I also thought she could be pure ES with non show worthy markings so she was sold.  Who knows…….She’s very mysterious!

She seems very strongly ES but they do get big. I saved these pics for the head shape.
1) A standard rex (I see why you think she may have this in her now.)
2) A tan hare
