Because it’s possible to become immune to certain allergies…I’m allergic to rabbits but I’ve been a rabbit owner for 5 years now..I guess u can say I eventually became immune to her at some point ..I’m also allergic to dogs but ive been a dog(s) owner for 9 years now and I’ve also become immune to them
I rescued a street bunny knowing I wasn't going to keep her. She had a cut on her leg and her mommy was gone. I got her mended and spayed. Gave her to someone who already had a bun. I get updates all the time and think about her constantly and it's been a year ...
Thank you for the update!! This happened to me. I have 2 bunnies of my own that I am not allergic to, I tried to foster another one and I was soooo allergic to her and literally couldn’t keep her because I couldn’t even be around her
JUST A QUICK REMINDER AS TO EDUCATE PEOPLE. 🙂 I'm no expert in bunnies or any other kinds of pets. But I hope my little knowledge through research will help others. First of all, although i don't totally agree with you, but i admire you for what you've done. I think it's the right thing to do, and it's not your fault for having allergies at some point. We don't know exactly if it is because of the rabbits or hay as you already have experience taking care of them, but just like you said - if that will become the reason for neglect, you did the right thing by let them be adopted by a loving family. But... I hope next time, if you ever decided again to adopt, remember few things - assert yourself first on all aspects. Don't forget to get a home study first about how to take care of bunnies and so forth. Make their home comfortable and their needs are all in place. Specially their first aid kits should always be ready! And ofcourse, it's always recommended for them to be free roam around the house. Now about your first bunny's tilt head problem. Mostly like it was caused by an ear infection or parasitic infection in her brain. A simple colds can also affect their overall health that can lead to head tilt. So it's advisable to bring them right away to the vet that specialized on rabbits so they can give the proper medications and solutions right away. Your bunny could have survived if only treated right away. So owners should always be aware of their bunny's overall health. Also remember, rabbits are not for children. Bunnies are more elaborate than other house hold pets. So instead of giving them away because your friend's child wants a cute bunny, you should surrender them to a shelter that houses rabbits instead. So they can give them the proper care they need. But judging from your story and some pictures, i think you picked the right family for your bunnies. So kudos to you on that. But remember, not every family is like this, so people should be more assertive. Well i guess that's all. If adoptees wants to know more, all you have to do is study, study, and study. There are also plenty of videos in RU-vid about how to take care of your bunnies. All. Bunnies are one of the most fragile yet wonderful creation God has given us. They too, deserves the love and care we also wants for ourselves. And time will come, that affection you gave them, will come back to you. 🙂 💖🐇💖
I’m not telling you esponsible cause your not at all and u had a great set up I hate you had to do it’s not your fault I hope they got to live a good life like u gave them at there new home
You were allergic to the hay other rabbit but you didn't all the sudden become allergic to rabbits and you weren't allergic to the rabbit beforehand it appeared that she was a lot pad also so you didn't just all the sudden become allergic to these rabbits. No more rabbits. At least you understand that there is way more to rabbits than leaving them in a cage and feeding them. Kudos for that decision
People get rabbits for all the wrong reasons had you been allergic to them you could have gotten the blue bunnies which are hypoallergenic same thing with cats. I do have to commend you for researching and setting up things correctly. Should you ever consider getting rabbits again for two bunnies. In addition if you found them a good home then you're still a good rabbit parent if you knew you were allergic you're a somewhat selfish rap parent. In addition it was probably not the rabbits that you were allergic to the hay.
Ferrets can give off smells. Spend time with them at someone else's place. They are sometimes a handful. I know someone who had them and it was chaos. They broke into a small gerbil cage and ate all of them and kept escaping from their own cage and chewed up and destroyed furniture. Really research them and see them in action.
