RABBIT NOTES
This came in my email today from Mary Cvetan, president of the Pittsburgh House Rabbit Club:
In September 2004, Hurricane Frances spawned powerful storms all the way up
the East Coast. One of those storms flooded several towns in Pittsburgh,
including Millvale, Etna and Shaler. Three rabbits were found roaming near
the Millvale floodwaters. The male was named Ivan; the females, both
pregnant, were given the names Louise and Frances. A few days later, Frances
gave birth to Ariel, Kate, Cordelia and Truman.
The following summer, July 2005, Animal Friends Humane Agents rescued a
family of rabbits from a field in South Park: parents Lucinda and Elliot
and their babies, Elmer, Esteban, Hermoine and Evelynn.
Months passed, then years.
Eventually, Truman and Evelynn met during the Bun Runs at Animal Friends.
They flirted. They romanced. They seemed, to all observers, to be quite
infatuated with each other.
And today,
a few hours ago,
THEY GOT ADOPTED!
WOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOO!!
They are going to their new home TOGETHER with a couple who just lost their
10-year-old bunny.
The Bun Runs will just not be the same without "T is for Trouble," but I'm
sure those of you who know Truman will be celebrating this wonderful news
too.
Yay!
Yay for the Bun Runs and the rabbit volunteers and for Truman and Evelynn!
