My mom declared it today. At least one of the bunnies MUST GO . And unfortunatly that means twix.
she tried bribing me to get rid of both by promising me a puppy, i’ve wanted a dog since i knew what a dog was… but i said no because i love my bunnies too much. So Twix has her very own add on kijiji now
i will make sure she is re-homed to the perfect family. interviews, visits, and im going to ask for updates regularly.
Awe no. Thats not good. I know you will find her a good home. It is good to visit the home and see for yourself. The flaky people would probably say forget it . The serious ones would say ok.
I would say no to a puppy too. Bunnies are so much fun.
I’m sorry you have to lose Twix, but it is probably for the best for all of you. May I suggest that you contact a local shelter or your vet to help rehoming her? I’m not crazy about the posts on kiji, and would like her to find a home via a more reliable bunny resource if it’s possible.
Watch out for the puzzle flooring. That can be dangerous if eaten, so if you see teeth marks, you might have to switch to something safer.
Glad you turned down the puppy. You can be totally devoted to the bunnies you have for years to come.

Yeah, i posted another thread about that a few weeks ago,
Since i paid ALOT for twix my mom insisted that i try and get that money back.. hence kijiji.. -.-
I don’t understand.. your mom was willing to get a puppy if you got rid of Twix? A puppy is more work!!
Hope she finds a good home, and glad you turned down the puppy.
A puppy is more work..
I”m so sorry Mir ![]()
MB, I think the puppy was if she sold both rabbits. Mir, I think you were wise to refuse the offer!
I’m really sorry you’ll have to say good-bye to Twix.
I don’t understand either but I know you have to respect your Mum’s wishes. I just read the Ad and it looks really good! Lots of info that shows you love her and will only see her go to a good home. I hope you don’t have to deal with any weirdos contacting you!
Have you heard of OREO? Ontario Rabbit Education Organization. There is a forum on the site and a section to post about adoptable rabbits. From what I can tell, this is also for rehoming, not just Rescues. You might be able to post about Twix on there too.
Secretly I’m hoping your Mum will have a change of heart. (((Hugs to you)))
Can you take this a step further now that you will be down to one rabbit and have a “contract” drawn up that states Hershey will be supported financially, receive vet care as necessary, and you will not be coerced into “rehoming” her at a later date.
I am just concerned b/c your mom seems to flip-flop on some of these topics very frequently. I don’t want 6 months to go by and then she’s trying to get rid of Hershey too.

I’m sorry to hear this. I hope you can find a really good home for her, so the decision feels just right for you and Twix. Are you sure your mum is not open for changing her mind? I mean seeing she wants to give you a dog, which requires so much hard work, then she might just be open for keeping Twix if you talk to her.
But anyhow, I know how it is with parents. I had a bunny when I was a kid as well, and she started out as house bunny but as she reached maturity she was moved outside to live on her own. Nothing you can do when parents make bad decisions and think they know best ![]()
I wish you the best of luck with all of this.
Good choice to go with keeping Hershey. A puppy’s vet bills are very much higher than a rabbit’s.
So sorry to hear about Twix. ![]()
UGH i HATE garages.. *grumble grumble* My cat is going to be spending the night with the bunnies in that garage tonight..
We have mice in the garage.. my cat’s been cleaning them up nicly but theres still a few left. overnight they chewed up 2 parts of my foam mats in herheys cage. (not the full mat but a bit around the edges..) i know it wasnt hershey because the foam is on the outside of the cage.. -.- my mom claims it must have been hershey because she was out of the cage this morning apperently.. i dont understand that because the door was locked last night and she can’t jump over it unless her hut is agains the side of her pen. -.- greeat.. now ive got to go buy MORE!!!! i dont mind that part but im already in dept with my mom, yup 2 days after my b-day and im in dept..
So where is Twix now? In your past several posts you have mentioned Hershey, but no mention of Twix. Is she still with you while you look for a new home, or is she with someone else in the meantime?
she’s still with us while she waits for a new home..
I hope you can find someone great for her!
pictures!!
Thanks for the pics!
What is that you are using for a pen? Is it an x-pen or connected NIC cubes?
x-pen.
i thought you ordered a dog pen thing.
i was supposed to buy i big dog run (like the BIG ones) but they never showed up or called so i had to use the x-pen i have.
