Blossom3 has experience with male lionhead bunnies. We adopted two, named Peanut and Gizmo, from my cousins in Wisconsin. It was a long trip for them via Grandma's vehicle, but I was delighted to surprise the Blossoms with those bunnies. Peanut and Gizmo have been wonderful little rabbits for the younger Blossoms, receiving loads of attention and love. Because of her sweet relationship with Peanut and Gizmo, Blossom3 decided that she really wanted a female lionhead bunny. So, she started praying.... about six months ago.
The Rugged Mountain Man and I discussed it and decided that we'd okay it. We looked at shows and kept coming up empty. No female lionhead bunnies.
But Blossom3 just kept praying. She had faith, so much so that she decided to name her new bunny "Hope" once she had it. She talked about Hope. She wrote stories about Hope's adventures.
Last week, an email was forwarded to me through two friends, letting me know that a young couple needed to find a loving home for their bunny, so they could move to another country to do mission work. I opened the email doubtfully, because folks often try to unload unwanted rabbits on micro-farmers. My jaw dropped when I saw that it was a well-loved, young female lionhead being given to a caring home.
We eventually connected with this neat young couple and Puffin came to live here today,
after hours of Blossoms looking out the window, waiting by the window and wailing,
"When is she gonna be here????"
"How much longer?????"
She now touts a slightly fancier name.
The amazing God we serve answered a little girl's prayer.
Welcome, Puffin!
