So this morning I went out to feed and take care of the rabbits. I'm expecting babies, and the does are 4-6 days over due, I can feel them and everything! And that's not even the worse part! I found one of the Harlequins dead. She had gotten out and got into a fight with a cat yesterday, so I brought her in and cleaned her up hoping she'd be okay...... Someone was also looking at buying her, and they're also the breeder I purchased her from....how do I tell her that she died without sounding like a total idiot? I've also had two people back out of sales on me, just this week! I had made plans and everything with them for the rabbits to be picked up at shows, I even went as far as to give the one girl my address! People are driving me crazy these days!! I decided the other night to no longer do pet sales and sell only the nicest "show" and "brood" rabbits I don't keep (if that makes sense.)Okay, I'm done with my rant now, and I fell slightly better now.

I don't actually sell any pets. People are just way to crazy to deal with!!! I take nice ones to the local pet shop and the not so nice ones..... I think they must go to the same place as your not so nice "show" and "brood" buns! I'm sorry about the harlie I think you just have to tell the person the truth, the cat must have done a whole lot more damage than was visible. Poor bun. Do you have youngsters from the harlie? Perhaps the breeder might want to buy a junior off you?People here sell buns from their website and make people pay half as a non-refundable deposit. It drives me insane because I don't want to commit to a rabbit I have not even been able to see, but I can see that it would make it easier to sell pets. |

I don't have any babies from her, she was only a couple months old. ![]() My mom wasn't too fond of the "no pet sales" idea, so that one's out the window. :/ |
