With the cool nights, warm, sunny days, and fluttering leaves and acorns, the bunnies and I are welcoming fall with open arms...paws? I realize that my decision to have no further baby bunny litters and settle down into a less public life with my pet bunnies has been surprising and disappointing to many of you. I truly am sorry to not be able to fulfill your expectations, but I am thoroughly enjoying the reduced workload.
Today, I bid a bittersweet farewell to my buck Yoshi. Don't worry, he's FINE but has been returned to my friends at Hot Cross Buns, where he was born and raised. Yoshi was kindly given to me last fall in a last-ditch effort to rekindle my breeding program...but with my heart subdued by the bunny losses and various bunny and life struggles, he never progressed beyond "pet" status. My ultimate goal is to downsize my already meager herd, and with Hot Cross Buns interested in welcoming Yoshi back, I decided to part with the little guy. I will miss him and his exceptionally mellow personality dearly.
Three bucks and three does remain with me, all as pets: Sunny Jim, Moose, and Fozzie for the boys and Cora, Kali, and Storm for the girls. YES, I will eventually make an update video so you can see them again, and NO, I don't know when or if I will be parting with any other bunnies. At this time, I am enjoying the very manageable cleaning/feeding/exercise schedule with my six pet bunnies. ♥

Special Announcement:
As of August, 2021, I do not plan to have any further bunny litters and will keep my remaining bunnies as pets, potentially downsizing along the way. This has been a HUGE decision a long time coming. After coping with heartbreaking losses of beloved bunnies, spending the past six years ceaselessly working without family vacations, battling personal health issues, and dealing with the behind-the-scenes stress of bunny placements, I am struggling to find joy in something that once was a rich source of positivity in my life. It's time for a change. A midlife crisis perhaps? 🤣 Nah. There will be no zippy red sports car with hot young arm candy riding shotgun, but I do hope to spend more time with my family and pursue additional interests before I'm eligible for social security. For six years, I have never had a morning without an obligatory 1-2 hours of animal chores before I can eat breakfast or an evening without having to be home for night feedings. Eventually, I'd like to experience that freedom once again, but for now, I will slowly begin to reduce my obligations.
What about your website and videos? I will 100% be keeping this website open and continuing to update the wealth of bunny care resources and am already at work revising the content. As for my YouTube channel, I anticipate continued videos but with less frequency. I won't go into details, but suffice it to say I reap minimal benefits from immense investment of my time and effort. Sewing is relaxing, sew I hope to keep the Lop Shop stocked with bunny comfort items, and the Merch Shop is always available when you need some bunny-themed duds. Thank you all for your continued support and understanding. ♥

Cora & Moose's babies from last September all turn one year old today, including my Kali (who was treated to some birthday parsley) and her brother Zander. Zander's mom sent me some great pictures...he's so handsome and has a fabulous setup!
