Regarding #5: There is NO love like love from a bunny. You have to earn it and if you manage that, you've accomplished something real.

I wish I would have known how much bunnies were going to change my life. I started with my first bunny in a tiny cage several years ago. Now we are totally free-roam and I’m in vet school, becoming a rabbit doctor and sharing my passion for bunnies with nearly everyone I meet 🐇🖤

The joy my rabbits brought into my life over the years outweighed the sorrow they left behind when they passed many times over, and despite crying while typing this, I wouldn't change a single thing. Caramel, Dutch, Trixie, Abby, Snoopy, and Tanner, you were loved so much and will always be missed and remembered.

I wish I had known large corporate pet stores do not know bunnies well at all and will sell things bad for bunnies. My Ozzy lived between 6 to 7 years till I lost him to stasis. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt he would have lived longer if I knew not to give him yogurt drops, those sticks with seeds on them, and put him in a cage. All packaging had bunnies on them. Thankfully, the internet knowledge improved and channels like yours exist and my 2 nine year old buns, Sophie and Lulu, are thriving now.

My daughter's first rabbit just passed about a week ago. He was 12 yrs old - and had a very happy bunny life. She took it better than I thought - but it still hit hard when it happened. Definitely something to consider before you get a rabbit.

Lennon baby pics are a highlight of this Our Bun changed our lives - he costs about a car payment every month in vegetables, food, and litter. He requires multiple litter box cleanings a day. Rabbits require an exotic vet (very expensive). I wouldn’t do anything differently (three-plus years later), and probably will ALWAYS have a rabbit moving forward. I hope our Bun lives to be 15!!!!

I had a vet bill of $3.5K once. Two days in the hospital for GI stasis and e.cunniculi.

The craigslist seller told me they were both fixed males. Well, a month later...🐇🐰🐇🐰🐇🐰. But I've learned along the way. Just enjoy the journey!! 👍

I always wanted a free roam bunny and I finally adopted one from a shelter when I was 19. My sweet Bun passed away a couple of months ago, but she was the best bunny I could have asked for. She was so sassy and smart but had a sweet side to her.

We have 2 young buns now and boy did I forget about all the cleaning you have to do when you are teaching them to use the box!

I knew all this before I got my first bunny, and I really need to thank you. You and some other responsible bunny lovers teach me every day how to take care, raise him in a free roam condition, understand and respect my baby... thank you so much!!! Kisses from me and Tobias, from Brazil!

Thank you for your honesty. Many people don’t see the many sides of pet parenting beforehand. And many don’t do the research into what it takes to provide the best life for them. But you offer up firsthand experience in a way that will make us all better pet parents. Also, in my experience, the pain of loss is like a badge of honor for having gotten to share the joy of their lives.

Your channel has taught me so much!!!! I love my bonded bunnies! I adopted them from a shelter and they were already fixed and bonded! Sending love to you and lennon!! ❤️

I was fortunate to have one rabbit who lived to be at least 11 years old (he was a rescue, so we didn't know his exact age). When he reached around 9 we started saying we were in bonus time -- a positive way of saying "who knows how much time we have left, so let's cherish each day." I, too, wish I had known earlier how much more fun it is, and healthier for the bunnies, to have a bonded pair. Over the years we've had three wonderful pairs!

[ronaldmcdonald]

I have absolutely no regrets in getting my bunnies, their fur was soft and my first one was SO tame! She used to snuggle up to me in my bed when I was a child and sleep with me! My second rabbit was so beautiful, her fur was soft and sleek and she was all metallic and lovely!

[TracyLynnAP]

How different each rabbit personality is. Between my own and the ones I've interacted with at the humane society, I was shocked at how different each bunn is. I have noticed more of a difference between different rabbits than with cats and dogs.

I’m growing to truly love u and Lennon and can’t get enough of ur videos…ur honesty and genuine words are so meaningful!! Just adopted a stray bunny and I’m so in love with her and ur videos have helped us both so much, thank you!

[tanyaroberson]

You've been such a great influence to people with bunnies! Thank you!

[NanicaX]

I wish I had known to get a bonded pair, since the bonding can be such a challenge unless you're lucky. We now have 2 but they are not bonded yet, but we are working on it!
Also I wish I knew how much work bunny proofing can be! We have a lot of open shelfs that our bunnies would love to jump into, and climb even higher so it's not enough to just have stuff off the floor. The bunnies will get on sofa table, selfs, radiators, sofa, and try to get even higher if possible. They can also fit into many tiny places, so blocking everything is hard work! In the future we at least know to buy furniture that fits bunny life!
But I love my bunnies and I will figure it all out!

The video of you and Lennon traveling to the retro camper was so cool. It would be awesome to see something like that again!! ❤

[amayakohli]

I've been just waiting for this video! thanks so much!

[wynnezeigler]

I didn't realize how much work my bunny was going to be, because when I first got my bunny I was really horrible at telling myself when it was time to clean up. That isn't a problem anymore though. I really love your videos Lorelei! You are my idol and I wouldn't be the good bun parent I am today without you and Lennon. Thank you for putting out these amazing videos, and I can't wait until the next video!
