Earlier this summer, my dad adopted two bunnies. Great. Except one thing -
one was a male, the other was female. He was told that they were both males, but since I've heard of many cases where people unknowingly bring home mixed genders, I checked to make sure. I told him that he should spay, that there are places he can go to to get his bunny spayed for free or at least a reduced price. Did he? No. He told me that he "checked" and saw testicles on both. The rabbit gave birth, as expected. He told someone at a pet store, then was suggested to seperate the babies from the mother and he did! I tried putting the babies back in with the mother, but she wouldn't accept them. *sigh* Btw, he also kept the bunnies outside all day. It was summer, but it still got very cold. Then my step sister made rude comments because I was upset that he wouldn't allow his bunnies to live inside. His excuse? They spray everywhere. Ugh. The babies are all dead. :( I was SO looking forward to spending the whole summer with him, but I guess I won't see him in a long time, if ever. Not after what happened. >.>;;
