buns in the house

Sunday afternoon I experienced going to the animal shelter. there was like, a bunny trout session going on. this couple wanted to "bond" another bunny with theirs. i didn't really understand what was going on. i wanted a bunny. what if i wanted the one they wanted? it was like tryouts. God bless em but "animal people" as i call them - the type who volunteer and take care of strays and wind up having 15 pets at a time... they are a unique bunch. i am glad they are around but like everyone else - they have their eccentricities and ... are a breed unto their own :) 
anyway... so while one woman was testing the bunnies out - holding her sneaker on one hand and monitoring them closely in this room that stank of dog sh*t... I was watching. wondering if I was going to get to hang out with the bunnies. there was a mix up with the room - they needed to do behavior observations of dogs inside there... but here we were trying the bunnies out, so i mean, ? they worked it out. it was all a little confusing. I mean this lady is standing there with a sneaker on her hand, watching the rabbits, while 2-3 of the rabbit ladies would offer comments on the behavior they were observing. "that's good, oh that's excellent, she's ignoring him."

they got along just fine. so i didn't set my hopes on "Benny" this cute older black & white bunny...

tonight i brought home the newest addition to the astoria family. she doesn't have a name yet. she's approximately 3 months old, fabulously happy and sweet. she likes to cuddle, apparently, loves Kashi Crunch cereal &  Carrots (aond with the usual salad)... she has a fascination with the floor sweeper, which is a little weird. she's a sober bunny, i took her to a meeting so she's working her steps. she's pretty adventurous. the subway didn't even seem to scare her.
