Memory of Buddy

It's been 1 month since our late rabbit, Buddy died in neuter surgery.

He was just 5 month old.

We bought him from local pet store and he was the first real pet for me.
We did not know anything about house rabbit, we just thought it makes good pet for us living an apartment.

In the pet store we visited, among several kind of rabbits, there are this strange fur-ball looking, hairy small animals curled up in the cage. The sign reads "LIONHEAD RABBIT, $49"
However, since I wanted a rabbit with floppy ears , so we left the store to look other store.
After we visited other stores, we could not find exactly what we looking for so we decided to take a look at the fur ball again.
This time, there is only one lionhead rabbit left.
Someone bought it in 1 day.
The leftover lionhead was not curled up this time. He was moving around and it was cute.
So we asked store staff to show me the rabbit.

He was afraid, this picture is taken just a couple of days after we got him.

He was a little bit wet nose, but I did not know it's not good thing.
Also, I see his ear has a little scratch.
We asked them how old the rabbit is, and she said about 8 weeks.
They did not give us his birthday.

I really wanted to get a rabbit that day, so we took him home.






He was a timid bun!











But curious, he likes to stand a lot.












It took a couple of weeks for him to warm up to us.


His hair is very long and soft.
He was really special bun for us.










He was so cute!














About 5 months old. He loves climb up top of his tunnel.
