Bunny Loving

They say a dog is "man's best friend". But what about us females?! 

For most of us young and aspiring women, the notion of being a "stay at home" housewife / dog minder whilst the man is at work is slowly but surely becoming a rather unappealing dream.

Don't get me wrong - yes, most do still have a certain "knack" for nurturing various beings (as do men), but how does one channel such energies in the modern day?

The answer - rabbits. 

Although many "young people" associate the furry friend with the empire created by a certain 80-something-year-old-in-a-robe *cough* Playboy *cough*; bunny rabbits do still have that loving quality that predates the rise of the industry. Furthermore, they are perfect for those who work (Rabbits are able to entertain themselves for much of the time) yet they still need that bit o' loving (which can be scheduled into one's busy schedule via blackberry or iPhone).

A prime example of how to introduce the furry friend into one's life is simple, shown by my recent purchase.

My mother, a full time worker, was in need of something to look after once my brother and I left home. 

My solution - a bunny rabbit.

So, on her birthday I purchased the rabbit (now called Toffee) and my mother's need to nurture has been fulfilled.

For those who are a) not in full time work b) not a mother and c) male, the rabbit is also an acceptable choice.

Reasons being a) no love is enough love, so you can always find something to do with the bunny

b) these are perfect pets for student housing for the reason they are easy to look after and entertaining

c) men too have a nurturing quality. just less stereotypically so.

On that note. Please remember bunny's are for life not for Christmas, Chanukah or any other reasonably religious event.
