Rabbits: The
Beginning
By Guest Blogger Alexis Lynch: An Introduction
Hello! I’m Elizabeth’s
daughter and after many requests from my Mom, I agreed to do a little guest
blogging.
I will be blogging about
Rabbits: raising, feeding, housing and breeding along with other rabbit
concerns.
As a child I had a
pet rabbit. It’s been so many years ago that I no longer remember the exact day
I got him but he was a grey short-haired Mini-Rex named Thunder. He was
an average example of his breed, only special because he was my very own and I
loved him. He lived near our clubhouse in an outdoor hutch my mother built from
salvaged lumber. I have many happy
memories of taking him out to our sunny grassy yard where we spent many hours
playing together. Time passed and as all
living things do; sadly including pets, Thunder eventually died. I remember
crying and running to tell my parents. I never had another pet rabbit after
that; my experience with rabbits thereafter stemming from what I read from
books or online, watching nature shows or rabbits I saw at county fairs.
