It is my new spinning partner, Eli the Angora Bunny!He just got spayed and had a haircut, which is why his belly is shaved and his coat is so short. And yes, I did say "spayed" even though he's a male. Evidently, the vet thought he was a female and only discovered the error AFTER he tried to spay the poor boy.
I got Eli from a local rabbit rescue. They were worried no one would take him because of his hair! Silly, silly non-spinners. He is still a baby--about four months old--so he'll get bigger. If he's anything like my old angora bunny The Beast, he will get a lot bigger.
The KH was totally opposed to the idea (he still hasn't recovered from the addition of Peanut), so I picked Eli up while he was out of town. Yeah, I do stuff like that. To my delight, Eli immediately charmed the KH, who discovered he has a new napping buddy.
And he moved Eli's hutch from the backyard into his home office.
Because, really, who could resist that furry face?
HE. IS. CUTE! Oh, he is so cute. And, he looks so soft. I just wanna squeeze him!
ReplyDeleteI suppose he's cute enough to make up for not being a unicorn.
ReplyDeletePhew. I thought a calf was stretch but those chickens had me worrying about a barnyard theme in the making.
ReplyDeleteHappy spinning!
Seriously cute. Good for you for rescuing the little guy.
ReplyDeleteWhat are the odds? After leaving my comment, I noticed that you are an attorney in San Diego. I am sitting in a Kimpton hotel in downtown San Diego while my husband is testifying as an expert witness in Federal Court. I was contemplating seeking out an LYS--looks as though The Grove is the closest, although I don't need any yarn, especially with Stitches West right around the corner. And the consequences don't end there! The Godfather movies (II and I, respectively) are my favorite movies as well. :)
ReplyDeleteAwww. What a sweetie!
ReplyDeleteOh, teh cutes! Poor little guy got spayed, though. Ouch. I think it's great how he's won over KH!
ReplyDeleteI'll join everyone else and say - he is so cute!
ReplyDeleteHappy spinning and cuddle days ahead :)
a man and his... bunny? Hubby and bunny make a cute couple. And I think its too funny that Eli now lives in Hubby's office.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize bunnies were so "prone" to cuddling. Oy, teh cute.
ReplyDeleteI'm totally charmed just looking at a photo, I can only imagine his cuteness powers in person! Love him! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is too stinkin' cute. Cracks me up that your hubby is sitting there cradling Eli like a baby, and the rabbit is totally cool with it. That's one laid-back bunny.
