Be Bold, Be Brave.. The Graysie Story

Once upon a time, well a specific time - say January 7, 2009, there was an adorable little gray lionhead bunny waiting in a glass cage at Petco store. You see, this cute ball of fluff had been at this store for a while trying the cutest of the bunny cuteness to win a forever home. Luckily this trick was starting to work on a soft hearted human, who just happened to be my husband...


My darling hubby had been stopping at a Petco in Longview on his way home to pick up pellets. He came across a little gray lionhead he dubbed Loco after the Longview highschool football team mascot. He was completely in love with this furbaby, but I wouldn't let him buy a bunny. No way - no how. We knew this job assignment was ending, and that he wouldn't be going back, so he called me on the way home that day. If that bunny is there, I'm bringing him home. I can't say no forever, and I really can't say no that well to my hubby... Then a little bit later I got a phone call again, the bunny was there and coming home. The petstore had sold little Loco to a couple who had brought him back. Why you ask? Because the cute, sweet, innocent little lionhead bunny had bitten the couple's ferret (!!) That story still makes me laugh. Does this look like the face of a fierce ferret hunter?


My sweet Graysie, my Stinkerbelle, my Stinkerdoodle. She loves to run and run and run. Very sweet when sleeping and occassionally when awake. Very adventurous, she goes where no other buns go, namely behind the couch.


Happy 3rd Gotcha Day my Graysie. You haven't aged a day my sweetheart. I love the little white strip under your nose that makes it look like it's moving 100 miles per minute. I adore the pure white belly that you push against the bars when you really want treats. May we celebrate many more adventures together.

ps..Just a reminder, January's giveaway is still going on. Be sure to check it out :)

Happy Gotcha Day Graysie!!! :) I remember reading that it wasn't safe to keep rabbits and ferrets together because for so many generations ferrets were trained to hunt rabbits!! They didn't mention they meant it wasn't safe for the ferret!!!
