That's cute!They look pretty great! Nice rabbits to pick from if someone's looking to adopt a pet one.
I used to have a cottontail rabbit. They're weird pets, but perfectly normal wild rabbits--he was about the size of a couple of spools when I got him, and could see and move about but still needed condensed milk fed to him through a syringe. Way too young to be in the house but his mother wasn't showing up and we had no earthly idea where the nest was--he got in our backyard after someone mowed the lawn at the abandoned house next door.
The little guy did pretty great. We nicknamed him Bun-bun. He ate wires on things and nibbled books and chair legs and the covers of phonograph records. He also learnt to bite people.
He got big and frisky and before too long he was ready to be released back into the wild, where he did pretty great. I saw him on the lawn a few times after that and each time he was a little bigger, but he never really wanted to come back in the house. Guess he'd found a life he liked even more than eating hardbacked books & trying to bite the skin off of hands.
Cool!Thanks for the info on rabbit-proofing, @Kalinychta--
The rabbit I had got a lot of time outside his hutch, and was pretty relaxed about going to run around--we trained him to use a litterbox, too, so that wasn't too terribly problematic either. They're clean beasts.
And they look neat hopping around on the floor in the house.
