Munch came to us as a he and was dropped off in a plastic storage box by a lady from Social Services. Munch had belonged as a house bunny to an elderly gentleman that sadly had to be sectioned, so they needed someone to look after Munch until he was fit to return home.
Unfortunately Social Services did not pay their bill and got a bit nasty when we called chasing payment, to the extent that we were told to destroy the rabbit in that case as the old man would know no different it was there or not as he was "Mental" :twisted:
We obviously ignored this, absorbed the cost ourselves and during this time discovered he was in fact a she. As it was the summer we decided to try Munch outside as we couldn't continue to have her as a house bun indefinitely. I have never seen a rabbit take to a hutch so quickly and she soon made herself at home. The dilemma then was what to do with her. BARC kindly offered to take her when they had space, but during the wait we fell in love with her and I pleaded with the OH to let her stay. He said there was no way we could have 2 pairs, as we already had Monty and Milly, so I said o.k what about a trio. He thought I was mad as I have never bonded before, but said that if I could do it she could stay. The next day I set about bonding and within 15 minutes they were all loved up and grooming each other eating hay happily and we've never looked back. This is Munch nowadays keeping a look out from the run.
