Petting Zoo - Easter Style

So, for Easter I was asked to bring a few bunnies over to our church so the kids could see real bunnies and get to pet them.

My dad and I drove over, set up and were greeted by many smiling faces :) Everyone, young and old seemed to get a real kick of seeing real bunnies!

Quite a few children asked, "Is that the Easter bunny?" And multiple parents thanked me for bring the rabbits over and doing it.

I have a feeling I'll be doing it again next year :)  But I don't mind! It was great seeing all the kids happy.

I set up twice, as there were two masses.  The first time I brought over Francis (Velveteen Lop male) and Bubba (Holland Lop male).



Francis did an AMAZING job! The second he felt someone touching him, he stood still and let them pet him as long as they liked :)

Bubba wasn't as good, but he still did a great job.  There was someone shooting nearby, and it was really loud.  That made Bubba a little uneasy, so he thumped and got a little upset.



Because of that, when we came back the second time, I brought Gorman instead of Bubba.



Gorman didn't stay still for much petting as he was super curious! But he did an awesome job! No biting, thumping or lunging :)  He seemed to enjoy all the attention!


So all in all...I say it was a HUGE success! :)
