Titch progress report

 I know it's Sunday Selfies day but its been a funny old week. We had a heat wave which finally broke Friday....still it has been warm the last couple of days. And we have a cold front moving in on Monday night so the temps will drop from the low 70's to around 66 to 68 deg with rain so not so nice.

We found out for Certain that Titch is a girl which in its self isn't a problem just means she will have to be spayed which costs more than a boys neuter. Its £80.00 pounds for a male rabbit to be neutered as a opposed to £120.00 pounds for a female rabbit to be spayed. But there is plenty of time to save the money as we will wait until she is at least 6 months old if not a little bit more.

I weighed her a couple of weeks ago at 911 grams well I didn't get round to weighing her until yesterday and she is now 1050 grams which meant the I had to loosen the fitting of her harness a bit.

As for her harness training well that is going very well. If we go somewhere there are a lot of wild bunnies Titch is much more relaxed, but if we go somewhere with no bunnies she is just a bit more wary...not scared but just a bit more wary. I'm expecting that to lesson the more she goes out and gets use to it but even if she is a little wary at times you can still see she is enjoying the space and freedom of running and leaping about where she pleases.

She met her nanna and grandad today for the first time and showed them how nosey she is which was fun to see. And this week we found out that Titch is a proper Houdini even more so than her predecessors and she has a thing about my plants so fencing is on order to protect my potted plants...I'm not bothered about my veg garden just all the other stuff. Titch is quite happy sneaking of upstairs to explore or going off to the lounge which is not good as it isn't that rabbit proofed and she can get in everywhere!

Extra! Extra! Read All About It!

 Extra! Extra! Read All About It! BREAKING NEWS! 

Titch IS A GIRL!!!! You read it here first, That's right Titch is a girl!!!

I had Titch on my lap yesterday evening giving her a cuddle and as she was calm and comfy I thought I would check to see which sex she was now that she has grown quite a bit and I saw her bits I thought....nope your a girl. It was so clear and easy to see. Seems Hubby was mistaken and was a little put out at having to live with 2 girls. I'm afraid I roared with Laughter as He replied with "So I'm Living with 2 girls" When I told him and I replied "I'm afraid so!"


So there we have it Titch is a girl and we don't care, it really doesn't matter as a home is forever at our House. I always had my doubts on Titch being a boy.....Speedy played a big trick on his dad with this one!

Titch's First Adventure down Speedy's Rabbit Hole!

 Today Titch went out for an Adventure, His First Adventure down Speedy's Rabbit Hole! We have slowly gotten Titch used to wearing a harness, just for short periods of time and has shown he doesn't mind it to much so today we took him to one of the livery fields that we used to take Speedy for adventures. We have been going there for walks with Titch but I have carried him the whole time and he has met all of the horses that live there. The horses used to love Speedy so they were keen to smell Titch in my arms and meet him. Anyway Today we let Titch try exploring in one of the fields for a few minutes and he seemed to enjoy it ,even doing a little binky as he was running about so here are some video clips



Titch wasn't afraid just a little cautious at times but once he got his bearings he went off exploring around half of the field. Now as its Sunday Selfie time here's a couple from in the week...



And while we are at it here's a new video of Bird having Breakfast from yesterday....

Titch's Trip to the Vets!

 Titch had his first trip to the vets yesterday where he had his first Health Check and His first Annual vaccine for Myxomatosis  and Rabbit Viral Hemorrhagic Disease Types 1 and 2.The health check gave Titch a clean bill of health with his weight around the 800 grams.

But The vet was unconvinced on Titch's Sex on being a boy but he wasn't sure either way so we are still for now saying that Titch is a boy but for a definite verdict on Titch's sex we will have to wait a few more weeks to find out for sure. For me its not an issue, would I prefer Titch to be a boy yes because its easier to neuter a boy than Spay a girl but I really don't care at this point on whether Titch is a boy or a girl. Titch is ours and we love him and is here to stay for the rest of his life. In our home a home is forever.

So Welcome to The Adventures of Titch down Speedy's Rabbit Hole!

Weigh day for Titch!

 We decided to make Tuesdays weigh day for Titch. Last week Titch was 688 grams, today when I weighed him he was 808 grams so he has gained 120g in the last week.....Titch is growing fast!

We've also learnt we need to tire Titch out in the day other wise he is very noisy at night and thinks if he is full of energy to play, we need to be too! So yesterday he was out in the garden for a good couple of hours. He was running about all over the place, jumping up in the air and generally trying to get in to mischief. But last night all he wanted to do was sleep, eat, drink water and go toilet and repeat....so no waking me up.


Our new Squirrel feed arrived Sunday and I put it straight out and it looks like the squirrel is using it now. He or she was in the garden this morning when I brought the feeders our, I spooked him or her but Bird was waiting so Bird wanted to eat out of my hand. While that was happening the Squirrel went to come back but saw me so turned around again. But I believe it hung around in the front garden after I left for about an hour or so.


Then yesterday Ann for Zoolatry sent us this a temporary header for the blog until Titch gets bigger and I have more photo's to do a proper one. We think its perfect so it will go on later this week as I may have to adjust it in code to get the size right, Google has made a bit of a glitch which can make it to small when you change the header. But Thank you to Ann she has done a pawsome job as Speedy would say.

Tomorrow Titch is going to the vets for a Health check, re sex him to make sure we are right on him being a boy and to have his first Vaccination.....We will let you all know how that goes.
