Sadly the found bunny mystery has been solved. The kind man that let me know the bunny was out there said he saw several more on the highschool foot ball feild this morning. So someone let them go at the school hoping kids would bring them home :( Poor bunny guess he's here to stay then.
And on that note I thought of a name for him. Jupiter. Was looking at his pic and he reminded me of the petting zoo goat Jupiter. She was one of the coolest goats too. Girlfriend to Lupe, liked to suck her own beard and teets, lol and cuddle in your lap.

He acts like a well manered house bunny. He doesn't pee or poop outside of his cage, hasn't yet anyway, and he knows his way around furniture. He's hopped on and off the couch on his own and on and off my bed. My bed has a trunk next to it for my dogs convenience. He has an easier time getting up and down than they do and they're bigger. He was up and down several times. He was hopping around his cage so tried opening the door and just sitting back on the bed, since Hyzzie was acting decent. She did better without me hoovering over them.
Quasi and the bunny. Well at least I tried to get a pic of them together while out :P
Bunny and the empty treat jar Hyzzie had been playing with.
I'm still not so sure about this ting ~ Hyzzie
Okay I admit to being a slob but the pee pad in the cage is just stained not soiled or I'd change it :P It's actualy paint.Hyzzie and the bunny!! Oh my!
Hyzzie woofs at the bunny sometimes when it eats it's kibble. She thinks she should have it.

Quasi and the bunny are getting along Hyzzie isn't sure what it is yet. She thinks she deserves it's food though and woofed at it so quasi went back to guarding the bunny cage just now. I haven't had a chance to try them together again since this morning. Kat came in and looked at bunny this morning but she wasn't to impressed. I'm not worried about her she used to have a wild bunny friend. Next time I get it out I'll be mean and check it's gender.
Well tried the bunny out tonight. First it just wanted to cuddle so I held it awhile and watched tv with it in the living room. So I took the opportunity to give it a grope and it's a boy compleate with dangly bits lol. When it woke up from it's cuddle nap I let it explore the couch and Quasi is fine with it but Hyzzie was licking her lips a lot. She wagged her tail and was sort of doing play bows but still didn't feel it was a good sign. Tried letting it explore my room a bit with me hovering over it. Hyzzie ran if it came in her dirrection but otherwise she kept sneaking up and snapping at it. No stopped her and she'd look guilty then do it again. So far it's still only bluffs and bunny just ignored her but it's not going well so far.
Oh and bunny seems to thing the little cat house bed makes a nice litter box as there were several piles in there. On the other hand it's been napping next to the real litter box.
Kat came in and looked at it for awhile yesterday then left. Didn't seem to impressed. I had some time home this morning due to not feeling well yesterday, dad's running the shop. So let bunny out for a bit to check out the house. Kat did come say hi and sniffed it. Couldn't tell if she liked it but I know she wont be a problem since she had a wild bunny she used to groom and play with.
Hyzzie is still being preditory. She listens when I say no but is really upset I wont let her eat it. she's still just snapping near it but I can't let it continue. Will try a squirt bottle next.
Quasi is a good boy. Bunny has bumped right into him several times and he doesn't mind. He is a little jelouse of any attention I give it though.
Bunny still thinks the best place to poop is in the house bed. Guess it needs a covered litter pan.

Evening of 10/26 ....and bunny loves Quasi. Poor Quasi is still sitting in his bed there whining for it to be let out and it is right up against the cage next to him. They wanna cuddle.
Please mom let her out?
He's obsessed with it. He and the bunny are now sleeping next to each other through the cage. When I first put it in it went right into the bed/house but it would rather lay next to Quasi now.
My Kat used to play with a wild bunny that befriended her. They did that in the yard, kinda. she'd groom it then it tried to suckle. It looked to be a full gron bunny but she's a BIG kitty, lol. She swat it then it would bounce all around the yard then stop infront of her and wait to be swatted awain then hop around. Kat was to lazy to run herself. It didn't always try to suckle first but that's how the game got started.
I did take it out for a little bit and Quasi was more cautiouse without bars between them. He needed my hand on him for reasurance. Hyzzie on the other hand was acting a little preditory so didn't keep it out long. When I went to put it baqck it hid it's face in my arm and fell asleep. It's a very sweet bunny and has eaten more so don't think I need to worry now.
it was restless so tried it out again for a bit. It's set at the moment so when I let it out the cage door while open kept the dogs away. It hopped in Hyzzie's dirrection and she scrambled to get away, HA. I let them together with very close supervision but only for a few seconds as both are still jumpy around it when out. They both sniffed and no one attacked. Hyzzie is of the mind that the best defense is a good offense though so need to watch her close with her being so nervouse. Hyzzie has prooven to be a mouser so she's got a lot of issues to keep an eye on. It would be doubly disasterouse if it got injured then the owners came to claim it.

I guess if it winds up staying we'll have to name it Esmerelda cuz that was the name of Quasimoto's love in the story. That's assuming it's a girl. I haven't been rude enough to flip it over and check yet. Bunnies are a bit difficult to sex.
I did try it out a few times with close supper vision but Hyzzie is acting very iffy with it. First tried it on my bed and though quasi just sniffed she growled and lunged at it though was a bluff. She got in trouble. She's tried that a couple times though. Let it out on the floor and it hopped in her dirrection and she scrambled away. So Hyzzie's emotions are still mixed. I tried this morning for a bit too and she was better but still not trust worthy. Quasi's a little more nervouse when there aren't the bars between them but he was nice to it and just sniffed. He whines at me to let it out then gets all shy when I do, lol.

Well should make an intro post but maybe I'll do that later.
10/26
Well she was sitting out front. Well next door but either way right by the high way! Poor thing. So had to take her in. She would have nothing to do with a water bottle so gave her a lid of water she only took a sip and turned her nose up at the water. This just after lady today said how she let two bunnies go across the river. She thought she was being kind by setting them free rather than be stuck in a cage all winter. Hoping it's the neighbors. I let them a note. Will tell the paper tomarrow if not and get a found bunny posted. Then if no one claims it sell it I guess.
later that same day Was someone's house bunny it made it's self right at home here. She hasn't eaten yet but doesn't seem dehydrated. She might have drank as she splashed a bit around the box at the store but I didn't see her do it. Over all she looks okay so I'll just let her settle in for now. At least I had a cage to stick her in.
