He's the Wright fluff...our previous menagerie member...a gray bunny bought by the folks next door to be ... "DINNER!" No way! Until they found him another home, he lived with us.

The mom of the Wright house took him over and kept him mostly at our house and the folks next door gave up on rabbit stew.

He gained weight and became quite tame. We mostly called him "Ears".

Rabbits are mammals, classed as Lagomorphs. They have fur in a variety of colors: white, black, brown, fawn, chocolate, tan, orange, and several shades of gray.

There are many kinds, or breeds, of rabbits. There are around 35 different breeds of tame rabbits. Rabbits with one color are called "self-colored". Rabbits with more than one color are called "broken-colored" . Chinchilla rabbits have coats that look like silver. Himalayan rabbits have white fur and dark colored feet, ears and nose. Flemish giant rabbits are dark gray. They can grow to over 12 pounds! Normal breeds have coats like wild rabbits which are the same in texture and length. Some of these are: Beverans, Lilacs, Siberians, Chinchilla, Sable and Silver Fox.

Young rabbits cannot stay with their parents for their whole life, even if they wanted to. Baby rabbits are called kittens. Female rabbits are called does and male rabbits are called bucks. They usually live around 5-6 years but sometimes they live longer.Rabbits have sharp teeth and like to gnaw on things, even computer cables!

You can tell how a rabbit feels, or what kind of mood they are in. Rabbits are possessive and will leave their droppings in the space. They will also rub their chin on items. When they are happy, they will hop and dance. Stomping means they are frightened and if they pull their ears back they feel threatened.
