The Fair

[Holly]

Today, my hubby and I went to the fair. One of the first placeswe went was to the rabbit area.  My hubby and I were looking at the other rabbits.  They had some for sale.  I was almost tempted to buy a cute little lion head. I know right now with Holly not being spayed yet that wouldn’t be a good idea, and Hubby was like no you have enough on your hands with Holly. I was ok with it, but if I could I would have taken him/her home. I’m not sure what its sex was.

Now that I have Holly, the fair makes me sad. I used to show bunnies there many moons ago as I have mentioned.  The pens seemed too small for them.  We were looking at the fact wall, and we were happy that we were doing everything it said. A lot of the info that was on the wall is something that someone can find on this site.  Like proper nutrition with small amount of pellets, greens, and unlimited hay.  One thing I was happy to see was on this list was the fact that rabbits need exercise.  Even though the fair itself isn’t a good place for these bunnies, it looks like the kids are informed and hopefully these bunnies have good homes.

Bunnytowne,
I actually thought of you while I was there. I was like “Oh, this is how Bunnytowne feels like.” A couple of days ago, I read those posts people wrote to you about being happy with one. I said Ok this could apply to me, and my judge and jury was with me, so I was like ok. I am glad I went though. I’ve never seen a lion head in person.

the fair really depresses me, since i’d like to rescue all the bunnies there!

[Holly]

Yeah,
I was just thinking about the fair. Hindsight. There was a table set up as people walked into see the bunnies. I guess they were the ones in charge of selling the bunnies. They had three or four bunnies in an open mini pin sitting on the table. At the time, I didn’t think about it, but I”m not sure this was the best. I know they wanted to advertise their bunnies, but kids were crowding the table to see them. They were letting them hold them. I felt sorry for the poor bunnies. Holly is social, but if that many people try to give her attention she freaks.

I mentioned about a little lion head that I really liked. While we were looking at it, a family asked us to move. They opened up the cage and took the bunny out and took a picture with it and put it back. I do not know if this bunny was somebody’s they knew or not. I don’t know why, but that freaked me out. If they had permission then I guess it was ok. Maybe this is just me, and I’m being a fuddy duddy.

i hate to be in any kind of pet stores they make me sad i must say, out of all the ones by me, petsathome is probably where the animals are best looked after – it never used to be like that i can tell u
i read an advert for a bun that said ‘rabbits for sale, small in size, are easy pets to keep and very cheap, ideal for young children because of size contact blah blah’ i tried phoning to have a go at this person because i was pissed off, but the number wasnt right

[bunnytowne]

oh what a stupid ad.  good thing # was wrong lol.  hopefully they wont’ notice.   hey we haven’t gotten any calls on our bunnies. hmm. lol

well and HOlly yes I am still sad about the buns I get so sad over what we did. but it was too much work for me how do people with 6 buns and cats piggies dogs do it? phew. and I only had 3. well  I notice cotton is happy about the situation now  and I am sad. lol. he is keeping me company tho more affectionate lately. he knows.   and as teh other person said yes there will be more at the fair next week or what not. thats so true. I have stopped going to the pet store I miss them and would be tooo tempted then again oh wow too much work again tho I am veeeery happy with cotton. he is 1 of a kind. as all buns are right?  I could go visit them at the petstore but may end  up with 3 again so I am stayign away I din’t need anything from there anyway good thing.most of the year they dont’ have buns just around easter of course.
