A rabbit can teach you so much in such a short amount of time. GM received a mini-lop rabbit for Christmas along with a hutch, food/water dishes, x-pen, toys, food, hay, and grooming supplies.
Prior to the arrival of Ember the Rabbit, my daughter checked out every book the library has on rabbits, purchased books at local book stores with information on the care of rabbits, and watched hours of YouTube videos detailing every aspect of owning a rabbit. We both felt she was ready.
Then the inevitable occurred...
Ember bit GM.
There were tears mostly due to hurt feeling than physical pain. GM learned that Ember has her own personality, desires, and preferences. Somethings can't be taught by books and videos. They must be learned first hand.
