PolkaDot

The new member of our family came to us scared, hungry and a little beat up. His face is all healed up and his ear mites and fleas are gone. He's litter box trained and loves our family. Anytime we take him out in the backyard for a "treat" he paws at our legs trying to get back in our arms and back in the house. His time living "on the streets" must've been pretty traumatic. Since we adopted him the first weekend in June, and had seen him around the neighborhood for a week or two before that, we assume that some one brought him home from the Pet store for Easter and then abandoned him. He's very tame and cuddly.

In these first two pictures you can see the fur missing on his face. Poor bun-bun. It's all grown back now, looks like "the nothing never was".

The first 2 or 3 days we had him, he lived in our bathroom. Coincidentally, a few days after this we checked out a library book all about rabbits, it said that when you first bring your rabbit home, it's best to keep him in a bathroom or laundry room. That's so that he can get used to the people in the house without having to have them in his face. Now he has a nice big cage with a litter box, food, water, and lots of hay. Mostly, he runs around the house during the day though.

Dorian likes to feed PolkaDot. Actually, we all like to feed him dandelions, carrots, clover, parsley, etc. He's a cute little muncher.

At first he and Moxie were both scared of each other. Now the rabbit likes to sniff and nudge the cat, but the cat only puts up with it for a limited time before she wants to go outside.

Can you spot Pokey among the toys? Sometimes he jumps in the toy box or in with the stuffed animals and really blends in.
